De Nile ain't just a river in Egypt. Rom 1:18-25 - Paul's teaching on the knowledge of the Creator and the ignorance and sin of idolatry follows Wis. 13:1-10. Rom. 1:20 - specifically, God's existence being evident in nature follows Wis. 13:1. Rom. 1:23 - the sin of worshipping mortal man...

Really? Where? Did you know all your verses apply to hypocritical Jews, and not to the Church? You quote wrecklessly.

Matt. 16:18 - also, in quoting "on this rock," the Scriptures use the Greek construction "tautee tee" which means on "this" rock; on "this same" rock; or on "this very" rock. "Tautee tee" is a demonstrative construction in Greek, pointing to Peter, the subject of the sentence (and not his...

One the great church historians of the nineteenth century, German Lutheran scholar Adolf Harnack, bemoaned the ignorance his mainly Lutheran university students displayed of Catholicism: I am convinced from constant experience of the fact that the students who leave our schools have the most...

Do you think that because the consensus of the Early Church Fathers are not scripture, they are meaningless? We would not have a Bible at all if it were not for them. Peter had prominence from Jesus, it didn't matter where he went. Peter had prominence all over the NT, you just ignore it...

OFFICE OF POPE IN THE BIBLE Isa. 22: 19 I will thrust you from your office, and you will be pulled down from your station. Shebna is described as having an "office" and a "station." An office, in order for it to be an office, has successors. In order for an earthly kingdom to last, a...

You have been refuted in post #120 (my last post, it's easy to find) and haven't dealt with any of it. You ran from my list of Protestant scholars in post #108. You dismissed 70+ verses showing Kepha's primacy in post #113, which you claim you do not deny, thus contradicting yourself. Your...

I have addressed the point by quoting Protestant scholars. You just don't like them. The primacy of Kepha does not rest on two words translated to a single verse. His primacy has to be in harmony with the whole of Scripture, which you seem to deny. Then there is the consensus of the Early...

The Christ is the rock theory: 19 And I will give unto me the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever I shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever I shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven. Kepha's faith is the rock theory 19 And I will give your confession of...

I give up. You win. And all the Protestant scholars in post #108, must be wrong.

Which point is that? The thread is 4 pages long. You can't compare John the Baptist with Kepha because Kepha was a representative to the King in the Royal House of David, and John was a prophet. apples/oranges. The Gentiles, though called later than the Jews, should be made partakers of the...

It's in primitive form in Scripture. from a previous post: Rom. 1:8 First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for all of you, because your faith is proclaimed (KATAnggeletai) in all the world.(en HOLO to kosmo) Acts 9:31 "So the church throughout all Judea and Galilee and Sama'ria had peace...

THE PRIMACY OF PETER Matt. to Rev. - Peter is mentioned 155 times and the rest of apostles combined are only mentioned 130 times. Peter is also always listed first except in 1 Cor 3:22 and Gal. 2:9 (which are exceptions to the rule). Matt 10:2; Mark 1:36; 3:16; Luke 6:14-16; Act 1:3; 2:37; 5:29...

So you are refuting yourself? What Jesus actually said in Aramaic has more weight than a Greek translation. Greek is a human language, but it is treated as if it was a divine language. GREEK GRAMMAR DOES NOT DICTATE WHAT JESUS MEANT. I have never gone with a "scribal error" and I have never...

No. Relax. It was a joke. MYTH OF THE SPANISH INQUISITION It's not Monty Python

Our leaders are divinely appointed to teach and guide. To "feed my sheep". Did that command from Jesus to Peter expire? Why was this command given exclusively to Peter?

A cop out, evasive non-reply. A red herring. Why? To have cheap labor? Is a Christian slave 3/5 saved?

Do you have a verse that supports this rule, or is it extra-biblical? I have about 20 Pauline quotes that allude, follows, refers to, describes or leads to an OT prophecy that very few has 'as it is written' or 'what saith the Scripture', DEUTEROCANONICAL BOOKS IN THE NEW TESTAMENT

Attempting to crown Jesus? Got a verse? Are you an expert on the conclave? The Bible came from the Catholic Church, or were the inspired books self assembled? but what do you care what I believe? Just make up a comfy bible origin fantasy and la de da de da. With all due respect, "we" are...
