[Cronos]

So you agree with

The Bible is not exhaustive in every detail. John 21:25 speaks to the fact that there are many things that Jesus said and did that are not recorded in John, or in fact in any book in the world because the whole books of the world could not contain it. But the Bible does not have to be exhaustive to function as the sole rule of faith for the Church.

And yet you say that

All that is necessary for that blessed assurance is found in the Bible

it's not exhaustive in every detail about salvation, and yet all that is necessary is found in it?

....it's not exhaustive in every detail about salvation, and yet all that is necessary is found in it?

What's the problem with that?

We don't know every detail of the pain and suffering that Jesus endured while dying for us.

We don't know the detail of what happened those three days in the grave.

We don't know the detail of how Christ was raised from the dead.

We couldn't understand the detail of most of what related to how God worked salvation, but we know that He did and what it takes for us to appropriate it.

Nope...You got to quit adding words to God's scripture...

Joh 21:25 And there are also many other things which Jesus did, the which, if they should be written every one, I suppose that even the world itself could not contain the books that should be written. Amen.

Jesus didn't say any other things that would add to or change what He revealed in the scriptures that we have...

Jesus DID a lot of things which would be many, many more miracles, the same kind of which He revealed to us in His scriptures...

There is no authority given for your religion to come up with NEW revelation from God...
