And the difference between *Scripture* and *the Word of God* is what precisely?

Do Catholics have their special Catholic only definitions of those words, too?

I shouldn't be surprised when those who twist and subvert the Word of God do so to me, but I am.

As a failed Catholic you have spent too much time on this forum to for anyone to accept your claim of ignorance of the Catholic belief that the entire revealed Word of God is comprised of both Scrfitpure and the Apostolic Tradition. Bearing false witness against a dhimmi seems to be another point of commonality between Islam and Calvinism.

Unlike the Sola Scriptura crowd, we Catholic actually pay attention to Scripture and what it says. Let us go to:

John 1: 1 1 2 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 He was in the beginning with God. 3 3 All things came to be through him, and without him nothing came to be. What came to be 4 through him was life, and this life was the light of the human race; 5 4 the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.

One of the fascinating things about the Sola Scriptura crowd is that they apparently cannot tell the difference between the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, God Almighty, and words in a book. Do you worship a book? Or do you, as Catholics do, worship the Lord God Almighty?

Do you think that the words of men equal or surpass the quotations of Jesus Christ Almighty? Paulicians do. Especially when supplemented by OT words of OT men, not the words spoken by God to Moses who transcribed them.

Great question!

I won’t hold my breath for a sensible answer.

Metmom: And the difference between *Scripture* and *the Word of God* is what precisely?

John 1:1 :
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

He was with God in the beginning.

3Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made.

4In him was life, and that life was the light of men
The Word of God is not encompassed just in the Written Word. As +Paul says it is the spoken Word as well -- Jesus IS The Word and He has no boundaries
