unbiblical and unchristian humanistic ideas. God set forth the standard for “accountable leadership” in Christ’s church quite clearly in the bible.

Basically‚ it is how the world is looked at through the bible. To many Christians‚ the bible is used as a guide to how life is supposed to be lived daily. In Roman 1-8 Paul is sharing the great news of salvation through Jesus Christ. My view is that with Christ anything is possible‚ just have faith and believe in God.

Sola Scriptura “Sola Scriptura” is the belief that everything should be measured by the Bible – that the Bible should be the deciding factor for what we believe in and how we live our lives‚.
