Has sola scriptura been proven?

None ever taken from what you write, my friend.

,but here is what I question:

*It is the practice of using the scripture as the final norm, holding all doctrines, teachers and teachings accountable to it. *

At what point in time did the early church begin to use this practice as the **final norm **for: doctrines,teachers,etc prior to scripture being compiled as one volume?

I won’t be argumentative about this. While there are ECF quotes regarding the use of scripture this way, and scriptural references to it (a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path), the fact is the SS is indeed a post-apostolic era practice.

When did church ratify it as the final norm?

For Lutherans, it is “ratified” in the confessions.

Yes my friend the ECF did appeal to scripture and Tradition as well. But you are correct SS is a post-apostolic era practice.
