Holy Scripture stands as the sure guide to salvation, authored by God and proven worthy by its history.

In this sermon, the author argues that the Old Testament and the New Testament together reveal God, His will, and the path to eternal life. It asserts that Scripture, inspired by God, is sufficient to make a person wise for salvation through faith in Christ and to guide faithful living. The text also discusses how different beliefs have shaped trust in Scripture and cautions against equating human reasoning with divine revelation.

Understand why the Scriptures are presented as God’s own words and the source of wisdom for salvation.
See how the writer uses examples from Hebrew history to show Scripture’s power to guide belief and conduct.
Explore debates about how church authority and tradition relate to the authority of Scripture.
Learn about the implied connections between faith, doctrine, and daily religious practice.

Ideal for readers of early modern sermons and works on biblical authority, this edition helps clarify the stakes of Scripture in faith and life.
