Great video. Sola Scriptura is a ridiculous argument. It essentially allows Protestants to play in creative mode, picking and choosing what Scripture means based on personal interpretation. This completely disregards the Church’s authority and results in countless conflicting interpretations, making it impossible to have a unified understanding of Christian doctrine.
@@thetruthisnotsubjective The Church has always had a clear and visible hierarchy, just as in the Old Testament with its structure of priests and Levites. This tradition carries over into the New Testament and the early Church, upheld by leaders like Ignatius of Antioch, Polycarp, and Clement of Rome. Ignatius of Antioch and Polycarp were both direct disciples of the Apostle John, receiving their teachings and authority from him. Ignatius was also ordained by the Apostle Peter as the bishop of Antioch. Clement of Rome, who served as pope of Rome, was likewise ordained by Peter. Clement is even mentioned in Philippians 4:3 by St. Paul as a fellow worker in the Gospel. These early leaders, united in their teachings and leadership, upheld the Church’s hierarchical and structured nature. They were all in ecumenical unity, and their writings and actions confirm that the Church was never an invisible or loosely organized entity. Instead, it has always been the visible Body of Christ, preserving Apostolic Tradition through a clear structure of bishops who are successors of the Apostles. The Orthodox understanding of the Church continues this tradition. While salvation is found within the Church, and baptism is the ordinary means of entering it, the final judgment rests with God. Those outside the Church can still be saved through God’s mercy and grace, as He alone knows the hearts of all.

@@LOGICLOGOS yes logos this was spot on. Thanks for watching.
Should you finish reading the scriptures before you make that decision and teach?
It tells you want the church is in the scripture logos.
