“I am God Almighty; walk before me, and be blameless.
And I will make my covenant between me and you, and will make you exceedingly numerous.”

“Get behind me, Satan! For you are setting your mind not on divine things but on human things.”

Scripture, Tradition, Reason
We recognize the importance of tradition and reason in seeking to understand what it is that Scripture is saying.
We do not put reason or tradition over Scripture since it is the ultimate authority.
