Answering Self-Appointed Lady Catechist's Ridiculous Claim That Bible Alone and Faith Alone Leads to Evil
I just read across the ridiculous posts by a certain amateur or self-proclaimed Catholic faith defender lady (I'll probably call her Self-Appointed Lady Catechist to avoid getting personal or shaming her in public) where they say that the doctrine Bible alone and faith alone leads to evil. It made me think that the person is obviously using the wrong samples and that she's woefully ignorant.
Let us just take a look at this poor sampling she did. She should be grateful that I am not shaming her openly. Rather, I am criticizing her mistakes for the sake of her eternal soul. She's using the picture of a depraved "Baptist" church that has a female minister (as if the Roman Catholic institution doesn't have nuns) performing a lesbian marriage. I don't deny that there are fake Baptist churches and there are fake pastors here and there. But here's what I should address first and foremost - that Baptist church is evil not because it's Bible alone but because it doesn't follow the Bible alone.
If Bible alone is "evil" then she should try and answer some of her ridiculous claims. Did the Bible even teach that same sex marriage is okay before she says that the abomination in Alabama Baptist Church was a result of Bible alone? The claim that Sola Scriptura or Bible alone condones to certain evils should ask this question, "Whose words are in the Bible?" If she says God then she may already be indirectly insinuating that a holy and righteous God approves of wickedness. If a church is a Bible alone church then why would it have a female pastor and same sex marriage? Both practices are nowhere condoned in the Bible.
Worse, Self-Appointed Lady Catechist has spelled out Matthew 7:16-20 where she condemns herself. The scandals of the Roman Catholic institution of priests and nuns fornicating or committing acts of sodomy is nowhere less sinful than "Baptist" churches that indulge in sexual immorality. The problem is that it's rejecting Sola Scriptura and not affirming it that led to the creation of several pseudo-Christian denominations. Many pseudo-Christian denominations like the Iglesia Ni Cristo and the Mormons are among them who reject Sola Scriptura. It's by not having the Bible alone as the authoritative source of faith and tradition that many "Christian" cults are formed and not affirming the Bible alone as the final authority.
Her attitude has been far less than admirable either. Instead of arguing properly, she has shown her rotten fruit far too many times which makes me even more glad to why I abandoned Roman Catholicism. Some professional Catholic apologists have been showing much better behavior than her which may make any false convert easier to fall prey in contrast to her. After all, isn't she only a self-appointed catechist and not even an official one? I guess this is what Jesus meant in Matthew 23:15 where the Pharisees' converts are far worse a child of Hell than themselves. She hasn't shown any real Christian fruit either.
