To that I would add what Christ Himself said in John 6:45:

“It is written in the Prophets, ‘And they will all be taught by God.’ Everyone who has heard and learned from the Father comes to me—”

Those that come to Christ are taught by God the Father, not by the unholy potentate on his Roman throne, not by the magisterium, not by bishops or priests.

Once an individual relies on Jesus to instruct them, and stays close to His Word as ‘his authority of what truth is or not’....one cannot hardly imagine taking mans Word over the wealth of truth He reveals to us in His Word, and the intimate relationship He builds with us as we seek to know Him better and love Him more.
