    Is Sola Scriptura a Heresy?

    You are derailing the thread. I am not even talking about that. I am not talking about people being unteachable by men. I am not talking about new biblical level revelation, either. Do you really not comprehend what I am discussing?

    Is Sola Scriptura a Heresy?

    It is very difficult to have a conversation about legitimately being led by the Spirit.
