Scripture is so framed, as to deliver all things necessary to salvation in a clear and perspicuous way. There are indeed some obscure passages in it to exercise our understandings, and prevent our loathing of overmuch plainness and simplicity: yet whatsoever is needful for us to satisfy hunger, and nourish our souls to life eternal, is so expressed (I do not say that it may be understood, but so) as men that do not wilfully shut their eyes against the light cannot possibly but understand it.
John Arrowsmith — Armilla Catechetica: A Chain of Principles (exercitation on Scripture's clarity regarding things necessary to salvation)
