I wish I could say that all evangelicals today have a crisp, accurate grasp of sola scriptura. I am hopeful that many understand how a Protestant view of Scripture and tradition differs from Rome's position. However, I am less confident that evangelicals understand the difference between sola and solo scriptura, for in some cases the latter is assumed to be the identity of the former. Oftentimes, those who follow Rome hold the position that the Reformers' - and those who follow their lead - hold to a solo rather than SOLA Scriptura doctrine. We see that argument frequently on these threads. This article is a good start in rebutting that false assertion. Thanks.

Granted that that isn’t what the “reformers” intended. That is where their rebellion has led in the vast majority of cases, however. It ought to be judged by results, not good intentions.
