    Timing of the abomination of desolation

    The Judean Christians unquestionably understood the signs of their times. Their actions confirmed their understanding. Had they disregarded Jesus' warnings, they would have perished. Thankfully, none of them was a dispensational futurist. There is Second Coming scripture farther down in the...

    Timing of the abomination of desolation

    The Judean Christians recognized that Jesus' warnings were applicable to them. They survived as a result.

    Timing of the abomination of desolation

    Matthew 24:15 When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand) Luke 21:20 And when ye shall see Jerusalem compassed with armies, then know that the desolation thereof is nigh. The AOD was...

    The Church Is The Israel Of God, Children Of The Promised Seed

    So if they'd only had 9,999 instructers, the verse would not apply to them?

    Timing of the abomination of desolation

    The Judean Christians heeded Jesus' warning, and fled, and survived. Should they have ignored Jesus' warning and been slaughtered instead?

    The Church Is The Israel Of God, Children Of The Promised Seed

    The Holy Spirit doesn't inspire wrong language. 1 Corinthians 4:15 For though ye have ten thousand instructers in Christ, yet have ye not many fathers: for in Christ Jesus I have begotten you through the gospel. Literal or figurative? 1 Corinthians 14:19 Yet in the church I had rather speak...

    The Church Is The Israel Of God, Children Of The Promised Seed

    If Justin Martyr was referring to a group other than amils who "think otherwise", I'd be interested to know who that group would be.

    The Church Is The Israel Of God, Children Of The Promised Seed

    "And Trypho to this replied, “I remarked to you sir, that you are very anxious to be safe in all respects, since you cling to the Scriptures. But tell me, do you really admit that this place, Jerusalem, shall be rebuilt; and do you expect your people to be gathered together, and made joyful with...

    The Church Is The Israel Of God, Children Of The Promised Seed

    Justin Martyr, 100 - 165, Dialogue with Trypho the Jew "I and many others are of this opinion [premillennialism], and [believe] that such will take place, as you assuredly are aware; but, on the other hand, I signified to you that many who belong to the pure and pious faith, and are true...

    The Church Is The Israel Of God, Children Of The Promised Seed

    Acts 24:15 – And have hope toward God, which they themselves also allow, that there shall be a resurrection of the dead, both of the just and unjust. Not of the just, followed by the unjust 1,000 years later. But of both the just and unjust in a resurrection, which is one resurrection. John...

    The Biblical Basis for Catholic Distinctives

    I don't need a copy. I'm confident in the accuracy of the many citations that exist. Since you aren't, you need a copy to prove or disprove that it claims of the pope that "thou art another God on earth". Why is your priest afraid to provide you with a copy? Could it be because it confirms...

    The Biblical Basis for Catholic Distinctives

    We know by reading Labbe and Cossart’s “History of the Councils.” Vol. XIV, col. 109. Surely your priest can provide you with a copy of it. How does the Church not know what is contained in Labbe and Cossart’s “History of the Councils” Vol. XIV, col. 109? Does it deny that Labbe and Cossart...

    The Biblical Basis for Catholic Distinctives

    You're the Catholic. About whom other than the pope would a Catholic say, "thou art another God on earth"? If it isn't accepted by the Church, why is there no record of the Church having renounced it?

    The Biblical Basis for Catholic Distinctives

    Ignore away. The historical records are unassailable. “For thou art the shepherd, thou art the physician, thou art the director, thou art the husbandman, finally thou art another God on earth.” Labbe and Cossart’s “History of the Councils.” Vol. XIV, col. 109

    The Biblical Basis for Catholic Distinctives

    It certainly taught back then that the pope is equal to God. What pope formally and publicly renounced that teaching? Name, date, and verbatim renunciation, please. If you're doubting: “...the appellation of God had been confirmed by Constantine on the Pope, who, being God, cannot be judged...

    The Biblical Basis for Catholic Distinctives

    “The pope is of so great dignity and so exalted that he is not a mere man (…) he is as it were God on earth, sole sovereign of the faithful of Christ, chief of kings, having plenitude of power.” -Lucius Ferraris, «Prompta Bibliotheca», 1763, Volume VI, ‘Papa II’, pp.25-29 Apostate?

    The Biblical Basis for Catholic Distinctives

    It's persecution. Robert Bellarmine: "almost infinite numbers were either burned or otherwise killed" by the Catholic Church [Disputationes de Controversiis Christianae Fidei Adversus Hujus Temporis Haereticos (Disputations about the Controversies of the Christian faith Against the Heretics of...
