2 Timothy 3:14-17
The Bible is true; and it is enough.
Teaching - how to think right
reproof - how not to think wrong
Correction - how not to act wrong
training in righteousness - how to act right
Four levels of scripture
1. Doctrine - the truth of God
2. Righteousness - the will of God
3. Methodology - the ways of God
4. Jurisdiction - the call of God
The Jurisdiction Principle
When a larger jurisdiction usurps responsibility from a lesser jurisdiction
1. the crisis will not be solved
2. the proper jurisdiction is robbed of motivation, time. and resources to do the job
3 theological foundations
1. the sufficiency of scripture
2. the doctrine of jurisdiction
3. the patterns and commands for the early church. given to us by God in the Bible, sre to be followed by us today
