“ Nonsense, when challenged on interpretation, Protestants do nothing BUT add to God’s Word by interpreting the Scriptures by their doctrine to justify their doctrine.”
Sorry, but I’m talking about Christians. I have no idea who you are referring to.
“ At least Catholics have the intellectual honesty to live by EVERY Word that proceeds from the mouth of God, and not pretend our eisegesis was God’s idea.”
Little of Catholicism is found in Scripture.
It is why they add the amorphous idea of “tradition.”
Then they use the See &Say hermeneutic.
Then they use the logical fallacy of Appeal to authority.
In 18 years year, I’ve yet to meet a Roman who knew the Scriptures or could teach his way out of a wet paper bag.
If you have a specific verse you want to discuss to illustrate your ideas, go for it.
It’s called reading chapter 1 of James.
Thank you for proving my point about how painfully ignorant you are of Scripture.
I’ve also proved upthread that the church fathers believed in sola fide; many even used the words faith alone.
You know, if you cared enough to read.
Your kidding, right? Where, pray tell, does Paul say that in Scripture?

’ What then shall we say? That the law is sin? By no means! Yet if it had not been for the law, I would not have known sin. For I would not have known what it is to covet if the law had not said, “You shall not covet.”’
Gee, it’s like the Ten Commandments are part of the law.
It’s only Catholic sophistry that tries to turn it into only circumcision in order to justify their heresy.
I’m also absolutely sure that you don’t even know what Christians actually teach about doing good works.
Attack that strawman, brah.
Can’t decide if it is annoying or fun to constantly correct the high-and-mighty pronouncements of Catholics here, especially because of how easy they are to reprove.
