Sin corrupts even our good deeds. We injure our shoulder trying to pat ourselves on the back.
D. A. CarsonSin defies God, utterly corrupts each individual, corrodes all social relationships, and issues in death.
D. A. CarsonWhen Christians speak of the authority of Scripture, because Christians believe that this word, even though it's mediated through many different human authors, nevertheless is God breathed and is revealed by God and is utterly reliable and all that it says, with all of its different literary genres, it's trustworthy and without mistake or distortion. It is trustworthy and therefore, because it is from God it has God's authority.
