Excerpt from The Sovereign Authority of the Holy Scriptures: In Answer to the Publication of the Revd. P. M. M., Inserted in the Canadien and the Journal De Quebec From 25th June to 1st July 1843, Against the Law of God as the Christian Rule of Faith and Practice
Our adversaries, to shield themselves against Scripture, have recourse to the Church, which, however, they openly belie; inasmuch, as they pretend having received from the Church the' Canonical books, and yet respecting the number of those Books, they plainly contradict the whole ancient Church, both of the Old and New Testaments.
The Church of the Old Testament never received, nor herd, as of Divine Inspiration, the books of Tobit, Judith, the Wis dom, Ecclesiasticus, Maccabees, &c.
And the Church of the New Testament; Jesus Christ and his Apostles, never made use of them, or cited them, as authorities.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book presents a compelling argument for the preeminence of the Bible as the sole authority for Christian faith and practice, challenging the Roman Catholic Church's claim that its traditions hold equal weight. The author contends that the Bible is not a mere collection of stories but a divinely inspired and perfect guide for salvation, containing all that is necessary for individuals to know and do in order to reach heaven. By examining the teachings of Jesus and the apostles, the author demonstrates that Scripture alone provides the standard for Christian belief and conduct, and argues against the notion that the Church has the authority to interpret or add to the Bible's teachings. This book is a must-read for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of the role of the Bible in Christianity and the importance of relying solely on its teachings for spiritual guidance and eternal salvation.
