“Isn’t the entirety of Christendom justified based on the scriptures??”
No, it’s not. Christianity is based on is based on the collective experience of the Christian community, beginning with the life of Christ. Scriptures are a record, written by men. The experience is paramount.
Your Answer: No, it’s not.
Christianity is based on is based on the collective experience of the Christian community, beginning with the life of Christ.
Scriptures are a record, written by men. The experience is paramount.
The "Correct" Answer:(2 Tim 3 : 16) "All Scripture is inspired of God and beneficial for teaching, for reproving, for setting things straight, for disciplining in righteousness"
(2 Peter 1:20-21) "Above all, you must understand that no prophecy of Scripture came about by the prophet's own interpretation.
For prophecy never had its origin in the will of man, but men spoke from God as they were carried along by the Holy Spirit."
“No, it’s not. Christianity is based on is based on the collective experience of the Christian community, beginning with the life of Christ.”
Wrong. Beginning with the Old Testament.

“Scriptures are a record, written by men. The experience is paramount.”
Wrong again. “Experience” and it’s various interpretations are subject to the shifting sands of time. The Written Record stands eternal.
The Bible is not a “living, breathing document” in the twisted sense of those words today.
The “collective experience” is more like the Muslim Umma than Scripture.
