So...with that logic...one could argue that Luther worked hard to suppress several books of scripture. The Catholic Church merely maintains that Scripture is part of the equation...the Church grew exponentially, and many Catholic beliefs were in place way before the same church decided which Books, letters, et all were free from error. Solo Scriptura is a relatively new concept, and has led, sadly, to a fractured Christian family.

Solo Scriptura is valid if you remove anything that has to do with "denomination" or "church"

If there were no RCC, there would still be the scriptures (you can get just as saved from reading Douay-Reems as you can KJV .... the Latin Vulgate or the Textus Receptus)


If there were no Baptists, Methodists, Episcopalians or Jews, there would still be Jesus, His Words and His works.

If there were no Wiccans or Satanists or muslims, there would still be the created earth with flora and fauna.


And for those that argue they believe the Bible (raising hand in class .. teacher teacher .. I do, I do ..) The "denomination" they (we) prefer is more a preference of delivery and tapestry than a theological position.


What must I do to be saved?
Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and thou shalt be saved.


And if there's anyone here after 8 0'clock and not in church ... stay anonymously behind the keyboard
