Eventually you get Joseph Smith or L. Ron Hubbard, since we can all make up whatever we want, choose whatever Holy Books we believe in and cut out those parts that trouble us. Islam started that way.
The phrase “Solo Scriptura” means “by Scripture Alone”. It is the premise that Scripture is the only source for faith beliefs.
In other words, only the written Word of God and no man made traditions or strange extra-Biblical rituals.
John Smith claimed Jesus and Lucifer were siblings. That is not found in the Bible. L Ron Hubbard claimed all kinds of crazy stuff including alien “thetans.” That is not found in the Bible. Catholics claim Mary ascended into Heaven. That is not found in the Bible.
Anyone else see the trend?

Well I don’t want to want to take the bait and start attacking Catholics as narses seems to be baiting us to do. I actually see Catholics as our allies and brothers in the fight against the radical forces lined up against Christians.
I really am disgusted by the vile attacks I see posted here on this issue; and I see them from both sides. That kind of discourse is most definitely against what Christ taught us and what He stands for.
We have radicals in the middle east who are attacking and killing Christians. Those people are the ones to fight against; not other Christians.
