    Where does the Pope get his authority?

    As Paul explains in Romans 7 that, as long as we’re in these bodies on this earth, we don’t “escape” sin t However – those of us in Christ get to escape the consequences of sin. As John admits 1 John 1:8 It says, "If we claim to be without sin, we deceive ourselves and the truth is not in us."...

    Where does the Pope get his authority?

    No – you’re just another arrogant poster on an obscure little discussion forum who has bought into the delusion of his own “greatness”. The only thing you’re an “expert” on is dodging Scripture and history . . . And YOU accuse ME of cherry-picking verses . . . The “Word” of John 1:1 is the...

    Where does the Pope get his authority?

    Nonsense. I just gave you SEVERAL teachings on it from Scripture- and YOU provided nothing in the form of a Scriptural refutation. Those "scattered verses" are the sacred, inerrant Word of Almighty GOD. Nice try . . .

    Where does the Pope get his authority?

    Because YOU claimed that the term "New Testament" was not Scriptural - I provided Scriptural evidence that Christ's Church has the Authority to call it whatever it wants to.

    Where does the Pope get his authority?

    The difference is that I provided historical evidence for my position. YOU provided nothing but your opinion . . .

    Where does the Pope get his authority?

    Ummmm, speaking of ignorance . . . First of all - Paul is "the guy" from Romans. Secondly, "redeemed" simply means that you've been paid for at a price (1 Cor. 6:20) and now have way OUT from sin through Christ. It does NOT mean that you will never sin again. Paul's entire message here (Rom...

    Where does the Pope get his authority?

    That's the most arrogant and Scripturally-bankrupt claim I've read on this forum. You're a flawed, imperfect sinner in need of God's mercy like the rest of us (Rom. 7:7-25) . . .

    Where does the Pope get his authority?

    That's a good question. Perhaps the Moods could explain . . .

    CALVINISM: The height of Spiritual depravity

    WRONG. In Acts 1, when the Apostles and about 110 others gathered to elect a successor to Judas - Peter quotes Psalm 109 when he says: Acts 1:20 “‘Let another take his office.’ The Greek word used here for office is “Episkopay”, which means “Bishopric”. The Apostles occupied the office of...

    Where does the Pope get his authority?

    For your information – the Trinity is a banned topic on this forum. However – since YOU in dire need of education – I’ll help you out here . . . Under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit - John calls the Son, “GOD.” John 1:1 In the beginning was the Word and the Word was with God and the word...

    Where does the Pope get his authority?

    For that matter “Bible” isn’t a word that appears in Scripture – so why do YOU use it? It’s called the “New Testament” because Jesus gave His Church the Authority to declare such a thing. What part of the following do you NOT understand? Matt. 16:19 / M1tt. 18:18 Amen, I say to you, WHATEVER...

    CALVINISM: The height of Spiritual depravity

    Not sure where you get your information – but “History”, it ain’t . . . At NO time did the Catholic Church “break off”. Being the Original Tree of Christianity, it could HARDLY break off from itself. Historically-speaking – the Early Christian Church was being called “The Catholic Church” by...

    Where does the Pope get his authority?

    That's an asinine statement. NONE of your Protestant Fathers ever made such a claim. It was the Catholic Church that gave us the Canon of the New Testament (383 AD). EVERY basic tenet of Christianity was introduced to the WORLD through the Catholic Church. The Triune Godhead, Salvation by...

    Where does the Pope get his authority?

    WRONG. It came from Scripture . . . (Gen. 1:26, Matt. 28:19, John 15:26, 1 Cor. 12:4-6, 2 Cor. 13:14, 1 John 5:7, Eph. 4:6, Psalm 68:5, Mal. 2:10, Isa. 63:16, 2 Cor. 1:3-4, John 3:16, John 8:41, 1 Thess. 3:13, Isa. 7:14, Isa. 9:6, John 1:1, John 1:3, John 8:58, John 10:30, John 15:9, John 20:28...

    Absolutely!

    Where does the Pope get his authority?

    Not true, Einstein. Peter's successor was Lonus (67-76) Can you show me where the BIBLE says this? Chapter and Verse, please . . .

    Where does the Pope get his authority?

    Nope. To pick a successor for Judas's office (Acts 1:20). Don't you have access to a Bible?

    Where does the Pope get his authority?

    And you're a liar. YOU listed them as mere "descriptions"" of the "ONE" title you claimed he had: "... the pope’s official title is: “Bishop of Rome, Vicar of Jesus Christ" Get over yourself . . .

    Where does the Pope get his authority?

    And Jesus ALREADY addressed this in verse 17 - so WHY would He repeat Himself in verse 18, Einstein? In verse 17, Jesus blesses Peter for relaying a truth that the Father revealed. In verse 18, Jesus blesses him a 2md time by telling him that because of this, He will build His Church on him...

    Where does the Pope get his authority?

    ALL of the Apostles had successors to their offices. In Acts 1, the Apostles and inner circle gathered to choose a successor for Judas. Peter, quoting the Psalms, said: "Let another take his office" (Acts 1:20). The Greek word for "office" used here is "Episkopay" (Bishopric). A Bishopric is...
