Oh dear! What is one to do? Okay, if you say so, all Catholic Dogmatic Teaching is Sacred Scripture!

Yes it was
No, this is what I said: But while all scripture is solid, the dogma and tradition built upon it can be unsound. Also there is eisegetical dogma and tradition. That is dogma and tradition that's built upon reading into scripture what it doesn't really say.

You concluding that to mean "all Catholic Dogmatic Teaching is Sacred Scripture!" is a non sequitur. It doesn't follow what I said.

And I'm still waiting for you to provide a cogent reply to the question I keep asking.

Now you're obfuscating! Obviously Catholic Church Dogma is sacred scripture.

Nope, Catholic Church Dogma is sacred scripture; it is all true.
That's a very subjective appraisal. Or are you being sarcastic?

Like I said:

The main difference is that scripture never changes and remains consistent.

Whereas Catholic church dogma has been changed or eliminated by the church numerous times over the centuries.

I doubt your ability to speak on behalf of Jesus.

CCC 944 The life consecrated to God is characterized by the public profession of the evangelical counsels of poverty, chastity, and obedience, in a stable state of life recognised by the Church.

Do the homework needed before offering ill-informed opinions about the religious life within the Catholic Church.

I doubt your ability to speak on behalf of Jesus.
Again, you heard that it was said to the ancients: You will not swear falsely, but you will pay to the LORD your oaths; 34 but I say to you not to swear at all...but let your word be, Yes, Yes, No, No, and that which is more than these is of the evil [one].
Matthew 5:33-37

Both are called the Word Of God.

If scripture refers to itself as the Word of God, then why should we believe you over scripture?

That's the story Protestants tell themselves, it isn't really true. Scripture calls itself scripture.

God, in the form of the Word, can not be used, deceitfully or not. Only written writing can be. It would appear that the above-quoted apostle did use "word of God" to refer to written writing.
