You say you’re not “Bible Alone” but keep quoting only Scripture not any oral tradition AND using your own private interpretation of the Bible.

If Scripture alone, which has been written down for thousands of years and thereby remains unchanged because people can go back and refer to the originals, is not adequate or reliable, then *Oral Tradition* is nowhere NEAR being reliable. There is simply NO WAY of verifying that change has not crept in.

If Scripture alone isn't infallible enough to depend on, no self-appointed group of men who claim to be the infallible mouthpiece of God hear on earth can be counted on either.

Another question.....

Why the NEED for further revelation?

If it can be supported by Scripture, then it's not needed because we can find it in Scripture.

If it can't be supported by Scripture or contradicts it, then it is to be rejected as a lie, so again, it's not needed or even wanted.

Any *prophecies* are either redundant or lies. So what's the point?

Isn't there enough material in Scripture to keep us busy enough for a lifetime? You want MORE????

From what I've seen, most people don't even manage to be able to handle what we have revealed to us therein. Since when is God going to give someone more revelation when they won't even respond to what they have now?
