How about you give your privatized definition of "binding and loosing" and I will present the biblical and historical Judaea/Christian definition found in any Protestant/Jewish reference/source/dictionary. Every time you get caught in a falsehood, you try to turn the tables. I'm beginning to...

Every Jew did not have the power of binding and loosing, that was reserved for the Seat of Moses, a group of rabbis. Anyone can find the meaning of "binding and loosing" in any Jewish source. Not every Jew is a rabbi. It was a common phrase understood by the Apostles. You conveniently change...

Jesus didn't forget to give Peter the Keys of the Kingdom and the authority to bind and lose. Jesus gave these to Peter first as an individual, then to the other Apostles as a collective, but you don't get it. TITLES were granted and developed over time, not self assigned. You have no concept of...

It means not to elevate anyone to the level of God, which proves you read into the passage what isn't there. Acts 7:2; 22:1,1 John 2:13 – elders of the Church are called “fathers.” That's what priests do. Every priest becomes a father through the Gospel the same as Paul that you deny because...

The biblical texts seemed so clear to me. For example, Hebrews 7:22–25 says: Doesn’t this text eliminate the possibility of there being priests who are “many in number” as we see in Catholicism? Moreover, this text tells us that Christ is our intercessor before the Father. Coupled with 1...

Why is it "pretty plain" to a minority within a minority? There is no way you can claim to speak for all non-Catholic Christians. Most good Christian Protestants have better manners than rabid anti-Catholics and will properly address a priest as "Fr." Soandso because they are civilized. Some...

"Father's Day" is a cultural celebration on June 16 this year. People who think calling priests "father" is the same as calling them "God" have mental problems. One of the titles for the pope is "Servant of the Servants of God", taken from Jesus who told Peter to strengthen his brothers, so...

Yes, blood thirsty Catholics, while determining the canon of Scripture, spent their lunch breaks slaughtering mythical "true believers", and even killed their own popes. SDA revisionism appeals to the ignorant who are predisposed to irrational hostility and drink E.G. White's Koolaid. The SDA...

THE PATHOLOGY OF TRANSGENDERISM We recently released a report (see our website) on the problems associated with males and females who “transition” to the opposite sex. Here are some of our findings. https://www.catholicleague.org/the-pathology-of-transgenderism/

Nobody is born a racist, nobody is born anti-Catholic they get there by a process called "socialization" with striking similarities. Racists are socialized with the same dynamic as the socialized anti-Catholic. Maybe I could say racism and anti-Catholicism are cousins. TRANS ACTIVISTS DEFILE...

Constantine was present as a civil ruler, not a church leader. He had no say in the formulation of the canons at the Council of Nicaea, which you reject in the first place. Pope Damasus I, the first to receive a title from the emporer, (/ˈdæməsəs/; c. 305 – 11 December 384), known as Damasus...

You missed the point entirely. That is NOT the basis of the papacy, its the basis for relativism. And when these people post something truthful, I click "like" for the content, ignoring who wrote it. I dislike the lies posted by ignorant bigots with their Ku Klux Klan theology. Agreed. I...

It's nice that you refer to the early church fathers. What most of them thought of the papacy is well documented in post #11, that you seemed to have skipped over. You wrote "(particularly by Tertullian)" “Peter, who is called ‘the rock on which the church should be built,’ who also obtained...

Must you be so insulting? Why not listen to some folks who have PhD's in the Bible, etc., some of whom taught in Protestant seminaries? These folks, through their study of the Bible and Christianity, became Catholic. Dr. Doug Beaumont: Dr. Scott Hahn: Dr. Jason Reed: Dr. Tory Baucum...

OFFICE OF POPE IN THE BIBLE Isaiah 22:19-25 New King James Version 19 So I will drive you out of your office, And from your position [a]he will pull you down. 20 ‘Then it shall be in that day, That I will call My servant Eliakim the son of Hilkiah; 21 I will clothe him with your robe, And...

Wrong. The Pope gets his authority from the prerogatives Jesus gave to Peter. (Rock) https://www.patheos.com/blogs/standingonmyhead/authority-of-the-first-popes

I'm still waiting for you to admit who killed the first 27+ popes in the first 2+ centuries of the Church. You can't or won't because the historical facts makes mincemeat of your Catholic bashing theories. Furthermore, you refuse to name ONE martyr in the post-biblical era, because they were all...

Simon bar Johnna's new name, ROCK, is shown through the Bible as Cephas, a word of Aramaic origin. Get over it. Mark 3:16; John 1:42 – Jesus renames Simon “Kepha” in Aramaic which literally means “rock.” This was an extraordinary thing for Jesus to do, because “rock” was not even a name in...

I notice that anti-Mary Christians often leave Jesus out of their objections. It's a trap. Not so fast.

That has nothing to do with the heresies listed. Just as I thought, you refuse to accept the Catholic Church collectively defended the doctrine of the Tr***ty in councils you reject. It's self defeating. Without synods and councils, you wouldn't have a bible in the first place. Please don't...
