Hello,
I'm currently in a conversation on FB with a protestant preacher who preaches at local universities and public parks etc in our area.
He just asked me after I explained to him how the Word of God is a person, Jesus Christ, not ink on paper, and how the ink on paper needs to be interpretedl, and that the Church came before the Bible (a lot more was said, but this is just a summary)
he responded by saying "I know Jesus is the Word of God" nvm he said a couple of posts before that that Bible is the Word of God, then he asked me by what authority do I make my claims.
I'm thinking of responding by asking him "by what authority do you claim the books of the New Testament are Scripture?"
I'm curious what you guys would say
