How do we know the doctrine of Scripture's authority is true?

Answered in 4 sources

Scripture's authority is affirmed through its origin; it was given by God through holy men inspired by the Holy Spirit (2 Peter 1:20-21).

The doctrine of Scripture's authority is foundational in Reformed theology, rooted in the belief that the Bible is divinely inspired. In 2 Peter 1:20-21, it is stated that no prophecy came by the will of man, but holy men spoke as they were moved by the Holy Spirit. This belief underscores the origin of Scripture as God's communication to humanity, granting it ultimate authority over doctrine and practice in the Christian faith.
