How do we do that? Well there are two possibilities. You could defend Scripture from outside Scripture, then you would make human reason the ultimate determiner of Scriptures truth. Far better to let Scripture defend itself and then you let Scripture be the ultimate determiner of its own veracity.And there is where the rubber meets the road ... Scripture MUST define scripture ... to do otherwise is simply opening oneself to error ..even apostasy , heresy
let God Himself tell us what it means

Thanks for the ping!
>>And any faithful, diligent exercise in studying Scripture will yield the fact that this is truly the Word of God, we let Scripture speak for itself, not trying to defend Scripture from outside Scripture, but from inside Scripture. Let God speak in defense of the Word which He has written.<<
The ONLY way to study scripture! The study of scripture with the guidance of the Holy Spirit. I have found that those who do not believe the sufficiency of scripture either have injected or will inject man's logic or interests which always leads to error.
