    When did the universal Church first mentioned in 110AD stop being universal?

    Allow me to explain how the bible was proven to be inspired in the 3rd-4th centuries, not the 15TH OR THE 21st., using the facts of history. There is a summary below. The Bible is initially approached as any other ancient work. It is not, at first, presumed to be inspired. From textual...

    When did the universal Church first mentioned in 110AD stop being universal?

    Infallibility: In general, exemption or immunity from liability to error or failure; in particular in theological usage, the supernatural prerogative by which the Church of Christ is, by a special Divine assistance, preserved from liability to error in her definitive dogmatic teaching regarding...

    When did the universal Church first mentioned in 110AD stop being universal?

    If I believed half the lies about the Catholic Church as you do, I would hate her twice as much. You are preaching that Jesus builds junk, and that He LIED about His promised protection. BAD BEHAVIOR has NOTHING TO DO WITH INFALLIBLE TEACHING AND bad leaders never taught anything anyway.

    Rom. 3:20,28; Gal. 2:16,21; 3:2,5,10; Eph. 2:8-9 - many err in their understanding of what Paul means by "works of the law” in his teaching on justification. Paul’s teaching that we are not justified by “works of the law” refer to the law of Moses or to any legal system that makes God our...

    The Cross And Moses' Bronze Serpent

    That's right, the Church's teaching on hell is disturbing to liberals and atheists, so they ignore it. People choose hell by their own volition, unlike your Johnny Calvin who says God creates people just to send them there. You’re trying to set the Bible against the Church, which is typical...

    Soul sleep

    Succinct refutation of the soul sleep theory, Angela. Here's my $0.02: Dan 12:2, 1 Cor 15:51 These verses use what is known as phenomenological language, the language of appearances. Phenomenological language occurs when we describe something as it looks, irrespective of how it is. The classic...

    When did the universal Church first mentioned in 110AD stop being universal?

    Where is the cohesive alternative explanation and exegesis? You offered none, just an empty accusation of "eisegesis". It's not my fault you can't tell the difference between MEANING and TERM. The TERM infallibility is not there, the MEANING is. The TERMS "Trinity and Incarnation" are not in...

    When did the universal Church first mentioned in 110AD stop being universal?

    I did, in post #264. That's just 7 of them, there are plenty more. You want me to provide scriptures after I have provided scriptures. :wacko: You prove my point when I said, "I have observed that no sola scripturist can understand what infallibility means, even with 1000 explanations"...

    When did the universal Church first mentioned in 110AD stop being universal?

    Yes, I should add that in, even though it is a little off topic and I can't cover every important factor. The theopneustos of the Bible is never pitted against the Church. This leads to setting the Bible against the Church, which is typical Protestant methodology, and ultra-unbiblical. The...

    When did the universal Church first mentioned in 110AD stop being universal?

    Well, that rules out the New Testament as infallible, unless you think it fell from the sky. The canon of scripture did not come about by itself. It came about by 4 centuries of discernment by the Church and no amount of bible origin fantasies can change that fact. I have observed that no sola...

    When did the universal Church first mentioned in 110AD stop being universal?

    I have provided summaries of evidence in the above post, then you accuse me of not providing evidence. But you are right, we can't have a rational discussion when you throw in straw man fallacies. The list of the usage, in various ways, of the Deuterocanonical books in the New Testament, is too...

    Clever questions atheists can't answer - answered!

    Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia said that the Constitution was never meant to be neutral about religion. Indeed, he said, “there is no place for that in our constitutional tradition.” He admitted that “you can’t favor one denomination over another,” but that doesn’t mean that religion...

    Clever questions atheists can't answer - answered!

    How much did this blessing allegedly cost? Who received it? There is no evidence on line or wikipedia that the government paid any church or Catholic clergy to bless the Trade Center cross. It's contrary to canon law to accept money for a blessing for any reason. Fr. Mychal Judge, the...

    The Cross And Moses' Bronze Serpent

    Deut. 4:16 - in early history Israel was forbidden to make images of God because God didn't yet reveal himself visibly "in the form of any figure." Deut. 4:17-19 - hence, had the Israelites depicted God not yet revealed, they might be tempted to worship Him in the form of a beast, bird...

    Who or What is Antichrist?

    You have no evidence, no sources, no reputable historians, just funnymentalist hate propaganda. If the research is beyond your academic level, you have no business posting things you cannot or will not prove. Here's some homework for you. All citations are from Protestant or secular scholars...

    Pope prays with Protestants on Reformation day

    2. No one is unaware of the challenge which all this poses to believers. They cannot fail to meet this challenge. Indeed, how could they refuse to do everything possible, with God's help, to break down the walls of division and distrust, to overcome obstacles and prejudices which thwart the...
