Sola Scriptura Syllogism
I was clearing out some old files on my harddrive today and came across I snippet I copied from somewhere on the Internet:
1. Sola Scriptura [implicitly] says everything we need to know that is necessary for our salvation comes from the Bible alone.
2. Knowing what Scriptures are inspired and what Scriptures are not inspired is necessary for our salvation.
3. Knowing what Scriptures are inspired and what Scriptures are not inspired cannot be known from the Bible.
4. Therefore, Sola Scriptura cannot be true.
I’m not sure, but this seems like something Patrick Vanderpool would write…

TOT: How to read the Bible for all its worth….
It has taken me a while, but I finally got around to editing the audio from my recent Theology On Tap session entitled “Reading the Bible for all its worth”. The audio quality wasn’t great, but I’ve cleaned it up the best I can. For the benefit of those who couldn’t attend my talk, I have created a YouTube video which plays the audio synchronized with my slides:
Extra Files
The video doesn’t contain the Q&A after the talk or the “Mega Bible Study” discussion which took place afterwards. The audio for these sections is available below:

Win fabulous prizes!
In my talk I recommend looking for one thing at each Sunday Mass to take away for your spiritual nourishment during the rest of the week and I suggest writing this down in a Mass Journal. I have six Mass journals to give away!
Simply leave a comment below describing an insight from a recent talk, sermon or Bible study which touched you. It doesn’t have to be earth shattering, just something which you might record in your new Mass Journal! The first six comments will win.
“You don’t need God to be a good person”
Trent Horn’s new book Answering Atheism has finally been released. Over the next few weeks I’m going to continue posting one of his short videos responding to the common claims of Atheists:
There have been some good discussions so far. I had originally planned on doing a competition here to win copies of Trent’s book, but after these recent exchanges, I’m just offering them to anyone (theist/atheist/agnostic/…) who joins in the discussion (while my stocks last!).
