Cyril & Matt Tagteam - Peter at the Jerusalem Council - Acts 15

“One of them is making sure we get counsel. There's many voices that we trust to speak into our lives. Instead of just going ahead blindly, making sure we have good, Godly people around us to give us some wise counsel, and also to make sure that the guiding factor in all wisdom isn't just necessarily strategic, statistical type of analysis, although those are also very helpful to use all at your disposal. But the ultimate guidance of a wisdom model is still scripture, which was spoken by the Spirit, and yet, when we read scripture, we must be very careful when we're making decisions. … Well, maybe we need to look into scripture deeper and recognize that the voice of God in the scripture is always consistent. … And to guide all our decisions by scripture is the most wise course of action, and so whenever you make an action, one of the questions you ask yourself, does scripture sanction this? Does scripture allow for this?”
