Ep #1| Talking Canonical Theology: Is Sola Scriptura Biblical?

In this episode of John Peckham's YouTube channel, "Knowing God with John Peckham," the focus is on Canonical Theology, where John and Gio explore the critical role of the biblical canon in theological discourse. They discuss the definition of the canon—differentiating between a list of authoritative books versus an authoritative list—and its implications for the authority of Scripture. The conversation also delves into how Jesus exemplified the use of Scriptures to validate theological tenets, highlighting the importance of aligning Christian beliefs and practices with canonical theology. Topics such as the relationship between canonical theology and church doctrine, the principle of sola scriptura, and responses to common criticisms like accusations of circular reasoning and excessive pluralism are thoroughly examined. John emphasizes the Holy Spirit's crucial role in scripture interpretation, advocating for a continual pursuit of spiritual discernment in understanding the Bible. The discussion underscores the adaptability of canonical theology, promoting a dynamic faith that remains receptive to scriptural elucidation and correction. Additionally, the episode previews John's upcoming book, "Why We Pray," which elucidates his methodological approach to theological subjects within a canonical context. The episode wraps up by reinforcing the foundational importance of Scripture in the Christian life, advocating for a deep reliance on God's word as the ultimate sustenance and directive for believers.
