    What is the one true Church?

    And Christ said, You can catch a taxi to the airport. Using modern words and inserting them into ancient time periods is misleading. So what is your point?

    What is the one true Church?

    Did not say they weren't. At the Council of Chalcedon, in 451 A.D., Coptic Christians split from the Roman Catholic Church. Rome and Constantinople accused the Coptic Church of being "monophysite," or teaching only one nature of Christ. But they buried the hatchet.

    What is the one true Church?

    Would any reliable source be good enough for you? The Pope has already apologized for a lot of this.....I guess he is not a reliable source. LOL But not before the Catholic Church existed and it has not always been in agreement. Wrong again! We have been talking about the Catholic Church's...

    What is the one true Church?

    He bestowed it upon His "Church" not the Catholic Church. Where is His Church now? The Coptic Church predates the Catholic Church by around 250 years. "Man-made Church" that is an interesting term. We would not be having this conversation if Christ endorsed any Church by name. Ergo the title of...

    What is the one true Church?

    There is no Popes until the English language came out. Never said that the Apostles had no authority. You know when you are winning a debate when your opponent keep mis-representing you. And yes the Church went south....power hungry and murderous. No it did not impose truth. We can go over...

    What is the one true Church?

    Did not say he was a lone ranger.....I said, he was the leader of the Gentile ministry and the Bible lists all those that work with him. The account of Jesus's post-resurrection appearance to Paul is given in detail three times in the Book of Acts and is repeatedly alluded to by Paul himself in...

    What is the one true Church?

    Churches have authority.....the power of their authority comes from Christ, not a man. Their authority and mission is to preach the Gospel and minister to Christians....not to rule over them. Salvation is through Christ, not the Catholic Church and the Catholic Church has no authority over...

    What is the one true Church?

    Well Peter was great and a favorite of many, especially those that are not that familiar with the scriptures. We do not see Apostles and disciples travelling to meet him to have him make a decision on things. We do not see him sending edicts to the churches. He was a minimal writer. But he did...

    Be careful with hate.

    What is the one true Church?

    Speculating is ok in a limited understanding. Father in another context, I will go with that. Actually what was Christ thinking of is hard to say......be perfect as your heavenly Father.....hate your father and mother....Christ said it and that is good enough, it is one of those things you can...

    What is the one true Church?

    Adding words to the scriptures....LOL

    What is the one true Church?

    My erroneous teachings......LOL....How old do you think I am! I did not write the Bible. The way I perform the Bread and blood ritual is pretty much the way Christ performed it.....so erroneous? LOL You are funny......No little white Hosts in the biblical era. The Church comes up with all sorts...

    What is the one true Church?

    Look at the opening statement in the post, the term can be erroneous. But there are some characteristics that are similar to the modern cults we have seen. The difference being that the man they were fixated on was alive recently. But the concept is still there, it is destructive. The focus of...

    Yep a lot of their money goes to paying off court fees and settlements.

    What is the one true Church?

    The fact that you think your manners are just fine, is a big problem. You shame the Catholic Church and if anyone thought that you are an example of the character of Catholics in general, it is understandable that people would think poorly of the Catholic Church. But you are not an example of...

    What is the one true Church?

    If you get into theology you will learn that certain terms are erroneous, for example cult or Gnostic. Essentially in use they mean we do not like your religion, but there are specifics that define actual cults. The definition I gave you was from the Webster's dictionary, just simple, but it...

    What is the one true Church?

    I said, Paul wrote or influenced most of the New Testament. Paul did not write Luke or Acts, but Luke was a disciple of Paul. Should I apologize because the Truth is shocking....nope.

    What is the one true Church?

    You are just like everyone else....you have lived your life believing in false beliefs. As I said, we all have to deal with false beliefs. But if we have no manners it means that we have not learned anything from Christ. If anyone re-writes history it is the Catholic Church....There was a...

    What is the one true Church?

    I love Miriam and I have seen her twice, maybe three times. We all deal with false beliefs.....it is your lack of manners that over shadows anything you say. As a life long theologian I love Christians and I fellowship with the Baptists, the Lutherans, the Pentecosts, the Catholics, the Glad...

    What is the one true Church?

    Muslims do not worship Christ.
