Why is divine authorial intent so important for biblical interpretation? New Credo video with Peter Williams

Why can we be more certain about God intended by a passage than what a human author intended by a passage? Did the human author always know the full significance of what he was writing? Should we limit ourselves to the Old Testament when seeking to understand a given Old Testament text?

In this new Credo video, Peter Williams explains the vital importance of divine authorial intent for biblical interpretation. Watch other videos like this one on the Credo Video page.
