“Here is rock: all else is sand,” was J.C. Ryle’s description of the Bible in the 18th century.
Whether the challenge has been tradition or reason, or experience in more recent times, the Scriptures are still supreme today, God-breathed, reliable and trumping all other authorities.
Yet the supremacy of Scripture is not some dictate imposed by a faceless despot. Far from it! Scripture’s words are those of Jesus, the Good Shepherd, who laid down his life for his people.

“Tim Chester has provided a clear and concise treatment of an important subject—the supremacy of God’s Word. He faithfully demonstrates that the Bible is indeed God’s voice—that which ‘goes out from his mouth’ (Isa. 55:11). As such, it bridges the expanse between Creator and creature, heaven and earth, invisible and visible. Here is an encouraging reminder for us to listen to the Bible as if we heard God speaking to us from heaven, rejoicing like those who find ‘great spoil’ (Ps. 119:162).”
