This post makes no sense.

And what part of the Bible talks about Sola Scriptura?

Rez....

I can't recall what verse you are alluding to in Luke 22, so kindly clarify. As for John 21, I assume you are trying to put some sort of papal primacy into Christ telling Pete to feed His sheep. D[font="Arial"][size="2"]o you seriously think that THAT is a proof for the papacy???? If so, you need to take a wake up pill. Paul also told the elders of the church to "watch over the flock which the Holy Spirit has made you overseers, to feed the church of God" (Ax 20:17; 28). And Peter Himself says to, "feed the flock of God which is among you, taking the oversight" (1 Peter 5:1). Thus, your argument disappears into nothingness.[/size][/font]

Christ tells St. Peter to "strengthen his brothers" in Luke 22.

In John 21, Christ not only tells St. Peter to feed his lambs (the faithful in general) but also to feed His sheep (those over the lambs, the bishops). Of course SS. Peter and Paul would tell bishops to whom he they were writing to feed the flocks. That is what Christ told St. Peter, only Christ's call to feed His lambs and sheep was universal. St. Peter was called to feed Christ's whole flock, including Peter's brother bishops, and not just the faithful in one area.

Also, if you are so opposed to using the Bible to support Catholic doctrine, maybe you should become an Arian, because someone who reads the Bible without the guidance of Christian tradition is probably not going to come up with the Trinity.
