The Bible alone, and the Bible in its entirety, is the Word of God written and is therefore inerrant in the autographs.

Scripture never says that Scripture is the sole infallible authority for God's Word. Scripture also mandates the use of tradition. This fact alone disproves sola Scriptura.

Scripture never says that Scripture is the sole infallible authority for God's Word.

Beckwith continues to insist that it is. He has sworn fielty to the doctrinal statement of the ETS and he apparently has ALSO sworn fielty to the doctrine of the inerrancy of Papal Declarations and to the equality of Tradition with Scripture.

Beckwith is duplicitous in his theology. He can't swear allegiance to scripture alone and then swear allegiance to the Pope and all the Catholic theology which disputes the idea of Sola Scriptura.

The Bible alone, and the Bible in its entirety, is the Word of God written..

The Bible Alone. Not the Bible and Tradidion. Not the Bible and ex-cathedra Papal Declarations. Not the Bible and the teachings of the Early Church Fathers. The Bible Alone. Or in Latin: Sola Scriptura.

Beckwith apparently either doesn't believe that or he doesn't believe the Catholic Church.

Of the Five Solas, which ones has Beckwith abandoned to cross the Tiber? Apparently he is claiming that he has not abandoned Sola Scriptura. Maybe he just redefined it.
