and you know this how??....the only scripture writings that you have to read were given to you be the Catholic church...and they read the same writings, and ONLY they are authorized to interpret them.

Uhhh. No. The Scripture says this -- and Scripture was given to us by God... remember -- "God-breathed"? Seems to me also that the Catholic Church wasn't around when God inspired the writers of the Old Testament. Just like the Catholic church wasn't around when God inspired the writers of the New Testament.

Now. Back to your question. Do you deny that Christ was born sinless? If so, you deny God.

In Romans 3:23, we read:
"for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,"

All. All have sinned. Except for Christ.

And in 2 Cor. 5:21 we read
"For our sake he made him to be sin who knew no sin, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God."

So... the Scriptures, given to us by God (despite the Roman Catholic Church) tells us this. Seems pretty plain to me.

Try reading it sometime.

Happy New Year!

Uhhhhhhh, The inspired words of God, through the prophets and apostles, including the old testament writers are brought to you, in easy to read and understand, book form by the Catholic church. You can go, of course to a synagogue and read the old testament, but if you want to buy it at a book store, you buy a bible which was compiled, copied (by hand)preserved through the ages, made available to the masses after the printing press was invented (by a Catholic)....Otherwise you wouldn't have the faintest idea of who Jesus was. Yes, the word of God comes from Him...but He chose the Catholic church to do the grunt work for Him.

Say thanks, Catholics.

No. The Scripture says this

Where does it say in scripture that we have to find everything in the Bible? .
