how can you conceivably say that you have more scripture than does a Catholic. Do you think that there are no Catholics who read the bible....attendance at Mass keeps them up on the "word" of the day, and remember there is a Catholic Mass every day of every week. Catholics have had the ENTIRE scripture for 2,014 years and you rejected at least part of it. You seem to infer that you can get more out of scripture by random reading than by both random reading and listening to Christ's teaching authority on Earth, the Catholic Church....you can't, in fact you are MUCH more likely to misinterpret scripture by doing your own thing than by doing so with some learned guidance....you don't pick a trignometry book and study it trying to learn trig....you use the book with the guidance of a trig. teacher....works every time!!
I have the guidance of the ultimate teacher, the Holy Spirit.
Scripture is often posted here that Catholics have clearly not seen. In addition to that is the fact that the scripture Catholics do see are often a far cry from the Hebrew and Greek.
Galatians 5:12
....you don’t pick a trignometry book and study it trying to learn trig....you use the book with the guidance of a trig. teacher....works every time!!
If I understand you correctly, and please correct me if I’m wrong, you are saying The Bible (aka The Word of God) is equal to a textbook and requires a mortal human to make it understandable.
Do you really have so little faith in The Lord? I hope I’m misunderstanding you!
