Justin Hibbard continues our series on Sacred Scripture by looking at how the heresy of gnosticism provides the context for much of the New Testament. Which writers and passages seem to specifically focus on combatting gnosticism? How does that context help us better understand the meaning of Scripture? And in what ways do we see gnosticism today?

In continuation of our series on Sacred Scripture, Justin Hibbard takes a look at the foundational Protestant doctrine of Sola Scriptura and demonstrates why it is an illogical, unbiblical, its unworkable, universally inapplicable, impractical, its subjective, and hypocritical premise. Discover why the Catholic Church has rejected this 500-year-old doctrine as a heresy and why we should rejoice in having infallible sources of truth beyond just Scripture.

Why did the Protestant reformers remove 7 books along with parts of Daniel and Esther from the Bible that had been existence since the 4th century?
