    Absolutely true. Such a pity that you can't see that.

    My point was concerning Sunday sacredness. A day formerly dedicated to the sun god, and borrowed by the church without any biblical l mandate for doing so. It was the Catholic Church council at Laodicea that formerly ratified and established that day as sacred to Christianity... Changing the 4th...

    That would be nice.

    Indeed. I agree with you. Christ gave His church authority, and the gifts of the Spirit. But not yours. Your church began well. It was apostolic. In the first century. But after Constantine made Christianity the state religion, and mixed his pagan beliefs with Christian beliefs, the church...

    Exactly... Thank you. And you recognize it as a symbol, which I agree with. A public symbolic act of a previously established voluntary decision on the part of the Christian to sacrifice self through Christ... To account himself as dead with Christ on the cross, and reckon himself raised with...

    It is the true meaning of Antichrist that had divided the Church, that is the original body of true believers, from Christ. It was your church that replaced Christ with vicarious filli dei. It was your church which replaced the intercession of Christ with that of Mary, and dead guys. It was...

    While you ignore what is actually going on in front of them.

    Adventism, that is hope in the seconds coming, began as aNT concept 40 days after the resurrection on the mount of olives... See Acts 1:11. Seventh Day Adventism began at the same time as all those disciples who witnessed that event were Sabbath keepers. So. 33AD... PALESTINE.

    You don't understand the meaning of baptism. It is indicative of burial. Sprinkling doesn't accomplish that. Read Romans 6.

    Any comparison of the above, a memorial, with this... Is rather a stretch. Nice try though.

    Afraid of God?

    "Nooo, I don't think so, not yet. I think God wants to hold me back from being all I can be. I think He wants to take away things that are for my good." Does that ring a bell with anyone? I ask because that is what I believed before I finally came to Jesus. I thought He would be restrictive. I...

    I agree with all the above, but you haven't explained how CC doctrine can crush the SDA. I'm intrigued. Also wondering who the Adventist is on this forum who you believe to be cosying up to the CC. Even more intrigued on that one. I know there are some leaders in our church who are involved in...

    Oh we get input alright, charges like "cult", unbiblical, and like the above from amigo, CC doctrine will crush the SDA...whatever that means. So there's input alright, it just isn't demonstrated, explained, or specified.

    No, what you have done is alter the focus of my objection. Ignatius may or may not have some doctrines correct, that's not the point. My principle objection is that he, as a very early leader in the Christian era, is already leading the church down a road to apostasy... Not by a whole raft of...

    Interesting observations there. When I criticize catholicism, I offer biblical, historical evidence. I would be happy to discuss your objections to adventism on another thread... We have had threads of that nature previously, but for some reason they don't seem to go anywhere... Non adventists...

    Objecting to a partial quote from Taken and then partially quoting me to twist the context is a tad hypocritical don't you think?

    Difference between Catholic and Protestant.

    And of course you are a linguist and anyone disagreeing with you is psychotic, arrogant, and ignorant. As I said. Very early there were heretics who removed Christ as being Head of the church and replaced Him with vicarious filli dei. Church authority replaced Christ's authority, and the church...

    In other words Brakelite, you are correct. I don't have a relationship with Jesus or His holy Spirit, I rely on fallible sinful man to lead me to heaven. Just keeping it real.
