Rick Otto has stated that the Bereans are an example that we should follow. Why? Because they are. They're 'praised'.
The Bereans consulted scripture. I have no problem with consulting scripture. Where does it say in sripture that we should only use scripture? It doesn't. At best so far we have this singular example. The assumptions surrounding this are as yet unresolved. If praising of a behaviour means we should follow it then we should all squander our wealth, live with harlots and then return to our parents and expect to be taken back, because the prodigal son did just that and he too was praised.
He did the right thing, in the end. So why shouldn't we?
The only response to this in several days was that "You're just being childish". Why? How? Who knows. It just is so. It's been pronounced, end of discussion.
When Paul encourages people to follow the teachings of God through word and scripture apparently this is not an example.
When in Acts 15 the Apostles decide on a point based on the word of Peter, Paul, and the written word of the prophets, this is not an example, apparently either. Why? Who knows.
Apparently also some 'problems' might get into tradition through ruptures of wrong teaching. Which? Who knows.
It seems the best argument for sola scriptura is to be based on unquestionable assumptions.
That's where this thread is up to.
