Sola Scriptura Exemplified in Harold Camping

Sola Scriptura, a novel teaching found within Protestantism basically gives Protestants the right to privately interpret the Bible contrary to the Biblical mandate and text. Sola Scriptura leads to complete disunity

Also my whole use of the word "denominations" was meant to be fallacious, all im saying is that their are plenty of names/societies under the banner of "The Catholic Church" which have different doctrines. As far as i see it we are becoming more and more like the Protestants, yet because we dont use the word "denomination", we are different? I guess the definition of "denomination" would be clearer...

[gnrhead]

@thefullnelson1 Sir, your usage of the term denominations was not just fallacious, it betrays the meaning of what a denomination is. If you understood what you were talking

about you would not have heaped in groups that are NOT even denominations and groups that are not even considered Catholic! It's silly. Before you think that

Catholicism is morphing into Protestantism, I suggest you learn about the faith.

[gnrhead]

@thefullnelson1 I hope my videos can provide some help. If you have any general question

as regards the Catholic faith-I would recommend you check out my blog, my site, my Youtube site, or anything on the Catholic Legate site-for orthodox

Catholic teaching. GOD bless you buddy!

[thefullnelson1]

Also please define the words SOLELY and ALONE in regards to the catechism, ill be very surprised if they are not synonyms with your use of the word ONLY. You also never answered on the axiom of catholic faith and also the protestant faith, we all have an axiom if we have faith, yet what is yours? Look forward to your response, i hope its not as attacking and degrading as your earlier responses... Note,Novus Ordo was more relating to "Vatican2 Mass" than the eucharist.This is found in the mass.

[gnrhead]

@thefullnelson1 I understand everything you are saying, but it's unfortunate that you clearly aren't understanding simple concepts of the faith. Once more, you claimed that the

Novus Ordo was a denomination? That makes no sense at all. Novus Ordo is not even a title for a Mass. The Novus Ordo is NOT a "Vatican 2 Mass"--it does

not come from Vatican 2. That makes no sense sir.

[gnrhead]

@thefullnelson1 Furthermore, you also heaped the Eastern Orthodox in as a denomination of the Catholic Church! Sir,

I hate to be blunt-but you don't have a clue as to the simplest matters of theology. I respect you as a brother in the faith, but I don't appreciate people making

claims that are clearly elementary and then claiming they are Catholic.

[Onetruthrgv]

@jakovcu Easter Orthodox is the only one that comes to mind but I am talking about sola scriptura vs infallible interpreter, Tradition is not the issue here.

[jakovcu]

@Onetruthrgv

Because it is. Can you name those churches beside Catholic church that follow the tradition and still have completely opposite teachings?

Best regards, Jakov

SCREW YOU! I WANTED TO DO THIS!!!!

[megaead69]

Sola Scriptura makes no sense. The Bible does not claim to be the sole authority. The pillar and foundation of truth is the church (1 Tim 3:15).

[Onetruthrgv]

gnrhead, Why must you claim sola scriptura is a practice that causes disunity? In fact Sola scriptura has more unity than a church of Scripture and/or tradition + infallible interpreter. I can compare 5 denominations who hold to sola scriptura and compare them to 3 churches that hold to Scripture and/or tradition + infallible interpreter and the unity between the churches holding to sola scriptura would be extremely smaller than that of the Scripture and/or tradition + infallible interpreter.

[AgApE010]

Sola Scriptura merely means that Scripture alone is the infallible, inerrant, and God-breathed source for Christian doctrine and practice. It has nothing to do with interpretations, much less with Camping. That's a different topic.

It seems with so many of you that if all else fails, misrepresenting Protestantism and lying for the "Mother church" is the way to go.

I fail to see on what grounds you set yourself up as an apologist.

[VictorLepanto]

Not only is SOLA SCRIPTURA unsupported by the Bible it is clearly contradicted by many many passages in the Bible. Just go through your Bible & notate every passages of the Gospels where Jesus is noted as speaking but we are not told what He said. What Jesus says is by definition the word of God. But if there is no word of God outside of scripture, then a Prot. most hold that what Jesus said was not the word of God. An absurd contradiction.

[vtaylor21]

This video reminds me of what St. Athanasius wrote about the Arians

For being forced from the conceptions or rather misconceptions of their own hearts, they fall back upon passages of divine Scripture, and here too from want of understanding, according to their wont, they discern not their meaning; but laying down their own irreligion as a sort of canon of interpretation , they wrest the whole of the divine oracles into accordance with it (Discourse Against Arians 1:52)

Thanks for video

I was nervous about 5/21, because if the Lord would've come, it would've meant that the church apostasy had happened (2Th 2v3). I'm a sedevacantist, but I still attend the new mass as an observer, because I know that any man that believes something false can't help it. We're born that way, and we don't have control over our thoughts. God does. He saves us. He reveals truth to us. He can send a working of delusion to chasten us. May we all be humble and give God glory for everything.
