Beggars All: Reformation And Apologetics: The Utter Nonsense of the Clarity of Scripture?

James Swan has written a post which applies not to Roman Catholics who reject "Sola Scriptura" but anyone who claims that the Bible is not clear enough to be a standard upon which we will be judged by what we be believe and act accordingly. He quotes Matthew 22:23-32 and then writes:

The Lord Jesus clearly held these men responsible for knowing and understanding the Scriptures. Were the Sadducees supposed to respond, "How could we? We did not think the Bible was clear and we all disagree about what it says!"

Who should one trust? Those who attack the Bible in the name of Rome or Jesus? This person says the Bible isn't clear and to think it is is "utter nonsense." Jesus says "have you not read what God said to you" and holds those hearing him responsible for what they read. Think about it.

I agree. So the question becomes why don't we all agree on what Scripture says? Because we don't all want to do what it says.
