Once again nobody has claimed sola Scriptura means the Scriptures are the sole source of truth regarding everything that exists,

Did God REALLY say....?

Where would a Catholic be without a fast held misunderstanding of what sola Scriptura means no matter how many times they've been corrected?

I sure hope you have your response copied and pasted for future use because I would put everything I own on the fact that the same argument will surface again from someone who has already been corrected on the matter.

It never ceases to amaze me that the same group that loves to take credit for Scripture is so eager to diminish it as not good enough or complete in itself that it needs to be supplemented.

Honestly, if the Catholic church couldn't get Scripture correct in the first place, whatever possesses them to think that we should trust them now with their *sacred tradition*? Why should we think they're doing a better job with that than the Scripture they claim is inadequate when they claim they gave it to us?

STRAWM ARGUEMENT FALLACY.

Same challenge to any and all of you.

Pick a definition of Sola Scriptura, any definition and show it to me in the Bible.

And just so we are all clear on the meaning of the word DEFINITIONnoun

1. the act of defining, or of making something definite, distinct, or clear: We need a better definition of her responsibilities.

2. the formal statement of the meaning or significance of a word, phrase, idiom, etc., as found in dictionaries. An online dictionary resource, such as Dictionary.com, can give users direct, immediate access to the definitions of a term, allowing them to compare definitions from various dictionaries and stay up to date with an ever-expanding vocabulary.

3. the condition of being definite, distinct, or clearly outlined:

Just we are all clear I am looking for you to provide me with the definition of your choice of Sola Scriptura and then show me that exact same definition in the Bible.

Given that you all spend so much time in the word it should be no trouble at all.
