why is it called a doctrine?

non Catholics do the exact same thing when they present a manmade doctrine, trinity, original sin, etc and teach it as divine scripture when no such teaching exist in scripture. remove the plank.

and fulfilled means abolished? lets imput that word and see how it sounds - "I did not come to abolish but i came to abolish"?? now does that make any sense to you, of course it doesnt. you might want to re think what "fulfilled" means. if you think it means Jesus is un doing all the old stuff...

funny that Jesus said verbatim that He did not come to abolish the laws and the prophets. yet people believe that He came to do exactly that.

Constantine wanted a quick fix which is why he championed this idea. here are some hard truths on the "belief only" idea- Constantine was the same murdering slime ball before and after. the roman empire was no different after it picked this up. it has been taught in mainstream Christianity for...

so what was the deal with all that teaching He did when all we are supposed to do is believe He died? i have always been a bit uncomfortable rooting my belief in human sacrifice, that was the way of the Canaanites and Aztecs and they were pretty dark, evil and disturbing. you would think they...

i think yes, Jesus is the only way. i think the real issue is what is "the way" of Jesus. most Christians dont even agree on this. many think it is just calling yourself Christian. i can call myself king of north america all day long but its not going to make me king.

the SS has always seemed like a big ponzi scheme to me. everybody pays in and just a tiny few (that payed in) take out. so what happens to all the rest of the money, and thats when you get into a big grey area.

so the spirit is the one true Most High and not the Father?

i just posted them before. again: They taught chastity vowes, no oaths, new covenant, put extra emphasis on baptism, held all things in common, believed a leader should humble himself before a common person and much more. All things that Jesus and the 12 taught and did and they are the only...

im using them as an example of a sect that used teaching similar to that of Jesus and the 12 and they obeyed the law.

The Essenes separated themselves from places like Jerusalem to set up a community free from the debauchery that as going on there such as their community leaders did not believe in giving orders to kill innocent children. They taught chastity vowes, no oaths, new covenant, put extra emphasis on...
