Why Protestants should read Thomas Aquinas 

Sola scripture is all about the sufficiency of Scripture for all things that pertain to the knowledge of God and the life of faith. That does not mean ignore church history. It would be utterly foolish to neglect what the church has said over the centuries on what God has revealed to us in His word. Hence this video.

It doesn’t mean we blindly submit to everything Aquinas taught. Are you aware that Aquinas was at odds with official Roman Catholic doctrine in several areas? When we read Aquinas we should test what he wrote against what the Scriptures declare, like the Bereans in Acts.

Lol. Yes, because obviously 'sola scriptura' means we never ever read any other book or human writing, ever...... in fact, I'm actually not even here, reading and writing my own words, shhhhh...

@Andreas Adi Aquinas himself accepted sola scriptura: 'Sacred doctrine makes use also of the authority of philosophers in those questions in which they were able to know the truth by natural reason, as Paul quotes a saying of Aratus: "As some also of your own poets said: For we are also His offspring" (Acts 17:28). Nevertheless, sacred doctrine makes use of these authorities as extrinsic and probable arguments; but properly uses the authority of the canonical Scriptures as an incontrovertible proof, and the authority of the doctors of the Church as one that may properly be used, yet merely as probable. For our faith rests upon the revelation made to the apostles and prophets who wrote the canonical books, and not on the revelations (if any such there are) made to other doctors.'

@@samueleastlund6137 that's not what sola scriptura actually is, sola sciptura means you should only listen to the bible as the sole authority and nothing else, not just the weak claim that scripture is really important and without it you can't do or say anything

which augustine?

@@ngzchongsoon9147 Saint Augustine of Hippo

what does "catholics" means?

@@ngzchongsoon9147 members of the Catholic Church

You know he didn’t right?

Your zeal is not according to knowledge. What happens when the traditions you are taught in the Roman church today differ from the traditions and teachings of the apostles in holy Scripture? Why do you think there was a Protestant reformation?

Christ and the apostles said that too XD

'"All you need is the Bible and the Holy Spirit will guide you" -says every founder of every Protestant denomination ever.' Source?

Many of them graduated from college/universities where they read tons of books other than the bible.

😂33.000???

Instead of the one false church at Rome with its false Gospel and its' "33,000" errors, superstitions, meaningless doctrines, perversions, abuses, compromises, ever shifting doctrine and unbiblical practices of Rome.

@@dpastor6631 Where there is man there is mess. We do not go out and create our own denomination, that is the pinnacle of pride. We have faith in Christ that the pontifical Catholic Commission is interpreting the Bible as best as they can and we must be humble enough to have faith in that. I dislike the current Pope yet I respect his position and will honour it. We stick together, despite disagreements. The Catholic church was the first and is the ONLY true CHURCH. Does that mean protestants are not saved? NO!. But you're on a lifeboat instead of being on the ship. Come back and God bless

@@dpastor6631 so true.

@@harrykimura clearly you don’t know your history. luther and the reformers wanted to change the roman catholic church from the inside, they didn’t want to leave it. it was the roman catholics who kicked us out, it wasn’t us who left.
