Lol.....YOU are listening to Jesus however YOU reject the teachings of the Apostolic Fathers who were students of the Apostles!! Simply fascinating! @nedsk and I repeat words from Scripture which match up with the words from students of the Apostles and you say that WE are rejecting Jesus words...

Ummmm......me thinks that Ignatius, a student of the Apostle John, would have a more "authoritative understanding" of Johns writings than you EG soooooo there's that little problem you have! PS..........The Protestant men you adore from 500 years ago ruled with an iron fist also by killing...

@Eternally Grateful, who is interpreting the letters of John 2,000 years after they were written, believes that he is right when it comes to the Real Presence in the Eucharist and that a person that actually spoke to and was a student of the Apostle John is wrong about the Real Presence. And...

Got it. You don't belong to a church. Scripture says to take our differences to the church and if one refuses to listen to the church they are to be kicked out of the church (Matthew 18). I guess since you have never became a member of the church you can never be kicked out of the church. You...

Yes, I believe what Scripture teaches, and a person can lose their salvation and get it back ad-nauseum. God will forgive us 70x7 just like he asks us to forgive other 70x7. Apparantly you don't believe that? Paul writes to the Christians (people who already believe) in Cornith, Do not be...

YOUR teaching???? :jest: Scripture says that the church is the pillar and foundation of truth. Are YOU the church?

Lol...hold on....HOLD ON COWBOY.....Pull the reins back on your horse. "History will not help you."? Soooo if @nedsk and I repeat the history of a student of the Apostle John, that will not help us? But if you and your ilk like @LoveYeshua repeat the 500-year history of Protestant...

Hey EG. What man, that you are following, came up with this interpretation of Scripture? Curious Mary

You and your ilk use 500 year "history to crucify Christ" soooooo there's that!

The topic of this thread is "Is it possible to lose salvation?". In your OP you quoted "If anyone does not abide in Me, he is cast out as a branch and is withered; and they gather them and throw them into the fire, and they are burned." Yes, it is possible to lose salvation if you don't abide...

I agree with you. Christ is more believable when he said this IS my body. I agree with you. The Apostle Paul is more believable when he said it IS a participation in the body/blood of Christ. A student of the Apostle John is more believable than your Protestant men. What more is there to say...

Soooo let me see if understand you correctly. 2,000 years ago Jesus said this IS my body/blood and you say YES, it is, figuratively. 30 years later Paul then said it IS His body/blood and you say YES, it is, figuratively. Neither of them said it was figurative, but you say it is! That is your...

Good luck at what EG? Changing my mind on the 2,000-year teaching of Christianity? Ummmm....that will never happen. Unfortunately you and @mailmandan follow men, Protestant men, who changed their minds on the teachings of Christianity 500 years ago of which you and your ilk unfortunately follow...

I believe Jesus: Luke 22:19-20 Do you? I say YES to Paul: 1 Corinthians 10:16 Do you?

I look forward to your answer to my question: Who is more believable? The men you quoted who lived 500 years ago or less OR a student of an Apostle?

One simple question. When you and your fellow Christians gather to participate in the bread and wine, like Jesus told us to do, and you partake of the bread/wine during this gathering do you repeat His words 'this IS my body/blood'? Or do you say this is a SYMBOL of His body/blood?

Nope. Your teaching is 500 years old and comes from Protestant men who disagreed with The Church and it's 2,000 year teaching. Those Protestant men, the ones you blindly follow, even disagreed with each other. Some of those Protestant men accepted what Jesus said, this IS my body/blood, and some...

Lol...Case closed?? You quote men who lived roughly 500 years ago, and you accept their interpretation (writings) of Scripture. Would you accept the writings of men who lived 2,000 years ago? Ignatius of Antioch, who was a student of the Apostle John wrote, “Take note of those who hold...

Nope. Not true. Several months AFTER Jesus spoke those words in John 6 that we must eat and drink him he held up bread/wine and SHOWED them how to eat/drink Him. He TOLD them what to do in John 6 (eat/drink me) and then he SHOWED them how to do it at The Last Supper; "this IS my body/blood"...

Hey mailmaddan, Paul asked this question 30 years after the crucifixion of Christ: The cup of blessing which we bless, is it not the communion of the blood of Christ? The bread which we break, is it not the communion of the body of Christ? The context of that question is that he was talking...
