Sola Scriptura

Ah, a breath of fresh air, to hear the words "sola scriptura". With every wind of doctrine and tradition in this world, to hear these words, makes me feel like all is well, all is right. There is a plumb line, The Word of God, and I remember.....The reformers and their persecutions, running from murderers, while they protected the Word of God. They came to the realization that when you can know the Word and keep it planted in your heart, that you can find God. Not just know about Him, but to have Him live in your heart. And the more you have of the revelation of the Word of God, the closer to God you are. Draw near unto Him and He'll draw near unto you. So the reformers protected the Word, and died for it's existence.
They said this phrase "Sola Scriptura" meaning only the scripture. They'd already seen the fruit of the traditions of men, theyd tasted religion and now after tasting the real Words of God, it burned in their hearts. They new every man had his own thoughts and ideals and here was the bible, straight from God himself. The judge of all judges, discerner of thoughts and end all to all arguments. With it was Gods power and might and beauty. Sola Scriptura was a phrase by holy men who wanted God more than anything and his Word was the final authority!
