“So, what about those Methodists and their quadrilateral: scripture, tradition, reason, experience?”

Protestants. They are Protestant in origin, leadership, doctrine, tradition.

“I understand you to be saying that Roman Catholics do not believe that a saved Catholic has to be a believer.”

Your “understanding” then is complete nonsense because I never said anything even remotely like that.

“If you are not saying that, then you affirm ‘sola fide’.”

False. It always amazes me how often Protestants come to completely erroneous conclusions like that. Not affirming the distorted view of salvation you put forward doe snot mean someone believes in another distorted view of salvation you’ve put forward.

So, you do think that believing is an important doctrinal point?

Good.

You have just affirmed ‘sola fide’.

And ‘methodists’ didn’t even exist during the protest and the reformation. They actually didn’t truly exist until America and the revolution. They weren’t born of any protest against Catholicism; they were born of protest against King George. LOL.

You gotta keep both eyes peeled for those old retired proud Army Chaplains, vlad. They blindside you if you let 'em.

And they're nosey.
