That is the God of the Church, yet its own scripture doesn't support it."
Yes. Luckily sola scriptura has no place in the theology or praxis of The Church.

I can see how the sola scriptura crowd would come to invent superstition of 'sola scriptura'. Once they abandoned the Church, all the could really take with them is that collection of writings the Church regards as scripture. They left the teachings of the Fathers, Holy Tradition, and the authority passed along through Apostolic Succession and were left with - a book.
To fill the void they invented the idea that book was perfect because they no longer had the Church. After that, the unraveling of their faith began and with that came the endless splintering that is Protestantism.
They sure threw out a really big baby when they tossed out the bath water during that Protestant Reformation. One need look no further than FreeRepublic to find the avalanche of heresies that came along with that reformation.
