SOLA SCRIPTURA!!
"ONLY SCRIPTURE" MEANS REFORMED CHRISTIANS GIVE AUTHORITY TO THE WORD OF GOD.
NOT ALL CHRISTIANS ARE PROTESTANT,THE ROOTS OF THE BAPTIST CHURCH STEM BACK TO 100 A.D. IN JERUSALEM.
THE STATING OF THE 5 SOLAS DOES NOT IN ANY WAY INFER A DISBELIEF IN SOME RELIGIONS PRAYER AUTHORITY.
"SOLA CHRISTOS" MEANS ONLY CHRIST,AND I FEEL CONFIDANT THAT AS LONG AS PRAYER IS COMMUNICATED BY THE COMMUNICANT TO THE PROPER AUTHORITY IT IS VALID.
HOPE THIS HELPS!
HAVE A GREAT DAY!
thankyou for the cleanup~!!
You're welcome.
I don't want to get in an argument over this with you, it's just that it IS totally identified with the Reformation/Anti-Catholic movement. It literally means 'by scripture alone.' I mean, I understand your beliefs, but don't drive the General Lee down the road in an MLK parade and tell me it's St. Anthony's Cross.
BTW - looks like your capslock is broken. New keyboard time?
