The written word of God is sufficient, profitable, and cannot be broken as you pointed out from Scripture. I read each Scripture you mentioned. I never want to add to God’s word as well. Innovations are new things, but apostolic teaching preserved and handed down are not new things. I don’t care for new things. They lead to more innovation and disunity. But you also made claims that appear to be your presuppositions, yet which you didn’t include/connect Scripture with. In my question I asked about the “Sola” part of Sola Scriptura in Scripture, but what you posted doesn’t possess one verse that uses the words, sola, alone, only, or any similar word or limiting phrase.
2 Timothy 3:16-17 doesn’t possess a sola element. Scripture is profitable for several things and can make one complete. But Scripture in James 1:4 speaks of another thing that makes us mature and complete. I’d think you’d agree with me that we need more then just perseverance, like faith, repentance, and other things. Returning to my question, I’m still waiting for a verse with something resembling sola. Since Scripture is said to be perspicuous, all I’ll need is a verse. Ty for your help. I’m having trouble in this area. Also, I’m not a Roman Catholic.
