So many of us see it as an opportunity to attack the questioner in a personal way. Why do so few of us stop to consider that a good question is a good question and perhaps the one who posted it is actually exposing the subtleties in such a way as to stimulate interest in the actual inquiry instead of trying to pick a fight?

Some Protestants like to use 2 Timothy 3:16-17 as a "proof-text" that Sola Scriptura is a Biblical principle.....



Second Epistle Of Saint Paul To Timothy
Chapter 3
16 All scripture, inspired of God, is profitable to teach, to reprove, to correct, to instruct in justice, 17 That the man of God may be perfect, furnished to every good work.

"All scripture,"... Every part of divine scripture is certainly profitable for all these ends. But, if we would have the whole rule of Christian faith and practice, we must not be content with those Scriptures, which Timothy knew from his infancy, that is, with the Old Testament alone: nor yet with the New Testament, without taking along with it the traditions of the apostles, and the interpretation of the church, to which the apostles delivered both the book, and the true meaning of it.

Douay Rheims Bible

Same verse from KJV:


2 Timothy 3:16–17.
"All Scripture is given by inspiration of God and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteous- ness; That the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works."

An examination of the verse in context shows that it doesn’t claim that at all; it only claims Scripture is "profitable" (Greek: ophelimos) that is, helpful. Many things can be profitable for moving one toward a goal, without being sufficient in getting one to the goal. Notice that the passage nowhere even hints that Scripture is "sufficient"—which is, of course, exactly what Protestants think the passage means.

Paul laying down a guideline for Timothy to make use of Scripture and tradition in his ministry as a bishop. Paul says, "But continue thou in the things which thou hast learned and hast been assured of, knowing of whom thou hast learned them; and that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus. All Scripture is given by inspiration of God (Greek: theopneustos = "God-breathed"), and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: That the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works" (2 Tim. 3:14–17). In verse 14, Timothy is initially exhorted to hold to the oral teachings—the traditions—that he received from the apostle Paul. This echoes Paul’s reminder of the value of oral tradition in 1:13–14, "Follow the pattern of the sound words which you have heard from me, in the faith and love which are in Christ Jesus; guard the truth that has been entrusted to you by the Holy Spirit who dwells within us" (RSV), and ". . . what you have heard from me before many witnesses entrust to faithful men who will be able to teach others also" (2:2). Here Paul refers exclusively to oral teaching and reminds Timothy to follow that as the "pattern" for his own teaching (1:13). Only after this is Scripture mentioned as "profitable" for Timothy’s ministry.

The few other verses that might be brought up to "prove" the sufficiency of Scripture can be handled the same way. Not one uses the word "sufficient"—each one implies profitability or usefulness, and many are given at the same time as an exhortation to hold fast to the oral teaching of our Lord and the apostles. The thing to keep in mind is that nowhere does the Bible say, "Scripture alone is sufficient," and nowhere does the Bible imply it.

I started working about a month ago at this place and my boss, on my first paycheck, cheated me a couple hours, but he said i wasnt clocking in correctly, and i didnt have proof that i was. So this time around i saved all my clocking in papers and kept them, next thing you know, my paycheck shows up and its a good 50 dollars short. I made copies of the clock in papers i have and im going to go in there and show him... is this a good idea. Im in highschool and hes done this to my other friends (he cheated one over 100dollars)... so i quit and todays my last day. Do you think he will give me my money if i have just the copies? i am NOT going to give him the originals because if i dont get money then my parents said we are turning him in.

Calling all atheists : In Islam, there are specific signs named about the end times. Some of these signs have passed, and some are yet to come.. and as for the signs that have passed, how do you explain them? If Islam truly wasn't the word of god, then how come these signs came true?

How bout you see the signs for yourself : http://etori.tripod.com/dajjalsystem/judgement.html
Remember, as you read along, you know some of the signs have passed.

For example :
-- Smog will appear over cities because of the evil that they are doing (Pollution, especially in China)
-- The conquest of Constantinople by the Muslims ( The Crusades)
--People will hop between the clouds and the earth (airplane)
--A man will pass by a grave and wish that he was in their place
--The people of Iraq will recieve no food and no money due to oppression by the Romans (Europeans) -- ISNT THAT HAPPENING RIGHT NOW !!

How do you explain these signs..? Half them have come true, and half of the signs are
