I reject sola scriptura. So I’m not about to use sola scriptura as a defense.

I reject the thought that you know what that term even means. I know it's been explained hundreds of times to you over the years, but it doesn't seem to have registered in your memory bank. Tell me, does God-breathed Holy Scripture not have the highest authority over matters of the Christian faith?

You know BB, I left the Catholic Church many decades ago, and have been a born again Christian for that long. I don’t recall ever hearing the term solo scriptura. As far as I can remember, the first time I ever heard the term, sola Scriptura, was here on Free Republic. I am still not positive of what it means. What I THINK it means, is that I don’t accept anything else except the Bible, as a legitimate authority. If that is the definition of sola scriptura, then I accept that. Does this mean, that the writings of people like Clarence Larkin, Spurgeon, Donald Gray Barnhouse, Arnold Fruchtenbaum, Hal Lindsey, Chuck Smiyh and Chuck Missler, are no good? No. It simply means, we compare whatever they say, to the written word of God. 😀😂
