Is the Bible the Only Authority for Christians?

Episode 4 Show Notes

From the Show

Is't it wonderful to know that even when you fail to triumph over each and every sin in your life, to know Christ has trodden those sins under his feet? He has borne them. And when Satan comes to accuse you of those sins, you say "Yup, you're right. That's what I did and that's what I still am by nature. But I point away from myself to Christ. Go talk to him. He's my mediator!" —Michael Horton
