you’re literally just repeating yourself

No I didn't, I focused on the doctrine aspect here. You haven't refuted the logic of how your proof text fails.

You have, once again, appealed to authority - which I believe would not be strictly sola scriptura either.

If, however, you really did hold to the views of those you cite, you would also believe in the real presence:

"Since then He Himself has declared and said of the Bread, (This is My Body), who shall dare to doubt any longer? And since He has affirmed and said, (This is My Blood), who shall ever hesitate, saying, that it is not His blood?" - St. Cyril

Cherry picking the Church Fathers is no better than cherry picking scripture.

“Cherry picking the Church Fathers is no better than cherry picking scripture.”


Well, it is you that is actually cherry picking. But, it matters not, since if Cyril himself says not to give him heed as an authority in and of himself, but held up scripture as our authority, then he is more with me than he is with you.

“No I didn’t, I focused on the doctrine aspect here.”


Read your past 3 or 4 posts. You don’t even respond to anything I say. What can I do about it? I can’t force you to read a sentence in its entirety.
