Are you referring to Hans Kung et al?
The charge by Catholics that every protestant is his own pope rings hollow when the church has never taken time to teach the scriptures in context in an OFFICIAL catholic commentary ...so every bible study teacher , every theologian , every priest on Sundays is in fact giving his personal reading ...because your church knows if they ever did a contextual commentary it would show the faulty doctrine for what it is
Negative. Christianity teaches that Jesus is the pinnacle; therefore the Gospels are the core of Scripture, with the NT read through the Gospels and the OT through the New. Just as it is with the teachings of Jesus - the Faith - being the core and the Scriptures interpreted through the Faith and not vice versa. The Faith came long before any NT Scriptures were written, and in fact, the Scriptures were chosen to support the Faith, not vice versa. That is why Protestant understanding is often so different from traditional Christianity. The development of the myraid Protestant faiths came about in an entirely different process.
If you can not read the bible with understanding then SAYING it is the core means NOTHING because you do not know what the Holy Spirit is saying in it..
Pauls letters were a part of the FORMATION of the church ..and they were scripture
If the scriptures were chosen to support the faith, they PROVE how far the catholic church has fallen from the original faith of the apostles and disciples..
In the scriptures YOU HAVE LIFE a failure to understand them means you are dead
