Also, in another email that I sent to Chris about the continuation of this conversation I said this:

ya and he also said that hes a sola scriptura guy. so i said

ok, who did paul write his letters too? early churches right? so then how were they already established?

o well they had the scripture passed on to them through oral tradition.

right… but what about the pauline epistles? how could they have been passed on if they werent yet written.

o well they had already established based on the other books.

right then i guess we don’t need Pauls letters?

no they corrected the early churches, they were led astray.

so then i guess by that logic the church didn’t officially start until Paul “corrected” it right?

wel no… umm…

and we have some of that circular reasoning. of course he claims calvinism too.
