Notes//Quotes:

2 Peter 1:16-21

I have seen the face of Jesus— Tell me not of aught beside;
I have heard the voice of Jesus—All my soul is satisfied.
In the radiance of the glory, First I saw His blessed face,
And forever shall that glory Be my home, my dwelling-place.

2 Tim 3:16-17

The value of inspiration emerges, as twofold. It gives to the books written under its bearing a quality which is truly superhuman; a trustworthiness, an authority, a searchingness, a profundity, a profitableness which is altogether Divine. And it speaks this Divine word immediately to each reader’s heart and conscience; so that he does not require to make his way to God, painfully, perhaps even uncertainly, through the words of His servants, the human instruments in writing the Scriptures, but can listen directly to the Divine voice itself speaking immediately in the Scriptural word to him. BB Warfield

“We read scripture in order to be refreshed in our memory and understanding of the story within which we ourselves are actors, to be reminded where it has come from and where it is going to, and hence what our own part within it ought to be.” - NT Wright, Scripture and the Authority of God
