“You chrstians who are daily cutting each other to shreds and disproving each other’s beliefs”
Don’t worry I can take the time to do it to you too.
Without invoking the "new testament?" Or without assuming it's true? I'm pretty sure you're gonna eventually say "Isaiah means thus and such because THE WORD OF GOD in Paul's epistle to so-and-so says so." What if you can't do that?
Plus I think you're missing the point that all forms of chrstianity have done nothing but disprove one another from day one (including yours). And since all criticisms are valid, no form can be true.

I don’t know how you can be “pretty sure,” when every time I have responded to you in threads past, it has always been with the Old Testament, and you have never once given a proper rebuttal for anything that I have said.
If anything, I’m pretty sure you’re feeling cheeky today, since usually you’re not this animated.
“And since all criticisms are valid, no form can be true.”
Huh, where’s that in the Torah?
Not all forms of Christianity have disproved each other and not all criticisms are valid.
Denominationalism is a plague on Christianity. What it should boil down to is not one church doctrine against another, but whether it is found in the word of God, the Old Testament included.
The Law and the Prophets point to the coming Messiah, they give us the criteria by which one can recognize Him.
