Perhaps you should let us in on the reason for your concern. If someone had broken a rule then it behooves you to contact the administrator. If this is the case, then by all means, contact Hammerstone, but be specific. Which rule has been broken and how?

Eddie I'm growing weary of your dodges. Both Brest and Uzhhorod came after Trent, which is why I said "1054 AD through Trent." Even at that, neither embraced all of Eastern Orthodoxy, so your use of "our churches" in the quote above is a gross exaggeration.

No sir. They are speaking of the way Christ fulfilled the Levitical priesthood and sacrifices. Notice the verses that I bolded and underlined for you. The point I was making was that the sacerdotal priesthood and sacrifices ceased with Christ--something you claim has not ceased. The passages...

The operative phrase in my last post is "full communion." Eastern Orthodox churches are not in "full communion" with Rome. If Eddie's congregation is, then it's Roman Catholic, not Eastern Orthodox, regardless of how much they mimick Eastern "rites." Evidently he belongs to one of these small...

If you are in fact in "full communion" with Rome, (something EO is not), then that makes you some sort of hybrid schismatic, and yet you feel justified in taking shots at Protestants. Eddie, I'm afraid that you continue to be a big ball of contradiction.

I'm afraid that is incorrect. Not only did Christ offer a perfect sacrifice once for all time as the Scripture I have provided below clearly indicates, there is no such thing as a New Testament sacerdotal priesthood. There are qualifications listed in Scripture for presbuteroi/episcopoi, but no...

Your Scripture references are not only irrelevant to this discussion, they have nothing whatsoever to do with your assertion. The passages in question have to do with the way in which the Levitical sacrificial system is a pattern or type of things in Heaven, not the Church. What you have engaged...

Eastern Orthodoxy is in full communion with the head of the Church? Who would that be? Don't tell me Peter. Scripture disagrees. Rome disagrees for different reasons, but disagrees nonetheless. You let me know when East and West reconcile and then your posts on this matter will cease to be...

Where are all of the computer savy techs? Anyone?

Which Catholic Church Eddie? East or West? The East doesn't recognize the papacy and the West doesn't recognize your patriarchate. Why don't you quit being a rebel and head back to Rome so you can follow Peter's successors? I find your blantant double standard in this regard to be quite...

Once again you dodge my arguments and send out a red herring. No matter. Even if you could prove that such a leader was appointed, Acts 15:13-20 and Galatians 2:11 clearly demonstrate that Peter wasn't that one.

Really? This is like the pot calling the kettle black Eddie. Were the East and West in tune with the Apostles in 1054 AD? Which council settled the Great Schism? Was it the West or the East that left the one true Catholic and Apostolic Church? The West says it was the East, and the East says...

No. The Apostles and Prophets are the foundation of the Church, but no "head" from among them was ever appointed. The "head" of the Church is Christ and no other, (Eph. 2:20). Acts 15:13-20 and Galatians 2:11 for example, should put such a notion to rest.

It would seem you want to change the subject here Eddie. To recognize Peter as primus inter pares among the Apostles is a far cry from proving that Peter is the rock referred to in Matthew 16. As I posted twice before now, not only is there a glaring problem with the way Rome and Eastern...

IrishEddieOhara, You claimed that works have "nothing" to do with salvation and that Trent reaffirmed this. I demonstrated that Rome reaffirms no such thing. Now you want to say Trent is ambiguous. Trent is not ambiguous. There's no need to "take apart" the statements made by Trent. They are...

Yes, they did and they were far from unanimous on Matthew 16. Your few quotations are for too simplistic. Provided below are two links to a lengthy study by William Webster demonstrating that Rome's claims with regard to Peter are incorrect. http://www.christian...athersmt16.html...

Maybe I'm misunderstanding something about you here, but I was under the impression that you are Roman Catholic, and yet your soteriology appears out of step with Trent.

Not everything in Scripture applies directly to us today. As the Apostle Paul clearly points out, the festivals given to Israel were types and shadows fulfilled in Christ and meant to lead to Christ who is the very substance of them. The Mosaic covenant and all that it entailed, such as the...

Does anyone know how to extract a short clip from a larger mp3 file?

As far as free internet resources that are trustworthy I would recommend the Hall of Church History. There you will find not only info on the men you mentioned, you will also find their writings, which is the best way to study them. For example, when you open the home page, scroll down to the...
