"What tradition and what Scripture? Chapter and verse and misinterpretation, please."

I am not going to answer "Chapter and Verse" because I do not accept the concept of Sola Scriptura or that the bible contains 100% of the revealed Word. You will not accept anything else. We therefore cannot engage in any meaningful dialog.

My question to you was in regards to what Scripture it was that was twisted.

NL: "As opposed to elevating other traditions of men like Luther and Calvin who twisted, redacted, and revised the plain, basic meaning of scripture?"

I asked this: "What tradition and what Scripture? Chapter and verse and misinterpretation, please. "

Your response of: "I am not going to answer "Chapter and Verse" because I do not accept the concept of Sola Scriptura or that the bible contains 100% of the revealed Word. You will not accept anything else. We therefore cannot engage in any meaningful dialog."

...is totally irrelevant to what I asked and what you commented on in the first place.

The issue wasn't about whether the Bible contained the entire revealed word of God or not, the issue was Luther and Calvin were twisting , redacting, and revising the plain, basic meaning of scripture. I simply asked which Scripture it was that they twisted, redacted, and revised and you responded with a strawman, as usual.

Do you think that you could find it in you to actually answer the question put to you for a change?

So give us an example of a Scripture, any Scripture, which Luther and Calvin twisted, redacted, and revised the plain, basic meaning of.
