We are most fortunate to be under the authority of Scripture

According to whose interpretation? That of the Lutherans, Presbyterians, Reformed, Episcopal, Baptist, Pietsts, Menonites, Shakers, Puritans, Amish, Charismatics, Methodist, Assemblies of God, Mormons, Jehovah's Witnesses, Four Square, Christ of Christ, Unitarian, etc. etc.???

They all claim to be under the authority of Scripture, but they all disagree with each other. So who is really under the authority of Scripture?

So who is really under the authority of Scripture?

Well, some must be because God tells us He will not lose any of His sheep and that He will bring them safely home.

Men are known by their fruits. I prefer the fruit of the Reformed faith which, to me, is most faithful to Scripture and most clearly articulates God's revelation of Himself and reassures us most mercifully of our acquittal before God by the finished work of Jesus Christ upon the cross.

All who believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God and our personal savior are the body of Christ, the Church. I am so disheartened by this thread and all of the pure antagonism that I am nearly sick. What a witness this kind of thing is for non believers. They would want nothing to do with any of us.
