Not true. It is about forgiveness AND denial of sin. If my brother denies he committed a sin I can still forgive him, but he has still committed a sin AND is kicked out of the church until he admits it is a sin. Do you REALLY not see that in those passages? But according to your theory, that...

If alls it takes are the parties involved then why does Scripture say take it to 1-2 other brothers? And if they refuse to listen to the 2-3 of us take it to the church? Can you not see how contradicting you are? If my brother refuses to listen to me (the church according to you) then he is...

LOL…so let me see if I understand you correctly. You walked up to receive communion. The priest looked at you and could tell that you were not Catholic so he denied you communion? Is that what happened Jim?

EDIT Your men invented their beliefs from the words of Scripture. For you see it takes man to interpret the Bible. You are confused or your men have taught you wrong. I suspect it is both. It is not the eating of the bread/wine that saves you. It is obeying Him that saves you: Do this in...

Well, I don’t see anything in your post that is a repeat of what the Bible says soooo that means you have only given your opinion. Also kiddo, a Christian doctrine is a Truth taught by Christianity. Maybe you think that you can deviate from the Truth but I refuse to. Do you ever read what you...

Faith, without works, is dead. So we teach as Scripture teaches: Faith + Works = justification Your men havn’t taught you all of Scripture…Have they?

Lol…soooo what bible author is alive today to guide you and your men ? None! Would you care to try and give a logical answer?

hmmmm…..so only Catholics don’t have the ears to hear or the Spirit to understand? Then why are you Protestants not only telling us catholics we are wrong but tell each other you are wrong when they don’t agree with YOU? Curious Mary

Lol…sure, if you say so. And you are still bloviating. Are you going to prove to me that the early church had a list of books that they considered Scripture or are you going to continue to dodge and bloviat? Patient Mary

John 6:40 DOES NOT negate 53-58. What man taught you that it does? Eating bread and drinking wine IS a requirement because we are required to do what he TOLD us to do: Luke 22:19. What man taught you that you are not required to do what he told you to do? No, you were not denied because you...

You just answered my question....you are going to bloviate.

Hmmm.....so YOU decide what church is heretical? And the Spirit revealed this to you? You crack me up wrangler....

Lol....that is the only thing you have to say after @Illuminator proved you wrong? you crack me up

Ummmm....sooooo are you going to prove me wrong or just bloviate?

No, the Holy Spirit will not lead men to the Truth against their will. But YOUR men have been led to the Truth....which means YOUR men are not heretics because you KNOW that YOUR MEN are guided by the Holy Spirit. BTW...I am not mocking. I am simply putting you on the spot and I suspect you see...

It is factual Ferris that true believers are members of the church. Because logically if you don't truly believe then you can't be a member. I think you would say that Catholics are not true believers. And you would probably say that MANY denominations are not true believers. Sooooooo who...

I have not given my opinion Jim. I have given the 2,000-year teaching of Christianity. What you are giving is your opinion or the opinion (teachings) of men from 500 years ago. Keeping it real....Mary

Jesus made it VERY clear and I have made it very clear and Christianity for 2,000 years has made it very clear that it is a requirement Jim: unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you have no life in you. 54 Those who eat my flesh and drink my blood have eternal life...

NO, it is not ONLY about a "matter of forgiveness". Read the passages AGAIN! IN CONTEXT: It is about a person committing a SIN against you AND your forgiveness of them AFTER they admit it was a SIN. If they disagree with you, and the two brothers that agree with you, that what they did was not...

What your men have taught you is not what that passage says. But I understand how they came to that conclusion. And that conclusion would make sense if it wasn't for the fact that the difference between the two brothers is being taking to the church OR the sum of all believers as you put it...
