    The Biblical Basis for Catholic Distinctives

    W have a crucifix - not sijply a cross. We preach Christ crucified, which is a stubling block to many (1 Cor. 1:23).

    No - I simply expose lies and those who perpetuate them - while YOU appear to be defending them.

    The Biblical Basis for Catholic Distinctives

    The better question is: WHERE does the Bible state that everything in history must be contained in the Bible?? Chapter and Verse, please . . . The Church was called, “The Catholic Church” by the end of the FIRST century. We see this in the writings of FIRST century Bishop of Antioch, Ignatius...

    And you continue to LIE because I exposed you. Typical for a dishonest person get caught with their foot in their mouth by trying to lie their way out of it . . . YOUR claim below is a complete LIE because you cannot point me to the post where I allegedly said this. “Factually....you...

    The Biblical Basis for Catholic Distinctives

    Had YOU stuck to the doctrines of Christ and the Apostles – YOU would be in His Church. Unfortunately, you have decided to self-separate from Christ via His Body – the Church. Good luck with that as you continue to misinterpret your Bible by wrongly thinking it is your “SOLE” autthority . . ...

    Better yet - speak not about that which you do NOT know.

    The Biblical Basis for Catholic Distinctives

    I haven't sais ANY such thing. In fact - piuint me tpo the post where I said there were "tens of thousands of 'Christ's Churches'". You can't because you're LYING again. I said there were tens of thousands os disjointed and perpetually-splintering Protestant sects. You REALLY need to read...

    In other words - YOU simply don't believe in Jesus's promise that - Matt. 16:18. "... upon this rock I will build MY CHURCH and the gates of hrll will NOT prevail ahainst it." YOU actually berlirvr ythat men could UNDO what He guaranteed they coiuld NOT. What a pathetic lack of faith . . ...

    The Biblical Basis for Catholic Distinctives

    Once again - Jesus prayed fervently that HIDS Church remain as ONE - as He and the Father are ONE (John 17:20-23). That ONENESS is not manifwsted by the confusion of your tens of thousands of MAN-MADE and perpetually-splintering factions. The Catholic Church, on the other hand, is the Original...

    The Biblical Basis for Catholic Distinctives

    I don't know what a "nonce" is - buit I'm guessing you meant "Noun". The word, "Kecharitomene" is in the GREEK - NOT the Latin - so YOUR idiotic charge that it is a "Catholic invention" is about as IMPOTENT as a Nevada Boxing Commissioner . . . Here is a list ppf PROTESTANT or otherwise...

    The Biblical Basis for Catholic Distinctives

    If you are a "firm believer" in the Word of God - I suggest you STUDY it. As to the General Priesthood of the Jewish people - Exodus 19:6 and you shall be to me a kingdom of priests and a holy nation.’ These are the words that you shall speak to the people of Israel.” Isaiah 61:6 but you...

    The Biblical Basis for Catholic Distinctives

    Wrong? The Church IS - - ONE (John 17:20-23) - HOLY (Eph. 5:25) - CATHOLIC (Acts 9:31) - APOSTOLIC (Acts 1:12-26) Soooooo, instead of "LOL"-ing - maybe you should spend some time studying Scripture . . . No - it's not one of your tens of thousands of MAN-MADE and perpetually-splintering...

    The Biblical Basis for Catholic Distinctives

    WOW, are you really that dense? Time for another Bible and Linguistics lesson . . . That people in ithe Bible founs "FAVOR" with God id not the issue. Mary didn't simply find "FAVOR" - she was goiven the title of "Kecharitomene in Luke 1:28. As I educated you in my last post - this word us...

    The Biblical Basis for Catholic Distinctives

    ONE, Holy, Catholic and Apostolic. Not tens of thousands of disjointed and perpetually-splintering sects that ALL teach different doctrines based on the whims of their human founders. . .

    The Biblical Basis for Catholic Distinctives

    I don't know how many times I've had to explain this to you from the Bible - but here goes again . . . The Greek word that the Angel used to describe Mary in Luke 1:28 is "Kecharitomene". This word is defined as "completely, perfectly, and enduringly endowed with grace "- and is a perfect...

    The Biblical Basis for Catholic Distinctives

    In the Old Testament, there were THREE levels of Priests: - The High Priest - The Levitical/Ministerial Priesthood - The rest of the people were a general priesthood of believers. In the New Testament, there are also THREE levels of Priests: - Jesus, our High Priest (1 Tim. 2:5, Heb. 7:22-25)...

    Such as?? WRONG. And Scripture itself PROVES you wrong . . . 2 Thess 2:15 "Stand firm and hold fast to the Traditions you were taught, whether by an ORAL STATEMENT or by a LETTER from us." The Holy Spirit, speaking through Paul is putting Sacered ORAL Tradition on par with Scripture...

    Corrent - theu ALL had the power to bind and loose. Wha's more - their offices were successive (Acts 1:20). ONLY Peter, however, was given the Keys to the Kingsdom of Heaven (Matt. 16:18). Correct - and your point is . . .?? WROING. "Pope" is simplt a variation of "Papa"", which means...

    The Biblical Basis for Catholic Distinctives

    LAST question first: We CAN and DO verify teachings with Scripture. Virtually EVEERY single teaching in the Catechism of the Catholic Church has footnotes with the Scripture verses that support it. HOWEVER – Scripture itself doesn’t support your false, 16th century invention of Sola...

    Thank you for pretty much PROVING my pont. The fact that you completely ignored every Scriptural point I made abioyt Peter tells me that you have NO valis response. As for qhwther or not I believe that Peter was a superior steward than the others - I will leave you with this: Jesus told His...
