I cited the scripture, which was 600 years before that apostate Council (Matthew 10:17; Mark 13:9). Why would you accept that council over the Bible? "... The Lateran Council of 649 was a local council of the Church of Rome organized by Maximus the Confessor and called by Pope Theodore I of...

Yep. Show me where 'Mary' (who was still alive at the time; Acts 1:14) was one of them. She wasn't. She did not return with Jesus to Heaven. One who might have, might be John the Baptist, but neither the scripture, nor historical source, nor SoP/ToJ say. They are not the 24 elders, who were...

Mar_13:9 But take heed to yourselves: for they shall deliver you up to councils; and in the synagogues ye shall be beaten: and ye shall be brought before rulers and kings for my sake, for a testimony against them. That a 'council' of apostates (since the times even before Constantine...

I was Roman Catholic for 30 years, confirmed, etc and even briefly ministered in a specialized ministry of which EWTN stated were "Experts in their field.", which field dealt with the history of the Catholic Church, its saints, miracles, places of visitation, &c. The ministry still exists...

Thanks for that precious admission. Thus historicism itself has a chain of history connecting it to that which went before, and if followed, exists even before them.

Additionally, if Roman Catholicism's theology desires to have this “woman” of Revelation 12 as 'Mary', then do they desire also to teach as the scripture does, that this “woman” of Revelation 12 had more descendants, as this “woman”, being the people of God throughout the ages, has numerous...

Now, Roman Catholicism, has a more sinister theology in regards Mary, as they teach that she is the Ark of the Covenant, and the Woman of Revelation 12. However, the "woman" of Revelation 12, though in small part includes Mary (for she is one of the people of God, whom the woman represents, who...

We can also pause and rethink the position of Mary a little more. Another point, in that Mary did not ever-remain a virgin, for she also had to be purified after the birth of Jesus ('...when the days of her purification according to the law of Moses were accomplished..." - Luke 2:22; Leviticus...

There is no scripture which reveals that Mary was 'assumed into Heaven', and the Apostle John wrote nothing of it in scripture and he was the one given charge of her and she of him, and he outlived her. Roman Catholicism itself says: No, and even Rome fully admits this, for they base it on...

Let us continue further still. For we shall see that the so-called (Hyper Dulia) 'veneration' of Mary is usurping the worship of God: It is written of Jesus: "holy, harmless, undefiled, separate from sinners" [Hebrews 7:26] that "holy thing" [Luke 1:35] and "holy child" [Acts 4:27,30] born...

What does even the Angel Gabriel say in the Gospel of Luke? Gabriel says of Mary, "... Mary: for thou hast found favour with God." (Luke 1:30) [many have found favour with God, for He is gracious, merciful, loving] Gabriel says of Jesus, "...holy thing..." (Luke 1:35) (Compare Acts 4:27,30...

Jesus also later directly asks so that there was no confusion regarding His mission, "Who is my mother? and who are my brethren?" (Matthew 12:48; Mark 3:33) Jesus tells us the answer to the question, "And he stretched forth his hand toward his disciples, and said, Behold my mother and my...

"theotokos", really? Let us take a look at the scriptural (KJB) “Mary” [Matthew 1:16,18,20, 2:11, 13:55; Mark 6:3; Luke 1:27,30,34,38,39,41,46,56, 2:5,16,19,34; Acts 1:14], “the mother of Jesus” [John 2:1,3; Acts 1:14; see also “his mother” - Matthew 1:18, 2:11; Luke 2:34,43; John 19:25; and...

The King's Army is his. It is his "arm". The son of the father is also the father's. When the son carries out the will of the father (by command), the son is the "arm" of the father. For instance, when the father issues a command, "Pick up that block of wood.", to the son, and the son obeys...

Again, read the context: Isa 46:1 Bel boweth down, Nebo stoopeth, their idols were upon the beasts, and upon the cattle: your carriages were heavy loaden; they are a burden to the weary beast. Isa 46:2 They stoop, they bow down together; they could not deliver the burden, but themselves are...

Read the context. Isa 44:6 Thus saith the LORD the King of Israel, and his redeemer the LORD of hosts; I am the first, and I am the last; and beside me there is no God. Isa 44:7 And who, as I, shall call, and shall declare it, and set it in order for me, since I appointed the ancient people...

Simple, in the places I cited, the 'arm' is symbolic (spiritual), even as people who obey my commands, are the extension of my will to carry it out: 1Sa_2:31 Behold, the days come, that I will cut off thine arm, and the arm of thy father's house, that there shall not be an old man in thine...

Again, another misrepresentation of my actual position (again you strawmanned). Deity did not and cannot die. Humanity died. Additionally, Jesus said: Joh 10:17 Therefore doth my Father love me, because I lay down my life, that I might take it again. Joh 10:18 No man taketh it from me, but...

"Arm" is a reference to the Son, as the Son is the Person which works out the Will of the Father, see Genesis 1; Proverbs 8, &c. It does not mean that the Son is 'part' of the Father's Person. It is spiritual 1Sa_2:31 Behold, the days come, that I will cut off thine arm, and the arm of thy...

You misrepresented (strawmanned) my position (which is the scriptural position). There is no nature of Deity except JEHOVAH's Deity. JEHOVAH Elohiym is a family (three Persons, the Father, the Son and the Holy Ghost), not a 'singularity' (not arianism, nor unitarianism, nor modalism, nor...
