The idea that the Bible ALONE is the sole rule of faith, isn’t Christian.

The teaching can’t even be found in the Bible.

Nevertheless, non-Catholic Christians hold many truths, and the Holy Spirit undoubtedly works through these churches to varying degrees.

But only Christ’s Church possesses the fullness of truth.

To reject the infallibility of Christ’s Church is to reject the inerrancy of Scripture, since the Church wrote, preserved and canonized Scripture.

First off, you have to read the bible to find out; not just take someone's word for it...

And secondly, it's all over the bible...You come up with a rule of faith not found in the bible, you need to get rid of it, pronto...

To reject the infallibility of Christ’s Church is to reject the inerrancy of Scripture, since the Church wrote, preserved and canonized Scripture.

In which case, your religion should dissolve itself, since the scripture it wrote condemns itself in so many places...

I definitely agree with that, though I think you and I mean different things when we use the phrase “Christ’s Church”.

I include the bible and prayer.

And I think it is. Anything else is Mormon. Or worse.
