Rome can’t win on scriptural grounds, which is why they make it about authority structures instead, but Scripture itself corrected Rome’s errors at the Reformation, proving Scripture’s sufficiency without their magisterium.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Right on.

Paul outright anathematized anyone who preached "another gospel (which is not another)" - **himself included** - so it seems rather important, I think, that we ask the question: _who gets the gospel right_? And don't miss the vital point that he included himself in this warning: that means the most important thing is not "who is saying it" but "what is being said."

Exactly. Paul’s self curse in Galatians 1:8-9 proves the content of the gospel is more authoritative than any person proclaiming it, apostle or otherwise. Truth judges authority, not the reverse.

"Truth judges authority, not the reverse." Banger!
