He left us no writings. Why is this?

John 14:26
But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.

John 15:26
But when the Comforter is come, whom I will send unto you from the Father, even the Spirit of truth, which proceedeth from the Father, he shall testify of me:

John 16:7
Nevertheless I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send him unto you.

Applause.

The sola scriptura belief is not supported by verses such as this. John 14 is Jesus addressing his Church officials. John 15 continues. And John 16 and 17 finishes His address to His disciples before His Passion.

The Holy Spirit will direct the Church; it is not a Church of mere words; it is a Church of men directed by God. I bow to you for your selection. It is very good.
