The Holy Scripture is the Supreme Judge

The supreme judge, by which all controversies of religion are to be determined, and by which must be examined all decrees of councils, opinions of ancient writers, and doctrines of men and private spirits can be no other than the Holy Scripture, delivered by the Spirit. And in the sentence [= judgment] of Scripture we are to rest, for it is in Scripture, delivered by the Spirit, that our faith is finally resolved.

Matt 22:29
But Jesus answered them, “You are wrong, because you know neither the Scriptures nor the power of God.
2 Pet 1:20-21
20 knowing this first of all, that no prophecy of Scripture comes from someone's own interpretation. 21 For no prophecy was ever produced by the will of man, but men spoke from God as they were carried along by the Holy Spirit.
