    If You Believe Your Denomination Is...

    I'm certainly becoming more mindful of how close we need to be in these current times. Everything else we trusted in, institutions, traditions, health care, governments, are falling apart at the seems and very rapidly there is an increasingly obvious void that needs to be filled. That void can...

    If You Believe Your Denomination Is...

    Yet they are sheep. And they are His sheep. Where were they? Who were they?

    Where does the Bible say...

    If I choose not to steal, am I fulfilling the law?

    If You Believe Your Denomination Is...

    If we all at union with Christ, then are we not already then in union with one another? The links that unite us may not be visible, yet surely they are there. The question is, are we in union with the true Christ or one of our own imagining? Are we in union with Christ, or have we interposed an...

    If You Believe Your Denomination Is...

    Jesus said...And other sheep I have, which are not of this fold: them also I must bring, and they shall hear my voice; and there shall be one fold, and one shepherd. He was speaking to the Pharisees, with the disciples present. He is speaking in present tense. He wasn't referring to a future...

    Where does the Bible say...

    The Sabbath could not have been changed after Calvary. Paul correctly stated in his letter to the Hebrews that a testament cannot be changed after the death of the testator. If the Sabbath that was practiced and was such an integral component of the old covenant needed to be changed at all, it...

    Where does the Bible say...

    WOW. You've done it Mary. Well done. You have admitted and finally agreed with your own church that no where in scripture is there any text to support any change in the Sabbath. You have admitted also that whatever change came, took place after the death of the last apostle. And that change was...

    Mask Control: Prove COVID-19 exists...I dare you!

    Order Out Of Chaos Or In Old Latin "Ordo Ab Chao" Throughout recent history there had been a global political manifesto being implemented in order to bring about a desired result. It is called the Hegelian Dialectic. The practice is based on creating friction.. Whether it be war.. Politics...

    Why do you reject authority?

    Because BoL has used the same tactic since I've known him, I would imagine that he hasn't read the book recently released by the Pope on how to engage with non Catholics in order to foster unity. I haven't read the book myself but surely it doesn't recommend belligerence and demeaning ad hominem...

    Why do you reject authority?

    That's absolutely fascinating. Popes don't make stuff up. They define what already exists. Thank you for that erudite explanation to what I was saying all along. That PiusIX wasn't making stuff up, but in his syllabus of errors which was annexed to his encyclical Quanta Qura was agreeing with...

    do you KNOW the Lord

    In the very context of the question posited on this thread, Jesus, in two different parables, described precisely the basis for judging between those who had been saved by grace, and those who were not saved. It is Jesus Himself to in the judgement expects that those who have received God's...

    Why do you reject authority?

    Correct. But it is found in the syllabus of errors written and prepared by the same author and annexed to the encyclical, thus giving it the same authority and reflecting the thoughts of the author. Who's "we"?

    do you KNOW the Lord

    No. You are being foolish for creating issues where there are none. I have never suggested, that works save anyone. Start again.

    Why do you reject authority?

    Lol. As if you would seek to convince readers that SDA sites pull this stuff out of thin air. You know perfectly well that this wasn't invented by the SDA Church, and that it is a direct quote. I could pull the Quanta Qura encyclical from all over the place and it would say the same thing. As...

    Why do you reject authority?

    Yet encyclicals, binding or not, are a reflection of Catholic opinion, particularly when it's repeated by Catholic media decades later. We are talking about general Catholic incompatibility with the spirit of the constitution. That is religious liberty. Religious liberty is not a Catholic...

    Why do you reject authority?

    And the manner in which you share your love to those here who disagree with your theology is a credit to your organisation I'm sure. But all that isn't what the discussion is all about is it. It's about the Catholic Church understanding and practise of religious liberty. Your asinine remark...

    This Is Barbaric

    That's satanic.

    This Is Barbaric

    Have very fond memories of cows. Some can be very affectionate. Used to sit down in the middle of the paddock and stay quietly singing. Would be surrounded in no time. Bulls however didn't need too much provocation to show off their strength... Typical males. Even the bull calves enjoyed...

    do you KNOW the Lord

    You need to read a little more of the Bible you are so fond of using to uphold your ideas. KJV Romans 2:5-11 5 But after thy hardness and impenitent heart treasurest up unto thyself wrath against the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of God; 6 Who will render to every man...

    Go, And Sin No More?

    There are rich lessons to be learned from the OT sanctuary service. By M L Andreason The flour used in the meal offerings was not to be offered dry; it was to be mingled with oil, or anointed with oil. (Leviticus 2:4,5) The oil is the Spirit of God. Only as a life is sanctified by the Spirit...
