Abstract
AbstractIn this paper we will study the way in which Scriptural revelation authority is sustained in the work of John Locke. First, we will show the recurrence and centrality of the Scriptural reference as a source of moral authority. Second, we will analyze the articulation proposed between revelation and reason. Finally, we will consider the coherence between the validity of rationalistic empiricism in the Lockean epistemology and the acceptation of a revelation’s undemonstrative proof in an empiric-rational way, supported on the divine provenance validated by the existence of miracles.Keywords: Locke, Reason, faith, Scriptures, Latitudinarianism, Skepticism.

Summary
Aún cuando las Escrituras constituyen, por sí mismas una fuente infalible, y dan cuenta de la palabra de Dios, veremos que la apelación a su autoridad requiere sin embargo de interpretación, justificación y pruebas por parte de la razón 10.
