They would say otherwise, and you would have no authority to say otherwise since, according to Sola Scriptural, everyone can interpret scripture for themselves.

And you totally miss the point. There shouldn’t be ANY denominations if Sola Scriptural is accurate.

But of course it isn’t, because until recently only scholars and the educated could read. Guess that damns all the centuries of illiterates to Hell, huh?

That’s nonsense. There will always be false denominations because there will always be false teachers as Jesus, Paul, Peter, John and Jude warned us. That some may misinterpret the same scripture Peter described as “difficult to understand” is not an argument against it being the sole infallible rule of faith.

Once again, that’s dumb. You think those illiterates didn’t have Godly pastors reading and preaching scripture to them every week? If you read a chapter a week it takes about 3 1/2 years to get through the whole Bible. And the earliest Christians without NT scripture had the Apostles themselves teaching. Which was scripture in itself.
