Scriptures, our sole authority

As I reflect upon this semester, the thought that continues to appear in my mind is the importance of Sola Scriptura. Sure, I knew that the Bible was powerful and that we could apply it to all of our lives, but throughout the class, the matter of the regulative principle has greatly impressed on me the importance of Scripture alone, in worship, in prayer, in preaching, and all of life. God's Word alone has the power to change people. We must be daily devoted to studying His Word and enjoying Him in the process. Our focus should be on knowing and enjoying God rather than merely doing a good work or a duty. Glorifying God must be our sole passion and the only instruction on how to accomplish that is found in the Scriptures alone. So let us be a people who look to the Scriptures for instruction in every area of life. let us live Sola Scriptura.
