Top Highlights

“Reformers taught instead that the Bible judges tradition, church, and the pope” (source)

“The Bible is interpreted by the tradition of the church” (source)

“Scholars speak of the Old and New Testament books as belonging to the canon of Scripture. The word canon comes from the Greek word kanon, which referred to a reed or cane used as a measuring rod. The canon is thus the ‘measuring rod’ or standard we use to judge a work’s inspiration, authenticity, and veracity.” (source)

“The remarkable credentials of the Bible do not mean that it is true, but they do mean that it deserves serious consideration. Any sincere seeker after truth should look into this book for answers to the ultimate questions of existence.” (source)

“We could almost say that the universe bears the ‘signature’ of God.” (source)
