Do you have any examples of Luther's doctrine of "the Bible alone" in Scripture? There can't be any references to the collection of books called the Bible, in the Bible, because the individual books were written long before the books were collected into one "Biblia" (books).

The Church wrote, preserved and canonized the Bible. The Church is "the pillar and foundation of truth." Jesus had harsh words for those who would not listen to "the church."

Christ's Church teaches us of the Communion of Saints.

The Holy Spirit must indwell them, JSDude1, before the actual meaning becomes clear to them.

Prayer towards that end will not go amiss.
