How would God create "our" timekeeping before He even created the sun? OUR timekeeping is based on the sun. God's timekeeping is not. What about "timekeeping" before the sun was created? LIght and darkness. Sky and waters. Land, seas, plants and trees. Some say "plants and trees...

Ummm....to a point. I mean, when someone* in the Bible referred to traveling a "Sabbath's Day's journey", did they mean a 24 hour period? (*Sorry. I forgot who said that/which passage!) Why would it be? I mentioned Strong's before. The word "day" can mean different things, depending on the...

The word "day" in Hebrew can have different meanings depending on context. It could mean "morning", or "afternoon"...or an "age"...or "amount", etc. The list is pretty long in Strong's! And even though most of us here are English-speaking, when we say "day", we don't always mean a 24 hour...

What's bolded doesn't even make sense. Yes, God is all knowing and present everywhere. But just because Mary and the saints can hear prayers doesn't make them all knowing and present everywhere. Not sure how you made that leap from them being able to hear prayer to being omniscience and...

So, let me get this straight... YOU think that the Bible is God's Word, right? Please tell me in the Bible where it says to use a computer...or that zippers are o.k.... Let me remind you of something...dude...You got YOUR "BIBLE" from CATHOLIC canon. It was the Protestants who removed the 7...

Wait...time out. John 16:14 has nothing to do with Peter. And as for the Council at Jerusalem, the 'overseer' wasn't John; it was PETER, as in Acts 15. Actually, it started in Acts 10 when Peter had his vision. Peter was pretty much the catalyst...a.k.a the "rock" that Jesus used to smash...

Here's the thing though, Phoneman. Catholics are not Sola Scriptura. The Bible has gone through many changes since the first word of the Bible was committed to writing. Letters were written...copies were made...other writings that used to be read in churches and distributed are no longer...

False doctrine? About 30 minutes ago, I gave a homeless man 5 bucks. I guess because it doesn't LITERALLY say in the Bible to give 5 bucks to a homeless man, that I'm some "saint". I didn't give the guy 5 buck because I thought, "YEAH! I give this guy5 bucks, and I'll automatically get...

WHOSE doctrine? Yours? Martin Luther's? Before Luther came around, 1 and 2 Maccabees was PREACHED in churches. Luther didn't LIKE the idea that yeah...we can pray FOR the dead. Nope. Not even close... Nope. *MY* bible isn't "false" YOUR "bible" never said that "the" bible was sola...

Catholics don't pray to the dead; they pray for the dead. There's a difference... We dont' pray TO Mary; we pray through Mary. Again, there's a difference. But you're too lazy to research WHAT the difference is. Catholics are NOT Sola Scriptura. There is NO SUCH DOCTRINE in the Bible that...

Not only are Catholics Christians, but they're the ORIGINAL Christians. Stick THAT in your bonnet...

It seems that while you might read the Words of God, you don't practice them very much... If you did, you wouldn't be trying to mock me...

No, no, no, no, no NO Dev. Don't "assume". This is also the beginning of flu season, and the marks of the flu often mimic Covid. Please, Puh-LEEZ get a test and/or get tested. I haven't had Covid, but I've had the flu before. It's miserable. Please don't assume...don't assume...don't...

*Yawn* Please do your research before you post. Please...

In what you quoted from the two posts, I don't see anything to indicate the Holy Spirit is the "representative" of Jesus. Maybe I don't understand what you mean by "representative" of Jesus. Could it be our definitions/understandings simply differ? Example: I see the Apostles as being...

Isn't Jesus allowed to have and/or appoint more than one representative, especially for specific purposes?

Jesus, obviously. Didn't I say in my post that the Pope MUST obey Jesus?

Oh, geez........................................LOVE God and LOVE others. That's pretty much it in a nutshell. No politics. No 'spiritual foreplay'.

Oh, knock it off, Amigo. I didn't "err HUGE." Had I known the answer to TWO questions back then, I wouldn't have been homeless. Had nothing to do with "erring" or "repenting". SHEESH! I was stupid in my own rite. No blaming G I HAVE read the bible. Cover to cover. SEVERAL times. I LIKE...

Yup. You're right. Catholicism does NOT teach that we can be saved by our words...or deeds ("works") for that matter. Nor does it teach that we can be saved by faith ALONE. But it DOES teach that works/deeds...and even WORDS are important. Revelations teaches us THAT story. So do...
