WRONG again. Those who said that new converts needed to be circumcised were the Judaizers (Acts 15:1) because they were trying to impose the ceremonial aspects of the Law onto Gentiles - which the Apostles said they SHOULDN'T. There were NOT 2 "circumcision camps" at the Council.

WRONG. Jesus said the following to Nicodemus: John 3:140-16 Just as Moses lifted up the snake in the wilderness, so the Son of Man must be lifted up, that EVERYONE who believes may have eternal life in him. For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that WHOEVER believes in...

WRONG. The reason for the Council of Jerusalem was to address the error of JUDAIZERS like yourself. Paul and Barnabas had encountered them in Antioch. These were the Jewish Christians that were wrongly telling new gentile converts that they needed to adhere to the Mosaic Law in order to be a...

The Holy Spirit pretty much SLAM DUNKS your objections through the pen of Paul: Col. 2:13-17 And you, who were dead in your trespasses and the uncircumcision of your flesh, God made alive together with him, having forgiven us all our trespasses, by canceling the record of debt that stood...

Yup. The Catholic Church is the LARGEST charitable organization in the WORLD. - Every day, the Catholic Church feeds, clothes, shelters and educates more people than ANY organization on the planet. - Charities run by the Church include 5,305 hospitals including 1694 in the Americas and 1,150 in...

Yes, I've heard your mantra - many times now . . .

Ummmmm are YOU telling me that you can't discern between allegorical language and literal language?? What is written here about "three choirs" singing in unison - One from Heaven, One from Rome and One from Ireland is ALLEGORICAL. There were no "choirs from Heaven or Rome or Ireland there when...

Sorry – but this is inaccurate. You have presented the usual homogenized Protestant version of Tyndale’s “ordeal” – but have completely ignored the historical facts. It is a fact of history that many English versions of the Scriptures existed before Wycliff -let alone Tyndale. They were...

Once again - either you refuse to READ the posts - or you simply enjoy wallowing in your lies. The Church did not kill anybody. Heretics were put to death by state governments and kingdoms. This is a fact of history. This has already been explained by me and others here. When you want to...

Ummmm, I believe I ALREADY explained to you why amateur translations of the Bible were discouraged - and eventually forbidden. They were causing schisms because of the heresies they were creating by badly translating the Scriptures. As for the Latin Mass and those who wanted to keep it as the...

As I stated before - men like Tyndale weren't executed for translating the Bible. There were ALREADY versions translated into other languages. They were executed for wrongly translating the bible into heretical versions.

It strikes me as BOTH hilarious and sad that you are so ignorant of history. You speak of the "mass publication" of the bible in English as if the Church had been "holding back" for some reason. Did it ever occur to you that before 1450 - ALL Bibles were handwritten and took YEARS to complete...

That's what I thought . . .

No surprise . . .

Well - you just claimed that you don't lie - then you follow it up with another LIE. The idea that you wouldn't have the Bible in English if not for Protestantism is nonsense. There were MANY books of the Bible translated into English BEFORE the KJV. The Church was never against translating...

First of all - your argument about "Church ad state" is complete nonsense. This is a thing of the PAST. the Church doesn't exercise any power over state governments and kingdoms. As for anti-Catholic "hatred" - this is the ONLY motivation I can discern from those who have to lie and make up...

No kidding. Matt. 16:18 is a knockout punch for those, like YOU who say that Church is a "man-made" institution.

I haven't expressed any "hatred" of you at all. My entire line of discussion has been a defense of the truth. You ARE right that anything that detracts from Christ can become a source of idolatry. That is PRECISELY what the Catholic Church has taught for 2000 years. EVERYTHING that the...

Sooooo, of the tens of thousands of disjointed and perpetually-splintering Protestant sects - there are several that believe in the Real Presence. Did THEY "take the word of God and interpreting it as it is written" as YOU have? OR are they all wrong because they don't agree with YOUR...

WRONG. It absolutely matters what the Early Church did and HOW they passed along the faith of the Apostles. If it didn't matter - YOU wouldn't even have a Bible - the Canon of which was declared by the Early Church at the Council of Rome in 382 AD. Your rejection of the teachings of the Early...
