Yes, it's so important that it's sufficient... 2 Timothy 3:16-17 NASBS [16] All Scripture is inspired by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, for training in righteousness; [17] so that the man of God may be adequate, equipped for every good work. What else is needed...

You can stick to the topic without getting hot under the collar... 2 Timothy 3:15-17 NASBS [15] and that from childhood you have known the sacred writings which are able to give you the wisdom that leads to salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus. [16] All Scripture is inspired by God...

I just love it when RCCers use Scripture in their attempt to refute Sola Scriptura. Self defeating.

And when they were come up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord caught away Philip, that the eunuch -- saw him no more: and he went on his way rejoicing. Acts 8:39 Interesting that the word here 'caught away' is hapadzo, ((1) as forcibly taking someone or something snatch, seize, take...

Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. (1Co 15:51-52 KJV)

If your approach to Scripture is essentially a literal one then you will favor dispensationalism (without the charts of 7 headed beasts and sensational 'left behind' scenarios). OTOH, if you like to spiritualize every name and camel in the Book of Leviticus as well as every prophecy, then you...

Try me without excuses for not showing me. Besides, Scripture is not so esoteric where only a few have the secret codes to unlock it's deep dark mysteries lol.

I only saw differences in background, not in their writings (epistles). This is crazy, what James was reminding Paul (not demanding as you say) in Acts 21:24-25, was not to be a stumbling block to the Jews. It follows Paul's own principle of becoming all things to all people that he may win...

My point was even though their were conflicts, what we have in their writings do not conflict. The information you gave was your analysis of the verses you quoted. but thanks anyways. ...but you went on again about their background differences. Let me be clearer. What doctrinal...

Yes as Paul had with Peter, but Peter later wrote... [15] and regard the patience of our Lord as salvation; just as also our beloved brother Paul, according to the wisdom given him, wrote to you, [16] as also in all his letters, speaking in them of these things, in which are some things hard to...

Are we speaking of James or the Epistle of James? The Epistle of James is fully inspired by God's Spirit as well as the Epistles of Paul and thus there is no contradictions as God does not contradict Himself. What James did and when he did it, outside his one Epistle,. is a debatable matter and...

Even the righteousness of God which is by faith of Jesus Christ unto all and upon all them that believe: for there is no difference: For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; (Rom 3:22-23 KJV)

God did not replace the Abrahamic Covenant with the New Covenant. Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree: That the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we...

Yes and most trolls seem to take a thread off the topic at hand and on to personal issues. Next thing we know we are debating personalities rather than the issues.

There are plenty of people I wish I could have taken back what was said, (not the theology part though) but the important thing is I don't hold a personal grudge.

YES, Yes, yes and a thousand yes's. :)

If you had read any of the links I had posted, you would have realized I already knew that. Besides it impresses me zero %. The Apostles and Prophets never taught it or practiced it...and they were centuries before the apostate Benedictines as well as received true revelation from God and not...

1 Timothy 1:3-6 (KJV) As I besought thee to abide still at Ephesus, when I went into Macedonia, that thou mightest charge some that they teach no other doctrine, Neither give heed to fables and endless genealogies, which minister questions, rather than godly edifying which is in faith: so do...

The way Lectio Divina does it, it is new age/mysticism.

Just the fact that Scripture is not their final arbiter should be warning enough.
