You can't show you have the authoritative understanding of scripture and you can't show any evidence of anyone in the church teaching what you believe before the 1500s. I know you whine about history but your beliefs are only 500 years old. For 3x as long as that Christiandom taught Jesus being present in the Eucharist. If you don't like it I don't really care because you present nothing that would make me take you seriously.lol.. I am not arguing, I am just posting ALL the words of God in john 6, and not just 6 f the words f God.
You accuse me of rejecting the word of God. Yet you will not even discuss it.
Again, You hurt yourself. The more you talk. The more you refuse to answer my questions about the words of Jesus in John 6. The more unbelievable you are.
and the more you prove you are spoon fed by men. And are following them, and not the word of God
I don't claim an authoritative understanding of Scripture but God gave me a brain that works and the ability to read. What I do know from using the brain God gave me is people connected to the apostles, who know far more than I do, understood Jesus to be speaking literally in John 6 and those same people defended the church from attacks by people who understand John 6 the way you do. And for 1500 years the church they defended taught and believed Jesus was speaking literally.its like beating a dead horse.
one thing we know for a fact. @nedsk has shown no authoritative understanding of the book of John. Unlike others who have taken him through the whole conversation and shown ALL the words of Jesus.
@nedsk just wants to look at 7 words.
Then he passes off any authority to some church who ruled with an iron fist. and killed anyone who did nto agree with them, as his proof he is right we are wrong.
I will pray for him..
@Eternally Grateful, who is interpreting the letters of John 2,000 years after they were written, believes that he is right when it comes to the Real Presence in the Eucharist and that a person that actually spoke to and was a student of the Apostle John is wrong about the Real Presence. And then EG has the gall to say that YOU have "shown no authoritative understanding of the book of John" as if EG has an authoritative understanding????I don't claim an authoritative understanding of Scripture but God gave me a brain that works and the ability to read. What I do know from using the brain God gave me is people connected to the apostles, who know far more than I do, understood Jesus to be speaking literally in John 6 and those same people defended the church from attacks by people who understand John 6 the way you do. And for 1500 years the church they defended taught and believed Jesus was speaking literally.
Now if you actually believe I would ignore them to listen you without you offering some evidence of a higher understanding other than, because you say so, then you really need to think again.

Ummmm......me thinks that Ignatius, a student of the Apostle John, would have a more "authoritative understanding" of Johns writings than you EG soooooo there's that little problem you have!its like beating a dead horse.

Yes pompous is their calling card.@Eternally Grateful, who is interpreting the letters of John 2,000 years after they were written, believes that he is right when it comes to the Real Presence in the Eucharist and that a person that actually spoke to and was a student of the Apostle John is wrong about the Real Presence. And then EG has the gall to say that YOU have "shown no authoritative understanding of the book of John" as if EG has an authoritative understanding????
EG and his ilk ignore Ignatius, who actually has an authoritative understanding of John, and then claims a better understanding of John's book than Ignatius......Simply fascinating and a bit pompous.![]()
Lol.....YOU are listening to Jesus however YOU reject the teachings of the Apostolic Fathers who were students of the Apostles!! Simply fascinating! @nedsk and I repeat words from Scripture which match up with the words from students of the Apostles and you say that WE are rejecting Jesus words? You put greater value on the words of men from 500 years than the words of men who were students of the Apostles.....I don't get it.Niether one of you listen to jesus
You listen to 7 words he says and rejects every other things he said
again, You are not going to sit here and falsly accuse people of doing what you yourself are doing.. that is called hypocrisy.
Own up and respond why you reject what Jesus said
I really don't understand what EG and the others don't get. Some of the church fathers were disciples of the apostles but we're really supposed to ignore them to listen to EG? It's astoundingUmmmm......me thinks that Ignatius, a student of the Apostle John, would have a more "authoritative understanding" of Johns writings than you EG soooooo there's that little problem you have!
PS..........The Protestant men you adore from 500 years ago ruled with an iron fist also by killing their fellow Protestants and Catholics who did not agree with them sooooooo would you like to address that also?
To put their teachings over men who were students of the Apostles is simply fascinating to me. I really really really really don't understand that thought process.Yes pompous is their calling card.
Romans 11First, you post the exact scripture that says once you’re saved you are always saved.
How unfortunate you appreciate that what denies the Gospel.I have not seen you on other threads so far but I like you already.
And, 2nd Timothy 2:13
“If we are faithless, he remains faithful, for he cannot deny himself.”

Romans 11

I don't either. And God gave me that same ability.I don't claim an authoritative understanding of Scripture but God gave me a brain that works and the ability to read.
back to this argumentWhat I do know from using the brain God gave me is people connected to the apostles, who know far more than I do, understood Jesus to be speaking literally in John 6 and those same people defended the church from attacks by people who understand John 6 the way you do. And for 1500 years the church they defended taught and believed Jesus was speaking literally.
I do not care who you are or what church you belong to or who you knewNow if you actually believe I would ignore them to listen you without you offering some evidence of a higher understanding other than, because you say so, then you really need to think again.
why do you not?I really don't understand what EG and the others don't get.
lol.. And? There were false teachers in the church while the word was still being written.Some of the church fathers were disciples of the apostles but we're really supposed to ignore them to listen to EG? It's astounding
Peter denied him three times.. Did Jesus deny peter?“…if we deny him, he also will deny us…” (2Ti 2:12, KJV)

Spoken to the gentile church, Not induvidual believers“Behold therefore the goodness and severity of God: on them which fell, severity; but toward thee, goodness, if thou continue in his goodness: otherwise thou also shalt be cut off.” (Rom 11:22, KJV)

I don't see where that says the seal of God's Holy Spirit will be retracted and they shall be damned to die in their sins again.“Behold therefore the goodness and severity of God: on them which fell, severity; but toward thee, goodness, if thou continue in his goodness: otherwise thou also shalt be cut off.” (Rom 11:22, KJV)
