    Two Ways of thinking about OSAS

    Friend, although this forum topic is about OSAS (which is why I asked you to comment about the Unmerciful Servant having come under condemnation of the very thing for which he had been fully forgiven - which disproves OSAS, it seems), I'll simply say that the Bible makes a clear distinction...

    The Catholic Church gets put down a lot, but it was all that could help

    No, what I've written is what happened. Just as there are today men who believe themselves working for the cause of Christ while they selfishly skim from the collection plate, take advantage of vulnerable women (and children) of their congregations, compete with one another for who is the most...

    Yes, "ALL" have sinned, but not "ALL" are guilty in the sight of God, who winks at ignorance. Mary was neither a newborn nor impaired.

    The Catholic Church gets put down a lot, but it was all that could help

    Let's not be facetious, friend. "All" is often a relative term, depending on how it is applied, and can mean "all inhabitants of the world" or "all the then known world" or "all the world that impacts God's people", etc. The claim that "all have sinned" refers to the whole of humanity is...

    The Catholic Church gets put down a lot, but it was all that could help

    Not wanting to split hairs, but I would mention that although the "many antichrists" (those desiring the people to look to them rather than Christ) were around since the beginning, the "organized apostasy" of the modern day Catholic church really did not emerge until after Constantine's...

    The Catholic Church gets put down a lot, but it was all that could help

    "The Two Babylons" by Alexander Hislop proves unequivocally that Catholicism does not trace her roots to the primitive Christianity of 1st Century Palestine, but to the ancient Babylonian system of SUN WORSHIP. The ancients worshiped DAGON, the "fish god", and would skin fish carcasses leaving...

    The Catholic Church gets put down a lot, but it was all that could help

    Friend, in Catholicism exists the "Imprimatur - the official seal affixed to any Catholic document to signify "absolutely no heresy contained herein". Now since there are countless Catholic documents bearing the Imprimatur that make such outrageous, blasphemous claims as that the pope is "God...

    Two Ways of thinking about OSAS

    Don't know if i asked you this, friend. What do you say to the fact that in the parable of the Unmerciful Servant, the Servant begged for forgiveness, received it, went out forgiven, but because he refused to allow his character to be conformed to the likeness of the character of his Lord, he...

    The Catholic Church gets put down a lot, but it was all that could help

    You are free to believe that your Pope is "another God on earth" and "Jesus Christ hidden under the veil of flesh" and that his mediation is necessary for salvation, but I'll stick with Scripture which says, "There is ONE God and ONE mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus." 1 Timothy...

    Daniel`s 70 Weeks.

    So, it seems that the "444 B.C." idea is supported by (1) the events surrounding Nehemiah's request to return to Jerusalem and (2) the "princely" entry of Jesus into Jerusalem. If I've missed any other support, please share it again with me if you don't mind. Thanks.

    I appreciate you're having watched it. I disagree fully with your conclusion that it is full of inaccuracies. You haven't cited any specific objections to its account of history, which I would love to hear. It is indisputable fact that the Catholic church oppressed those who refused to trust in...

    Two Ways of thinking about OSAS

    You claim I need to come to Jesus to be saved. I agree. Now, I claim you need to stay with Jesus to remain saved. But, OSAS refuses this because it is always looking over the shoulder at the delights of sin, just as Lot's wife looked back in desire for the same. Remember Lot's wife, brother...

    I agree. "The church's one foundation, is Jesus Christ her Lord, she is His new creation by water and the Word!"

    Hey, B! We must remember that the pope DOES speak infallibly when he speaks "ex cathedra".

    The Catholic Church gets put down a lot, but it was all that could help

    No, we should not give Scripture a private interpretation, but one which is in harmony with the rest of Scripture. Please offer an explanation as to why the other disciples bickered about who was going to be the "pope" (Luke 9:46 KJV) after they'd all heard Jesus speak in their ears of His...

    Two Ways of thinking about OSAS

    Please explain the Unmerciful Servant, which describes a man who was condemned for an impossible debt, asked and received forgiveness, but wound up condemned again and responsible to repay the full amount of the original debt because he refused to allow his character to be brought into harmony...

    The Catholic Church gets put down a lot, but it was all that could help

    You've already been shown that the disciples argued over which one of them would be the head of the church AFTER they witnessed this encounter with Jesus. Do you really think that they would be arguing over this if they understood Jesus' words to mean the church was to be built on Peter...

    ANALYSIS OF MATTHEW 24:12-13 - WHY IT DISPROVES OSAS

    I am a firm believer of Revelation 22:18 KJV. No prophet is to add or take away from Scripture. I also believe Ephesians 4:11-14 KJV which says the gift of prophecy is to exist in the church "until we all come to a unity of the faith" and "a perfect man" and to the "fullness of Christ". No one...

    The fruits of OSAS and fruits its Opponent theolgy

    Actually, Jesus said, “I say unto you today thou shalt be with me in Paradise.” This verse can be understood two ways, only one being the truth: 1. “I say unto you, Today thou shalt be...” meaning both would go to Paradise that day. 2. “I say unto you today, Thou shalt be...” meaning Jesus was...
