"No" to what?

Interesting comment. Didn't the people follow what the Apostles had to say and weren't they just men? When a replacement was chosen for Judas and given FULL Apostalic authority, doesn't that show that the authority of the Apostles could be transferred to their successors? Doesn't the bible...

Peter wasn't just a spokesman for the Apostles then but ALWAYS. He ALWAYS spoke for the Apostles. Matt. 18:21, Matt. 19:27, Mark 10:28, Mark 11:21, Mark 14:37, etc. That is the role of a leader. And in Luke 22:31-32 we see that Jesus prays for Peter alone, that his faith may not fail, and...

The following is written by a Protestant Minister who I have gained a great deal of respect for over the years. Despite our difference in faith, we have learned that there is more that unites us than separates us and I am proud to consider him a friend. I believe the above more accurately...

The LOVE of money is the root of all evil ;)

Why would I praise God in Aramaic? Why not in my native tongue which is clearer to understand? Did the Jesus or the Apostles praise God in a foreign tongue?

The fact that copies of the bible existed long before the KJV came on the scene completely disproves your point. The fact that the bible existed prior to the reformation also disproves that Protestants had anything to do with putting the bible together. Of course I want you to prove it. With the...

Ask and you shall receive ... "Catholic Church Dogmas" (deposit of faith left to us by the Apostles which includes teachings from both written scripture and oral tradition) along with "Catholic Church Doctrine" can be found here" & here.I challenge anyone to find me one thing which conflicts...

Christ established a Church which scripture tells us is the pillar of the faith and the defender of the truth. You are either with it or against it. You have made it clear that you are not with it' date=' therefore you are protesting (Protestant) against it. What are you? For it (Catholic)? Or...

I already did the last time that you asked. Given the fact that you did not address it, I suggest that you go back to the drawing board.And as far as basing things on just one verse from scripture, Jesus did that all of the time through out the NT. Once was when He was being tempted of the devil...

I salute you for your honesty and shows that you are a person of integrity. While we may hold different positions, I respect a person who argues for the truth more than just for winning the argument. My hat is off to you.

if all we need is the bible on it's own, how do you explain the canon of Scripture? How do you know what Scriptures are inspired using only the bible? You cannot, and this is devastating to the notion of sola Scriptura. You see, it was the Catholic Church who selected the canon of Scripture at...

From your link ... "All pope quotes are found in The Apostolic Digest, Sacred Heart Press, Irving, TX, 1987."There is no such publishing house. Sort of places more doubt on these claims. There is, however, a "Sacred Heart tattoo parlor" in Irving, TX.

... Peter would have never done the things your popes have ... Like deny Jesus not once or even twice but three times?

In Mark 3:16 and John 1:42 we see that Jesus renames Simon "Kepha" in Aramaic which literally means "rock." This was an extraordinary thing for Jesus to do, because "rock" was not even a name in Jesus' time. Jesus did this, not to give Simon a strange name, but to identify his new status among...

Which they HAVE the authority to "invent" (as you put it) based on Matthew 16:19 which states ... "I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven." ...

Yeah"]here[/url] that "The word 'church' is used 72 times in the NT. Not once does it say that the church is the defender of the truth." but completely missed 1 Timothy 3:15 which states "If I am delayed, you may know how one ought to behave in the household of God, which is the church of the...

From the PROTESTANT viewpoint IGNORING what was real hostory.

What is your source for these quotes that you attribute to Pope Pius XI? Looking through the encyclicals produced by Pope Pius XI via the Apostolic Digest, I do not see them anywhere. Unless it is from an official Catholic source, I need to question whether they were actually made by him. Please...
