Whatever perfection there seems to be in our art of reasoning, it is to be subject to the Holy Ghost in the Scripture.

[ReformedTheo @Calvinist27]

God, who at various times and in various ways spoke in time past to the fathers by the prophets, has in these last days spoken to us by His Son, whom He has appointed heir of all things, through whom also He made the worlds; who being the brightness of His glory and the express image of His person, and upholding all things by the word of His power, when He had by Himself purged our sins, sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high, having become so much better than the angels, as He has by inheritance obtained a more excellent name than they.
— Hebrews 1:1-4

When Christ teaches, he makes us obey. Others may instruct, but cannot command obedience: they teach to be humble, but men remain proud.

Heidelberg Catechism

Q1: What is your only comfort in life and death?

That I am not my own, but belong with body and soul, both in life and in death,to my faithful Savior Jesus Christ.He has fully paid for all my sins with His precious blood, and has set me free from all the power of the devil.He also preserves me in such a way that without the will of my heavenly Father not a hair can fall from my head; indeed, all things must work together for my salvation. Therefore, by His Holy Spirit He also assures me of eternal life and makes me heartily willing and ready from now on to live for Him.

[George Whitefield @WhitefieldG]

I care not what I suffer, so that some may be brought home to Christ.
