Didaché - Sufficiency of Scripture Summit

About this sermon

Ask almost any evangelical pastor whether Scripture is authoritative, inspired, and inerrant, and you'll get a yes on all three. Ask about its sufficiency, and the confidence tends to evaporate — and that, Justin Peters argues, is exactly where the battle is being fought and lost today. Peters welcomes back Dr. Abner Chou, president of The Master's University, to discuss the Sufficiency Summit, coming November 6–7 at Grace Community Church in Sun Valley, California, where a statement modeled on the Chicago Statement on Inerrancy is being prepared. Chou lays out how sufficiency differs from inspiration and inerrancy: Scripture is the final word on everything it touches, everything for life and godliness, as 2 Peter 1 puts it. From there they name the fronts where sufficiency is under attack — the charismatic movement, which Justin says is a de facto rejection of sufficiency by elevating experience alongside Scripture; Roman Catholicism and the magisterium; seeker-sensitive, market-driven churches (Craig Groeschel's Life.church movie sermon series gets shown on screen); psychology dressed up as biblical counseling; and the deliberate omission of sufficiency from the 2000 Baptist Faith and Message. The pattern is always a loophole — something else gets to speak, or a category is declared off-limits to Scripture. This episode matters because closing that loophole is how a generation keeps the truth instead of losing it.
