In this episode of Catechizing Conversations, Cisco Victa and Drew Brackbill continue their study of the Westminster Standards by focusing on Westminster Shorter Catechism Q.2 and Chapter 1 of the Westminster Confession of Faith.
They explore why Scripture is the only rule to direct us how to glorify and enjoy God, clarifying the Reformed doctrine of sola Scriptura. The conversation addresses the role of church tradition, contrasts Protestant and Roman Catholic views of authority and canon, and explains how the Holy Spirit bears witness to Scripture’s divine authority.
They also discuss the self-authenticating nature of Scripture, the perspicuity (clarity) of the Bible in matters necessary for salvation, and the responsibility of every believer to test teaching by God’s Word—like the Bereans in Acts 17. The episode concludes with practical encouragement to approach Scripture prayerfully, trusting the Spirit to illuminate the gospel through the written Word.
