“Sola scriptura (Latin: by scripture alone) is a theological doctrine held by Christian denominations that the Christian scriptures are the sole infallible rule of faith and practice.”

No, not quite complete.

Sola scriptura means that Scripture alone is authoritative for the faith and practice of the Christian. The Bible is complete, authoritative, and true.

“All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness” (2 Timothy 3:16).

Everything necessary for salvation and Christian maturity is found in Scripture.

It is the highest authority because it came from God the Holy Spirit and is unchangeable, unlike other sources of authority.

The Bible is complete, authoritative, and true.

So that means that it is the only thing?
