~/christian-local-questionThe canon-circle is genuine but local to Christian disputes about the church and the New Testament. Treating it as the universal problem of scriptural authority hides older Jewish questions: how inherited Torah, interpretive tradition, legal procedure, and communal practice authorize one another without requiring either scripture-alone or an infallible ecclesial list.
~/infallible-listOnly an infallible authority can make a list certain rather than merely probable. Absent that, the Protestant holds a fallible collection of infallible books — Sproul's own concession — which cannot function as an unnormed norm, since it is normed by whatever historical judgment produced it.
