It's pretty simple kiddo. You made a statement. You didn't back it up. You failed. It is not up to me to back up a statement of yours that I disagree with!
Thank you for disagreeing with my one statement. It means that you agree with my other statement.

We can go from here with the understanding that the Bible has more authority than Catholic doctrine.

Would the Apostolic and Church Fathers meet that criteria?

It is up to the listener to judge with every teaching as to whether it is faithful to proper exegesis (see Acts of the Apostles 17:10-11). Their statements do not hold the same authority as the word of God, as you have already agreed to.

Your statements do not hold the same authority as the word of God soooo why should anyone accept your interpretation of Scripture?

In your book WHO's statements do hold some authority?

Sooooo no one can ever tell me if I am wrong since it is up to me.....Why do you keep telling me I am wrong?

Your violating your own theory....;)

I encourage everyone to use their minds and reason with the LORD (Isaiah 1:18) and to be a Berean (Acts of the Apostles 17:10-11) concerning anything that I might have to say to them about what is taught in the Bible.

Don't take my word for anything...check it by the holy scriptures.

Okay...if you can show from the Bible that Catholic Church doctrine takes precedence over the Bible, I'm all ears.
Ummm.....I never said that CC doctrine takes precedence over Scripture. You did!! o_O

I didn't tell you you were wrong...

But if in my proclaiming the truth you came to the conclusion that what you have believed is wrong, then perhaps that conclusion is based in truth.

You encourage everyone to use their minds and reason but when one does that you tell them they are wrong unless they agree with you....Fascinating.

I gotta go but you are a very interesting person....talking in circles and such. Not backing up your statements etc. simply...fascinating

If Catholic doctrine doesn't take precedence over scripture, then scripture takes precedence over Catholic doctrine....and I'm happy with that conclusion.

Not exactly...I said that I believe that this is what the Catholic Church teaches.

If I am wrong about that then Protestants have been right for the last four or five centuries concerning the fact that the Bible takes precedence over Catholic doctrine...it turns out that the Catholic Church has been in agreement with Protestantism all these years.

All of that to say that I don't need to back up my statement with documentation from official church documents...

Because it should be clear that my statement is based in common knowledge.

I have news for you:

If anyone had tried that on me before I became a Christian I would have jump off my bike and kicked him in the ass.
Sorry if that sounds cruel, but it's exactly what I would have done.

The only reason I became a Christian was because a Spirit led believer
told me his testimony about what God had done in his life.

I did not come to Christ because some nut case told me I was going to hell.

Your speech betrays you, and your fruit is corrupt. You obviously don't know Jesus, because Jesus would not use vulgar words as you do. Counterfeit Christianity is so prevalent nowadays, and you have apparently bought into it.

Did you all really listen to the video?
'
Did any of you feel the love of God flowing from the so called 'preachers'?
Was there any heartfelt appeal from the heart?

Telling someone that a mill stone will be about their neck etc etc is hardly wooing them , or even going into the byways and calling them to the wedding feast ...no, just a brow beating that 'hit the wall and fell to the ground'. I see no loving 'seed sowing' done there. :(


This is the love of God, that we keep His commandments. Sweet talking people in their sins in NOT love.

1 John 5
[2] By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God, and keep his commandments.
[3] For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous.

Neither is beating them over the head. Shepherds lead, they don't drive.
They also check for hurts and or wounds ...and weep for the life ...IF they are true shepherds.
Condemnation is a weapon of the devil..not God.
But ...your religious mind is already made up. It probably 'helps' you feel more righteous.

Works of the flesh , are still flesh and dead works.
