Are you on drugs?

I’M a PROTESTANT.

I don’t accept your RC dogma or traditions.

News Flash! The Bishop of Rome is NOT the absolute un-fallible leader of all CHRISTIANS on earth.

News Flash! We had several WARS over that, and WE Protestants won those WARS.

News Flash! I DON’T CARE what you RCs believe.

News Flash! YOU aren’t OUR Lord.

I didn’t want to be rude, but YOUR dogma is YOUR dogma, NOT mine.

And YES I am still a CHRISTIAN.

See you at the gate!

I don’t get it, WnF — Cothrige quoted scripture, 2 Peter 1:1-4. and you said that you didn’t care about it. Why? Isn’t it scripture, infallible?

You are confused. You have rejected a book of the Bible, not a Catholic teaching, because it was written by Peter and not Jesus. Silly. You insist that you are a Protestant, but I can't be so sure. No Protestant I know rejects 2 Peter for such a silly reason. You are on your own there.

Let's recap this for you.

YOU: from post #18

There is no “divinity” possible in that finite being, in us.

The mere concept is absurd neo-pagan pride.

THE BIBLE: from post #22

"For indeed his divine power has granted us all things pertaining to life and piety through the knowledge of him who has called us by his own glory and power - through which he has granted us the very great and precious promises, so that through them you may become partakers of the divine nature, having escaped from the corruption of that lust which is in the world."

YOU: from post #31, which is posted in response to #22 above.

I don’t care what anybody but our Lord says.

ANYBODY.

You can cite being a Protestant all you want, but 2 Peter is Protestant scripture too, and Peter here refutes your novel ideas about sanctification. Period. See you at the gate.
