Sola Scriptura: A Lamp in the Dark
Feb 26, 2026 • Stanton Petersen
Have you ever tried to navigate a completely unfamiliar, pitch-black dark room? You move slowly, arms outstretched, bracing yourself to stub a toe or trip over a rug. You’re guessing where the furniture is based on your "intuition," but intuition is a poor substitute for sight. In the dark, you don't need a lecture on the philosophy of light; you just need someone to flick the switch. Many of us live our spiritual lives like that, stumbling through difficult decisions, grief, or cultural confusion, hoping our "gut feeling intuition" is enough to get us through. But the Apostle Peter tells us we don't have to stumble. God hasn't left us in the dark; He has given us a lamp that never runs out of oil.
