This is why the authority of the Church is so important in recognising the truth.

There are of course problems with establishing both what is the church and possibly what does the church teach but being confessional it is rather easier for us reformed folk than most.

The important fact is that we are not alone in being lead to the truth but we have the church to guide and teach us.

It is so sad that much of the church has abdicated this responsibility.
