1 John 1:5-10 to 1 John 2:1-2 [NKJV] 5 This is the message which we have heard from Him and declare to you, that God is light and in Him is no darkness at all. 6 If we say that we have fellowship with Him, and walk in darkness, we lie and do not practice the truth. 7 But if we walk in the light...

A little strong, but VERY funny. Hopefully they just belong to a Syrian Christian Church and it is simply the bible version they use. (but probably not.)

So how much does it cost in 2021$ to buy my brother out of Hell? Luther had a problem with the price being charged in the time of the Reformation, but according to your quote from the RCC ... there has never been anything wrong. I know that Luther thought it was wrong for Cardinals to have...

I was making a joke ... they are big on APOSTLES still walking among us. :)

I would look up all those verses ... but I already know that "and their successors" comes from TRADITION rather than SCRIPTURE. There is really no point in reliving the Reformation and revisiting the 5 Solas. The RCC cleaned up the rampant political corruption that NECESSITATED a revolt, and we...

Tread lightly or you will draw Mormons like moths to a flame. ;)

So close ... missed it by inches: John 20:21-23 [NKJV] 21 So Jesus said to them again, "Peace to you! As the Father has sent Me, I also send you." 22 And when He had said this, He breathed on them, and said to them, "Receive the Holy Spirit. 23 "If you forgive the sins of any, they are...

Then YOU have not BEATEN YOUR SWORD INTO A PLOW, have you? Your correction of me rings untrue. (and the irony is that I did trade my guns for the cross in 1979 when God called me out of my old life and into HIS service ... only when the 2020 'BLM' riots made "home defense" a real need for...

Not a CHRISTIAN ... they also WAGED WAR in the OT. So CHRISTIANS may either "wage war" and "drive carts/cars" or CHRISTIANS may neither "wage war" nor "drive carts/cars" based on the evidence in the BIBLE. OT: Stories of Jews waging war and driving carts NT: No stories of Christians waging...

You need to reread Paul since you missed what he actually SAID about the Ten Commandments (like "Thou shall not covet").

What happens if a Christian sins? (breaks one of the commandments) (I am confused my your meaning of "obligated"; does he cease to be a Christian?) obligated (transitive verb): to bind legally or morally; borrowed from Latin obligātus, past participle of obligāre "to tie up, restrain by...

That was a mean-spirited response to someone that had shown you nothing but polite graceful conversation. She did not deserve it and it reflects poorly on you. :( Save tit-for-tat for those that deserve it.

No we have not (Luke 22:36) ... that is for the FINAL kingdom when all enemies are cast into the lake of fire and Jesus rules in complete peace.

"being ready to punish all disobedience" ... carnal and spiritual Matthew 25:34-40 ... spiritual warfare using carnal weapons. Mark 12:17 ... doesn't say "except military service"

Verse, please ... that is my point.

I teach none of those. No OSAS. No Sunday sacredness. No antinomianism. I teach what Jesus and John and Paul taught … the GRACE of God that is found in Christ, which sets us free from the Law that brings only knowledge of sin and death. (Romans 7-8)

[Luke 18:11-12 NKJV] "The Pharisee stood and prayed thus with himself, 'God, I thank You that I am not like other men--extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even as this tax collector [or Protestant]. 'I fast twice a week; I give tithes of all that I possess.'[and I keep your Sabbath commandment...

(Post edited for readability by the comprehension impaired JW among us) Nope, I don't disagree at all. Jesus Is Our Truth, Reward, And Faithfulness So We Can Lie, Steal, and Fornicate! Any and every claim to righteousness that I have comes from Jesus and not from any innate goodness in me. If...

Spoken like a true Pharisee. Stick to the Teachers and never mind what anyone actually says … including Jesus.

Only by extracting verses from their context and whitewashing with heavy eisegesis can you hold this together.
