I was saying something you can never defend. Protestant beliefs vary and every belief put forth by the Protestant revolution is allegedly a belief given to them by the Holy Spirit:
baptism saves/baptism doesn’t save
Real presence in the Eucharist/no real presence
Abortion is murder/abortion is ok with God
Women pastors are condoned by Scripture/women pastors are condemned by Scripture
Gay marriage is condoned by God/gay marriage is condemned by God
My statement still holds true: Unlike the members of your Protestant revolution who can not agree on anything.
I will add to that statement by saying either the Holy Spirit is confused or your hero’s like Luther are confused since all your hero’s say they have been guided by the Holy Spirit into the truth.
All those denominations are at odds against one another, while all claiming to be the one which is right. God himself has given us his word to tell us what the true religion is all about. When we begin to change the word, and to add or subtract from it, then we are guilty of "Man Made Religion".
Here is an example ...
1. there was no sprinkling done for water baptism in the Bible.
2. there was no infant baptism in the Bible.
Mark 16:16 He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.
(infants cant yet "believe")
1 Corinthians 7:14 For the unbelieving husband is sanctified by the wife, and the unbelieving wife is sanctified by the husband: else were your children unclean; but now are they holy.
The Protestants came from the "MOTHER HARLOT" in the book of Revelation, which has daughters. Her daughters are the churches that embrace the mother's core doctrine, the Trinity.
Mary, remember that I am not only talking about Catholics here, but Protestants too.
In the Bible the church is always portrayed as a woman. The true church in the bible is symbolized as a virgin.
Deuteronomy 6:4 Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God is one LORD:
The false church in the bible is symbolized as a "Harlot" - which came up with a doctrine that there is a plurality of deities: God the Father, God the Son, God the Holy Ghost and these are three separate "persons".
And, repeating the command of Matthew 28:19 denies Jesus NAME ... can you imagine Jesus wanting to marry a woman that will not take on His NAME? But they deny Jesus name at water baptism.
Here is a quote from Vatican Council II: 1962-1965...
"We the Mother Church are opening our arms to all of our daughters to return home. Anyone who holds to our baptism may return home without being rebaptized."
The real test is to check the core doctrine of a church, first. Then those that do not embrace the plurality of persons “theory”, see if they embrace the Apostles One God Monotheistic Doctrine.
God bless!
