I think Catholics ought to take more notice of some of their own writers, sometimes they actually do come up with some wisdom. Thomas Aquinas for example had the following to say on the subject of authority and obedience... The order of authority derives from God, as the Apostle says [in Romans...

@Behold @CharismaticLady Genesis 3:15 reads, And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel. (AV) That portion of the text that reads in the AV, it shall bruise, in reference to the seed of the woman...

No, that's not what I said. They were there from the beginning, they separated from no-one. Rather, it was Rome that separated from them. My teaching comes from scripture and verifiable history. And the teachings of the reformers wasn't new. They were bringing back truths, and attempting to...

Do you fellas not believe scripture? You say the God of the NT is the real deal, much better than the one of the OT, so what happened to the OT version? Lost in translation?

Such is the classic Catholic view which mixes justification and sanctification. Heart circumcision is sanctification and it is the work of a life time. Baptism is a public declaration of the death of the 'old man' which is a decision voluntarily made by the Christian which is at conversion.

No, you did not. It was a diversion, and again, hardly subtle. You cannot defend the faults of one institution by pointing out the faults of another. Yes, some of the Protestant reformers persecuted one another. And yes, they also persecuted Catholics, particularly in Britain because they...

Just thought I would bump this... Always worth a reminder of who we are... And who Christ is... And the price He paid.

Not a very good diversion...too obvious. Read my post again. The Papal church disqualified itself from being the "pillar and ground for truth" when she apostatized and was married to another other than Christ. It is called spiritual adultery...joined to the kings of the earth. Jesus warned the...

When people say, "it's a finished work", I often wonder what it is they think is finished, and how the unfinished business that will continue until Christ comes affects us.

Sometimes I think we overthink our "calling". We study ourselves and take a poll and ask questions... What are my gifts... What are my talents... Thing is I see no evidence of any of that in scripture. I think if we are walking in faith... Being led of the spirit, we tend to just fall into our...

And despite all the above... ????????

Does it not seem strange to you that obedience in your mind is now optional, when disobedience cost the Son of God His life?

This is very concerning and more impeachable than anything Trump did. Biden kills pipelines at home but promotes them for the Taliban

Oh wow. How long have you got? I tell you what. I'll start a new thread. "Why the New Covenant is better than the old". I'm a Seventh Day Adventist. So there should be plenty of ammunition for people here in such a thread to prove the cult status of my church right?

Seeing you and I both claim the Bible as the foundation for faith and practice, I would expect you to be able to furnish me with some Bible texts which indicate God's removal of His holiness from the seventh day. After all, after 4000 years of a specific day being declared and stipulated as...

The Catholic Church, despite it's pretentious title, is not Catholic. The Papacy departed from any true relationship with Christ when she married the empire. Spiritual adultery when she abandoned Christ for politicians and they Kings of the world. The true Catholic faith resided in those who...

I don't blame you for discarding the law altogether. There's that pesky number 4 most people don't want to have anything to do with. Easier to obey the institution that replaced it with Sunday, rather than the God who instituted Sabbath at creation.

Don't blame you. Would be a heck of a waste of time searching, then coming up with nothing.

Death, of any kind, did not exist previous to sin.

Adam and Eve thought that God was going to kill them. "In the day you eat thereof, you shall surely die".
