Barf or Piñata? You decide!
Tin foil hat alert. Your thoughts, as always, are welcome.
Thus, writes Bouyer, “the supreme authority of Scripture, taken in its positive sense, as gradually drawn out and systematized by Protestants themselves, far from setting the Church and Protestantism in opposition, should be the best possible warrant for their return to understanding and unity.”
Except for the fact that scripture doesn’t teach ‘Sola Fidae’ or ‘Sola scriptura’. Faith AND works, look at James. Scripture AND Tradition. Look at Timothy.
Tradition doesn’t supercede scripture, and neither does scripture supercede tradition.
