Thanks for providing the link, I was tired and forgot. You gather the firewood and you can use my lighter.

Thanks, Grace. Actually it's not me. It's my son on his first tour of Afghanistan. He didn't kill anybody and came home in one piece, with his goofy humor intact.

In other words you have the prize half way through the race and don't need to run to the finish line. Our Holy Father has a pedigree traced back to Pope St. Peter. All 266 of them are human beings. The authority that Jesus gave Pope St. Peter lived on after Pope St. Peter was crucified...

What about a person who, through no fault of their own, have never heard the gospel? Is that an automatic hell sentence?

The Catholic stance is that true deeds (done from the grace of Christ) will ultimately perfect our faith. But I know what you mean. When we get accused of "works righteousness" I hit the roof.

There are two general philosophies translators use when they do their work: formal or complete equivalence and dynamic equivalence. Formal equivalence translations try to give as literal a translation of the original text as possible. Translators using this philosophy try to stick close to the...

None of these lines contradict scripture. 1 Scripture 1.1 I. Old and New Testament Parallels of God the Father and God the Son 1.2 II. Jesus Christ’s Witnesses Claim that Jesus is God 1.3 III. Jesus Christ Claims to be God 1.4 IV. Jesus’ Miracles Testify that He is God 1.5 V. Jesus Christ is...

Yea, just like your 6 verses in the OP. + < this is a false god/idol/graven image of the cross, according to gadar. 1.1 I. Old and New Testament Parallels of God the Father and God the Son 1.2 II. Jesus Christ’s Witnesses Claim that Jesus is God 1.3 III. Jesus Christ Claims to be God 1.4...

The New World Translation (NWT) is produced by the Watch Tower Society, the parent organization of the Jehovah's Witnesses (JWs). The New Testament (or "Christian Greek Scriptures," as they call it) was first produced in 1950, followed by the Old Testament ("Hebrew Scriptures"), produced...

I get it!!! YWWH miraculously beamed "Yeshua" into Mary's womb using space aliens. (oh no!, I used the "M" word!!! I've angered the forum gods!!!)

The Creation of Adam (Italian: Creazione di Adamo) is a fresco painting by Michelangelo, which forms part of the Sistine Chapel's ceiling, painted c. 1508–1512. It illustrates the Biblical creation narrative from the Book of Genesis in which God gives life to Adam, the first man. The fresco is...

Acts 20:29 is talking about the Gnostics who threatened the faith community AT THAT TIME. By prophetic extension, this verse could apply to Arius, Sabellius, Nestorious, and Apollonarius who later gave rise to the Bogomil and Paulician heretics. Arius, Sabellius, Nestorious, and Apollonarius...

Have you ever met anyone so stupid as to believe this Bible was physically signed by God??? Your radical iconoclasm is no less absurd. Please quote what words of the Nicene Creed are not derived from Scripture. The "version" that you honestly and truthfully ponder in your heart. Either one...

This proves that a hyper-literalist legalist cannot comprehend analogy. Michelangelo portrayed. Portrayed is the key word. It's not a precise duplication and no one expects it to be. Show me a verse that forbids the making of Scripture in 2-3 dimensional form, for the second time...

That's like saying a painted portrait of your mother/grandmother/great grandmother is unacceptable because it's not a photograph. That's not in the Bible, and no one is claiming such an image is "Yeshua" or God. That's the job of an anti-Catholic. Show me a verse that forbids the making of...

Your frozen into dichotomous thinking: either/or. (if A is true, then B must be false) "Both/and" is more a Hebraic approach to reading Scripture: "A is true, and so is a" If you read what I said carefully, you will discover, hopefully, that I did not say an empty cross is wrong. I said an...

Luther accepted life after death the same as all the early reformers. That is a pile of tuarus excretum. "Rome" did not authenticate Original Sin, nor Adam and Eve. They brought PHYSICAL death and disease when they Fell. "innate immortality" was, and is now, a tenent of Judaism. Any Jewish site...

TRUTH post #146

This post looks familiar. You have 3-4 different unrelated topics. Do you want a reply on soul sleep, Ezekiel's vision? Christs' baptism? David? Steven? The Crucifixion? The Resurrection? None of this proves soul sleep. My refutation of soul sleep is found in the link in post #32. Scroll up...

The Pope is venerating the crucifix for what it represents. You will never see that with anti-Catholic blinders on. Even with a dictionary you cannot accept the meaning of "veneration". The Pope doesn't NEED the crucifix, and neither did the Popes who had no crucifix while rotting in dungeons...
