I have my doubts that Catholicism is Christianity

[BreadOfLife]

Show me where it says that any other autrhority is profitable for doctrine, reproof, correction and instruction in righteousness.

Even Jesus said man does not live by bread alone but by every word the comes from god (Scripture)

EASY . . .

Matt 16:18-19
And so I say to you, you are Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church, and the gates of the netherworld shall not prevail against it.
I will give you the keys to the kingdom of heaven. WHATEVER YOU BIND on earth shall be bound in heaven; and WHATEVER YOU LOOSE on earth shall be loosed in heaven."

Matt. 18:15-18
"If your brother sins (against you), go and tell him his fault between you and him alone. If he listens to you, you have won over your brother.
If he does not listen, take one or two others along with you, so that 'every fact may be established on the testimony of two or three witnesses.'
If he refuses to listen to them, tell the church. If he refuses to listen even to the church, then treat him as you would a Gentile or a tax collector.
Amen, I say to you, WHATEVER YOU BIND on earth shall be bound in heaven, and WHATEVER YOU LOOSE on earth shall be loosed in heaven.

John 16:12-15
“I have much more to tell you, but you cannot bear it now.
But when he comes, the Spirit of truth, he will guide you to ALL truth. He will not speak on his own, but he will speak what he hears, and will declare to YOU the things that are coming.
He will glorify me, because he will TAKE from what is MINE and declare it to YOU.
Everything that the Father has is MINE; for this reason I told you that he will TAKE from what is MINE and declare it to YOU.

2 Thess 2:15
"Stand firm and hold fast to the Traditions you were taught, whether by an ORAL STATEMENT or by a LETTER from us."

Luke 10:16
Whoever listens to YOU listens to ME. Whoever rejects YOU rejects ME. And whoever rejects ME rejects the ONE who sent ME."

I’d say that about covers it . . .

I only Teach Paul's Theology that containes "Paul's Gospel".

Paul Gospel is 'justification by faith", without the law, self effort, or water baptism.

And in your abject ignorance – you actually believe that Paul taught a “different” Gospel. Hi DIDN’T.

Like ANY other human teacher – Paul, Peter, John and the rest came from diggerent perspectives – they didn’t teach “different” Gospels, Einstein.

Jesus id not schizophrenic – and neither is His Gospel . . .

Jesus is the "Head of the Body", but the Gosple is something Different.

Jesus IS the Gospel message.

Jesus never gave the original 12 Apostles, "Paul's Gospel", as Christ only gave it to Paul Later, because Jesus called Paul to be the "Apostle to the gentiles" after Jesus was back in Heaven.
This should be obvious to a 3 yrs old.

This is why Paul says that this Gospel is "MY Gospel". 3x in the NT
This is why He told you that your gospel is this : Galatians 1:8, because your gospel is not His.



Your mouth is much larger then your IQ.. @BreadOfLife


Notice..

Paul's said '"""""i learned this gospel from no man...., because it came from JESUS""">
And Paul's Gospel, has no water baptism in it......it only has "Justification by faith".

Now, Peter didnt have this Gospel until he met Paul...., as Peter didnt even know that Gentiles could be saved, until Acts 10, when God showed Him.
Acts 10 is 10 yrs after Jesus is back in Heaven.

Peter learned Paul's Gospel in Acts 15, when all the Apostles learned it from Paul.., as that is when they met Paul.



Paul said that Galatians 1:8 is.......any person or angel preach any other gospel then His.

So, that is everyone, anyone, anywhere, and it includes Angels.

This means that "Baptismal Regeneration" or any type of "works based" salvation.........Paul used the word "Accursed"......if you teach it.

Jesus didn’t “change” the requirements for salvation from the Jews to the Gentiles.
We ALL must believe and surrender to Him. Have you learned NOTHING from God’s Word??

Gal. 3:28
There is neither Jew nor Gentile, neither slave nor free, nor is there male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus.

The Apostles taught different perspectives about the SAME subject because they were preaching to different cultures.
It's NOT hard to understand . . .

Now you’re just LYING again. - or you'e just really clueless.
Peter preached the Gospel to Cornelius - BEFORE he ever met Paul.

At the Council of Jerusalem – they ALL shared their different perspectives and came to a conclusion. That’s the way Councils have works down through the centuries. You seriously need to do your homework.

YOUR problem is that you’re a “Paul Worshipper” instead of a Gospel-Lover . . .

Paul said that Galatians 1:8 is.......any person or angel preach any other gospel then His.

You CAN’T be this dense . . .

This message was exclusively for the Galatians who were LOSING faith in Christ. Here is the verse IN CONTEXT:
Gal/ 1:7-9
I am astonished that you are so quickly deserting the one who called you to live in the grace of Christ and are turning to a different gospel—which is really no gospel at all. Evidently some people are throwing you into confusion and are trying to pervert the gospel of Christ. But even if we or an angel from heaven should preach a gospel other than the one we preached to you, let them be under God’s curse!

A BIG problem of the 1st century Church was Gnosticism. This is the “other Gospel” Paul is writing about. He mentons them in 1 Tim. 4:3 as well. He is NOT saying that the Gospel being preached by the other Apostles is “wrong”.

This is what happens ignorant people get a hold of the Bible and invent all kinds of abominations as YOU have . . .

 

[Dan Clarkston]

He is NOT saying that the Gospel being preached by the other Apostles is “wrong”

Too bad modern day catholics have departed from the doctrine of the Apostles, aka the Doctrine of Christ.

 

[Lizbeth]

Ok, as soon as you show where Jesus and the apostles conducted marriage and funeral ceremonies, administered confirmation, made the sign of the cross, had Bible studies, and other rituals that Protestants perform.

"Ceremonies" belong to this world and the flesh....they come under "elements of this world" of the old covenant......the kingdom of God is not about ceremonies/rituals. The early church certainly didn't have "confirmation" ceremonies, but people received the Holy Spirit in reality. There is nothing in scripture about "the sign of the cross" either. Bible studies aren't rituals, they are simply believers getting together and looking into the scriptures together and discussing them. But this isn't a competition between Protestant church and Catholicism. The Protestant church is on a downward slope of falling away and that is why it is softening its stance and finding itself having more in common with Catholicism these days.

You don't need to know in advance if I will understand or not in order to follow through and show that you can support your assertions. So, when the Rosary meditation prayer is prayed as intended to be, explain how it's vain repetition. And, if I've been deceived, quote the part(s) in post #171 that are untrue.

The only thing we are instructed in scripture to meditate on is the word of God....chewing the cud of God's word, so to speak. Other forms of meditation are pagan or man-made....at best it profits nothing, and at worst it opens the door to demons.

 

[Lizbeth]

Well despite your strong implication my7 mind and heart are in bondage and cannot receive what you are peddling, eternal security is the biblical absolute.

Eternal life is just that....ETERNAL. NO where does it say it is temporary.

And you completely misread my attitude!

Most of those verses you cite you have misunderstood and I believe it is because you have not gone back to the greek to look at them.

I just have noticed that when people have a lie lodged in their mind it blinds them to simple clear teachings of scripture, quite literally. Those scriptures I posted agree with many others. Unless you want to make a case that they have all be misinterpreted.

Eternal life is inherited....like any inheritance people can lose or forfeit their inheritance for different reasons.

You don't seem to find the idea of new believers who remain sitting under Catholicism and its teachings to be concerning, that is what came across as a casual attitude to me....but if I've misunderstood, I apologize.

 

[Behold]

HUH??

It’s preservd in the original languages and MANY others.

Not initially.

For example the Latin Vulgate Catholic Bible was translated into English as the Wycliff Bible.

Later the KJV, in English

Later all the english versions...... over 850 now.

And as Missionariers started churches, all over the world, the need for a blble for those Christans, would arise.....but none of those is the Universal bible, as this is going to be in English.

WRONG.

, John 20:21-23

Many things were done by the Apostles, before Jesus died on The Cross.
And after He died, He told the Apostles certain things......but these are always the "Acts of The Apostles" and not the acts of the Christian.

See, its the "ACTS... the book of Acts of the Apostles".

So, this is why you can't forgiven anyone's sins, and no minister or Pope. can forgive anyone's sins.

Sins can only be forgiven through The Cross of Christ, and this can only happen when the person trusts in Christ and then God will forgive them. (One believer at a time).

The Holy Spirit inspired Paul and the rest to write what they did.
Any FIRST year Bible studen knows this . . .

Actually Paul said that Jesus gave Him The Gospel, personally, and the church doctrine.

 

[Behold]

I hope that you read the article Did the Apostles Pray the Rosary?, and not only understand what the Rosary prayer is, but see that the "soul" of it is scriptural.

None of the apostles were Catholics.
Jesus isn't a Catholic.

So, this '"rosary" issue, is not found in a New Testament. Its found in MaryCult writings, written by Marycult writers.


Catholics always try to impose those MaryCult teachings OVER the NT, and of course that is why so much of the MaryCult teaching is not found in a bible, and its anti-Paul's Doctrine for the "Church"

See, the MaryCult is built on Peter, and Mary, "Catholic Church writers", and Popes., and water baptism, whereas Christianity is bulit on The Cross, and the Apostles, and Paul's Doctrine and the Holy Spirit.

 

[Lizbeth]

Protestants say that, and yet they do those things which, according to them, are unscriptural, while condemning Catholics for saying a prayer they consider unscriptural. Double standard.

There are errors in Protestantism and even more so in recent times. This isn't a competition between "Protestantism" and Catholicism, as I've already said. We happen to be talking about Catholicism versus the true gospel and biblical Christianity as given to us by Jesus and the apostles.

Bible study can be a ritual, as in "an act or series of acts regularly repeated in a set precise manner".

Having a set time to come together and study the bible can be called a routine or a habit, not a ritual. Unless someone somehow deliberately makes a ritual out of it, though I'm at a loss as to how studying the bible could be made into a ritual.

The Rosary is a scripture-based meditation prayer.

It is not scripture based. Praying to Mary in itself defiantly goes AGAINST scripture. And God instructs us not to worship Him the way pagans worship their idols/gods. The use of meditation beads is pagan........it is strange fire....which doesn't end well. We are only to worship Him with pure heavenly things (fire from heaven). That which is OF Him, of His SPIRIT, because we who are born of Him HAVE His Spirit. We are not to build using wood, hay and stubble of this world and the flesh, but only those things which can't be burned up because they are of His Spirit.

You don't need to know in advance if I will understand or not in order to follow through and show that you can support your assertions. So, when the Rosary meditation prayer is prayed as intended to be, explain how it's vain repetition. And, if I've been deceived, quote the part(s) in post #171 that are untrue.

It's very simple. Rote prayers are vain, meaning in vain. Praying them repetitiously is vain repetition. It's what pagans and witches do. God is looking for worshipers to worship Him in SPIRIT and in TRUTH, from our heart/spirit to God's heart, not by rote robotically which doesn't touch God's heart at best and offends Him at worst.

Catholicism unfortunately is an unholy mixture of paganism mixed with things of God. Mixing the unclean with what is pure and clean renders the clean unclean. This is why God hates mixture. It is spiritual adultery/harlotry as depicted by Mystery Babylon, Mother of Harlots riding the beast, in bed mixing with things that belong to the fallen world and flesh. And this is why we are instructed by both testaments to "come out of it/her and touch not the unclean thing" and be holy/clean....separate from what is unclean, that God might receive us as sons/daughters. The apostate Israelites taken "captive" by Babylon is a picture of the same thing... it is an allegory of God giving Israel over to her spiritual adultery and mixing worship of Him with pagan worship. As the apostle wrote, those things happened unto Israel and were written down as examples/allegories and admonition/warning to the church.

 

[Behold]

I recommend that you read The holy scriptures in the Rosary

Stop selling MaryCult literature, and get a New Testament, and learn some BIBLE, as then you'll be a very unique Catholic, vs just being their Hyper Religious TOOL .

And if you believe that Water Baptism has washed away your sin, then you have an eternal problem, that you need to resolve.

 

[Behold]

If you read the reading material that I recommended,

Stop trying to SELL MaryCult to the forum.
Most of us are not buying it, and those who are thinking about it, need to get your head back into the Truth.

Reader, look at this ........Photograph.

WRONG.

Whereas forgiveness for ALL sin is only available through the finished work of Jesus – He absolutely gave this power to the leaders of His Church. The Bible tells us that the position of Apostle was a successive office (Acts 1:20, 2 Tim. 2:2). Time for a Bible Lesson . . .

The practice of telling our sins directly to a priest is based directly in Scripture. THREE times in the Gospels (Matt. 16:19, 18:18 and John 20:23), we read where Jesus gave the Apostles the power to forgive sins or to hold them bound. This is not a something that Jesus took lightly. In John 20:21-23, Jesus (who is God) breathes on the Apostles as he is giving them this power:

John 20:21-2
(Jesus) said to them again, "Peace be with you. As the Father has sent me, SO I SEND YOU."
And when he had said this, he breathed on them and said to them, "Receive the holy Spirit. Whose sins YOU forgive are forgiven them, and whose sins YOU retain are retained."

God ONLY breathes on people TWO times in ALL of Scripture:
The first is when he breathed life into Adam.
The second is here in John’s Gospel when he is giving them the power to forgive or retain sins.

Jesus told them: “As the Father has sent ME, SO I SEND YOU."
WHAT did the Father send the Son to do?? He sent Him to bring about the FORGIVENESS OF SINS.

He sent them – as the Father sent HIM – to forgive sins.

Paul makes the case for this ministry of reconciliation:
2 Cor. 5:18-20:
“And all this is from God, who has reconciled us to himself through Christ and given us the ministry of reconciliation, namely, God was reconciling the world to himself in Christ, not counting their trespasses against them and entrusting to us the message of reconciliation. So we are ambassadors for Christ, as if God were appealing through us. We implore you on behalf of Christ, be reconciled to God.”

In 2 Cor. 2:10, Paul states, “Whomever you forgive anything, so do I. For indeed what I have forgiven, if I have forgiven anything, has been for you in the presence of Christ”

Actually Paul said that Jesus gave Him The Gospel, personally, and the church doctrine.

Jesus gave Paul the Gospel – but He didn’t dictate His Epistles. They were inspired by the Holy Spirit.

WRONG again . . .

Ezek. 36:25-28
I will sprinkle clean water upon you, and you shall be clean from all your uncleanness from all your idols I will cleanse you. A new heart I will give you, and a new spirit I will put within you; and I will remove from your body the heart of stone and give you a heart of flesh. I will put my spirit within you, and make you follow my statutes and be careful to observe my ordinances. Then you shall live in the land that I gave to your ancestors; and you shall be my people, and I will be your God.

John 3:5
Jesus answered, "Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God.

Mark 16:16
He who believes and is baptized will be saved; but he who does not believe will be condemned.

Acts 2:3839
And Peter said to them, “Repent and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ rfor the forgiveness of your sins, and you will receive sthe gift of the Holy Spirit. For tthe promise is for you and ufor your children and for all who are far off, everyone whom the Lord our God calls to himself.”

Acts 22:16
And now why do you wait? Rise and be baptized, and wash away your sins, calling on his name.'

Col. 2:11-12
In him also you were circumcised with a circumcision made without hands, by putting off the body of flesh in the circumcision of Christ; and you were buried with him in baptism, in which you were also raised with him through faith in the working of God, who raised him from the dead

1 Pet. 3:21
Baptism, which corresponds to this, now saves you, not as a removal of dirt from the body but as an appeal to God for a clear conscience, through the resurrection of Jesus Christ,

John 3:5
Jesus answered, "Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born of WATER and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God.

 

[Behold]

WRONG.

Whereas forgiveness for ALL sin is only available through the finished work of Jesus – He absolutely gave this power to the leaders of His Church.

Try to understand that forgiveness from God, is only found as the "blood atonement"......and this means that "in the time of the Gentiles"... this eternal forgiveness is only found when a person gives God THEIR Faith in Christ as "Jesus is the one time Eternal sacrifice for Sin".

Now....Let me show you.

Lets say im a Black Robe Parish Priest, and you come and tell me......>"Father i have killed my mother".

And i say.......>Ok,.... do 50 "hail mary's" and give 1000.00 dollars to the church".....you are forgiven."

I just lied to you., as they will, every single time.

The practice of telling our sins directly to a priest

The only Priest that a Christian is to deal with = is our High Priest who is our heavenely """"advocate, and that Is Jesus The Christ.
You and the MaryCult insult Him when you try to send sinners to anyone else.

So, even the teaching that you are teaching is shown to be false like this......., as Catholics take their sins and issues to MARY in prayer, and Mary is not a "Priest", yet you just said that a sinners are to take their issues to a :" Priest."

Therefore.....See Mary a little later on today.... regarding the entirety of the MaryCult False theology.

Jesus told them: “As the Father has sent ME, SO I SEND YOU..

He's Talking to The Jewish Apostles, and you not one of those.

 

[Behold]

WRONG again . . .

Ezek. 36:25-28
I will sprinkle clean water upon you,

Yes, Jesus will do that for any believer....., not your city water supply baptismal pool.
You've confused the two,..... as a "water cult" has taught you to be confused.

Notice, "Jesus is the living water"......and that is not your baptism pool that needs to be warmed before you get in it.

So, when JESUS pours the water of cleansing of sin, = that is the "washing of regeneration".. = that is the SPIRIT being born again inside a BELIEVER....., by the Holy Spirit ..........and NEVER by WATER.

John 3:5
Jesus answered, "Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born of WATER and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God.

@BreadOfLife ..

unless you were hatched........the you were born after your mother's water broke, and you were in it....... and out you came all WET.

This is """"born of water"""......or the EARTH BIRTH = the Natural Child Birth of a Human.

And now if you want to go to heaven, you have to be.......BORN AGAIN....as you've already been BORN.... (ask your mother).
So, the 2nd BIRTHDAY.......is by the Holy Spirit.....not by water.. = but "by my Spirit sayeth the Lord".. and this is to be "born again"... which is the spiritual birth that creates the "new creation in Christ"..

When the future gets here, we'll see who ends up where. Enjoy.

See, the "Gospel" is Paul's Gospel

No, the Gospel is the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

A common misconception is that Paul taught a different gospel than Jesus and this is what the false grace crowd is hawkin because they don't understand that the LORD is the One Who gave the Biblical writers instructions on what to write. It's false doctrine to claim Paul taught something different than what Jesus taught

1 Timothy 6:3-5
If any man teach otherwise, and consent not to wholesome words, even the words of our Lord Jesus Christ, and to the doctrine which is according to godliness;
He is proud, knowing nothing, but doting about questions and strifes of words, whereof cometh envy, strife, railings, evil surmisings,
Perverse disputings of men of corrupt minds, and destitute of the truth, supposing that gain is godliness: from such withdraw thyself.

This is why real Christians depart from the greasy false grace teachers because they claim Jesus is a liar and oppose the Words of Jesus

Luke 16:16
The law and the prophets were until John: since that time the kingdom of God is preached, and every man presseth into it.

Paul taught the Gospel of the Kingdom like Jesus did which is only accessible thru faith

Romans 4:16
Therefore it is of faith, that it might be by grace; to the end the promise might be sure to all the seed; not to that only which is of the law, but to that also which is of the faith of Abraham; who is the father of us all

Ephesians 2:8
For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:

No faith, no grace, no salvation

Romans 12:3
God hath dealt to every man the measure of faith.

And saving faith is an ACTION, not just claiming to believe only which is mental assent

Mental assent is the intellectual agreement or acceptance of a belief or idea without allowing it to influence one's actions or life. It involves acknowledging something as true, such as the teachings of a religion, but not fully committing to or acting upon that belief.

James 2:26
For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also.

James 1:22
But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves.

Sadly, the greasy grace teachers reject the definition of grace the Lord gives in His Word:

Titus 2:11,12
For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men,
Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world;

 

[Behold]

When the future gets here, we'll see who ends up where. Enjoy.

Im already born again, "In Christ" as "one with God"......."seated in Heavenly places" as a "Heir of God, and a "joint Heir with Jesus".
Im the Temple of the Holy Spirit".

So, "Enjoy"

No, the Gospel is the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

Paul's Gospel is "the preaching of the Cross"........that is "justification by Faith", that is.. = "All who call on the name of Jesus, by faith, shall be saved" By God, through the finished work of Jesus on The Cross.

A common misconception is that Paul taught a different gospel than Jesus

The Body of Christ began with the Cross of Christ that birthed the NEW Covenant NT Church.
So, when Jesus was talking to the Jews only, before He was crucified, He was NOT sharing "the gospel" that is PAUL's.

So...........See PAUL the Apostle for the "Gospel"., as any other is :

Galatians 1:8

Mental assent

""Mental assent""""" = in the case of a hell bound unforgiven sinner, would be that they know about Jesus, like the Dictionary knows Him........ but they do not Personally Know Him by FAITH.
