I can look it up anytime I really need to nail it down.
You pick and choose what you feel like believing in the Bible.
Fallen away Catholics didn’t believe so they left. Without a doubt the worse Catholic bashers are fallen away Catholics. They know the truth but are too vain to admit it. No Church doctrine. It’s the WORD OF THE LORD. Right there in that book called the Bible.
I love how you often cut through the piled-up nonsense and bring it all back to the grace of God in Christ! THAT I can get behind. Bless you!
Roger that. I am not into works based religions. If others are, so be it. They can believe whatever they like. That's on them. I just don't accept it myself. Later bro. 😂😀😃🇵🇭
For your credibility you might want to start.
We could as easily say He created ebb tide in the same sentence.
. Have you kept the ENTIRE Law??
me
Now these all of John 6 in context to understand this.
Oh; EVERYONE is eternal.
Mary is in Heaven; helping GOD out.
Now THATs heretical!
Indeed!
The Book warns about making it a HABIT.
Hebrews 10:25
...not forsaking the gathering-together of ourselves as is a habit with some,
"They've got to be taught,
before it's too late..."
False; there are no apostles of the Protestant re-formation of the Christian religion in the image of Luthet, Calvin, Xeingli, and Henry VIII.
Your testimony is shown to be historically false and therefore unreliable.
So was THIS one!!!
5 Then some of the believers who belonged to the party of the Pharisees stood up and said, The Gentiles must be circumcised and required to keep the law of Moses.
6 The apostles and elders met to consider this question. 7 After much discussion, Peter got up and addressed them: Brothers, you know that some time ago God made a choice among you that the Gentiles might hear from my lips the message of the gospel and believe. 8 God, who knows the heart, showed that he accepted them by giving the Holy Spirit to them, just as he did to us. 9 He did not discriminate between us and them, for he purified their hearts by faith. 10 Now then, why do you try to test God by putting on the necks of Gentiles a yoke that neither we nor our ancestors have been able to bear? 11 No! We believe it is through the grace of our Lord Jesus that we are saved, just as they are.
12 The whole assembly became silent as they listened to Barnabas and Paul telling about the signs and wonders God had done among the Gentiles through them. 13 When they finished, James spoke up. Brothers, he said, listen to me. 14 Simon[a] has described to us how God first intervened to choose a people for his name from the Gentiles. 15 The words of the prophets are in agreement with this, as it is written:
16 After this I will return
and rebuild Davids fallen tent.
Its ruins I will rebuild,
and I will restore it,
17 that the rest of mankind may seek the Lord,
even all the Gentiles who bear my name,
says the Lord, who does these things[b]
18 things known from long ago.[c]
19 It is my judgment, therefore, that we should not make it difficult for the Gentiles who are turning to God. 20 Instead we should write to them, telling them to abstain from food polluted by idols, from sexual immorality, from the meat of strangled animals and from blood. 21 For the law of Moses has been preached in every city from the earliest times and is read in the synagogues on every Sabbath.
The apostles and elders, your brothers,
To the Gentile believers in Antioch, Syria and Cilicia:
Greetings.
24 We have heard that some went out from us without our authorization and disturbed you, troubling your minds by what they said. 25 So we all agreed to choose some men and send them to you with our dear friends Barnabas and Paul 26 men who have risked their lives for the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. 27 Therefore we are sending Judas and Silas to confirm by word of mouth what we are writing. 28 It seemed good to the Holy Spirit and to us not to burden you with anything beyond the following requirements: 29 You are to abstain from food sacrificed to idols, from blood, from the meat of strangled animals and from sexual immorality. You will do well to avoid these things.
Farewell.
30 So the men were sent off and went down to Antioch, where they gathered the church together and delivered the letter. 31 The people read it and were glad for its encouraging message. 32 Judas and Silas, who themselves were prophets, said much to encourage and strengthen the believers. 33 After spending some time there, they were sent off by the believers with the blessing of peace to return to those who had sent them. [34] [d] 35 But Paul and Barnabas remained in Antioch, where they and many others taught and preached the word of the Lord.
Since I never ask anyone to take my word for anything, my “credibility” is of no import.
Thats one of the big differences between the Prots and Catholics.
1 Corinthians 11:21
for when you are eating, some of you go ...
As a result, one person remains hungry...
Thats one of the big differences between what the BIBLE states and Catholic teaching; I guess.
(Hopefully the one we can bash the most; right?)
Why don't you do what JESUS said?
(You DO believe in His words; don't you?)
