The Holy Spirit has born a miraculously unanimous witness to the same twenty-seven books of the New Testament throughout a confessing Christendom, and the Holy Spirit has born a miraculously unanimous wit-ness to a common fundamental creed throughout this same Christendom.

The Holy Spirit bears witness corporately to the canon; He also bears witness corporately to the essential truths of Christianity-the rule of faith. (The Shape Of Sola Scriptura, Keith A. Mathison, Reformed Protestant, 2001, p 321) "although Scripture is the sole infallible authority, it must be interpreted by the Church within the boundaries of the ancient rule of faith or regula fidei.
