I may be cocky...but at least I know the truth.

Then truthfully answer my question. Where does the Bible teach sola scriptura?

Haha...you really want me to hit it out of the park dont you?

Though I could give a million, I will only provide three examples of your so-called solo scriptura as practiced by none other than Jesus Christ himself. [because the Bible itself is the arbiter; "out of the mouth of two or three witnesses let a thing be established].

And when the tempter came to him, he said, If thou be the Son of God, command that these stones be made bread. But he answered and said, 1. It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God[Deuteronomy 8;3].
Then the devil taketh him up into the holy city, and setteth him on a pinnacle of the temple, and saith unto him, If thou be the Son of God, cast thyself down: for it is written, He shall give his angels charge concerning thee: and in their hands they shall bear thee up, lest at any time thou dash thy foot against a stone.
Jesus said unto him, 2. It is written again, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God [Deuteronomy 6;16].
Again, the devil taketh him up into an exceeding high mountain, and sheweth him all the kingdoms of the world, and the glory of them; and saith unto him, All these things will I give thee, if thou wilt fall down and worship me.
Then saith Jesus unto him, Get thee hence, Satan: 3. for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve [Deuteronomy 6;13].

Now, with that single passage from a single chapter of the New Testament [referencing the Old] I have absolutely crushed the flawed doctrine that opposes solo scriptura.
