WTF are you talking about?

And as witnessed on so many ocassions, it is usually the Roman Catholic, though not always, that is the first to resort to profanity and/or the personal attack when the argument goes against the.

I just want to see the scripture that says the bible is the sole authority. Provide it. I know nothing about a Mormon bible, although I did go to a Mormon funeral last month. Do you have to go to a Mormon to prove sola scriptura?

I use Mormons to illustrate the point as Mormons also claim, like Roman Catholics, that Scripture is insufficient as THE authoritative source even though Scripture does say it is.

Both Roman Catholicism and Mormonism both appeal to non-Scriptural writings for some of their beliefs.

If you want to say that the inspired Word of God is somehow insufficient for you and that you need to look to uninspired writings from created beings as holding equal, and in some cases, more truth.....then I cannot help you.

Scripture does attest to itself in being the final authority.

14You, however, continue in the things you have learned and become convinced of, knowing from whom you have learned them, 15and that from childhood you have known the sacred writings which are able to give you the wisdom that leads to salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus. 16All Scripture is inspired by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, for training in righteousness; 17so that the man of God may be adequate, equipped for every good work. 2 Timothy 3:14-17 NASB

Again, I find it compelling that Rome did not add one of the writings from the ECF to their canon at Trent when they had the chance to do so.

I have no problem with any of that. Where does it say scripture alone?
