Neither did the chief priest believe that Christ was God.

Fortunately, the Pope of Rome emphatically does, so your comment is not relevant.

Actually the comment was quite relevant.

When Jesus responded to the authorities who questioned His diety, He was answering them by using their own words (”Thou has said it.”), though they did not believe in the truth of what they had said.

When I quoted Jesus words, it was in the same context and meaning. The poster had essentially quoted an older version of the Westminster Confession which acknowledges that Christ is the only head of the Church, and the papacy is antichrist.

When the poster stated that I had borne false witness, I succinctly explained the context, which was entirely on point.

I no more bore false witness than did Matthew.
