OK, you are free to believe as you will. I recall saying such. I recall saying that there is good argument on both sides. I simply said the reformers felt that the burden of proof rested on them to disprove the early church fathers. After careful consideration, they decided that they could not conclusively do so, not on the basis of Scripture alone. It is as simple as that.

One does not lightly bind the consciences of God’s people, it leads to man forgetting who he is. I think the Reformers, many of whom lived under the threat of death, understood Christian liberty and the freedom we have under Christ better than most, especially, Americans do today. We take much for granted. So, again, horse laugh all you want. On this particular point, that is, on the point of this matter being truly an adiphoron, and touching on what Sola Scriptura really means and what faith is and is not, I find your approach wholly unconvincing.

No problem with that.

I’m far from one size fits all.
