Luther was a distant echo of those who went before him, combating error and yes, even "heresy" within the Church.

You have appealed to Luther, who viciously hated the Jews and published a seven point plan for their destruction. His last known letter(s) to his wife before he died told of scheming to harm some poor Jewish souls some other Gentile prince was giving refuge. His work was put on display by the Nazis and they implemented all his recommendations with zeal. He was a false apostle and you've just lost the discussion/debate by appealing to him.

Oh puh-leaze. I made nothing much of "appeal" to Luther, for I scarcely made mention of him.

Yet regardless of what he may have gotten quite wrong, he was not "inventing" the principle of sola scriptura as I provided some evidence towards.

Care to deal with that, rather than this shooting-of-the-messenger business?

It seems to me that your own position is to find some flaw in regards to Martin Luther to then discount everything else he went into at some length, to now transport whatever dismissive negativity which could be ginned up against Luther ---> to now apply to myself here?

I have documented well enough my own contentions.

There are more than a few ECF's which I did appeal to.

So perhaps you'd care to answer or address one question, as demonstrated was left begging;
