    Where does the Pope get his authority?

    Aaaaah. Am I allowed to do that?

    Revelation 12

    KJV Revelation 12:1-6 1 And there appeared a great wonder in heaven; a woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and upon her head a crown of twelve stars: 2 And she being with child cried, travailing in birth, and pained to be delivered. Women are prophetic metaphors for the...

    Revelation 12

    What is an angel? What evidence do you have that Michael is one?

    God is male/female

    But His Son became one.

    Where does the Pope get his authority?

    I could I think, justifiably enquire as to why JWs honour the Sunday rather than the Sabbath, seeing they are so exacting with regards pagan origins for Christian holy days?

    Examples of what in particular?

    Where does the Pope get his authority?

    With a capital 'C' as a noun? Nonsense.

    Where does the Pope get his authority?

    Three Arian nations were destroyed by papal Rome, if not directly, at least through request and support, in the 6th century. The Goths, the Heruli, and the Vandals. These were the 3 horns spoken of by Daniel that were uprooted by the "little horn". In those days, with a little imagination and...

    Where does the Pope get his authority?

    Mmm. I wonder if anyone really knows any more what Arius actually taught and believed. I know there's supposed to be some writing of his somewhere that informs us, but is it genuine? His enemies could well have counterfeited something and altered it, or invented something completely different...

    Where does the Pope get his authority?

    I'm not against the trinity/Godhead per se, but against man's attempts to define it, then require through the creeds that definition to be the arbiter as to who is or is not a Christian. I think if one deep dives into even the quotes you relate above, one would find differences between the...

    Understanding the 1,260-year Prophecy

    Interesting how different posters here all disagree with one another, but leave one another alone for the "greater good" they perceive in uniting in attacking Adventism. Just am observation. Jesus said "And ye shall be hated of all nations for My name's sake". Even though the nations disagree...

    Where does the Pope get his authority?

    There was no Catholic church in the 3rd century. There were bishops yes, and while some bishops in Rome thought it a good thing that all other cities come under the authority of Rome, the papacy had not yet fully developed. Not until Constantine's move to Istanbul, renaming that city after...

    Where does the Pope get his authority?

    Goes further than that. Haven't read the entire thread, so apologies if the following is a repeat. Revelation reveals the source of Catholic authority. KJV Revelation 13:2 2 And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard, and his feet were as the feet of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth...

    Why didn't god give every soul as much time as it needed to become good? Why send so many to hell?

    You have gone on to describe this evil god, and of what you have said is true, then I would agree with you... In fact, you could call me an atheist because I don't believe in that god either . The god you describe doesn't exist. I'm not afraid of him, seeing he's a figment of your imagination...

    Here is why, as an Adventist, I believe America is in Trouble.

    Ooooh, ouch. Now these unnamed villains are noxious weeds! They are among us! Goodness. On that basis then it shouldn't be too hard to find the evidence right? Davy must have inside knowledge. The angels don't know who they are yet, but Davy wants to pull out these tares on account of his...

    Here is why, as an Adventist, I believe America is in Trouble.

    KJV Luke 23:56 56 And they returned, and prepared spices and ointments; and rested the sabbath day according to the commandment. Question 1. Was the above before or after the new covenant was ratified? Question 2. Who were these women? Question 3. Was the Sabbath still a commandment at this...

    Here is why, as an Adventist, I believe America is in Trouble.

    There's a difference between Christ and God, and their will for man? Who is it precisely you are talking about in post# 960? Who exactly are these Pharisaical converts that are preaching another gospel from what Paul preached? Who exactly are these who are teaching that righteousness comes...

    Here is why, as an Adventist, I believe America is in Trouble.

    Mmmm. God forbid that Christians should suggest that keeping God's commandments are a good thing to do right? There's just gotta be something very fishy about that. Trying to work their way to heaven without a doubt. Teaching and even practising heresy. Being poor role models to minors...

    Overcoming

    I mentioned to someone else recently, how many Christians when they frequent forums, "fight against flesh and blood, and demons are allowed free reign".

    Overcoming

    In his book on the life of Joseph, and in particular Joseph's rejection of Potiphar's wife, Larry Lichtenwalter writes: Joseph sees more than just Potiphar's enchanting wife~he recognizes Potiphar and God standing there. Because he sees more~because he perceives two valued relationships that...
