GodsGrace said: Why do you think he learned from Polycarp? Because he wrote to him and then contacted him.

Peter died of old age in Babylon, and Jesus hints at it being so. Peter went to the real Babylon with son, Marcus the gospel writer.

It means God is with us.

The quotes prove otherwise. And many works have plagiaristic variants or are plagiarisms themselves. It is true that he became more unitarian as talked to Polycarp. Thus there is variation, at least, in his theology.

Here I don't agree. There is too much speculation is Early Church History. The only which can be proven is that Polycarp said himself to have known John and Cerinthus. We know certainly that he had a gospel of John and he knew who Valentinus was.

I like the English summary. The Blue Letter Bible. I should probably use my own software. ? It has nothing to do with Ignatius' doctrine where the name of God be Jesus Christ. I know Ignatius doesn't credit John but rather Polycarp as to what he knows. You'll be less offended then, I hope...

Interesting, but it doesn't quote the ECFs. Where within the ECFS, do they say Ignatius to have been a student of John the apostle? I will google it. "Ignatius of Antioch, an early Christian writer and martyr, is traditionally believed to be a disciple of the Apostle John, influencing early...

Trump is great on immigration, but I don't have to like him.

"God is with us" would be a pathetic Hebrew name.

No, I still don't. If someone says they believe in the Deity of Christ, it should mean Jesus's own God-- Yahweh. Thus, I don't know what you are talking about!

Vague? The salvation was of the Jews, and the Samaritans thought Yahweh be shaped like a man. What did I supposedly miss?

"3 can keep a secret if 1 is dead" Ben Franklin

Do you have any trust issues with God, then?

To understand or not to understand? This is my question.

I believe consideration is better than love. Agape means this. Consideration is better than loving people. Trump loved Epstein, but he only considered Maxwell, for example. Good night.

@Hiddenthings @shepherdsword Doesn't the story of the good Samaritan prove God doesn't care about theological dogma?

The Holy Spirit is of God. It is directed towards doing good. Ananias lied to the one who has the Holy Spirit meaning God. Subtle difference, but true, nonetheless.

Blasphemy means slander.
