Fr. Leo discusses why the Protestant principle of Sola Scriptura—the belief that the Bible alone is the sole authority of faith—is a dangerous and divisive teaching. He argues that without the Church’s magisterial authority and sacred tradition, individual interpretation leads to confusion, fragmentation, and over 45,000 denominations. Drawing from history, he explains how the Bible itself was compiled through the authority of the Catholic Church and councils such as Hippo and Carthage. Fr. Leo contrasts Protestant essentialism with the Catholic harmony of Scripture, Tradition, and Church authority. He offers practical guidance on how Catholics can read the Bible correctly through study, community, and lectio divina. Ultimately, he concludes that sola scriptura is an “evil teaching” not because of its believers, but because it divides the Body of Christ and undermines unity in truth.
