In the gospels and epistles, Jesus is reported to have commanded the apostles and disciples to TEACH, to BAPTIZE, to EAT HIS BODY AND DRINK HIS BLOOD. In other words, to hand on TRADITION and to confect SACRAMENTS. Jesus is not reported even once as suggesting that his teaching was to be written down—let alone that writings were to be the ONLY means of transmitting his teaching.

You just blew your argument out of the water by appealing to the WRITTEN word.

You seem to think that denying sola scriptura entails disparaging Scripture.

Scripture is the inspired, inerrant Word of God. Are you ignorant of the fact that this is the teaching of the Catholic Church? Apparently.

It’s amazing how virulent, obsessive anti-Catholics like you routinely expose themselves as abjectly ignorant of the most central Catholic teachings.
