WRONG. The Church AND the Bible are the Authority needed for doctrine. Don’t forget – the Bible came out of the CHURCH - and NOIT the other way around. For the first 300 years of the Church – there NO Canon of Scripture. There were MANY Books that were considered to be Scripture and were read...

blah, blah, blah . . . Ummm, car to provide a link to reference this gibberish? WHAT are you blathering about?

Rev. 5:8 And when he had taken it, the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fell down before the Lamb. Each one had a harp and they were holding golden bowls full of incense, which are the prayers of God’s people. This is the very picture of intercession. If it’s NOT – why are they...

And what would those teachings BE that aren’t being taught?

Soooo, you don’t believe that Scripture is our sole Authority?? Scripture is and authoritative PART of the full package that God has equipped us with – which includes the Authority of His CHURCH. Matt. 18:15-18 If he refuses to listen to them, tell the CHURCH. If he refuses to listen even to...

Once AGAIN – where does it say that it is our “Sole Authority”? The verses you posted say that Scripture is “Profitable”, or “Helpful”. It doesn’t say that it is “Sufficient” or that it is ALL we need. You know what it DOES say? It says that the CHURCH is our final earthly Authority (Matt...

The most human thing that we do is to reject Authority. It’s been going on since the Garden of Eden. Jesus gave His Church the Authority to teach what He taught them – and they wrote much of it down. With the guidance of the Holy Spirit, He gave that Church the Authority to compile and decide...

WRONG. It shows that His love is boundless . . .

In a nutshell - It is the implementation of rampant individual interpretation and the rejection of the Authority of Christ's Church (Matt. 16:18-19, Luke. 10:16. John 20:21-23), whom He promised to lead that to ALL TRUTH (John 16:12-15).

Uhhh - STILL waiting on an answer to the following questions you've been running from . . . 1. Can YOU show me where the Bible says that we are ONLY yo adhere to what is in the Bible?? 2. What did the Christians do for the first 300 years of the Church when there was NO Canon of Scripture??

According to YOU – but NOT according to Scripture (Matt. 7:19-23, Matt. 10:22, Matt. 24:13, Matt. 25:31–46, John 15:1-6, Rom. 11:22, 1 Cor. 4:4, 1 Cor. 9:27, 1 Cor. 10:12, 1 Tim. 4:1, 1 Tim. 4:16, 2 Tim. 2:12, Heb. 3:6, Heb. 3:12-14, Heb. 6:4-6, Heb. 10:26-27, 2 Pet. 2:20-21, 2 Pet. 3:17, 1 John...

Good grief, this is a frighteningly stupid remark . . . “Tradition”, by definition is something that is NOT written down in Scripture. WHY would you insist that they would be?? John tells us that Jesus did MANY things that were NOT written down (John 21:25). He left a Church - NOT a Book to...

Ummm, Jesus was speaking of the Pharisees and scribes who were living hypocritical lives and placing their traditions ABOVE the word of God and the spirit of the Law (Matt. 15:9, Mark 7:5-9). He was NOT condemning ALL Tradition. Time for a Bible Lesson . . . Paul tells us that we are to "Stand...

The point here is that I didn't rip Rev. 5:8 out of context . . . It illustrates people in Heaven interceding on OUR behalf by taking OUR prayers to God as "golden bowls of incense". You ALSO dodged my questions and never answered them: 1. Can YOU show me where the Bible says that we are ONLY...

Hmmmmm . . . . Non Catholic doctrines and practices NOT found in the Bible: - Sola Scripture – The Bible is out SOLE Authority - Eternal Security (“Once Saved, Always Saved”) - Born-again believers can't sin - Altar Calls - A Pre-Trib “Rapture” - Denominations - Accepting Christ as...

No. We don’t “re-sacrifice Him. That would be heresy. His was a once-for-all sacrifice (Heb. 9:12, Heb. 10:10). We must also remember that Jesus’s sacrifice is ETERNAL (Rev. 5:6). We re-present His once-for-all sacrifice and are brought to Calvary at every Mass. At every Easter, Christians ALL...

Transubstantiation occurs specifically during the consecration of the Eucharist. Jesus is referring to His spiritual presence in Matt 18:20, not His physical presence.

Not only is this patently FALSE – it is as ignorant and stupid as everything else you say on the topic . . . Just a quick browse through the Catechism would show you that virtually EVERY paragraph in there is supported with multiple verses of Scripture. Many Traditions are also implicitly based...

I The usual Greek word used for human eating is “phagon”, however, this is NOT the word used in these passages. John uses the word, “trogon”, which means, “to munch or to gnaw “- like an animal. Jesus was again using hyperbole as he often did to drive his point across so that the crowd would...

You are correct. It is a matter of discipline, not dogma or doctrine.
