Then you don't get to determine that sola scriptura is not biblical.

I did not say you're not free to go on believing such error. Go right ahead. Sin boldly.

But if you insist I believe it, I will tell you how wrong you are.

Yes and I will do the same with you. Continue to follow mere men for your eternity. Good luck with explaining that one to Christ. Even our Lord Jesus Christ, when not appealing to His own inherent authority, clinched His arguments with His opponents by saying, “It stands written!” or “Have you not read” in the Bible? He never said look to men or look to 'tradition'. He said, “Ye search the scriptures, because ye think that in them ye have eternal life; and these are they which bear witness of me.” John 5:39 (ASV) In Jesus’ day, Jesus acknowledges that the appropriate approach to salvation was to search for it in the Scriptures! And you know, that in Jesus’ day, the scribes had about as much authority as has ever been given to human tradition. And yet, Jesus pointed them to the Scriptures, not to the oral tradition, not to the authority of the scribes, but to the Scriptures. And then He said, “The Scriptures bear witness of Me!”

I'll stick with Scripture because that's what HE told me to do. Thanks.
