"Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.": The Lord Jesus Christ taught Sola Scriptura
And, whatever shall we do with that pesky St. John 1:1?
But to assume that the phrase "every word" means "scripture alone" simply begs the question doesn't it?
Just to state the obvious: Jesus the the Word of the Father. Jesus is a Person. Scripture is a book (or collection of books). A Person is not a book. QED.
Mk:16:15:
"And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature." (KJV)
Mk:3:14:
"And he ordained twelve, that they should be with him, and that he might send them forth to preach." (KJV)
Lk:9:2:
"And he sent them to preach the kingdom of God, and to heal the sick". (KJV)
Where did He command to write anything? The only record of Him writing is when He wrote on the ground and the content of which is unknown to us:
Jn:8:8:
"And again he stooped down, and wrote on the ground". (KJV)
How many people could read back then or even now for that matter?
I think you just made my point for reason #11 as you had to make your own interpretation to that meaning Sola Scriptura- it did not say that the scriptures and the scriptures alone are the final authority, you interpenetrated it that way. As we know through history, through the hundreds of denominations and translations, abuses and mistakes, that “Sola Scriptura” without guidance of tradition or the Holy Spirit is prone to be abused. It is the root of the phrase ‘you can prove anything with the Bible’.
It’s not worth your time. This is nothing but a trolling thread.
“but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.”: The Lord Jesus Christ taught Sola Scripture”
Obviously did not read the article.
God speaks through his prophets, and not all of what they said is in the bible, yet it is oral tradition and authoritative. Scripture even says that not all that Christ taught and did is in there.
What an excellent verse you have brought to this discussion. I don't recall thinking of this one in this context but your verse actually raises the whole bar. Not only is all doctrinal truth in the bible but life itself is completely dependent on the "scriptures/Word of God/word of Christ". Those who oppose sola scriptura can often be noticed opposing the bible itself if you pay attention and I'm sure they will not pay any attention to your post. But I sure noticed it.
