Cvengr: "Until He has built me beyond that point, I know He has provided Scripture for me to use to understand His Word and grow in Him, so Sola Scriptura for myself is a veritable beginning."

kosta50: "The Church pre-existed the Christian canon, even the New Testament. So, nothing could be further from the truth."

If you don't find Scripture to be veritable nor to contain the Word, then how does God reveal Himself to you?

In acts of mercy and love. For that is not in our nature, nor is it to be found in nature itself. Rather it is not of this world.

But God does reveal Himself in Scripture, when the Scripture speaks of mercy and love. But that's not the only source.
