John Murray on Scripture

“We do well to peruse our great catechisms and creeds and textbooks and not be carried away by the pedagogical mush to which we are in these days subjected.  But if we rely upon such a reservoir of knowledge we are in a dangerous and slippery position.  Thought and life are too complex to be adequately met by any such reservoir.  The means God has provided for every exigency that may arise is the Word of God itself.”
