Why We Believe in Sola Scriptura | A Protestant Perspective | Weighed in the Balance Ep. 2

Send us a text

In this episode of Weighed in the Balance, Rev. Jonathan Brooks (Presbyterian Church in America), Rev. Alex Lott (Associate Reformed Presbyterian Church), and philosophy graduate Josh Goodwin sit down to examine one of the most foundational — and controversial — doctrines of the Protestant Reformation: Sola Scriptura.

Roman Catholic theology teaches that Scripture and Tradition, interpreted by the Magisterium, are equal sources of divine authority. But Protestants argue that the Bible is the only infallible rule of faith and practice. So who's right?

We weigh claims like:

- Can the early Church Fathers be used to support the Protestant view?
- Is personal interpretation dangerous without an infallible Church?
- What do we actually mean by "Scripture alone"?

Whether you’re a committed Catholic, a curious Protestant, or just someone seeking truth, this episode will challenge you to consider what ultimate authority you’re standing on.
