Peace to you all, and thank you all for responding!
I will respond to you all, but I am going to respond to the OP question myself as well:
Sola Scriptura -- Scripture alone -- concerns the relation between Scripture and tradition, and affirms that Scripture is to be understood as the sole source of divine revelation, the only inspired, infallible, final, and authoritative norm of faith and practice... Scripture is “God-breathed” (2 Tim. 3:16); what Scripture says, God says
While I absolutely agree with what was first mentioned by benchwarmer (post 2), I bolded and underlined the major flaw that stands out to me.
Scripture is absolutely not the sole source of divine revelation. Never mind that it could not possibly be the sole source of divine revelation or there would be no scripture to begin with, that definition of "Sola Scriptura"
leaves Christ out, even puts scripture above Christ <- yet it is Christ who is the Word of God, Christ who is the Truth, Christ whose voice we are to listen TO.
Even IN what is written (though this is testimony rather than scripture), God said, "
This is my Son, whom I love. Listen to Him."
Is Christ not the source of divine revelation as the Word of God? Is He not alive? Does He not speak, and call His sheep by name, and lead them? Do His sheep not listen to HIS voice, and follow HIM? Where is the faith in Him?
Someone who does not have faith in Him, I can understand them looking to the 'bible' for truth, for answers, for authority, for 'divine revelation'. But to someone who does have faith in Him, why not simply listen to Him, come straight to the source? At the very least have faith that you CAN come to Him, straight to the source, and ask for ears to hear, so as to hear the truth from THE Truth.

Anyway, though there are other errors, that is the biggest error that stands out to me.
Peace again to you, and to your loved ones,
your servant and a slave of Christ Jaheshua,
