First Principles Of The Oracles Of God<br />

<strong>Lesson</strong> 6<br />

The Authority of The Apostles<br />

There are some who contend we only need the words of Jesus (the “red letter” followers). Yes, we need<br />

His words, but we also need the truths taught by His apostles. Jesus always taught truth, but we need to<br />

understand He didn’t personally teach all the truth during His 3-year ministry while He was on the earth.<br />

� Jesus didn’t personally tell the apostles everything (Jn. 16:12)<br />

- why not?<br />

� how was this “deficiency” later resolved?<br />

- Jn. 14:25-26<br />

- Jn. 15:26<br />

- Jn. 16:7-11, 13<br />

- Jn. 17:8, 14<br />

� what later “process” was Jesus referencing? (1 Cor. 2:1-13)<br />

� what should result from this “process”? (Eph. 3:1-5)<br />

- how does this relate to our previous lesson on the 2 covenants?<br />

Questions<br />
