You have a problem quoting the Bible? How did Jesus deal with the Devil and the Pharisees? He quoted the Bible. You seem quite uninterested in discussing your ideas on the basis of scripture, only on the basis of historical tradition - again, just like the Jews of old.
i have no problem quoting the bible, i just have a problem with folks cherry picking verses OUTSIDE of the history of the church at the time of the apostles, and their successors.
how do you think heresies started? by not following the proper authority given by Christ, to his apostles and their successors, but instead, picking and choosing verses of scripture that suits their particular theological viewpoint.
those heresies were each time, stomped out by the authoritatve teaching church, using its devinely appointed authority as his teaching church, in addition to the word, and sacred tradition, all historically verifiable.
Please identify the “Jews of old”.
