    THE CHURCH IS NOT THE BRIDE OF CHRIST

    He's saying that you had better not rebel against God's message of Good News about His Son which you are hearing today, because OTHERS IN THE PAST rebelled against God's message to them (which, in fact, was "good news" to them--that they would inherit a land, etc)--the reason the writer uses the...

    Mary as New Eve

    The ordinary and universal magisterium is considered infallible in its teaching of faith and morals. This means that when the bishops, in union with the Pope, agree on a teaching on faith or morals, and propose it as definitively held, that teaching is considered infallible. The ordinary...

    THE CHURCH IS NOT THE BRIDE OF CHRIST

    The believing Gentiles are remnants of their Gentile nations (the rest of their nations are lost and are being destroyed), they are not remnants of the nation of Israel. They become part of the commonwealth of Israel, yes, but they are categorically not the remnants of the nation of Israel. LOL

    THE CHURCH IS NOT THE BRIDE OF CHRIST

    Yeah, Jesus is the offspring of David, and is the King of the Jews, the Christ (Messiah). What's the problem?

    THE CHURCH IS NOT THE BRIDE OF CHRIST

    The way forgiveness works is that the priest makes atonement, and, after that, then God forgives--Christ made atonement, and now God forgives. When Peter preaches Christ's sacrifice, he preaches God's forgiveness. Leviticus 4 20‘He shall also do with the bull just as he did with the bull of the...

    THE CHURCH IS NOT THE BRIDE OF CHRIST

    Yeah, and, accordingly, Paul says the Gentile believers, who neither possess (Ro 2:14) nor know the Law (Ro 7:1), qualify as "doers of the Law" (Ro 2:13, 14, 26, 27)--even without observing the days the Jews observe (Ro 14:5, 6).

    THE CHURCH IS NOT THE BRIDE OF CHRIST

    Because he was humble enough to want to verify it, because he got it by private revelation, not from men. Because Jesus already said He was sending Paul to the nations (Acts 9:15). It does not follow from "Paul says 'my Gospel'" that he is saying "My Gospel is different than Peter's"--that's a...

    THE CHURCH IS NOT THE BRIDE OF CHRIST

    @Doug Matthew 16:18“I also say to you that you are Peter, and upon this rock I will build My church According to you, those who hear and believe "Peter's Gospel" become part of "the remnant of Israel", which you say is Christ's bride, whereas those who hear and believe "Paul's Gospel" become...

    Mary as New Eve

    Again, the IC, which, in part, rests upon the foundation of Mary as the New Eve, is a doctrine declared ex-cathedra.

    THE CHURCH IS NOT THE BRIDE OF CHRIST

    "Faith" is simply believing what God says, what ever the message is. Abraham, for example, believed God that his descendants would be numerous as the stars (Gn 15:5,6). The Gospel was a mystery in the ages past (Ro 16:25). Today, however, there is one faith--because there is one Gospel, one...

    Mary as New Eve

    The claim of infallibility is a a very big claim, and it, apparently, rests on provably shaky ground.

    THE CHURCH IS NOT THE BRIDE OF CHRIST

    Yeah, if a Gentile JOINS Israel, the Torah says "there shall be one Law for the native born and the sojourner", so there wouldn't be an issue with Peter going to one of THEIR homes, but Cornelius WASN'T one of them, which was exactly why the Jews who went with Peter were ASTONISHED that...

    THE CHURCH IS NOT THE BRIDE OF CHRIST

    Not at all. Faith comes by hearing the Word of God, and there is only one faith, so there is only one message to put faith in. The "not at all" belongs to your unsubstantiable claim about there being more than one Gospel. You have many challenges to overcome to prove your claim, and you have...

    Mary as New Eve

    Meaning, how ever you want to view it is how you are going to view it--anyone who wants to discuss how it affects the claim to infallibility can discuss it with me.

    THE CHURCH IS NOT THE BRIDE OF CHRIST

    This passage goes into detail on how Abraham is father of many nations (Gentiles). Romans 4: 9Is this blessing then on the circumcised, or on the uncircumcised also? For we say, “FAITH WAS CREDITED TO ABRAHAM AS RIGHTEOUSNESS.” 10How then was it credited? While he was circumcised, or...

    Mary as New Eve

    Either way--how ever it does or does not affect "Catholicism"--the entire idea of Mary as New Eve is an error.

    Mary as New Eve

    Nope, she is stubbornly refusing to admit a very basic truth, which is unadulterated dishonesty, which demonstrates her commitment to dodging truth in all cases, so I'm not going to argue with a donkey.

    THE CHURCH IS NOT THE BRIDE OF CHRIST

    When Peter says Christ was raised to sit on David's throne, he's just talking about how Jesus is the Messiah LOL not differing with Paul. Both Paul and Peter identify Christ is the Messiah--and that's good, since Apostle John says if you deny that fact you are antichrist. Both Paul and Peter...
