John quoted Barth as saying: > More than anything else placed in the church, > the biblical record is the successor to the apostles.
Fair points about Barth's respect for the Bible, but he did miss it a little with this statement, in my opinion. The apostles were and are the successors to the Biblical record, not the other way around. Matthew 11:12-13 (12) And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffereth violence, and the violent take it by force. (13) For all the prophets and the law prophesied until John. Peace be with you.
