“Praying for you and the rest of the under-informed”
Great! To Baalam? Or his donkey?
Have you ever been mistaken for a Christian?
“Have you ever been mistaken for a Christian?”
No, but I’ve been clearly identified as one.
Catholics wrote the OT as well then. Rooster behavior.
Catholic Jews, who knew? Whose next..Moses?
Baloney. Scripture was written down long before Jesus came to this earth. He referred to it Himself.
And the NT existed as books long before the RCC compiled it into one volume.
Here's another one for you gamecock.
The table of contents was divinely inspired?!?!
FOTFLOL!!!!!
Acts 12:21-23 On an appointed day Herod put on his royal robes, took his seat upon the throne, and delivered an oration to them. And the people were shouting, “The voice of a god, and not of a man!” Immediately an angel of the Lord struck him down, because he did not give God the glory, and he was eaten by worms and breathed his last.

I'm astounded at the Herod-like behavior, prideful claims and self-aggrandizing that occurs by (some) FRomans on these threads.
Clearly, it is not all FRomans or all Catholics. I've known a number of Roman Catholics who have come to saving faith. I've also known protestants I would not trust because their choices didn't reflect a saving knowledge of Christ. But everyone who names the name of Christ should be marked by not trying to usurp God's glory.
It makes me long for the simple and humble company of a true servant of God - Baalam's ass.
LOL!!
“it appears that no Divinely inspired writings were Divinely inspired until Rome said so”
You’re getting smart now. Of course it was working through the Holy Spirit, but you are right, Catholics were in Rome, not baptists or mormans, and any other of the 50,000 or so protestant sects.
The world has counterfeited time and God’s calendar in Scripture with the Gregorian calendar, a namesake of pope gregory- one the catholic church would be proud of I assume..
Which most of the secular world follows, too.. ( pretty sure most protestant churches use the same calendar as the secular USA and the likes at the UN does)
God’s word tells us what a day is, what a year is, what a month is and what a week is...
And the gregorian calendar tells us something different for each of those..
Changing times and laws was somewhere in prophecy wasn’t it? Daniel 7:25 if I can recall..
Kind of ironic, so many opinions about a pope and yet everyone’s whole life is centered around the timekeeping of one with the pope gregory’s namesake, Gregorian calendar.
God’s calendar is not the one the world uses. Man marks time differently with the help of calculated calendars, like the pope’s calendar.
Quite a revelation if it gets revealed to you..
Puts catholic/protestants/secular humanists in same boat on one thing. They way they mark time..
You’re simply rephrasing what I just said, with a twist,... so it’s more palatable to you....
Of course their were Christians before the Bible......The book of Acts tells us much about how Christians were at that time...as does much of the New Testament...
I am more inclined to accept ‘Jewish accounts’ of History and that which was passed on via word of mouth... and their written accounts...over that of other men’s “traditions” claimed as ‘the source’.
....<<<”The challenge for the protestant is asking someone who has physically died to pray for them”>>>>>.....
It’s not by any means of the word “A Challenge” for Christians to pray to someone who has died, it’s not even a consideration nor need it be when we can go directly to The King Himself...who by the way is over all and everything.
Jesus tells us to bring our requests to Him....and He’s far more than sufficient to handle whatever they might be... After all He is God.
Get a copy of this and enlighten yourself on the History of Christianity.
Thanks but no thanks....”obvious” catholic source would be biased.
