Not by Scripture Alone: A Latter-Day Saint Refutation of Sola Scriptura

This is perhaps the most sustained critique of the formal doctrine of Protestantism, Sola Scriptura, from a Latter-day Saint in print that I am aware of. All the "proof-texts" are exegeted carefully, including 1 Cor 4:6, 2 Tim 3:16-17, Rev 22:18-19, Rom 15:4, Acts 17:11, and Isa 8:20. There is also an appendix discussing important patristic-era authors and how they did not function in a way commensurate with the doctrine/practice of Sola Scriptura and the formal sufficiency of the bible (e.g., Irenaeus of Lyons). I also discuss texts and arguments one should *not* use against this doctrine, such as the (false) claim there are 30,000+ Protestant denominations. When one is finished reading this volume, one will be equipped to be able to answer all possible biblical "proofs" for the formal sufficiency of the Bible as well as discuss the overwhelming exegetical problems with this doctrine. Furthermore, any Protestant reading this volume will, on the basis of biblical exegesis, be forced to reconsider their adherence to this man-made doctrine, though they will find the tone of this volume respectful and scholarly.
