How can you square the stuff in blue with this statement?

I explained it in post #154.

Ok, now I see the confusion. Cardinal Gibbons means that if you didn't have the Church to help you understand how to interpret and apply the Scriptures (particularly the OT) to this present era (i.e. the New Covenant), you would conclude that we should still worship on Saturday. Only through the Church do we learn that as baptism replaced circumcision, and the Eucharist replaced the Passover, so Sunday replaced Saturday. The Scriptures can only properly understood and applied to our present time only by the Church, not apart from the Church. That's why 'sola scriptura' actually robs people of Scripture as well.

How do you presume to know what Cardinal Gibbons is thinking and on what authority do you presume to be able to explain a Cardinal's dictates on FR?
