The Church v2 5 The Only Source of Divine Authority Today 2
Many who claim to follow the Bible as their authority today fail to understand that Jesus final and complete will has been communicated in the New Testament by His apostles and other inspired men. While on earth, Jesus spoke His teaching to His apostles. Before He died, he promised His apostles the Holy Spirit would guide them into all truth. The Holy Spirit directly gave the apostles the teaching of Jesus and the power not only to speak and write it but also to perform miracles confirming it was the Word of God. The New Testament is God’s final complete and all-sufficient source of authority for us today. Therefore, we reject those who believe in continuing revelation and miracles today. Let us earnestly search His Word, the apostles’ teaching to learn and obey His will to His glory.
