Actually - that's not true Einsten. Acts 9:31 talks about how the Early Church grew throughout the region. The language used here describes the Catholic Church: “Then the church throughout Judea, Galilee, and Samaria experienced peace and thus was strengthened. Living in the fear of the Lord...

Do you ever actually R*E*A*D the posts and follow the conversation? I didn't think so . . .

And what does YOUR comment have to do with what I wrote?? I was responding to H.Richard, who said: "It is because rituals will not save anyone." We weren't talking about worship. We were talking about rituals.

Ummmmm, Jesus, who is GOD Himself ordained the ritual of the Lord's Supper - the Eucharist (Matt. 26:26-28, Luke 22:19-20). Why you would say that rituals are strictly "man-made" is beyond me. A Wedding ceremony is a ritual in which God IS present. Why you would say that He is NOT is beyond me...

Hi VictoryinJesus - First off - I don't defend man "rather than" God. I defend God's Authority that he transferred to His Church (Matt. 16:18-19, Matt. 18:15-18, Luke 10:16, John 16:12-15, John 20:21-23). Christ's Church is his Body - not some "separate" fleshly entity. He is so radically...

You can deny and hide behind Hans Kung all you want - but I destroyed his position in post #395 by quoting Acts 9:31. As for your question - I already told you: Nowhere. And NOWHERE is the Catholic Church called "The Roman Church" in Scripture . . .

Look - as long as you condemn my posts without condemning the lies, myths and falsehoods that I am responding to - then your position is nothing but a giant hypocrisy. Sorry if the truth hurts. This has nothing do to with having a penchant for creating problems where "none" exist. ANY time...

Absolutely - but that doesn't mean that He created evil.

Why do you keep dodging the issues?? You don't have the foggiest clue as to what the "RCC" is - yet you keep using this term. You state that the Church put "itself" between God and man - when the Church , the Body - IS man. You claim that the Church puts mandatory rituals to keep people in...

NOT according to the Bible . . . Mark 16:16 Whoever believes and is BAPTIZED will be saved, but whoever does not believe will be condemned. John 3:5 Jesus answered, “Amen, amen, I say to you, no one can enter the kingdom of God without being born of water and Spirit. 1 Pet. 3:19-21 In it (the...

The ONLY thing "dishonest" on this thread so far is YOUR insistence that God creates evil. It's dishonest and really, really ignorant . . .

Hans Kung is notorious for being a left-wing, progressive "Catholic". After Vatican II, he moved further and further to the left until he was considered a dissident. He is not even officially allowed to teach Catholic theology because of his rejection of Catholic doctrine. I obliterated the...

Nope - I haven't proven Scripture "wrong". Nobody can because its the truth. I've only prove your perversion of it wrong . . .

The Church didn't engage in killing people because they believed "differently". Besides - that's NOT what Jesus was referring to. As for YOU - I couldn't care less what you believe. I'm only here to expose lies and falsehoods against the Catholic Church - NOT to police what you believe in...

Seems even funnier to me that you would refer to Baptism, Communion and Marriage as "junk" . . .

The wedding ceremony is a ritual. The vows, the exchanging of rings, etc. A funeral is a ritual - and it only happens once . . . And, for MOST people, dating is a repetitive thing ;) . . .

There is absolutely a Church in Corinth today - so according to YOUR logic, they should be referred to as "Corinthian-ists" and NOT Christian or Catholic. As for your ridiculous excerpt from Hans Kung - I warned you not to take him seriously, but you didn't listen. Acts 9:31 talks about how...

Do you understand what Jesus was condemning here - are do you simply have an ax to grid against the Catholic Church? The reason I ask is because of your complete obliviousness to the fact that there are MANY Churches with hierarchy in this world. What exactly is it about the Catholic Church...

Rituals are part of the human experience. BAPTISM is a ritual. The Lord's Supper (Communion) is a ritual. Proposing marriage is a ritual. Marrying your spouse is a ritual. Dating is a ritual. Going grocery shopping is a ritual. Eating dinner at the same time every night is a ritual. Going to...

An apparently, He hasn't given YOU any yet . . . Your position all along is that God creates evil - and I've proven you wrong both linguistically and contextually. In other words, my Scripturally-bankrupt friend - the evidence against your position is right there in the verse but you just don't...
