Neither is Sola Scriptura. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Wrong again.

2 Timothy 3:14-17 But as for you, continue in what you have learned and have firmly believed, knowing from whom you learned it and how from childhood you have been acquainted with the sacred writings, which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus. All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, equipped for every good work.

“Neither is Sola Scriptura.”

It would be odd if it did, since that was the common and unquestioned understanding of scriptures in the first few centuries. Why state the obvious? Conversely, if there had been a pope between the writer and the Lord, you’d think he would pay homage. But you probably know the history of that human invention.

LOLOLOLOL.You must have eaten your fish on Fridays to be so smart. Lol. A friend of mine said Catholics are the smartest because they had to eat Fish on Fridays. Most Catholics on the Supreme Court lay waste to that unscientific fact, but plays well with picky kids.

And yet when Rome formalized its canon at the Council of Trent in the 1500s not one of the myriad of writings Roman Catholics selectively cite as "tradition" were included.

That is very telling.

If one just had the Bible, and if one just had the book of John from the Bible, one would have all they need to know how to have salvation.

That cannot be said about "tradition".
