If a Sola Scriptura practice denies the Apostolic Sacred Oral Traditions, the divine authority Jesus places upon His Church, then Sola Scriptura becomes a practice of biblical contradiction.
If a Sola Scriptura practice places itself as the Sole source by which God gives His revelation and teachings to His Church, can disqualify the Sacred Oral Apostolic Traditions, when both Sacred Scripture and Sacred Tradition is the full deposit of the one Holy Cathoilc and Apostolic (biblical) faith. The Sola Scriptura becomes a new wind of doctrine invented by men and not a divine revelation from God. Jesus revealed that there are many more things that are not written, when He will reveal to his Apostles, and did not John record in his gospel what Jesus said and done that are not written? Sola Scriptura cannot stand alone here.
If a Sola Scriptura practice is the Sole authority and source by which the revelations and teachings of Jesus Christ are interpreted and defended from ones own interpretation. This suggests a division and contradiction by varying Christian (ecclisial faith) communities that denominate from one another, which leads to a head without a unified body.
If a Sola Scriptura practice presents itself as God’s living Word written, that can be used for teaching, instruction and correction that is interpreted on a par with Sacred Apostolic Tradition without contradiction. Then the Sola is used in it’s correct context as other Catholic Saints have used it for teaching, instruction and refuting heresies as a canon (measuring standard), with the Keys Jesus gives them. When Sola Scriptura is used in Liturgy to teach, instruct and correct the faithful, Sola Scriptura is used in its’ correct biblical context when the Logos personfied is present in our midst.
Sola Scriptura taken out of the biblical context loses it’s divine element supported by Sacred Tradition. Sola Scriptura by itself has no God given divine Keys to bind and loose on earth in order to define and defend the apostolic faith. Thus how can any Sola Scripturalist use scripture only for teaching, instruction and correction when it has no divine given authority to exercise the Keys Jesus gives to his Apostles to bind and loose upon the whole earth? Martin Luther and others of the reformation were not there when Jesus bestowed his divine Keys to His body in the Catholic Church.
A Sola Scriptura practice or doctrine can negate the True Presence of the Word Incarnate in our midst. A Sola Scriptura (invented by men) since it’s inception has opened the flood gates of chaos that come against the Rock to which Jesus has built His Church, but will not prevail.
I love the Sola Scriptura, that puts the bright light on those divine revelations and teachings revealed by Jesus Christ that are not written, which were apostolically handed down orally practiced in faith by all the faithful since Pentecost, unchanged to today divinely confirmed from liturgy. It is here where the Sola Scriptura is the Logos= Personified in True presence.
In essence, the Sola Scriptura practiced in Liturgy, where the biblical practice of teaching, correction
It is here where Sola Scriptura is placed in it’s correct context; The Liturgy of the Word and the Liturgy of the Eucharist. For it is for this reason ALONE above all others, why the bible books were canonized (by the authority of the Catholic Magisterium) and revealed as God breathed in liturgy.
So that all the faithful can begin and grow their Christian faith by hearing and hearing the Word of God, not reading the Word of God. And then faith from Sola Scriptura in liturgy becomes the living Word in Eucharist, when we can taste, eat and drink the Sola Scriptura = Word made flesh and blood. This is where Sola Scriptura belongs, in the liturgy of the Mass. The Sola Scriptura was sent for man, not man for the Sola Scriptura.
For to Catholics the Word of God is living who is the Sola Word of God incarnate in the Son of man who lives in our midst. A Sola Scriptura by itself that has no Apostolic Sacred Tradition loses it’s divine qualities in the full deposit of faith.
Scripture commands, **we must **hold fast to the Traditions which the apostles gave us by both Oral Tradition and by Letter. Paul’s teaching contradicts a Sola Scriptura practice here…
Peace be with you
