Puritan Board Junior
Rupert of Deutz (1075-1129): Whatever may be arrived at, or concluded from arguments, outside of that Holy Scripture . . . does in no way belong to the praise and confession of almighty God. . . . Whatever may be arrived at outside of the rule of the Holy Scriptures, nobody can lawfully demand from a Catholic. . . . With his help let us strive not to fall under the condemnation incurred by the devil. For Almighty God would not free us: he can or will do nothing contrary to the truth of the Scriptures. For translation, see George H. Tavard, Holy Writ or Holy Church: The Crisis of the Protestant Reformation (London: Burns & Oates, 1959), p. 13. (The ellipses are Tarvard’s). Cf. De omnipotentia Dei, Caput XXVII, PL 170:477-478.
