Translation: "I know you are but what am I?"

Yeah, just like Donald Trump's tweets have nothing to do with his fitness to rule.

The Barna Research Group estimates that roughly 5% of any denomination are actually and conscientiously devout. I'm not against any person. I am vehemently opposed to any deception that bars the way to Christ, in Spirit and in truth.

Thank you. Unless I'm merely mistaken, which would make you an accuser of the brethren, an activity born of the spirit of the adversary of souls (Revelation 12:10). I forgive you, of course, because I know that you know not what you do.

There are varying degrees of responsibility. We love to fool ourselves, but God sees things as they really are. But if the watchman sees the sword coming and does not blow the trumpet, and the people are not warned, and the sword comes and takes any person from among them, he is taken away in...

And your imagination borders on hallucination.

@Ronald David Bruno BTW, if I haven't made it clear, I don't do creeds or labeled Theologies. I'm a Bible guy. My denomination has and subscribes to no declared creed.

Paul's teaching doesn't suggest dualism. He was often addressing Hellenists in his epistles, so he used expressions that were familiar to them. Perhaps it wasn't me who didn't get it. No, that would be impossible, wouldn't it? After all, RC Sproul taught it, so it must be true, right? (As long...

This is a lie and you know it. Practically no one in true Protestantism believes this. Some of my most valued and devout friends are Godly Catholics. It's the accuser of the brethren that points the finger at people. Calling a belief system to account is labeled "offense." It's as old a game as...

No, that's a Catholic belief. People are influenced by each other, though. That's hardly arguable. Why would anyone be interested in what 99.999% of all Christians believe? When it comes to matters of faith, the majority have always been wrong. Out of roughly 2 million Hebrews, only 2 made it...

Thanks for sharing. Over the last 30 years or so, I've read everything of Spurgeon's I could get my hands on. Great man of God. You're right, though. Too advanced for me. Still sounds like Hellenism. No different than any of the other pagan influences embedded into evangelical mainstream...

More of that "love." Good stuff. Can't get enough. The spirit which actuates you is evident.

I love the "attack" accusations. And I would never say a "Pure Grace Gospel" Christian should be thrown out of Christian sites, or call them "springboards." That's the difference between the "lovers" and the "lawyers."

This is basically the "other 9" argument and it means that the law and the prophets don't hang from the 2 great commandments as Christ said--they've fallen off.

The term infallibility was rarely mentioned in the early and medieval church. Critics of the doctrine have pointed to various occasions in the history of the church when popes are said to have taught heretical doctrines, the most notable case being that of Honorius I (625–638), who was condemned...

Posts 28 & 39 don't count.

Do folks actually believe there is no distinction between the laws that foreshadowed Christ and the ten commandments? Why else would the apostle Paul use an obscure term like "handwriting of ordinances" in Colossians 2:14? Just read any Christian literature produced before 1950 and it's as plain...

Spinning papal double-talk for 17 years, right? Fine job. There is a difference between anti-catholic bigots and true Protestants, you know. Protest means "in favor of testing." What's wrong with that? Jesuits, on the other hand...

Straw man--I never suggested that the entire church is heretical. Be sensible. The Catholic clergy says it cannot err. I assume that means at all. And yet it has admitted to error. That's confusion--Babylon; Tower of Babel.

Yes--the traditions taught in the Bible.
