What has this.... Got to do with this...?

Are those you are challenging claiming to be flawless?

Someone else's flaws will mitigate your own I suppose.

The occasional misdeeds or good deeds do not characterize what we are. It is the general steady direction and tendency toward righteousness, or toward evil, that defines us. Sanctification, the cleansing of all wickedness and sin and the full completion of character development takes a life...

Notice the lack of response from @Jim B ?

Some gay activist possibly demanded it, and the bank caved for fear of being labeled homophobic. You can get anything in life if the fear of refusing is greater than the fear of agreeing.

Throughout the gospels Jesus declared His dependence on the Father, and the Father's ultimate superior authority to which Jesus was surrendered, operating in His life. The very fact the "God sent", without any further evidence, is sufficient to show the Father as outranking His Son. It also...

And that my friend is the million dollar question. A question that has baffled the best scholarly intelligent minds for 1700 years. And one that I don't think anyone here is going to clear up either. The strange thing about that is that we demand everyone else give an adequate explanation for...

So that's offensive to be honest, particularly in light of the fact that neither you nor Cristo have explained why the Father abandoned His Son. Have neither of you thought this through? Have you considered what Jesus actually went through before coming up with this lame excuse for Christian...

If what you said is true, then every Christian denomination on the planet would be observing the Sabbath on the 7th day. But no, nearly all follow the Catholic tradition which overshadowed scripture.

I didn't say they were the same. I was talking about legal political and religious authority. It doesn't mean that the authority is exercised.

That's heartbreaking.

Yep. That's exactly what it's saying. So it seems you agree with me then... That the Catholic tradition of seeking God through other mediators... Such as the dead... Is a vain pastime, and they li ought to be seeking God through the law and the testimony instead right? So your problem is...???

The above was written in the late 19th century. The author would have an apoplectic fit if he were to be aware of what is taking place in US politics today.

THE principles exemplified in the Constitution of the United States as respects religion, were first announced by Jesus Christ, and were preached to the world by his apostles and the early Christians. For two hundred and fifty years they were opposed by the Roman empire. But at last that empire...

You would have me and others here to believe that we must surrender to the Catholic magisterium in order to accept unconditionally that they, and they only must tell us what is truth and what isn't. You understand what that means right? That you want us to place the magisterium above scripture...

Yep, Tetzel reincarnated. No thanks.

KJV Ephesians 6:10-13 10 Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might. 11 Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. 12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against...

That's about as disingenuous as Catholics claiming protestants died because of the state.

Lol.
