Excerpt from The Normative Use of Scripture by Typical Theologians of Protestant Orthodoxy in Great Britain and America: A Dissertation Submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate Divinity School in Candidacy for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Department of Systematic Theology)
The claim is confidently made that the theology of the various orthodox writers is faithfully constructed with reference to the formal principle of Protestantism, namely, the sole authority of Scripture. It purports to be simply the objective presentation of the system of religious truth contained in the Bible and constituting the Christian revelation. We desire to know whether this claim is true to fact. If so, we wish to see how it is so. If not, we wish to see why not.

This inquiry will seek to ascertain what part the Scriptures have actually played in determining the form and content of the several theological systems now current among the orthodox Protestant communions of Great Britain and America. Although it will, of course, be impossible to exhibit in detail the theological usage of Scripture in the case of any large number of theologians, we shall try to make our selections truly representative and of sufficient breadth to guarantee an adequate induction.
The claim is confidently made that the theology of the various orthodox writers is faithfully constructed with reference to the formal principle of Protestantism, namely, the sole authority of Scripture. It purports to be simply the objective presentation of the system of religious truth contained in the Bible and constituting the Christian revelation. We desire to know whether this claim is true to fact. If so, we wish to see how it is so. If not, we wish to see why not.
Since the inquiry is purely historical and objective, it will be well in the outset to sketch briefly the development which has set for us our problem. In the beginning of Christian thought there was, of course, no distinctively Christian literature to serve as an authoritative doctrinal standard.
