To two different leadership roles....I do not agree....for two different ministries. For two different groups ..... agree.

What did Christ mean by that? The wording seems clear......so does the hate your father and mother thing....or Therefore you are to be perfect, as your heavenly Father is perfect.....we know that these two verses cannot mean what they appear to say because it does not follow through in the...

Close....πατήρ (patēr) This term was used long before the Pope was coined.....a term of endearment and respect. Pappas or Papas (Greek: Παππάς, Παπάς) is a Greek surname, which means "priest" I do not know of any Marian event that denies the papacy or endorses it. That is why I asked you. I...

Telling the truth is not demonizing the Catholic Church....and you do not have live in denial or live a fantasy to be Catholic. I worship with the Catholics and the Protestants. I do not refuse to accept the development of the papacy when it actually occurred. There is nothing wrong with the...

The story is more involved than that. God the Father's name is Yahweh and at one time His name or variances of it appeared in the Old Testament nearly 6000 times.....they removed them all and replaced His name with the words Lord or God. Then the J slam occurred and all the Y's were replaced...

Have no idea what you talking about.

I agree. The whole green thing is a new age religion....

Did not say the Bible is wrong. The Bible does not call Peter a leader. It would be simple enough if that were true. The Bible does not specifically call anybody a leader....it is in the storyline. If other Apostles were coming to him to make decisions....if he was sending out decrees. But then...

I understand that.....it just did not happen. Again I understand all that it just did not happen. As far as the anathema in the Christian commune, I think any of the Apostles could have done that. All I am asking you for is a scripture referring to him as a leader. Now if you are saying that...

Well you guys have covered a lot of topics. Can you tell me why you think the scriptures regarding Isaiah and his wife are about the Messiah?

You can call anyone in history Pope but which person was called Pope when they were alive. Why not Pope Moses....he had a closer connection to God than any Pope? And come to think about it, I have studied the Marian apparitions and miracles, do you know of a time she visited the Pope or...

LOL So you think that the only order of business at the first council of Nicaea was Arianism? So funny! Back before the ecumenical councils the Catholic Church did not exist as an organized religion. No one "Church" represented or had authority over the seven churches of Asia minor or the...

Correct but the Catholic Church could and did not start until after that. Before the ecumenical councils Christianity existed as an unorganized religion with various beliefs. I know your "proof" it is proof someone used the term, but no proof of an organized Church. That is incorrect. Totally...

You got stuff going on here. Christianity existed before the Edict of Milan.....the Church did not. Christianity existed before the Edict of Milan....but they were not in agreement. Christian congregations existed before the Edict of Milan but no church buildings. The Catholic Church had no...

No J's in the scriptures. But still freedom of Religion.....maybe you are part of one of those UFO religions where Christ is an alien time traveling UFO pilot that loaded up the saucer with bags of J's to take back in biblical times for them to use. But for the rest of us, we could not use J's...

Are we discussing the Trinity? Communal meal is a meal that includes the bread and wine ritual as Christ demonstrated with the Last Supper. Catholic Church above Christ? I do not recognize any ruling from the Catholic Church.....definitely nothing from the Vatican......As for you, the...

I am a theologian...I go to Catholic churches and I go to Protestant churches.....love them both. I am a Christian and I love Christians. As I said, I am big on the bread and wine ritual. I believe it is a miraculous event. They have debated what all goes on there, for centuries. They have...

Jesus is English but no one knows were it came from. No J's in the Old or New Testament. You probably study at a very shallow level. But even if you are using something like the Strong's you can look up names like Job, Jacob, Joshua, Joseph....you will find they are pronounced with a Y. The...

No it does not. Beyond the fact that there are no J's in the scriptures. So nothing in the scriptures can translate to Jesus. The word used for the Messiah in the scriptures is Greek for noble man.....it is not even a name it is a word. No one knows where the word Jesus came from. It just...

They burnt Joan of Arc at the stake for hearing voices. The Holy Ghost has been talking to people all along. Some of the Protestants had to start their own churches to get away from the successionists that thought the Holy Spirit went silent after the biblical era. There are both Catholic and...
