In this work, the author assesses the nature of scriptural authority, contending that while natural and revealed religion may coexist, the Bible alone holds supreme authority in matters of faith. The author concedes that God could have revealed his will without a written text and that the oral tradition of the apostles may hold divine truth. These concessions, however, are qualified by a careful examination of the Bible's own claims to inspiration and authority. The author probes whether there is evidence of unwritten apostolic traditions that hold equal weight to Scripture, concluding that such traditions do not exist. The author's insights illuminate the historical and theological context of scriptural authority, offering a nuanced perspective on the relationship between Scripture, tradition, and the individual's role in interpreting the divine word.
