No silly, the Church started at Pentecost. You are not in the church that is pre-remission of sins. The church is without spot or wrinkle via Acts 2:38. You need Acts 2:38 too.

Vatican City, a city-state surrounded by Rome, Italy, is the headquarters of the Roman Catholic Church. It's home to the Pope and a trove of iconic art and architecture. Its Vatican Museums house ancient Roman sculptures such as the famed “Laocoön and His Sons” as well as Renaissance frescoes in...

No, your description of the "church" is a sin guilty(unremitted), non powered, pre- Pentecost Church. Just like the modern RCC today. This is why modernists deny the church beginning at Pentecost.

You just debunked Col 2:9.

....as the man continues on a quest to "decipher" the Greek copies himself.

Great, so, do you think that every thing that God consists of is "encapsulated" inside Jesus' omnipresent body or only God's particular qualities are inside Jesus man sized body?

When you see Jesus, you see the Father. When you see the local Catholic Church, you see the Pope.

Again, it all started in Acts 2:38, not a second before. Show me a verse with the Apostles implementing remission of sins prior to the Acts 2:38 administration of water baptism in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins. You can't? Okay, so now you understand the words of Jesus...

Sorry, the Pope is your holy see. He sits in the throne at the Vatican. The Vatican is in Rome. You can run, but you can't hide. You belong to the Roman Catholic Church.

Remission of sins was first worded by the Apostle Peter in Jerusalem right here... 38 Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. And now you have just found the...

....beginning at Jerusalem.... 47 And that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name among all nations, beginning at Jerusalem. Acts 1... 4 And, being assembled together with them, commanded them that they should not depart from Jerusalem, but wait for the promise of...

...Of Rome.

....which is the Roman Catholic Church.

The command implied to go to Jerusalem in the near future to get power(Holy Ghost). Remission of sins were to coincide there too.

...as he licks his chops in the bookstore over the latest new and improved version.

You must directly answer the question. How does an omnipresent God fit in a non omnipresent body? Is Col 2:9 a metaphor?

Luke 24 47 And that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name among all nations, beginning at Jerusalem. 48 And ye are witnesses of these things. 49 And, behold, I send the promise of my Father upon you: but tarry ye in the city of Jerusalem, until ye be endued with power...

The Law is not only five books, but the entire O.T. With that said, we are not just free from the 5 books, but the entirety of the 39 books. The 5 book idea was not addressed as "the Law" per the 1st century teachings, but came later on. Malachi, Isaiah, Psalms etc are all "the Law".

What is the difference between a Roman Catholic and a California Catholic? Please be specific.

I see. So, if I learn a code to a modern foreign language I am automatically qualified to translate 2000 year old Greek.
