My point does not assume the truth of relativism. My point is that claiming to rely on Scripture alone does not guarantee that your interpretation is the true one. There are 20,000+ Protestant sects that claim to rely on Scripture alone and have the true interpretation "as revealed by the Holy Spirit". What makes you think that you are somehow immune to the interpretational errors that plague the other 20,000+ Protestant sects?
I'm not saying that nobody has the truth. (That's why my point does not assume relativism.) I'm talking about how you can know that *you* have the truth, and that all the other 20,000+ Protestant are wrong? So my question is about epistemic justification, and not pluralism or relativism.

That's why for 2,000 years the church has written various creeds -- to hold men's perception of God accountable to the word of God itself.
"To the law and to the testimony: if they speak not according to this word, it is because there is no light in them." -- Isaiah 8:20
