Join the show with a TEXT here! In episode 1 we looked at some objections to the clarity of scripture as well the effectiveness of the spirit in guiding us as well as some other examples of its clarity. Today we double down as we look at what scripture is, how it functions and why its authoritative. Jesus has a view of scripture we should reflect and my hope is after this episode you are encouraged to imitate that. Comment any questions you have and enjoy the episode!
