I have to be honest. I don't really know what Reggie defined Sola Scriptura as.

Post 2730. He quotes a definition that most folks here (including me) seem to agree with. I would like to know why his definition disagrees with my story of Mr C.

On your story, Mr. C sounds alot like me, I tried hard to reconcile what I was reading in the bible to catholic teachings. But it can't be done. So I left and found a church that interprets the bible the way I do. And I know I'm right because I know it's from the HS. But I can't tell you why. I know that sounds like a cop out, that is how I use to feel about that kind of remark.

So if it sounds like what you went through, my story must be somewhat reasonable?

As far as the term sola scriptura I think it is a, ohhh, slanderous term, that is used by catholics. Sorry, that's how I feel about it.

Catholics didn't invent it, it was the original reformers who crusaded for "Sola Fides, Sola Scriptura, Sola Gratia"

Well:) I find being grouped with the "reformers" as offensive. How many times have I said I'm not a protestant, my beliefs do not come out of the reformation, but are from the church Christ started.
