A CHALLENGE TO ANY PROTESTANT

 

Catholic apologist Mark J. Bonocore once issued a challenge to Protestants.

 

He challenges Sola Scripturists (Bible Alone believers) to name one ancient Christian who adhered to Sola Scriptura and who, as a result, came up with all the same doctrines that they did.

 

The idea is that if the Sola Scriptura method works, it should have worked at any point in Christianity, and should have brought all the early Christian Bible readers to the entire set of Reformed doctrines.

 

But if it did not bring even one Christian to the exact Reformed set of doctrines, then there would be a big problem. It could no longer be defended as a reliable method for interpreting the Bible.

 

For Sola Scriptura to be valid, this challenge must be answered.

So far, it has not.
