Do These Verses Disprove Sola Scriptura?

from Following Jesus · host David Cipriano

Sola Scriptura is one of the most debated doctrines in the church today, because while Catholic and Orthodox Christians reject this doctrine, it’s believed by most Protestants. And as a Baptist who affirms this doctrine, I want to highlight some of the verses commonly given against it. I’ll show you why these verses don’t actually disprove it and why Sola Scriptura is a biblical belief.Hey!
