    Joe Heschmeyer Tried to Cook My Sola Scriptura Argument (Did He Get Burned?)

    Joe Heschmeyer stepped into the kitchen to take on the Attribute Inscripturation Thesis (AIT). Did he get burned? Let's find out. Here's what you'll learn: - How the AIT actually works (the engine, not the gloss) - Why exemplar causation plus kind-correspondence is the bridge from "God-breathed" to "uniquely authoritative" - Why Joe's sculpture analogy doesn't refute the AIT, it proves it - The material vs. formal sufficiency distinction Joe blurs, and why his examples attack the position most Catholics grant - What perspicuity actually claims, and why the eunuch, the parables, and 2 Peter 3.16 fit the doctrine instead of breaking it - Why "the Church is built by Christ" doesn't bestow sovereign authority on the Church - The two hits Joe genuinely landed and why the AIT's engine survives them - Why the turnip reductio dies on kind-correspondence - How to respond to five common objections to the AIT
