@pia Remember here the following words penned by Jeremiah: "O LORD, I know that the way of man is not in himself: it is not in man that walketh to direct his steps." Jerem 10"23 Men cannot do it on their own, but even many who have declared themselves for Christ keep trying it being led by...

"Do we begin again to commend ourselves? or need we, as some others, epistles of commendation to you, or letters of commendation from you? Ye are our epistle written in our hearts, known and read of all men:" II Cor 3:1-2 "If any man speak, let him speak as the oracles of God; if any man...

"For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is written, He taketh the wise in their own craftiness. And again, The Lord knoweth the thoughts of the wise, that they are vain." I Cor 3:19-20

Actually we were all born dead the first time around. But lot of people do believe the lie of a snake.

In other words to say something is objective depends upon who is defining the word. Obviously since truth is absolute, it cannot absolutely be considered objective.

The way you expressed it indicated to me that you believed there were two churches. You should be careful with your wording. We would not want any one to go away from here confused. You haven't posted a verse yet that plainly showed it to me. If you already knew Peter's primacy was a man...

What pray tell does it mean to marinate a statement in moral relativism? Does being able to say it or write it edify anyone in the things of God? Presuming that the following definition is a good one: "Objective information or analysis is fact-based, measurable and observable." Who then can...

Just keep looking up to Him!

@DicipleofJesus Give God the glory!

That is interesting take on our friend's position. God would like for people to subject themselves to Him, but people push hard to take hold of or retain top positions in His kingdom without considering what Jesus said to John and James who wanted to sit on his right and on his left. Never mind...

"So the last shall be first, and the first last: for many be called, but few chosen." Matt 20:16 So then Peter took it upon himself many times to be the first to speak rather than the last. Therefore again... "So the last shall be first, and the first last: for many be called, but few...

No, many others have walked on water, but then what is the water? The scripture is surely speaking of something besides H2O? He was also perhaps the first to be called satan by Jesus. And then Joseph, Moses, David, Solomon, Elijah along with a long lists of others received no special...

And the apostle Paul is mentioned 163 times in the same part of scripture if we do not include the times he is called Saul. But while we are counting Jesus is mentioned 983 times in the part of scripture. But, why are we concerned about Peter or Paul or any of the apostles at all: "Neither is...

Two Churches? That is likely what comes from using man's logic. What is heaven and what is earth? Who is ruling what? No I lifted up the name of Jesus for there is no other name under heaven whereby we may be saved, is there? I never set up any man against Jesus. I am afraid that was the doing...

I corrected the source on my input, but I wonder how often things like that happen around here. It could cause unnecessary trouble.

Truth is not objective. Truth is Jesus according to scripture. The difficulty is that until a person begins to know Jesus, he cannot understand what Jesus and therefore what truth is. "Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me." John...

For the most part non-Catholic believers are not challenging it. They are simply ignoring it or they may even be unaware that someone believes it. Is this a bad thing, if they are holding onto Jesus? Is not he the Alpha and the Omega rather than Peter or any other apostle or disciple or Christian?

@Angelina I am praying for your friend, Nathan L.

Twinc you should know better than what you are suggesting. Only state schools already teach a lot of garbage with regard to God's truth according to both Catholics and Protestants who really care about God. If the little bit of good that does creep into state school curriculums were to be...

Give God the glory my friend for He alone is always worthy!
