Sola vs. Solo Scriptura – A Distinction Without a Difference (Cont’d) Continuing My Reply to Dave Armstrong Having demonstrated, in the first part of this article (Sola vs. Solo Scriptura – A Distinction Without a Difference), that there is no such thing as a “standard Protestant definition” of Sola Scriptura – or, for that matter, of any distinctly Protestant doctrine – I would like to finish up with my final two points in response to Dave Armstrong’s Reply to Gavin...

Here is how I defined Sola Scriptura in that tract (as quoted... Read more
