Description:One of the principal confessions of the Protestant Reformation was sola Scriptura — Scripture alone is the final, infallible authority for the church. For centuries, however, Roman Catholicism has denied this principle, positing church tradition as an equal, if not higher authority.In this book, Puritan William Whitaker forcefully and effectively deals with objections to the doctrine of sola Scriptura. He addresses issues such as the number of books in the canon, authentic versions of the Bible, as well as Scripture’s authority, clarity, interpretation, and perfection. Many have said that Whitaker so greatly defended the Protestant position that “he cut off the head of his antagonist with his own weapons.”"Whereas, therefore, no one may say that any infirmity could befall the Holy Spirit, it follows that the sacred writers could not be deceived, or err, in any respect. Here, then, it becomes us to be so scrupulous as not to allow that any such slip can be found in scripture ... it is the special prerogative of scripture, that it never errs" (Disputations on Holy Scripture, pp. 37, 40)."Since the Reformation only a few godly servants of the truth have invested the time and effort necessary to produce for God's people a full-orbed defense of Scriptureal sufficiency againt those who would subject Scripture to external authorities. William Whitaker was one of those servants, and his work should be carefully studied by all concerned shepherds of Christ's flock."We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
