I noticed this also. And I have previously pointed out the context of that law which was changed to the above writer,Farouk. It surprised me that he has chosen to continue with this line of reasoning having already been appraised of the truth of the matter.

What? Isn't what I have written precisely that which you said yourself? That the Goths were defeated in 538? Here is an excerpt from an Adventist author from late 19th century, and his account reflects precisely the wiki account you referenced. Belisarius entered Rome on December 10, 536...

By their fruits ye shall know them. One brief glance at the history of the Roman church readily informs one whether it be Christian or pagan. The details have been discussed on this forum and other forums repeatedly. You justify the pagan tenets of Catholic Canon law through tradition. Thus you...

I believe Goliath was descended from those.

I'm not so sure about that. Defiance certainly. But throughout scripture regarding the last days, there are two themes running side by side... Worship, and deception. "Take care that no man deceive you". Christians can be deceived. Can you not foresee a situation whereby a counterfeit form of...

A church was most certainly founded upon the apostles. That it was your church, the one now headquartered in Rome, is untenable.

I and sure you would have some evidence to support this right? Evidence from non Catholic historical sources?

And so you reveal your own deceit. Yes, the code was written earlier, but as far as Rome and the Pope was concerned, was as useless as a roll of toilet paper for having authority so long as the Goths were in military control of Rome. That changed in 538 when Belisarius, under orders from...

Up until Justinian, Rome and Alexandria had no doubts as to the Pope's authority with regards religious matters. Although elsewhere such authority was not accepted. But with Justinian's approval the de facto civil authority that the Pope's enjoyed after Constantine's abandonment of Rome and the...

Here is a very accurate post offering a bite of the current situation in new Zealand regarding environmental politics from the socialist lefty government there... The woman everyone seemingly loves to love, Jacinda Ardern. I have deleted the unacceptable language... So we have a coal powered...

Continued.... There is a twist to all this however, because Rome at that time was under an occupying power, and enemies to the Byzantine emperor, it was necessary that the city be liberated before the pontiff could exercise his new found authority. Legal authority is issues unless it could be...

KJV Revelation 13:2 2 And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard, and his feet were as the feet of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the dragon gave him his power, and his seat, and great authority. That dragon was the same dragon that stood before the woman to destroy the...

You are correct about Constantine. His involvement in the establishment of the Papacy had been overrated. The actual establishment of the Papacy didn't take place until 200 odd years later, and the emperor involved in that was Justinian.

Rechoired would answer you far better than I, but the way I see it is this. Jesus was born of a woman who inherited the same nature as David and Abraham and Adam. The Catholic alternative that creates a sinless Mary in order that Jesus could be born sinless is a far worse proposition. Think...

Sin nature, or fallen flesh nature with the possibility of sinning. There is a difference.

Rome are advocates for original sin. We are not. I would think that's a major difference.

The requirements of obedience to God are the same throughout all ages. The standard to which we are called to attain remains the same as it always was. The means by which we obey remains the same throughout all ages. The just shall live by faith. The so called old covenant was a one way promise...

Your entire life is governed by law. Gravity. Traffick laws. Dietary laws. ( Yes, if you don't eat, you die). Jesus spoke of some laws such as affecting all of humanity....it's more blessed to give than receive... Give, and it shall be given unto you... Government directives and laws... Local...

It the mark is literal, then it can be forced. Your can be held down while the mark is placed on you against your will. Which makes the entire concept of God's judgement upon those who received the mark an unjust farce.
