Nope - I ALSO trust Scripture. I'm not a Sola Scripturist. I believe in the Teaching Authority of Christ's Church (Matt. 16:18-19, Matt. 18:15-18, Luke 10:16, John 16:12-15). You Reference Scripture For Teaching Authority? Sounds a bit hypocritical. What's hypocritical is a person who holds...

MOST, if not ALL of the ECF's were Catholic priests. Name ONE who wasn't. As for pedophiles, clean out your own backyards before pointing fingers . . . Evangelicals ‘worse’ than Catholics on sexual abuse Evangelical Sex Abuse Record ‘Worse’ Than Catholic, Says Billy Graham’s Grandson...

You dodged the qjuestion: HOW and I "rewriting" the Bible?

And therein lies the tragedy of Protestantism. Tens of thousands of disjointed and perpetually splintering sects that ALL teach different and competing doctrines because they splintered from another sect that wasn't their "cup of tea" Precisely the antithesis of the UNITY that Jesus fervently...

Cool - then maybe you can show me the verse that says "ONLY a believer's Baptism will do." I can't find that in my Bible . . . Cool - then maybe you cn show me the verse that gives us this "magical" age of accountability. AGAIN - I can't seem to find that in my Bible. Is it 5 years? 6? 8? 11...

HOW so, Einstein? Explain.

"REwrite"?? Who is "rewriting" anything? I'm discussing the language is was actually written in. If you can't deal with that - don't blame ME for your ignorance . . .

That's what I thought. When you can't refute the original language - your automatic switch goes to ad hominem attack. Come back when you're prepared to discuss Luke 1:28 intelligently . . .

Time for a Bible and Language lesson . . . First of all - I HATE to break this to you - but the Bible wasn't written in English. Nope - not even "King James" English. The NT was written in Koine Greek. The Greek word "Kecharitomene" that Luke used in his Gospel (v.1:28), is the perfect...

Yes. ALL who get saved get saved THOUGH His Church (Matt. 28:19), which is the FULLNESS of Christ (Eph. 1:22-23) and the pillar and foundation of Truth (1 Tim. 3:15). "'Nuff said" is right . . .

Luke 1:28. I've posted it several times already.

And once again - you seem to have fallen off the Honesty Wagon . . . READ my last post again, where I explicitly stated that we are NOT saved BY the Church. I know it's difficult for you to be honest - but pray for strength and TRY not to lie again . . .

Okay - you can direct your response to @Marymog . . . In my city, there are literally DOZENS of churches - Protestant and Catholic. So - WHICH of them has Christ's Authority, per Matt. 16:18 and 1 Tim. 3:15?? By the way - it's not about whether it's MY "cup of tea". It's about a SCRIPTURAL...

Not sure why you said what you did above in RED because I never made that claim. We're not saved BY His Church - we are saved THROUGH His Church. It's not an "earthly" or "human" Church - it is the Body of Christ and was built by HIM (Matt. 16:18) - and HE is the Head (Col. 1:18). I simply told...

Wrong. Romans 7:9 have absolutely NOTHING to do with "age of reason" - or age at ALL. It has to do with the LAW and sin. That's what the ENTIRE chapter is about.

The SAME thing the Church has taught for 2000 years - and that we read in Scripture: That we born again at Baptism when our sins are forgiven and we receive the gift of the Holy Spirit (John 3:5, Mark 16:16, Acts 2:38-39, 1 Pet. 3:21).

What's the "Roman" Catholic Church? Time for a little reality check . . . "Roman" simply refers to ONE of about TWENTY Liturgical Rites. There is also the Meklite Rite, Maronite, Byzantine, Coptic, etc. They are NOT the "Melkite Catholic Church" or the "Maronite Catholic Church". We ALL...

Then WHO makes the authoritative decision when there is an issue between fellow believes, per Matt. 18:15-18?? I'll wait right here for your answer . . .

Then what was your beef in the FIRST place? Gotta think - BEFORE you post . . .

No - because I'm NOT a Sola Scripturist like YOU. I believe in the Teaching Authority of Christ's Church (Matt. 16:18-19, Matt. 18:15-18, Luke 10:16, John 16:12-15). SO - BACK to the question: According to YOUR formula - if the ONLY way to be saved is by a "true heartful confession" - are ALL...
