"some must label others falsely in order to make themselves look good."

So you are saying that sola scripturist is an insult?

Is that what it is in your mind? It would seem so (from the way you seemed to say it with a condescending sneer when you first posted it to me), but projecting it onto me is contentious.

[If you falsely labled me a Catholic would that be an insult?]

But lets deal with your inference that I am "saying that sola scripturist is an insult."

Let me quote a great debater:

I’d like some proof of it.
Be wary of straining at a gnat, and swallowing a camel.

"I thought you believed that the bible was the foremost authority on Christianity. Is this not so?"

I think it very clear from my posts that God is the formost authority on Christianity. [One God in three persons, God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit]

I will say though that the Bible is more an authority on Christianity than the Catholic church.

“Be wary of straining at a gnat, and swallowing a camel.”

It’s your faith that preaches that it’s doctrines can be found in scripture. It shouldn’t be difficult to find one of them if this is in fact the case.

“I will say though that the Bible is more an authority on Christianity than the Catholic church.”

Can a river rise higher than it’s own source?
