The Church and Christ are indivisible when those coming together abide in the teachings of the Apostles. And they devoted themselves to the apostles' teaching and the fellowship, to the breaking of bread and the prayers. (Act 2:42) It is self defeating to use Scripture as proof that the Church...

Like I said I think we have run this topic to the ground. The main difference is that you trust in Church edicts and traditions, I trust in the Scriptures. Yes, it may be my interpretation as I see Scripture interpreting Scripture but on Judgment Day it will be between me and God, I won't be...

No worry, my trust is not in Trump, never has been. I just think those who think Trump is the AC are just as looney as those who think we are in the Tribulation.

Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition;(2Th 2:3) Only 1 of 2 conditions have happened. Or did I miss the 'man of sin'? (I know, I know, some will swear it is Trump).

We've been over that already. The quote was from the Psalms, written in Hebrew, meaning 'office'. By you trying to link a litany of OT passages regarding the Israelite priesthood to the Church is implying a similar setup with both Israel and the Church. The three levels of priests of Judaism...

I said ‘every group’. Would it be wrong to assume you have a connection with the Coronavirus seeing their were a number of sightings of Yehren in the Hubei Province? lol

Don’t forget Meetag LOL

Every group has the wishy-washys, even Christians.

Remember the word is 'Office', not bishop. Besides you are making up rules as you go. Nowhere does it say that that office wouldn't have those requirements 'After that'. The Church is not Israel. Yes, but these are not 'successive'. Their qualifications (e.g. elders) were different than that...

Yes, but Andy Beshear who calls those shots is a Democrat. The Red State had probably drunk too much Obama Kool-Aid and so voted in Beshear. LOL

Sure, if it is a public sin, it is to be confessed publicly. If against an individual, go to that person. But the point I was making is you don't go confessing your sin to 'Confessor Father Pepe', when your sin was against brother Bob. You go to Bob.

Umm, where did I say it was a fake? I may have said the hysteria surrounding it is blown way out of proportion.

So privately confessing to the Lord would fit the bill unless private confession to a person you offended

"Confessed in the light"? Meaning...?

Sounds like a case of the Eloi being prepared for the Morlocks.

Thanks for help fulfilling prophecy... Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts, And saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation. (2Pe...

These same people will claim the word 'theory' (as in 'the theory of evolution') means a fact. So on that basis there wouldn't be much difference between a conspiracy being a 'theory' or being a 'fact. LOL

...and his OFFICE let another take. Our word bishopric (Authorized Version) is from this word, office of bishop (episcopos). Only that is not the idea here, but over-seership (epi, skopeô) or office as in 1Pe 2:12. It means to visit and to inspect, to look over. The ecclesiastical sense comes...

Why do you 'redden' my words and then act like I did it? Peter was quoting the Psalms (109:8 to be exact) which means the original word he is quoting was in Hebrew... Psalm 109:8 (KJV) Let his days be few; and let another take his office. So you see, it doesn't mean what you are trying to...
