Brave talk given what is happening with the current Pope.


We have two threads daily bashing Catholics and bashing the Pope. The RCC has a Catechism and this published work makes it clear that practicing homosexuals are in Mortal Sin and are separated from God. No matter what some Prot sects say about how normal Gay Sex is, and say this based on Scripture, the RCC has an official interpretation of these Bible passages, and, I believe that this interpretation is correct - Gay Sex is Mortal Sin. A practicing homosexual is separated from God, until such time as proper repentance happens.

It's time we addressed this Perspicuity of Scripture and Bible Alone doctrine in the light of this homosexual debate.

What you fail to realize is that the doctrines do not state that each Christian is allowed to interpret the Bible however they want to, as if God didn't have a meaning in what He gave us in the Scriptures. You make it seem like Protestants support a Wild West mentality on Bible interpretation, but that's simply not true. There is a traditional method of biblical hermeneutics that are derived from the Scriptures that help us understand exactly what God intends.

The homosexual debate isn't even an attack on perspicuity or sola scriptura, at least not as you want it to be. In fact, this particular issue proves the point for the clarity of Scripture and the authority of Scripture.

The "woke" progressives who claim Christianity do not use biblical hermeneutics to interpret Scripture, and ultimately, they are not governed by the authority of Scripture at all. Just like Rome, the progressives use their traditions to interpret the Bible rather than the other way around.

It's precisely because the progressives reject the authority of the Scriptures and the clarity of them that they try to push their case.
