For the disciples to show up with ice cream? I think i did respond.... I will look through the thread later

I agree. I hestitate to say it is random. It is presented in an order which I don't fully understand myself. But it isn't chronological.

Unless he's plagiarizing, he did type those posts. He probably has been working on them for years. Problem is he came to this board and posted his "greatest hits" album all at once. Perhaps he will take slower steps now.

It's the flooding of your posts that is.... Shall I say, looked down upon. You would do better to introduce one topic at a time. This particular topic is interesting. You have some different ideas that I simply haven't thought of. That doesn't make it good or bad. Just a different take. I...

It seemed to me that this thread was started to ask questions of Catholics in order to hear what they believe. It was about answering questions and tirned into question the answers. I participated and got a pretty thurough answer. Do I accept the answer as truth? No, but it wasn't set up to...

I don't know. The Bible doesn't say either way. But there are some curious things to think about. Jesus was bidded to the wedding at Cana. They ran out of wine and Jesus was expected to supply more wine? Why is this being asked of a mere guest? Heb 4:15 say Jesus was tempted in all manner...

I have a question: What is the current Catholic teaching about purgatory? 1. Do all Christians have to go there to be purified before going to paradise or heaven? 2. Can our prayers reduce the sentence of loved ones in purgatory? 3. Can indulgences reduce the sentence of ourselves or loved...

Iiafailrock, Long day... Foggy mind! Im not sure what your point of view is. Do you believe that Enoch wrote the Book of Enoch? I saw points in your post which make me think you do, and other points which make me think you don't. My perception is that it was written by a prophet (guided...

You said Jude did not quote the so called book of Enoch. I believe he did. I made a few points as background information. But I quoted what you said and that's what I disagreed with. Perhaps all the background information I gave watered down my point. But other than that, I thought it was...

What I agree with Catholics is the importance of Church... Not only the Body of Christ, but the actual and physical coming together of people in one place, with leafership and a sense of order. But no... That is not righteousness nor factors into righteousness. We are righteous because of...

I am going to have to disagree with you on that point. At least disagree with what I perceive you are saying. Let me make a few statements: 1. The book of Enoch was not written by Enoch. It is commonly thought to have been written around 200 BC. Its more word of mouth and oral tradition of...

Are you asking or do you have a rival hypothesis? Should we count otherwise? I think not. It seems seasonable to me in that God was speaking of a royal bloodline. God's royal boodline also passed through David through Solomon and Nathan. But I seem to recall he had other chilren before those...

Good heavens! Talk about your questions that can't be answered in 10 thousand words or less.... Ok. First, I don't have a concordance with me right away. I am not knowledgeable enough to know the Greek word for every English word in the Bible. But I do have google. First, we have to start...

Let me start that I don't subscribe to the rapture theory as almost everyone who does has explained it to me. However, I do believe that within my lifetime "it" is going to happen. The prophecies that are in the Bible concerning "the end times" is going to at least start. I think perhaps...

This is what you replied to me and I agree. It does have to do with God's method, which by your latter posts is different from yours. You want to include Abel and Cain (as a sidenote, i understand where ptomw is coming from in regards to Cain), but God didn't count them because neither of them...

The answer may lie in gen 4:25 and Luke 3:37-38. Gen 4:25 And Adam knew his wife again; and she bare a son, and called his name Seth: For God, said she, hath appointed me another seed instead of Abel.... Luke 3:37 lists Enoch in the geneology as the 7th. Tell me what is missing in verse 38...

Marymog wrote: It seems to me you are saying that Jesus was the earthly head (leader) of The Church when he was alive and after his death there was no leader of The Church and there never will be? This is what Scott replied, "yes" to. I disagree seeing as how Eph 1 says that Jesus was given...

Read the parable. Read my comments on the parable. He that showed mercy was the neighbor. Not the others. Never once did I make mercy conditional upon my judgment. That is the third time you have misquoted me. That's it. You are done. I will no longer respond to you on this topic.

Did you see a link on your profile page called, "my content" or "your content"? Thats where I find my posts.

At no point did I place conditions on mercy nor did I relate that was depending on whether they meet our values. I related that Jesus's mercy had its limits when he was dealing with the Pharisees.
