Show me in Scripture

[Nanopants]

That's not what he ask so you are just as guilty of taking the thread down a rabbit trail. The answer is no where in Scripture does it say to use it alone but to answer his question Paul says to use Tradition not just Scripture

But what is tradition in this sense? As far as I have figured, it's a "do as we do" mentality. Is this incorrect?

 

[LittleLambofJesus]

What's your point?. Yes, that verse calls scripture the "word of God." And it's not the only one.

Of course, Jesus is also called the word (sometimes capitalized) of God, in Revelation.

I don't see why this should disturb anyone.

To the OP...

Do you see the Anaphora in scripture?

 

[OrthodoxyUSA]

In response to another thread that was recently closed, can anyone show me in scripture where it says scripture alone is not enough? Please show me where scriptures say we need anything else.

God bless

Can scripture baptize us?

Can scripture perform any of the sacraments?

Scripture may speak of these things but it cannot 'do' them.

Can scripture baptize us?

No, but Scripture can be and is what Conservative Christians claim it is--the ultimate source of guidance on the sacraments, etc. When someone claims that it is something else, we should examine that to see if it's so.

Do you see the Anaphora in the scripture?

 

[OrthodoxyUSA]

The synaxis (the gathering of the body)...

Do you see that also?

 

[Albion]

Do you see the Anaphora in the scripture?

Is Anaphora necessary for salvation?

Where in scripture do you find guidance that amounts to identifying some other source of authority that we Christians must depend upon? That is the question we were discussing, not particular items of belief, practice, or devotion that any individual poster would like proven from scripture.

 

[OrthodoxyUSA]

Do we see the command of Our Lord, "Do this"?

The synaxis is required.

 

[OrthodoxyUSA]

Mat 18:17 And if he shall neglect to hear them, tell [it] unto the church: but if he neglect to hear the church, let him be unto thee as an heathen man and a publican.

 

[OrthodoxyUSA]

Is Anaphora necessary for salvation?

Yes. (but not always.)

 

[spiritwarrior37]

Can you show from Scripture that we are to only rely on it alone and that Christians were wrong for the first 1500 years for not using the Bible alone. No one has be able to yet.

And you have not as you put it, been able to show from Scripture, where it says scripture alone is not sufficient.

[spiritwarrior37]

Yes. (but not always.)

The 'Anaphora' is the group gathered together, led by one, and giving thanks to The Father over a cup of wine and bread.

What linguistics?

What linguistics?

Anaphora-a rhetorical device,a referential pattern in linguistics,a part of the Divine Liturgy in Eastern Christianity.

Anaphora-
A rhetorical for the repetition of a word or phrase at the beginning of successive clauses.

This is what I mean by linguistics. So the group you mentioned took their name from this?

You gave two defintions... the second, as it pertains to Christianity, is the one I refer to. (a part of the Divine Liturgy in Eastern Christianity.)

[Tzaousios]

So you are saying that the divine liturgy is necessary for salvation?

What kind of question is that? It sounds like a generic rhetorical question that a Protestant would automatically ask a Catholic or Orthodox. Only here it does not make much sense when you plug in "the divine liturgy."

That might require some in depth explaination... The big answer is YES.

However, Christ God grants salvation to whom he will.

But, Yes... It was left to us for a reason... as was baptism.

And that reason is for our salvation.

So, when Jesus answered ye must be born again, he should also have added the divine liturgy to that statement? The same with baptism huh? But these are another topic all together. Back to my OP. Can it be found in scripture where it is written that scripture alone is not sufficient for all doctrine, teaching etc. ? That is the topic of this thread.
