If I should in all faith and trust, kneel before my Maker and ask for a fish, what will He give me? If I should ask for wisdom, what will He give me? If I ask for His Spirit, what will He give me? If I ask to be led into all truth, what will He give me? Those who are deceived are those who are NOT in my position. They rely on man. They kneel before God asking for wisdom, then ask man what he thinks. They kneel and ask God for truth, then go to their priest and ask what he thinks. Then they attack others who sought God and found peace and safety and truth in Him. They put their 'church' above God. Then judge and condemn the thoughts and minds and motives of those that disagree with their 'church'...their 'church' has become their god.Who would that be? We agree on many things but you guys are too rebellious to agree with much of anything.
Bible alone theology is not found anywhere in scriptureAnd don't bother to name all the crazies who have 'claimed' to hear from God and led people to suicide etc. That is NOT what I am talking about, and you know it. And as for Matthew 18:17, are you suggesting we take a matter to all 2 bllion people? Common sense Mary dictates we take it to our local congregation. And the church, any church, is only a pillar of truth if she agrees to scripture.There is a list of scriptures below that you will ignore anywayI asked BOL on another thread for the RCC's scriptural justification for Sunday sacredness. I would ask you Mary the same.That lie is exposed below.Other than the excuse of taking the law into their own hands claiming "all authority", what justification was there for the RCC to change the ten commandments in her catechisms?
How long have you been in a sabbatarian cult and what year was it founded? It won't be able to trace its doctrines before the 18th century so why should anyone take you seriously?
From the Saturday Sabbath to Sunday as the primary day of worship was done BY THE APOSTLES, with plenty of supporting evidence. And there was never a change in the 10 commandments, that is a myth produced by sabbatarian CULTS.
Sunday worship, scripture
Matt. 28:1; Mark 16:2,9; John 20:1,19- the Gospel writers purposely reveal Jesus’ resurrection and appearances were on Sunday. This is because Sunday had now become the most important day in the life of the Church, not in the life of bizarre cults 18 centuries later.
Acts 20:7 – this text shows the apostolic tradition of gathering together to celebrate the Eucharist on Sunday, the “first day of the week.” Luke documents the principle worship was on Sunday because this was one of the departures from the Jewish form of worship.
1 Cor. 16:2 – Paul instructs the Corinthians to make contributions to the churches “on the first day of the week,” which is Sunday. This is because the primary day of Christian worship is Sunday.
Col. 2:16-17 – Paul teaches that the Sabbath was only a shadow of what was fulfilled in Christ, and says “let no one pass judgment any more over a Sabbath.”
2 Thess. 2:15 – we are to hold fast to apostolic tradition, whether it is oral or written. The 2,000 year-old tradition of the Church is that the apostles changed the Sabbath day of worship from Saturday to Sunday.
Heb. 4:8-9 – regarding the day of rest, if Joshua had given rest, God would not later speak of “another day,” which is Sunday, the new Sabbath. Sunday is the first day of the week and the first day of the new creation brought about by our Lord’s resurrection, which was on Sunday.
Heb. 7:12 – when there is a change in the priesthood, there is a change in the law as well. Because we have a new Priest and a new sacrifice, we also have a new day of worship, which is Sunday.
Rev 1:10 – John specifically points out that he witnesses the heavenly Eucharistic liturgy on Sunday, the Lord’s day, the new day of rest in Christ.
Matt. 16:19; 18:18 – whatever the Church binds on earth is bound in heaven. Since the resurrection, Mass has been principally celebrated on Sunday.
Man made cults don't know what "first day of the week" means.
On the Lord’s own day, assemble in common to break bread and offer thanks, but first confess your sins so that your sacrifice may be pure.”
Didache, 14 (A.D. 90).
“If, therefore, those who were brought up in the ancient order of things have come to the possession of a new hope, no longer observing the Sabbath, but living in the observance of the Lord’s Day, on which also our life has sprung up again by Him and by His death–whom some deny, by which mystery we have obtained faith, and therefore endure, that we may be found the disciples of Jesus Christ, our only Master.”
Ignatius, To the Magnesians, 9:1 (A.D. 110).
But you have nothing to do with the church of 110 AD.
false charge of changing the 10 Commandments:
“NIV, KJV, NKJV, RSV etc. have all Gods Commandments intact. HOWEVER, the Catholic Catechism has totally deleted the 2nd commandment, and split the 10th into 2 to make up 10 commandments. They CHANGED Gods Law!!!!”
Now let us just see who really are the ‘they’ who ‘CHANGED God’s Law’…
Protestant sources of their charges that the Catholic Church changed the Ten Commandments…
Catholic sources of our defense to the baseless charges of Catholics changing the Ten Commandments…
- KJV…..first appeared on the scene in 1611, a product of Protestantism.
- NIV…..first appeared on the scene in 1978.
- NKJV…first appeared on the scene in 1982.
- RSV…..first appeared on the scene in 1946
Now it doesn’t take a rocket scientist to prove that the Ten Commandments could not possibly have been changed by the Catholic Church which did not even exist for almost 200 years after the Septuagint was written. Add to that the fact that ALL Catholic Bibles, ALL the way back to 148 B.C.,are in agreement, and yet Protestant Bibles which did not even appear on the scene until 1611, list the commandments in the ‘different’ order.
- Catechism of the Catholic Church (CCC) appeared on the scene in 1992.
It lists the Ten Commandments as they were before Christ.- NJB…first appeared on the scene in 1985. The NJB supports the CCC.
- NAB…first appeared on the scene in 1970. The NAB supports the CCC.
- JB……first appeared on the scene in 1966. The JB supports the CCC.
- RSV-CE…first appeared on the scene in 1965. The RSV-CE supports the CCC.
- NCE…first appeared on the scene in 1954. The NCE supports the CCC.
- CE…first appeared on the scene in 1948. The CE (Confraternity Edition) supports the CCC.
- Challoner-Rheims…first appeared on the scene in 1749. The Challoner-Rheims supports the CCC.
- Douay-Rheims…first appeared on the scene in 1592-1609. The Douay-Rheims supports the CCC.
Note that the date for this Bible predates any Protestant Bible by at least 2 years.- The Latin Vulgate…first appeared on the scene in 404. The Latin Vulgate supports the CCC.
Note that the date for this Bible predates any Protestant Bible by over 1200 years.- The Septuagint…first appeared on the scene about 148 B.C. This is the Bible that was used by the Apostles.
The Septuagint supports the CCC. Note that the date for this Bible predates any Protestant Bible by over 1700 years.
So…WHO really did change the Ten Commandments?
Please, if you are going to make charges against the Catholic Church,then do it with real evidence (if you can find any) and not by personal opinions.
We are all looking for the truth and not trumped up charges.
