“NICE story in the excerpt. Another example of man asking what ‘authority’ Scripture has, as in ‘who told you that IT has authority?’ If one accepts the Bible as God’s Word IT has God’s authority intrinsically.”

Scott Hahn, a former seminary professor, Presbyterian minister could not find Martin Luther’s Sola Scriptura the “Bible Alone” in Scripture.
It’s more than a “nice” story, it should wake you up.
More error, explain, what or who is “it?” The Bible doesn’t interpret itself, how can it be it’s own authority? “Bible Alone” cannot be found in Scripture, reason, Martin Luther came up with his heresy in 1517.
Luther wants you to reject the authority that gave you your Bible. Think how nonsensical that is xone.
God gave us HIS Word, not the RC's word. The RC church preserved it, but it isn't theirs. The human writers were inspired by the Holy Spirit to write what they did. So even when claiming the Apostles as Catholics, it IS and remains God's Word. It is by God's authority that we have it. If God could raise children of Abraham from stones, He could and would have raised up a preserver of His Word in the same way had the Catholic church never existed.

I doubt that Mr Hahn is a better authority on Scripture than Martin Luther former Catholic. I don't find his failing persuasive.

Surely not in the Catholic church.

For one who claims human authorship ans inspiration of the Bible, it is unmitigated gall to claim anything is nonsensical.
