Subject: Sola Scriptura-A False teaching |
Bible Note: gbennett, Why the sudden attack on Sola Scriptura in this forum? What is the alternative authority or additional authority you are offering. If it is the Catholic Church, then you have a problem based on your other posts on this forum. Understand, I am a Catholic myself and hold to Catholic teaching on Scripture, Apostolic Tradition and the Magesterium of the Church. Do you identify yourself as a Catholic? If so many of your posts display positions that are incompatible with Catholic teaching. I have read your other posts and many of them do not reflect Catholic doctrine; such as your posts on the Goddess in Scripture and your apparent rejection of church teaching against homosexual activity. If you press your current position on the basis of the authority of the Catholic Church's teaching, how can anyone take you seriously when you reject the same Church's authoritative teaching on the other subjects? You can't have it both ways. Either the Church is authoritative and infallible in its teaching on Faith and Morals in all areas or we are reduced to everyman deciding for himself, which is no different from the argument often made against Sola Scriptura in light of all the thousands of denominations that spring from that doctrine due to differences of interpretation among those who hold to it. So, please declare yourself. What is the Creed to which you adhere? Or do you just pick and choose what you believe? What authority do you acknowledge and what authority do you reject? How about filling out a profile? Emmaus |
