Apostolic Fathers Christian writers of the first and second centuries who are known, or are considered, to have had personal relations with some of the Apostles, or to have been so influenced by them that their writings may be held as echoes of genuine Apostolic teaching. Though restricted by...

According to Biblegateway, apostacy is ə pŏs’ tə sĭ (מְשׁוּבָה, H5412, apostasy; παραπίπτω, G4178, to fall away). The abandonment of one’s religion. This simplistic definition is, roughly, in agreement with every major encyclopedia on the plant, Christian or secular. It's like saying, "I am...

1) Monkeys have legs. 2) I have legs. 3) Therefore I am a monkey. I think you understand the argument.

5 members of Jehovah’s Witnesses congregations charged with child sexual abuse in Pennsylvania Inside the brutal world of the Jehovah’s Witnesses Four Jehovah’s Witnesses charged with sexual abuse of 19 children across Pennsylvania Jehovah's Witnesses sued over 'historical sex abuse' A former...

There are about 5,100 Catholic bishops in the world. Jesus picked twelve disciples, yet one of them betrayed Him. That’s an 8% ratio of “bad apostles / bishops.” Another denied Him three times, but he repented, so (to be gracious) we won’t count that. Using the same ratio, there would be 408...

Posting long lists of issues is an act of desperation, so I take one at a time. The Apostolic Fathers were God's instruments in giving us the Bible, but apostates at the same time? Thank God for the ignore button. The time has come.

Are Jesus and Michael the Archangel Really the Same Person? One of the most peculiar of the WTS’s teachings is their assertion that Jesus is actually Michael the Archangel. If the JW has difficulty explaining any particular doctrine, it will be this one. Even JWs will admit that if one were to...

2000 years and we are standing stronger that ever. A kingdom with no queen would have been unthinkable to a 1st century Jew. The Davidic Kingdom was monarchical. You don't know what means. A collection of "Kingdom Halls" is not in the Bible. False Bibles were rejected, the same as any...

@Angelina This thread has degenerated into a brawl, and should not be open to further replies.

Bishops are instructed, by Vatican directive, to report all allegations of abuse to the police. JW's sweep it under the rug. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jehovah%27s_Witnesses%27_handling_of_child_sexual_abuse Would Jesus be a party to that...

The Apostolic Fathers meticulously preserved, compiled, canonized and proclaimed the Scriptures in the 4th century. Your statement is self-defeating and absurd. I'm talking about abuses by one man, John Tezel, and how the Church put an end to it. Since you cannot accept that, you ramble on with...

That's your belief, it doesn't measure up to Sacred Scripture. A committee of self-proclaimed scholars came up with a designer Bible that muddled the Incarnation by playing word games. They claimed the scriptures were in error in the first place by demonizing the Church that wrote, preserved...

Yes, it's really sad. Luther's "superior" translation was in German, not English. The Bible was divided into chapters by Bishop Stephen Langton in the 13th century, and verse numbers were added in the 15th and 16th centuries. A committee in 1950, who uses these added chapter and verse...

Yes, I am aware of that. The Church doesn't expect couples to pump out babies one after another. It's not a simplistic issue. That's why the Church proclaimed Humanae Vitae, which is the MAIN REASON the world hates us so much. It's all about sex, isn't it? TO THE CLERGY AND FAITHFUL OF THE...

That reformist rhetoric is based on the errors or one man, John Tezel, who was corrected by his bishop. The Council of Trent instituted severe reforms in the practice of granting indulgences, and, because of prior abuses, “in 1567 Pope Pius V canceled all grants of indulgences involving any fees...

Had a casual reader of the published reports and resolutions been unfamiliar with the proceedings of the 1930 conference – which the English press covered at length – she or he may have been surprised to discover that the same subcommittee which warned of the moral and national dangers...

Sooo, you wanna play rough? Playing the sex abuse card always backfires, a handy bat used when losing a debate. No, because (a) Chadwick is biased and his quote is full of holes and (b) Anglicans dropped the bomb at the Lambeth conference, 1930, the first non-Catholic church to give the green...

NWT Incarnation theology follows the Modernist heretics from the 18th century. Did Chuck Taze leave the Congregationist community on his own, or did he get thrown out? Enquiring minds want to know.

Try commenting on the content of my posts instead of unrelated irrelevant anti-Catholic traditions of men. If you can't or won't discuss like an adult, I'll commend you to care of St. Ignora.
