Matthew 16:18 New Living Translation Now I say to you that you are Peter (which means 'rock'), and upon this rock I will build my church, and all the powers of hell will not conquer it. English Standard Version And I tell you, you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my church, and the...

Apostolic Succession as Seen in the Jerusalem Council Here is a compelling biblical argument for an infallible Church, and against sola Scriptura.

You unrealistically expect a 21 century papacy to look identical to the 1st century church, you have no concept of doctrinal development. If what you say is true, the doctrines they taught would be seriously flawed. This is contrary to Jesus' promises. I am not talking about arguing over a...

Mark 3:16; John 1:42 – Jesus renames Simon “Kepha” in Aramaic which literally means “rock.” This was an extraordinary thing for Jesus to do, because “rock” was not even a name in Jesus’ time. Jesus did this, not to give Simon a strange name, but to identify his new status among the apostles...

Scripture doesn't use terms like "incarnation" or "Trinity" either. Where does scripture demand the use of English terms describing Peter's office? Using Protestant scholars, I have posted extensively on the keys. The problem with you is you reject even Protestant scholars. But you don't...

"All devotions and practices must be explicitly found in scripture to be valid" IS NOT IN SCRIPTURE. It's a Protestant man made tradition. Honor to Mary and Peter needed time to develop, just as the Bible itself needed 350 years to develop. If you look at the first 350 years of Christianity...

Eph. 2:20 is a quote from a Catholic book. We know what it means. "god like standards"??? You guys never tire of inventing straw man fallacies and misrepresentations. What you are saying is Jesus was powerless and had no authority to appoint a chief steward to run things while Jesus was in...

4. Peter Commanded to “Feed My Sheep” (John 21:15-17) John 21:15-17 “So when they had dined, Jesus saith to Simon Peter, Simon, son of Jonas, lovest thou me more than these? He saith unto him, Yea, Lord; thou knowest that I love thee. He saith unto him, Feed my lambs. “He saith to him again...

G. New Bible Commentary “Eliakim stands in strong contrast to Shebna . . . Godward he is called `my servant’ (v.20; cf. `this steward’, v.15); manward, he will be `a father’ to his community (v.21) . . . “The opening words of v.22, with their echo of 9:6, emphasize the God-given...

That's not a rebuttal, it's an excuse to cling to a dead rotten albatross around your neck. There is a difference between a qualified opinion and a conjured opinion and I don't think you can tell the difference. You wanna hang on to Luther's interpretation errors, that's your business, but what...

J. Peter in the New Testament “Precisely because of the Aramaic identity of `Kepha’/`kepha’, there can be no doubt that the rock on which the church was to be built was Peter. Is this true also for Matthew in whose Greek there is the slight difference `Petros’/`petra’? Probably the most common...

Primacy of St. Peter Verified by Protestant Scholars Matthew 16:18 A. New Bible Dictionary “. . . That the rock is Peter himself . . . is found almost as early as the other [interpretation], for Tertullian and the bishop, whether Roman or Carthaginian, against whom he thundered in De...

The first councils to do so were the regional councils of Hippo (393) and Carthage (397). It's true they were regional councils of north Africa but their findings were sent to the transmarine church (Rome) for final ratification. That is when the Pope canonized the holy books. C of Nicae had a...

Talk about clinging on to a rotten albatross around your neck, and you refuse to let go of outdated irrelevant reformist rhetoric that's 500 years old. A MAJORITY of Protestant scholars today accept the primacy of Peter. So what? Peter was a hypocrite in that instance, and so Paul rebuked him...

yea, like you actually read mine

HATING MOTHER TERESA MOTHER TERESA'S CRITICS UNDONE MOTHER TERESA EARNED SAINTHOOD

I am not the one regurgitating comments from a Christian hating atheist and a leftist Hindu politician, both with an agenda against a great saint of our time. Be more discerning with what you paste. Your OP is a joke. What I hate are the sick lies in your op. There is nothing "Christian" about...

What makes you think Saint Mother Teresa's example didn't win any souls to Christ? Why is it so important to you that I go to Calcutta? Your demands on me are unrealistic. Have you met her personally? Is there something wrong with you? MT wasn't called to lead people in the sinners prayer, she...

There is a lesson to be learned from this story, and that is this. When God's chosen people decided to do their own thing and follow pagan ways, God let their enemies destroy them. Now we Christians, the new chosen people of the New Testament, have to ask ourselves if we aren't going down the...

Go over all my posts, I defend when things are attacked by ignorant anti-Catholics, I don't go out of my way to preach Catholic doctrine. Your remark about the great whore deserves some attention, because it's so stupid. It's found on every board on the internet because it's rebellious and...
