• Thompson expounds Luther's teaching on the clarity of scripture, and that we have been told everything we need to know. The difficult passages do not hinder the whole of scripture. He shows that we can clarify scripture with scripture. Thompson outlines Luther's arguments that : 1. All teaching must be tested by scripture 2. Placed engagement in the Bible within a greater spiritual context Thompson expounds Bellarmino's response to the Reformation, and Whitaker's response to him. Thompson highlights Whitaker's actions in encouraging all believers to read the bible for themselves. Thompson explores the relationship between Christian doctrine and Christian living, and shows that this issue is just as significant in the 21st century. He stresses that scripture is how God communicates with us and allows God to draw near to us as this is how we know Jesus, and thus the Father. Talk is followed by questions.
