This statement needs no help from me. So without further ado:
“To ask us to set aside ‘external authority’ and throw ourselves back on what we can find within us alone - call it by whatever name you choose, ‘religious experience,’ ‘the Christian consciousness,’ ‘the inner light,’ ‘the immanent Divine’ - is to ask us to discard Christianity and revert to natural religion.” B.B. Warfield
This is why I am a cessationist. This is why I reject anything other than Scripture that claims to impart spiritual truth.
Well put. By you, and by Warfield.
