My experience is exactly the opposite of what you pose here. Just sayin'. My church has no creed. Just a statement of detailed beliefs (all of which I firmly believe) that is not enforced except in some instances on the clergy. I was converted from my childhood faith at age 26. My understanding...

So you feel pretty safe in the absence of trumpets, do you? Are you being facetious or do you actually believe trumpets are required to be an offender? Odd that you can't tell an insult from a rebuke (from Scripture, btw). You say "if a person is asked..." Who asked you to reveal your virtues...

No, that would be the antigospel or apostasy by works.

With doubletalk and denial

It's like you didn't even read my post.

What I agree with is that the defenders of Catholicism on this forum have an absolutely inexhaustible amount of stamina and rhetoric, and I do not. I'm tired. But not too tired to say that apostolic succession is a myth. I've read the refutations and I didn't memorize them but I concur with...

Yeah, I get that a lot. But I've yet to see an explanation from the Bible as to How God multiplies Himself within Himself. Not that I'm saying He couldn't do it, but I don't see any indication of it in Scripture. It's a half-clever way to try to reconcile the Almighty with the constraints of...

The nature of God is sacred ground and people who think they understand the Godhead scare me. When people say things like "Jesus is the Father" they don't know exactly what they're saying. I have my theories and opinions but I live in a world where 1+1+1=1 is illogical. I believe it but I don't...

Are you suggesting that Jesus is not the LORD?

What do you think the testimony of creation and conscience is, exactly?

Man, that's just warped, JBF. What do you think happens to distant peoples who never hear the name of Jesus?

That's just good stuff, Billy. :)

I think he was pretty low when he started the thread, JBF.

That's it; kick him when he's down, JBF.

See?

Again, it's pretty much a law of psychology.

Try not to get bogged down. Since you feel that I've taken it out of context, what say I give another text supporting religious liberty (which also does a little damage to apostolic succession validity): Mark 9 38Now John answered Him, saying, “Teacher, we saw someone who does not follow us...

No one has ever tried to stop me for nearly 50 years. Unsure about reality?

You've got some nerve for a newb.

@theefaith It's not that I don't want you to know my manner of worship. It's just that I'm afraid of the long string of nonsense that might follow. :)
