    The Church The Papacy Says You Should Join

    Jesus disagrees with you GG: And I tell you, you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my church, and the gates of Hades will not prevail against it. 19 I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven, and whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth...

    Are the Ecumenical Councils valid?

    Hi Grail Hunter, This is a very fascinating post that I am sure will garner many responses. Thank you!! I get the gist of what you are saying: Those are all "Catholic" councils. But wouldn't it be fair to say that all the councils up to the time of the Reformation were Church Councils since...

    Why Do You Go/or not go to Church?

    Hi Nancy, The NT Christians did not meet in "large groups" because the Christian community was not large at that time....Sooo it was IMPOSSIBLE to meet in large groups. As time progressed the community became larger hence the need for larger areas (such as large churches instead of homes)...

    Why Do You Go/or not go to Church?

    Hi QT, Be mindful that the NT Christians and the Apostolic Fathers (men who walked and talked with the Apostles) and Early Church Fathers disagree with you. A church has ministers who can forgive sins in the name of Jesus (John 20:21-23), healing rite for the dying that forgives the sins of...

    Why Do You Go/or not go to Church?

    That is a very good point Willie....:) Sooooo to fulfill the question of the OP by @Mayflower: Why Do You Go/or not go to that designated building? And an answer to my question would fulfill me: Why do several hundred people have to come together for it to be a church? Why not two or three...

    The Church The Papacy Says You Should Join

    Tisk tisk....You shouldn't PARTIALLY miss-quote and twist Scripture to bolster your argument. What Scripture ACTUALLY says is, Let every person be subject to the governing authorities; for there is no authority except from God, and those authorities that exist have been instituted by God...

    I can't find in Scripture OR the post where you allegedly quoted "Jesus saying it too". Would you please share that post or passage from Scripture with me? Patient Mary

    The Church The Papacy Says You Should Join

    You are saying two different things......There are sinners in the church but there aren't sinners in the church....Totally confusing.... You also said God has all authority but then quote Scripture that says the authorities that exist are appointed by God which is opposite of what you are...
