There are no priests in the New Testament bible...And the clergy there are required to be married with children...If your bible says otherwise, it's a fake...A counterfeit...
If your clergy wear long robes, embroidered with gold and love to sit at the front of the congregation, yours is a false religion according to the bible...You are forbidden to call these clergy father...If they tell you that you can't eat certain foods on certain days, it's a false church...It is not the church of the bible, according to the bible...
If you give reverence to any individual which goes what is beyond written in the bible, you are rebuked by the bible...
Jesus says the Old Testament consists of the Psalms, the Law and the Prophets...If your bible has more books than those, it is a fake bible...And this is just the short list...
>> It is not the church of the bible, according to the bible...
The slick way around that is to claim that if Holy Papa says “A” which is in contradiction to the Bible which says “B”... then Papa overrules. Because, you see, he was elected by some cardinals and what he says is infallible! Oh, and because Peter.
I think they call it “Sola Po-Po” or something. It is a replacement for our stubborn belief in GOD’s flimsy Word, which they denigrate as “Sola Scriptura” or something.
It’s all very confusing, from their point of view. (Pretty clear from where I stand, though, which is on JESUS’ saving work and His complete and all-sufficient Word).
