Oh goodness Taken....when did I ever say that God is NOT supreme power? Stay on topic....

Hey amadeus, Nope, I never, not once, said I am right. I said The Church, which is the pillar and foundation of TRUTH, is right. The Church, who decides who is to be ex-communicated, is right. Whoever has the TRUTH and has the authority to enforce that Truth is right. Do you believe you are...

Oh stop it Taken. The context of this conversation is about Scriptural interpretation and who to trust. You even wrote "Titles and knowing a guy, who knew a guy, is a badge of merit." You and @amadeus put your teachings/interpretation of Scripture above those men with "Titles". Those men had...

Oh, the shame I now have since you put it that way. I have seen the light. They were not "worthy to be mentioned in Scripture" so I shouldn't listen to them. Who do you listen to Taken? You speak for you on doctrinal issues. You agree with you. You were not a student of the Apostles. They were...

Lol...ok....thank you.

Thanks for joining the conversation quitthinker. If we look at the history of Christianity and Scripture on veneration it means to give great respect or reverence. Do you have great respect for the Mother of God who is 'highly favored and blessed among women' (Luke 1:28)? Do you think the NT...

So the men who started those churches they didn't properly study Scripture to come up with those doctrines that YOU call false but YOU conducted a proper study of Scripture to determine that their doctrines are false???????? Even though you are a man that came AFTER the Apostles YOU can figure...

Where do I go if you refuse to answer a doctrinal question from me Ronald? And how often should I ask that same question? Today, and then again a year from now to see if you have changed your answer. And then 2 years from that to see if you have changed your answer again???

Lol....I should trust what YOU wrote over what men who were students of the Apostles wrote.....Clearly of not interest to me. YOU have the writings of God Approved but the men who walked and talked with the Apostles are NOT approved? Fascinating theory Taken....Simply fascinating.........

Rigggghhht...you come to the Truth on your very first reading of Scripture. Congratulations, you are being guided by the Spirit at all times. o_O

Yes, it is settled. The Church is the pillar and foundation of truth and answers for me who is to be ex-communicated. Not your fantasy that it is you. Very unconventional to fulfill what is written in Matthew 18:17? Well then, call me unconventional for following what Scripture teaches. I will...

And who do you "weigh heavily on"?

You have got to be kidding me right now. o_Oo_Oo_Oo_Oo_O Look back at my posts and all the Christian history I spoke of and passages from Scripture I quoted. Your statement is ludicrous. Compare what I have written to what you have written. Who posts more quotes from Scripture to back up what...

Hmmmm.....Ronald, for someone who is self described as being well studied you don't (or are pretending) even know who the Apostolic Fathers are? I find it fascinating that you say that anyone AFTER the Apostles they are not "charged with establishing teh[sic] church and its doctrines." But then...

You Protestants can answer in your own words since your answer to the same question can change week to week, year to year, century to century. It is all a matter of if you feel like the Holy Spirit is guiding you into the truth...but then a year later you feel like the Holy Spirit guided you...

Hmmmm.......I don't recall saying I would answer. If I did please cut and paste it here for me or give me the post# Here is what I said in post #319: .....you asked for answers and I provided you the venue for those answers sooooooooooo I don't know what else to say. So it appears YOU asked...

I always enjoy hearing from you Taken. I know you are not interested in the link. But you asked for answers and I provided you the venue for those answers sooooooooooo I don't know what else to say.

Yup Ronald. The early Church had some major disagreements. The purpose of some of the letters in the Bible was to settle those differences! The Apostles had the authority to settle those differences. Each individual Christian was not authorized to read (hear Scripture in NT times) Scripture and...

Thanks Ronald. You love that word presumptious[sic], don't you......:) According to your self testimony you seem to be well read. There is no more need for you to explain how YOU come up with YOUR truth. But let's be honest here. No where at no point at any time in any manner does Scripture say...

Hey Backlit, Can you name a false doctrine of The Church that is taught using tradition only? Thanks....Mary
