[EPHESIANS 2:19 KJV] 19 Now therefore ye are no more strangers and foreigners, but fellowcitizens with the saints, and of the household of God;

God has made a way to reconcile the world unto himself and form his household.

[Gal 3:26 KJV] 26 For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus.

By faith in Christ Jesus we have been adopted into the family of God.

[EPHESIANS 2:20 KJV] 20 And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner [stone];

There are differing views in regard to the identity of the apostles and prophets.

Are the apostles such as Peter the foundation?

Are the old testament prophets likewise the foundation?

They both laid the foundation, which was Christ. The apostles preached Jesus as Christ, the Son of God, as well as the prophets. The prophets foretold his coming and his death and resurrection.

[1Pe 2:4-5 KJV] 4 To whom coming, [as unto] a living stone, disallowed indeed of men, but chosen of God, [and] precious, 5 Ye also, as lively stones, are built up a spiritual house, an holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God by Jesus Christ.

Peter spoke of believing Israel as constituting a spiritual house. A house must have a foundation.

[Rev 21:14 KJV] 14 And the wall of the city had twelve foundations, and in them the names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb.

The holy city of God identifies the twelve apostles as being the foundation.

[Eph 4:11-12 KJV] 11 And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers; 12 For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ:

Christ revealed that there were apostles and prophets in the body of Christ church.

[Isa 28:16 KJV] 16 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD, Behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation a stone, a tried stone, a precious corner [stone], a sure foundation: he that believeth shall not make haste.

Without controversy, Christ is the chief cornerstone, no matter what foundation is laid.

[EPHESIANS 2:21 KJV] 21 In whom all the building fitly framed together groweth unto an holy temple in the Lord:

Having laid the foundation, God grows his building.

[1Co 3:9-11 KJV] 9 For we are labourers together with God: ye are God's husbandry, [ye are] God's building. 10 According to the grace of God which is given unto me, as a wise masterbuilder, I have laid the foundation, and another buildeth thereon. But let every man take heed how he buildeth thereupon. 11 For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ.

The building is composed of the believing saints.

Paul says that by grace, he has laid the foundation.

How can Paul say he has laid a foundation when scripture says the foundation was laid upon the apostles and the prophets?

I contend that there are two foundations.

Peter and the apostles, and the prophets laid their foundation in God's household.

Paul laid his foundation in God's household.

God's building is built upon these two foundations.

There can be no other foundation laid but Christ Jesus.

[EPHESIANS 2:22 KJV] 22 In whom ye also are builded together for an habitation of God through the Spirit.

The body of Christ, and the believing remnant of Israel are built together to be an habitation of God.

[Eph 3:14-15 KJV] 14 For this cause I bow my knees unto the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, 15 Of whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named,

The family of God is composed of those in heaven and earth. The believing remnant of Israel, and the body of Christ occupy heaven and earth. Both entities have Christ as their foundation.

Hi Doug who's name will be on the 12 foundation? will paul's name be there? you try to fit paul in there but scripture does not permit this. note that paul is boasting mightily in ;
1Co 3:9-11 KJV] 9 For we are labourers together with God: ye are God's husbandry, [ye are] God's building. 10 According to the grace of God which is given unto me, as a wise masterbuilder, I have laid the foundation, and another buildeth thereon. But let every man take heed how he buildeth thereupon. 11 For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ.

this is paul's opinion and contradict the words of Christ when he said;

Mat 16:18 And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.

Mat 16:19 And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.

Would Christ changed his Mind? assuredly not!

you are so enamoured with Paul that you cannot see clearly and Put Paul before Christ.

Like I warned you before compare all scripture with Christ's own words.

in the texts from paul mentioned in your post, He, Paul ,AGAIN and Again forgets the Father himself that WILL inhabit the New Jerusalem

Rev 21:22 And I saw no temple therein: for the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are the temple of it.

Rev 21:23 And the city had no need of the sun, neither of the moon, to shine in it: for the glory of God did lighten it, and the Lamb is the light thereof.

always remember this;Acts 4:11-12 (NKJV): “This is the ‘stone which was rejected by you builders, which has become the chief cornerstone.’ Nor is there salvation in any other, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved.”

everything absolutely everything was build upon Christ and no one else. This leaves no room for “two foundations” or for Paul laying another one. There is one name, one stone, one foundation—Jesus Christ.

NOTE: NONE of the disciples of Jesus ever called Paul an apostle.

Paul's name would not be on the wall's foundation of the new Jerusalem because he was not a member of the church of the believing remnant of Israel. The remnant will inherit the holy city. Paul inherits the heavenly.
note that paul is boasting mightily in ;
1Co 3:9-11 KJV] 9 For we are labourers together with God: ye are God's husbandry, [ye are] God's building. 10 According to the grace of God which is given unto me, as a wise masterbuilder, I have laid the foundation, and another buildeth thereon.

Paul laid the foundation of the church, the body of Christ. Those who built upon it are the saints of the body of Christ. Paul is speaking of the judgement seat of Christ to receive reward................[1Co 3:14 KJV] 14 If any man's work abide which he hath built thereupon, he shall receive a reward.

Peter was apostle to the church of believing Israel

Foundation is good term. But the Christian foundation leaves Christianity incomplete.

The scriptures do not indicate that we should stop polygamy or concubinage or slavery and the scriptures do not require a wedding ceremony to be married.

We now consider polygamy and concubinage and slavery wrong and believe in church weddings to be married. The second rate status of women is slowly going away from Christian beliefs.
And over the years Christianity has adopted “a lot” of man-made sins.

So as it is today the beliefs of Christianity do not align with several foundational beliefs.

The twelve Apostles were Jewish-Christians, they still observed aspects of the Mosaic Laws and holidays and worshiped in the Temple.

Modern Christianity falls in the category of Gentile-Christians that do not observe Mosaic Laws, Jewish holidays, and we do not worship in Jewish synagogues. More or less the teachings of the Apostle Paul.

Christianity is not anti-Christ. What do you think Christians are doing that is anti-Christ?

And define interfaith?

[EPHESIANS 2:19 KJV] 19 Now therefore ye are no more strangers and foreigners, but fellowcitizens with the saints, and of the household of God;

God has made a way to reconcile the world unto himself and form his household.

[Gal 3:26 KJV] 26 For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus.

By faith in Christ Jesus we have been adopted into the family of God.

[EPHESIANS 2:20 KJV] 20 And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner [stone];

There are differing views in regard to the identity of the apostles and prophets.

They both laid the foundation, which was Christ. The apostles preached Jesus as Christ, the Son of God, as well as the prophets. The prophets foretold his coming and his death and resurrection.

[1Pe 2:4-5 KJV] 4 To whom coming, [as unto] a living stone, disallowed indeed of men, but chosen of God, [and] precious, 5 Ye also, as lively stones, are built up a spiritual house, an holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God by Jesus Christ.

Peter spoke of believing Israel as constituting a spiritual house. A house must have a foundation.

[Rev 21:14 KJV] 14 And the wall of the city had twelve foundations, and in them the names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb.

The holy city of God identifies the twelve apostles as being the foundation.

[Eph 4:11-12 KJV] 11 And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers; 12 For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ:

Christ revealed that there were apostles and prophets in the body of Christ church.

[Isa 28:16 KJV] 16 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD, Behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation a stone, a tried stone, a precious corner [stone], a sure foundation: he that believeth shall not make haste.

Without controversy, Christ is the chief cornerstone, no matter what foundation is laid.

[EPHESIANS 2:21 KJV] 21 In whom all the building fitly framed together groweth unto an holy temple in the Lord:

Having laid the foundation, God grows his building.

[1Co 3:9-11 KJV] 9 For we are labourers together with God: ye are God's husbandry, [ye are] God's building. 10 According to the grace of God which is given unto me, as a wise masterbuilder, I have laid the foundation, and another buildeth thereon. But let every man take heed how he buildeth thereupon. 11 For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ.

The building is composed of the believing saints.

Paul says that by grace, he has laid the foundation.

How can Paul say he has laid a foundation when scripture says the foundation was laid upon the apostles and the prophets?

I contend that there are two foundations.

Peter and the apostles, and the prophets laid their foundation in God's household.

Paul laid his foundation in God's household.

God's building is built upon these two foundations.

There can be no other foundation laid but Christ Jesus.

[EPHESIANS 2:22 KJV] 22 In whom ye also are builded together for an habitation of God through the Spirit.

The body of Christ, and the believing remnant of Israel are built together to be an habitation of God.

[Eph 3:14-15 KJV] 14 For this cause I bow my knees unto the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, 15 Of whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named,

The family of God is composed of those in heaven and earth. The believing remnant of Israel, and the body of Christ occupy heaven and earth. Both entities have Christ as their foundation.
Paul's foundation is not his except that he laid it unto the Gentiles, yet what he laid was a foundation of Christ crucified.

As for what foundation the Church is built upon--certainly, it is Christ who sent the prophets of old by Word, as well as by His apostles, and by those sent to be prophets during the Church age.

However, that foundation being spiritual--of spiritual stones--is mostly unseen--as the Lord said of those born of the Spirit. Meaning, much of what is seen is not of that same spiritual foundation, but is born of the unbelief of "false teachers" in the early Church who not seeing in spirit, did not see the return of Christ in the flesh and began to preach another gospel not of the foundation of of Christ, but one of natural men looking for Christ to come again in the flesh in the distant future instead of "soon" or that "which must shortly take place." Which became the "lie" foretold by Paul that would and has caused "strong delusion."

within the church to return to reading the bible for themselves .
Beleive me , IF folks did this , THEY would have seen for themselves the mess most all of christendom has become
and the grave and deadly danger wolves in wool have led this people into .

A lot of words but no real explanation of what interfaith means.
I get that you do not like the Catholics.
And I will tell you something….A lot of the Catholics here in America do not agree with the Pope(s).
The history of the Catholic Church is horrendous but the Church here in America is better than it ever has been. And even though horrendous they are the oldest Christian “denomination” and without Emperor Constantine and the Catholic Church Christianity might not of survived.

But still “interfaith”….I am thinking that the Catholics are not the only Christian denomination you do not like. With there being over 30,000 denominations you could have a long list of Christians you do not like.

So you do not like interfaith….so what are Christians suppose to do to not be interfaith?
And I ask again, what do think Christians are doing to be anti-Christ?

I like you but I have told you before that from this side of screen you seem to be overly negative. Is that the correct spirit for a Christian?

I assume that you are well versed with the Bible, do you think the Spirit of the scriptures are negativity?

You go and behold this interreligious dialgoue it preaches .
This is a snare to simply unify the denominations with and even the false religoins with the Mutter harlot .
They all in on it now my friend .
Making it seem as a good and loving cause
when in truth its about making us all as one peoples , under what they all believe is GOD .
Interfaith is not of trump or vance , but they sure do its work as do many others
as do many leaders in the false religoins too .
They dont even hide it anymore . If you were paying attention
you had seen what they told them false religoins on stage . A FAT LIE
THAT is the goal of this interfaith interreligoius dialogue .
But they spun it in a way to make it seem as though it were for a good cause . Its all a snare my friend .
And it seems so few even care that truth of Christ is being trod under foot .
NO its all about LETS HAVE US OUR UNITY and our peace and our love and be as one . ITS a delusion friend .
A delusion meant to sound good
meant to seem as though it is love
meant to seem as though its for a good and necessary cause . OH BUT ITS ALL a snare .

There is no way that Christianity is unified…..To the contrary there is little effort to unify the various beliefs. We have over 30,000 denominations. And since the time of Martin Luther people have not been unified and have worked hard to multiply denominations.

Are you thinking your beliefs are the only true beliefs?

You seem to be trying to warn people of something but your messages are so vague that they are pointless. Of no affect because you do not get specific.

Explain what non-interfaith is?
What does non-interfaith look like….act like in the physical?
Explain what you think is the true faith.

Friend they are not trying to unify the beleifs of the denominations or false religoins .
They desire us to simply beleive we serve the same GOD and HIS love .
Grailhunter , two things will have to occur .
You also are going to have to do some homework .
I will try again , later after work to bring you their own words .
When you hear these words they say , DO NOT make any kind of excuse for them . Because beleive me
you will be hearing words of anti christ claoked in wool .
But i will try and bring them again . I will probably have to recruit the help of my sister on this one .
But let us be ready to hear . NOW of course i want you to test anything and everything i myself do say as well .
And here is a real huge help to us all . LETS just get back into the bible for ourselves and be refreshed again .

There is no way that Christianity is unified…..To the contrary there is little effort to unify the various beliefs. We have over 30,000 denominations. And since the time of Martin Luther people have not been unified and have worked hard to multiply denominations.

Are you thinking your beliefs are the only true beliefs?

You seem to be trying to warn people of something but your messages are so vague that they are pointless. Of no affect because you do not get specific.

Explain what non-interfaith is?
What does non-interfaith look like….act like in the physical?
Explain what you think is the true faith.
the unification is not under Doctrine . no that had to be removed .
There was no way they could unify the denominations , OR false religoins
IF said denominations and said false religoins CLUNG to their docrtrines .
Of which , yeah i know there are errors in that .
HOWEVER when TRUTH is omitted , made to seem like distractions , to attain unity
Believe me that is NO UNITY the sheep want . THEY remolded much of christendom
and EVEN the false religoins from within . They preached love non stop , BUT it was not the LOVE of GOD
though as usual some truths were in it so it made it seem so .
I will try and find some things later after work my friend . So be encouraged and be ready .
Because what i bring might shock you to the core my friend . THIS IS ALL a plan to make a one world
religion , only its being called love . to reshape the image of GOD into this other image of this other god who uses the word love .

Feel free to look this up on the catholic archives . they showed it themselves and transalted what he , pope francis , was saying .
Examine the twenty sixteen prayer they made .
It had pope franics speakng about all the worlds religoins .
IT had major leaders of them religoins as well .
The idea was they are all coming TO GOD their own way . Well the pope actually says this . LIE of anti christ right there .
But it goes on
it has a muslim , a buddist , a catholic and i think greek orthodox and etc
And then they all say GOD is love
God is love
God is love . So we seen the lie already brewing .
Now foreward to this huge interreligious dialogue .
On stage were the false religoins as well as some in the catholic and protestestant realm .
AND you should have seen what pope francis told the religoins .
You should understand that is the plan all along .
REMOLD the image of GOD into an image ALL RELIGOINS UNITE UNDER AS ONE .
The GOD is love image , ONLY while that statement is true
ITS NOT GOD OR HIS LOVE they promote . rather the idea we all fine as long as we love one another
and GOD . THE ONLY problem is , WHILE THEY DO quoate the LOVE GOD , LOVE your neighbor
ITS NOT . Because THE DIRE NEED to BLEIEVE ON CHRIST has been omitted . ITS Now a lovey do way to God .
Now how is it love when LOVE REJOICES IN TRUTH
and this rejoices in a lie and makes FAITH IN CHRIST as not necessary . OH its of anti christ all right .
But they are deceiving us .
Because that is not how it was sold to the churches .
THEY sold this to us as a means to simply find common ground for world peace .
But no its about being unequally yoked and they keep on pumping these suggestions into all religoins as well as christendome .
Satan knows how to make something sound good and even necessary and even as love . ONLY IT AINT .

[EPHESIANS 2:19 KJV] 19 Now therefore ye are no more strangers and foreigners, but fellowcitizens with the saints, and of the household of God;

God has made a way to reconcile the world unto himself and form his household.

[Gal 3:26 KJV] 26 For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus.

By faith in Christ Jesus we have been adopted into the family of God.

[EPHESIANS 2:20 KJV] 20 And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner [stone];

There are differing views in regard to the identity of the apostles and prophets.

Are the apostles such as Peter the foundation?

Are the old testament prophets likewise the foundation?

They both laid the foundation, which was Christ. The apostles preached Jesus as Christ, the Son of God, as well as the prophets. The prophets foretold his coming and his death and resurrection.

[1Pe 2:4-5 KJV] 4 To whom coming, [as unto] a living stone, disallowed indeed of men, but chosen of God, [and] precious, 5 Ye also, as lively stones, are built up a spiritual house, an holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God by Jesus Christ.

Peter spoke of believing Israel as constituting a spiritual house. A house must have a foundation.

[Rev 21:14 KJV] 14 And the wall of the city had twelve foundations, and in them the names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb.

The holy city of God identifies the twelve apostles as being the foundation.

[Eph 4:11-12 KJV] 11 And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers; 12 For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ:

Christ revealed that there were apostles and prophets in the body of Christ church.

[Isa 28:16 KJV] 16 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD, Behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation a stone, a tried stone, a precious corner [stone], a sure foundation: he that believeth shall not make haste.

Without controversy, Christ is the chief cornerstone, no matter what foundation is laid.

[EPHESIANS 2:21 KJV] 21 In whom all the building fitly framed together groweth unto an holy temple in the Lord:

Having laid the foundation, God grows his building.

[1Co 3:9-11 KJV] 9 For we are labourers together with God: ye are God's husbandry, [ye are] God's building. 10 According to the grace of God which is given unto me, as a wise masterbuilder, I have laid the foundation, and another buildeth thereon. But let every man take heed how he buildeth thereupon. 11 For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ.

The building is composed of the believing saints.

Paul says that by grace, he has laid the foundation.

How can Paul say he has laid a foundation when scripture says the foundation was laid upon the apostles and the prophets?

I contend that there are two foundations.

Peter and the apostles, and the prophets laid their foundation in God's household.

Paul laid his foundation in God's household.

God's building is built upon these two foundations.

There can be no other foundation laid but Christ Jesus.

[EPHESIANS 2:22 KJV] 22 In whom ye also are builded together for an habitation of God through the Spirit.

The body of Christ, and the believing remnant of Israel are built together to be an habitation of God.

[Eph 3:14-15 KJV] 14 For this cause I bow my knees unto the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, 15 Of whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named,

The family of God is composed of those in heaven and earth. The believing remnant of Israel, and the body of Christ occupy heaven and earth. Both entities have Christ as their foundation.
Sorry but the bible says there is only one foundation, one body and one building!

As Paul wrote in Ephesians:

11 Wherefore remember, that ye being in time past Gentiles in the flesh, who are called Uncircumcision by that which is called the Circumcision in the flesh made by hands;

12 That at that time ye were without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope, and without God in the world:

13 But now in Christ Jesus ye who sometimes were far off are made nigh by the blood of Christ.

14 For he is our peace, who hath made both one, and hath broken down the middle wall of partition between us;

15 Having abolished in his flesh the enmity, even the law of commandments contained in ordinances; for to make in himself of twain one new man, so making peace;

16 And that he might reconcile both unto God in one body by the cross, having slain the enmity thereby:

17 And came and preached peace to you which were afar off, and to them that were nigh.

18 For through him we both have access by one Spirit unto the Father.

I would not give two cents for the Vatican. But friends don't let friends live in ignorance. You need to talk to few Catholics here in the states. Granted you will still have culture shock but it is not anything like the Vatican.

Most Catholic will not have anything good to say about any other religion.

Most Protestants will not have anything good to say about any other religion.

And only a certain percentage supports Israel and the Jews.
