- Jesus established ONE Church (Matt. 16:16-19). He p
rayed fervently that this Church remain ONE - as He and the Father are ONE (John 17:20-23). There is NO other.
- Jesus is Truth itself (John 14:6).
- Jesus promised His Church that the Holy Spirit would guide her to ALL Truth (John 16:12-15).
- The Church is the Pillar and Foundation of Truth (1 Tim. 3:15).
- The Church is the Body of Christ and He is the Head (1 Cor. 12:12-31, Eph. 4:3-6, Col. 1:8).
- The Church is the FULLNESS of Christ (Eph. 1:22-23).
- Jesus identifies His very SELF with His Church (Acts 9:4-5).
- Jesus gave His Church supreme Authority on earth and whatever it ordains on earth is also ordained in heaven (Matt. 16:18-19, 18:15-18, Luke 10:16, John 20:21-23).
cult you belong to at aggressivechristianity.net . .
No - YOU must decide whether or not to belong to His Church.God decides, and He has...and I'm good with that.
Yes - ALL of this coming from a person who belongs to an online cult (aggressivechristianity.net).Oh we all know you know nothing of the things off God , its your attitude,
Mat 15:16 And Jesus said, Are ye also yet without understanding?
Mat 15:17 Do not ye yet understand, that whatsoever entereth in at the mouth goeth into the belly, and is cast out into the draught?
Mat 15:18 But those things which proceed out of the mouth come forth from the heart; and they defile the man.
Mat 15:19 For out of the heart proceed evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false witness, blasphemies:
Mat 15:20 These are the things which defile a man: but to eat with unwashen hands defileth not a man.
This
you talk "AT" everyone from you high seat, like the pharisees. demanding very loudly, that everyone listen to you. Its your attitiude that is bringing you down, and just like your church whom you are joined to, this bit
1Co_6:16 What? know ye not that he which is joined to an harlot is one body? for two, saith he, shall be one flesh.
you are catholic by name , catholic by nature, you joined the catholic church and became a catholic, but those whom are joined to Christ
1Co 6:17 But he that is joined unto the Lord is one spirit.
thats why we are called "christians".
when a man joins any religion he becomes a part of that religion, and God forbid, that Jesus try and remove that religion out of the ma, bit like trying to remove teh safety blanket from a child,
this bit
you knives have dulled, it is illegal to burn people who stand up to at the stake anymore, and has being for centuries. And according to you who says Christ is joined to your church, would make Jesus,
a liar
a thief
a murderer
a hypocrit
a molester of children
a drug dealer
a homosexual
since this is all teh fruit of your church, you know this bit
Mat 7:15 Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.
Mat 7:16 Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?
Mat 7:17 Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit.
Mat 7:18 A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.
Mat 7:19 Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.
Mat 7:20 Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them.
and we all know your fruit its hagning from teh branches for all to see so clearly.
Have a lovely day.
Hi BG,I totally agree...many people “ defend” what they believe ...and feel like they are doing God some kind of favour ...
I was taught many years ago.- “Believe the “ light” that God has given you.
Always be prepared for fresh light to be shone or something new, and also, whatever you believe is true..HOLD it LIGHTLY...because it may be ‘good ‘ but it may not be the whole truth...so stay teachable”
I have lived by that rule for many a year.
I feel sorry for those who are dogmatic. We have not seen the revelation of ALL truth yet.
?why, after 2,000 years, hasn't God revealed to us that Truth?
I am.No - YOU must decide whether or not to belong to His Church.
He gives you the means - but the choice is yours . . .
Just jumping in to defend the APOSTLES nothing else, lets hope you do not fall asleep concerning Christ. They are Apostles=teachers of the will of Christ because Christ mad them as such and teach what the Holy Spirit tells them to teach. I am not going to get into all the technical wording that Catholics like to spew, but Peter is the rock , if one stands on his words they will do so to great avail. Much more respect should be shown to YOUR ELDERS =Apostles whose lessons are shown us to guide us. Peter is the rock because he fell to such a depth that no other apostle would have survived (Denial of our Lord) and he recovered because he grabbed hold of his faith in Christ and would not let that sin carry him off like Judas. He is an example in strength and overcoming fear of Death, which is what caused him to deny Christ to begin with. He is the ROCK for this reason and he who stands upon him will not doubt Christ anymore! God Bless!You mean those same guys who fell asleep 3 TIMES while Jesus prayed? ... Yeah...right...very convincing!
i would be a lot more inclined to believe this if i saw less ppl standing on Peter just to get better aim lolHe is the ROCK for this reason and he who stands upon him will not doubt Christ anymore!

this is tempting to believe but imo popes rep the people just like any leader does. Iow popes do not commit heresies in a vacuum.If all the Popes had done that, a lot heresies would have been avoided.
You too have your rocks mixed up.
Christ is the Vine, and the apostles are the branches (small b).
But I mean no disrespect, they served Him in spite of their weaknesses, as it is with all who love the Lord. Even so, no man is the Head, except Christ...and the body is one, not having different levels of hierarchy, but rather all serve equally, even leaders.
