    What is the one true Church?

    Good on you, and I agree with you... The hysteria surrounding climate change is not pantheism. But Pope Francis' response to it as expressed in his encyclical Laudato Si, could be considered pantheism. Quote...VI. SACRAMENTAL SIGNS AND THE CELEBRATION OF REST 233. The universe unfolds in God...

    Time is up!! Jesus is returning and rapture (catching up) time is here!!

    The so called catching up event cannot be separated from the resurrection which takes place at the same time: the time of Jesus' second coming. KJV Daniel 12:1-3 1 And at that time shall Michael stand up, the great prince which standeth for the children of thy people: and there shall be a time...

    What is the one true Church?

    Pantheism. God in nature, rather than the God of nature. Environmentalism? No. Climate change...a fraudulent theory being used as a vehicle for squirreling Catholic doctrine into government legislation... Sunday laws... Which our prophet, the one you despise and reject, spoke of clearly 140...

    What is the one true Church?

    As I said to BoL, I'm not interested in nit picking over wedding ceremonies, rings, and traditions that the Bible does not specifically condemn. But as I also pointed out, there are some pagan... Read occult, superstition, gentile, spiritualism, idolatry, whatever... Practices bring promoted...

    Time is up!! Jesus is returning and rapture (catching up) time is here!!

    Of course it is, and I did answer. I said I believe in scripture. I'm confused why you would think I would remove 1 Thess. from scripture?

    Time is up!! Jesus is returning and rapture (catching up) time is here!!

    I believe in scripture. Not in make believe. Scripture informs us of the resurrection, at which time those remaining alive are changed, "in the blink of an eye". All the scriptures that deal with the second coming speak of that one singular event... The resurrection and the deliverance of God's...

    Time is up!! Jesus is returning and rapture (catching up) time is here!!

    The real event wherein I desire to be left behind, and by no means be taken first is here... KJV Matthew 13:30 30 Let both grow together until the harvest: and in the time of harvest I will say to the reapers, Gather ye together first the tares, and bind them in bundles to burn them: but gather...

    Time is up!! Jesus is returning and rapture (catching up) time is here!!

    That's a different event than the imaginary one the OP is referring to. The one you have reference to above is real. But even that I would prefer to be left behind, as I will explain below...

    What is the one true Church?

    Lol. You are still treating me like an idiot. You must think me a raving legalist if you believe I'm concerned over Christmas trees, wedding rings, and calendars. You completely ignore what did concern me, I spelt it out very clearly, with attached quotes and references. Pantheism is alive and...

    What is the one true Church?

    Mmm. By this I would imagine you mean Catholic Church... Pentecostal, Adventist, Presbyterian, Anglican, all of more modern times, and the Celtic, Syrian, Waldensian, Albigensian, Assyrian, Ethiopian churches of more ancient times who your church identifies as heretics, they have all fallen...

    What is the one true Church?

    That's contrary to the council of Trent. The Reformers had constantly charged that the Catholic Church had apostatized from the truth as contained in the written word. "The written word," "The Bible and the Bible only," "Thus saith the Lord," these were their constant watchwords; and "The...

    What is the one true Church?

    My point exactly, but not Christianity, rather catholicism. Christianity requires pagan occult practices to be cast aside and abandoned, and repented of. Catholicism baptizes them and calls them by another name, thus accepting and melding them with Catholic teaching. Your statement, is what I'm...

    Understanding Fascism

    Precisely. Which is what many people miss when looking for the markers of fascism in today's society. Fascism is alive and well in America, and the future of fascism is dependant upon a partnership between corporate America and government. Other markers of fascism in America go back a long...

    What is the one true Church?

    You disagree that traditions exalted above God's word is a sign of apostasy? Like Sunday sacredness for example...a tradition not based on God's word and exalted above sacred scripture. I know that there is disagreement between us concerning the beginnings of the Catholic Church as an...

    What is the one true Church?

    I have no argument with you on that count. Churches as institutions don't have to answer to God for the policies set within them by corrupt sinful power hungry self exalting individuals. Individuals have to answer to God for their own sin... Protestant, Catholic, Islamist, Hindu, pagan and...

    What is the one true Church?

    Seems to me there is no difference between the old and new. Repentance, obedience. And the gospel was first presented to Adam and Eve, along with a blood sacrifice, pointing forward to a Savior to come. The entire OT sanctuary service was the gospel in pictorial form, a type of the true yet to...

    What is the one true Church?

    @BreadOfLife PS... Jesus isn't only the Lord of the Sabbath... He is supposed to be your Lord as well, and not the church.
