I think we can post verses all day long, but they won't see how they apply. In the end it is an authority issue. Who is going to be in charge.

How does a protty, in good faith and with the best of intentions, encourage an RC to honor his bible without ever saying anything about sola scriptura? They are correct to say that there is no verse that says sola scriptura but there is scripture after scripture honoring the bible and people that do so.

The Catholic faith is the highest form of honor of Scripture there is. In contrast, neither sola scriptura nor sola fide is even IN the Bible.

And which verse exactly tells us to "honor" the Bible?

There IS a verse that tells us EXPLICITELY to call (and just a clue: it says CALL, we're not talking about what you think of her) Mary "blessed," why don't you do that?

“How does a protty, in good faith and with the best of intentions, encourage an RC to honor his bible without ever saying anything about sola scriptura?”

First of all, you are a believer, a Christian, not a “protty”. Next, quoting scripture is not “sola scriptura”. It is the “lingua franca” of the Christians on this forum since it is the one common source that all agree on. Tradition and the Church also inform, to some with more authority than others. “But ye, brethren, be not weary in well doing” (2Th 3:13).

You preach The Gospel and move on. If the Holy Spirit quickens them they will want to know more. I think you are spot on in trying to present the Truth.
