Do We Need Calvin, etc. to Interpret the Scriptures?

Nov 10, 2026  •  Pete Whitney, Philip Ryan

Do we need pastors to interpret Scripture for us? Do you rely on previous interpretations of Scripture from earlier Christians (Luther, Calvin, Knox, etc)? Do you disagree with any positions previously taken by these pastors and how do you reach that conclusion? Also, if Calvin, Luther, Augustine, Edwards, and Spurgeon all had to share a church building, what do you think their first disagreement would be?
