Why do you hate the Bible so much?

When did I ever say I hate the Bible. I have one sitting right in front of me.

Bearing false witness is a sin.

It's not bearing false witness because that's the impression you give every time you disparage, belittle or deny the authority of the word of God. When you place your church in authority over Scripture, you are essentially saying it is secondary and not primary. Almighty God doesn't appreciate reliance on His word being called "dumb". It's odd that so many of the early church fathers attested to the primacy of Scripture and the church's submission to it, but today they are called dumb for doing so.

Roman Catholic church leaders HAD to come up with the idea of the insufficiency of Scripture in order to justify their development of doctrine which was either not confirmed by Scripture or contradicted by it. They insisted the Scriptures were in submission to the Magisterium instead of the other way around.

Here's a test. If you wanted to know if a doctrine of your faith was true, which would you go to first? Catholic church books or that Bible you have sitting right in front of you?

Because actions speak louder than words.

Your contempt for Scripture comes through on all these flame baiting threads you post disparaging those who appeal to it and denigrating its worth.

She's not imaging what she detects.

Why do you think the Bible is not adequate to get a person saved?
