"Sola Scriptura is patently false..." I disagree, however, how modern evangelicals use it today is different than in previous generations. To Luther, and other reformers sola scriptura meant instruction from scripture alone, as opposed to the Magisterium (sic) In modern evangelicalism it has degenerated into single verse proof texts to establish a point of view. In the reformed tradition, interpretation were based on the aspect of what they called "the whole consul of God" as opposed to a single text. In modern Christianity a single text can be used to promote almost anything. The issue boils down to was Jesus Christ who he said he was or an imposter? Was his death on the cross and resurrection a demonstration of God working salvation for those who believe? Will he come again to judge the living and the dead, including me based on my response to the call of Acts 17:30 "Though God has overlooked those times of ignorance, he now commands everyone everywhere to repent" NASB Acts 17:30 In the past God overlooked such ignorance, but now he commands all people everywhere to repent. All the other issues are side issues which result in denominations but we all have a personal relationship with God - one of love and respect or one of rebellion and dare I say it hate. Joshua 24:15 challenges me and all people when it say's "But if serving the LORD seems undesirable to you, then choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve"
