I think the important thing about sola scriptura for us Protestants is that it defines the outer bounds of what beliefs are reliable, and required of Christians.

In Geneva, you couldn't be burned at the stake for denying some "truth" not found in the Book.

Nobody I know has ever said that everything which is true is in the Bible, in fact, John's gospel says exactly the opposite.

What we say is that all truths necessary to salvation are found there, and this belief carries some protection against the vanities and errors of men.

Thank you, Jim. The Bible shows us how to live. It’s a wonderful teaching tool, a manual of sorts. And yes, it does show us what is necessary for salvation, the real thing! Mxxx
