You see, the very usage -- "scripture" meaning "proof text" -- to me suggests the problem with this approach to Scripture.

I am not asking for PROOF texts, I do not much like proof texts as they are verses taken out of context..like in the catholic catechism

What I am asking for is something in scripture IN CONTEXT that supports a doctrine.. If Catholics had them they would give them

I am not interested in having ANY doctrine supported by a FALLIBLE source ... I want to see the doctrine taught infallibly

For instance recently you semi quoted a scripture that it was the doctrine of MEN that Christ condemns.. I agree with that ...what I asked of you was HOW DO YOU determine what is the doctrine of men and what is a doctrine of God..

I am jumping around my pings..so I may have missed it.. but if i did could you tell me again?? What is your final authority ?

The Magisterical, ah, I mean “um”, MagisteriUM, I guess.

I trust God to work through (and often in spite of) the visible Church.

I thought I said I wasn't going to answer that question until later, but maybe I just meant to.
