I am glad that you read post #1 but a little disappointed that post #11 does not tell me what scriptures support the definition that you gave.
When you're ready I'd be interested to see your answers to the bold text.
Correct. However, we should add that it's not tradition that determines what is Tradition either! That is to say, it's not necessary for there to have been any record of consistency through time or among theologians or in any other way that we would normally think of a "tradition," either religious or any other kind, as representing.
Two Christian denominations that uphold the position of prima scriptura are the Anglican Communion and the Methodist Church.[1][4] In the Anglican tradition, Sacred Scripture, tradition, and reason form the Anglican triad or "three-legged stool", formulated by the Anglican theologian Richard Hooker.

I did in post #315Post #11 doesn't offer a single scriptural reference.
Did you notice any disconnect between the subject of the thread title, and the text of the OP?
...maybe it's just me.
I did in post #315
It was in response to this post concerning "measuring stick"I'm not sure what length & breadth do to support a definition of sola scriptura.
Isn't this at type of "measuring stick" in Reve 11?Originally Posted by CaliforniaJosiah
The Rule of Scripture is the practice of embracing Scripture as the rule ("straight edge") - canon ("measuring stick") - norma normans (the norm that norms) as it is called in epistemology, as we examine and evaluate the positions (especially doctrines) among us.
Spoken like a true Sola Scriptura traditionalist!

Why not?Oh, but that has very little to do with the original post.
Here's the original post; tell me if it is about the length & breath of anything.Why not?
How does your denomination define its doctrine of scripture and does it have a specific section or sections that tell you that scripture alone is the only infallible rule of faith by which all controversies of religion are to be determined, and all decrees of councils, opinions of ancient writers, doctrines of men, and private spirits, are to be examined, and in whose sentence we are to rest is the Holy Spirit speaking in the holy scriptures?
If so can you quote from the official doctrinal standard, show what passages of holy scripture are used to support its declaration on this subject, and explain its meaning in your own words, please?
Why not?
.
I think it's correctly spelled traditionist. To say "traditionalist" would suggest that it's based upon something that's actually traditional, don't you know?
What rule of faith are those in the Sanctuary being measured for? Their looks?Here's the original post; tell me if it is about the length & breath of anything.
