RE: #31 - “where do you get:
“From Christ, through the Pope, all things are possible.” <— Catholic version.
That is nowhere in the church’s teaching....”
From the idea that interpretation is strictly the domain of the Church.
Through Christ in the individual, the individual can accurately interpret the Scripture. The individual can also misinterpret scripture, as man is fallible, including the Pope.
There must be some element within the Church that enables it to be the "pillar and foundation of the truth". Something guided by God that can give us an interpretation of the inspired Word of God, without questioning whether it is correct or not. If this Church was not infallibly protected in some manner, how could it BE the pillar and foundation of the truth?
What is important to realize is that God HAS given us a means to KNOW the truth, and it is NOT based on our own opinions.
Thus, the St. Augustine's "Rome has spoken, the matter is closed".
