    Hi post, Yup, He is head of The Church. What about Matthew 16:18? Who does he say he will build The Church upon? What is The Church in Matthew 18:17 and 1 Timothy 3:15? You are subject to your own authority if you are not subject to an "earthly organization". What do you do when two of the...

    So you can belong to The Church spoken of in Scripture that is the pillar and foundaton of truth and decides who is to be treated as a pagan or tax collector. The church that Christ started.

    You need yourself to tell you if you are hearing the truth or not.....Don't you? Sooooo you do need someone. You rely on you. I rely on The Church which is the pillar and foundation of truth and decides who is to be treated as a pagan or tax collector.....Just like Scripture says. You even...

    Plain to WHO??? What is plain to me is different than what is plain to you or Joe or Jane or Mike or Lois or the Catholic church or the Baptist churc or the Mormon church. Who decides what are the plain words of the Bible and who is led by the Spirit? YOU?

    Yes, it is a word game. What does what you have written have to do with what we are talking about?

    Oh goodness...More word games :( Sooooooo what you are saying is that we only know what we think we know and what we think we know might be right or it might be wrong but we really don't know......You might know more than me but I might know more than you but we really don't know because only...

    Oh goodness....soooooooooooooooooooo you think that EVERY believer has the anointing of the Holy Spirit with them to know when what they are hearing is truth??? Right? Isn't that what you are saying??? That puts you in a prediciment: Your truth is different than my truth. The Catholic churches...

    EG, I believe 'my church got it right' because I have studied my Christian history. That history has led me to The Church. If my church didn't get it right then which one did???? Curious Mary

    You call what I have a "Catholic priesthood". What I have is no different than you have which are 'gifted believers that have been called and anointed by God'. It's the same thing kiddo.....your just using different words to describe the same thing. My gifted believers are the men (bishops...

    OK....Sooooooooo which "gifted believers" have 'demonstrated to you that they have been called and anointed by God'????? You keep making these vague statements but don't back them up with any facts. Where are these gifted believers you speak of? How do you know one of them when you see them or...

    Stop it Ferris....your answer makes zero sense. The church that is led by a called and anointed leader is the Church that has "supremacy over the body of believers in the matter of discernment and judgement"????? OK.....WHICH CHURCH IS THAT????? Is it INVISIBLE????????

    Stop it....that makes NO SENSE. That is not a criteria. That is the method that you use and your method is subjective. Can you not see this????

    Hi amadeus, I understood you very well. Here is what you said: Who has something more of that which is right? God knows! Who is hearing from God and who is hearing from man? God knows! I can tell you why I believe I am right as you can tell me why you believe that it is you that is right...

    Hi EG, I agree with you. The bible cannot contradict itself. But men, not inspired by the Holy Spirit, can and do. So my question for you is: How can a person 2,000 years after the death of the last Apostle "listen to the apostles"? They are all dead! Well, we can't. We can only read their...

    In 1 Corinthians 6 Paul is exhorting the members of the Church in Corinth for going to the state courts to settle their differences instead of settling it in The Church. This teaching, taking our differences to The Church so they can be settled by The Church, is also reaffirmed in Matthew...

    Ok....ONCE AGAIN: Who are you to decide if my Church's teachings are wrong? What criteria do you use?

    Another complete and utter lie. Now I can see why you hate The Church so much. You have believed the lies you have been told. Or are you self taught??

    I would not dare to disagree with The Church on any revealed truths (dogma). If you had a truth revealed to you would you disagree with it? Of course not.... The Church doesn't teach that we can't disagree with it soooooo you can put that lie to rest. You thinking that you are the pillar and...
