Well, thanks for the morning exercise. I'm fascinated by people who tell me what I think and believe. It has been interesting, especially the way as the weakness of the original post became increasingly apparent, so did the assault on Catholicism.

I have been doing biblical exegesis for 30 years - so shut up. You are in error.

Who can argue with 'reasoning' like this?

the only pride going on here is men on this page who trust scholars words above God’s Word...

30 years of study makes you a scholar. So in an effort to avoid pride, I will not trust your words.

On the contrary, I am saved by the blood of Jesus Christ and my eternal salvation has been accomplished by the cross of Christ dying for my sins; which are COMPLETELY FORGIVEN. Upon my last day on earth (death), I will be directly transferred into the presence of Christ. My salvation is assured by the Holy Spirit in Romans. My relationship with God is In Christ; that is: God the Father, God the Son, God the Holy Spirit are in my soul as is clearly explained in Romans through Philemon.

Well, glory to God! That however has nothing to do with the reliability of your exegesis.

You have correctly identified the Catholic church and Pope in their pride and self exaltment!

I think the word you're looking for is "exaltation." I wondered when and how the thread would reveal the anti-Catholicism.

Those books are NON-Biblical and NOT from GOD!

In what part of the Bible is the biblical canon set forth?

[Cronos]
