"I am in all and above all, so that God Himself and I, the vicar of God, hath both one consistory, and I am able to do almost all that God can do…wherefore, if those things that I do be said not to be done of man, but of God, what do you make of me but God? Again, if prelates of the Church be called of Constantine for gods, I then being above all prelates, seem by this reason to be above all gods. Wherefore, no marvel, if it be in my power to dispense with all things, yea with the precepts of Christ."- Pope Nicholas(Decret. par. Distinct 96 ch. 7 edit. Lugo 1661)


2Th:2:3: Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition;
2Th:2:4: Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.

Well, if it's arrogant, then it's not a true, Biblical revelation.

(I can think of other reasons, too, why it isn't.)

Why don't you spit those reasons out then?


And while you are at it tell me how Pope Nicholas' statements weren't arrogant as well as revealing.
