— The issue is not denomination, but authority.
📖 Summary
The Bible contains one truth, but churches differ because of how they treat the Bible.
The most biblical interpretation is not the one that fits tradition, emotion, or experience,
but the one that lets Scripture interpret Scripture under the authority of God’s Word alone.
1️⃣ Biblical Foundation
📘 2 Timothy 3:16–17 (ESV) — All Scripture is God-breathed and sufficient for every good work.
📘 2 Peter 1:20–21 (ESV) — No prophecy comes from one’s own interpretation.
📘 John 17:17 (ESV) — “Your word is truth.”
2️⃣ Theological Insight
📜 John MacArthur — Biblical Doctrine
“The most biblical theology begins and ends with Scripture as the final authority.”
📜 R.C. Sproul — Scripture Alone
“Deny the sufficiency of Scripture, and the church loses its compass.”
📜 John Piper — Desiring God
“The Bible is not a subject of theology—it is the sovereign voice over it.”
📜 J.I. Packer — Fundamentalism and the Word of God
“Tradition helps us, but when it overrules the Word, it ceases to be evangelical.”
📜 D.A. Carson — The Gagging of God
“Diversity in interpretation is permissible, but denial of Christ-centered truth is not.”

5️⃣ Conclusion | No Denomination Owns Truth—Only God’s Word Does
There is no “most biblical denomination,”
but there are churches that humbly submit to the Word.
God saves not denominations, but people who submit to His truth.
“God does not save denominations.
He saves those who cling to His Word.” — Revito
