Sorry for the delayed response. Such is the life of a truck driver that still lives offline when away from home.
**Except Jesus died and people prayed to Him.**
As I said, He showed the example while he lived the mortal life, by praying to God only. Since he is filled with God, and given all power by the Father since his resurrection, we can pray to him.
**That’s not an example of any misunderstanding of scripture on MY part. Tell me the verse I am misunderstanding. List it.**
You and your likeminded fellows use passages, such as Mary stepping in, to make it known to Jesus, that the wedding had run out of wine, as though she is to forever be a mediator between the mortals and God.
The story of Bathsheba being mediator is used as well, even though it turned out really bad for the man making the request.
**There is no number attached to the Mass. Christ wanted it done; we do it.**
Does your organization not stress that it is for eternal life? Yet it is not mentioned in DETAIL in the book of Acts, where conversions were the norm; and only a couple of times in detail in all of the epistles, which were sent to possibly a dozen different locations. The apostles knew that repentance, baptism in the name of Jesus for the remission of sins, and being filled with the same Spirit that raised Jesus from the dead would literally put “Christ in you, the hope of glory”.
False. I never said that “God the Son” is either a fragment of a sentence or a sentence............................This is called the English language and that’s how it works.**
Scriptural phrase: God the Father
not: the Father of God
Scriptural phrase: the Son of God
not: God the Son
Scriptural phrase: the Spirit of God
not: God the Holy Spirit (Ghost)
The Father is not OF God, the Father IS God. John 4:23,24
The Son is OF God, and testified of it often. One of my favorite references:
“Jesus saith unto her, Touch me not; for I am not yet ascended to my Father: but go to my brethren, and say unto them, I ascend unto my Father, and to your Father; and to my God, and to your God.” Jn 20:17
I have other references to add, but have outdoor chores to get done. Have a good day!
“Sorry for the delayed response. Such is the life of a truck driver that still lives offline when away from home.”
I understand.
“As I said, He showed the example while he lived the mortal life, by praying to God only. Since he is filled with God, and given all power by the Father since his resurrection, we can pray to him.”
And to the Father, and to the Holy Spirit, and to the Saints.

As expected, you failed to post a verse that I am actually misunderstanding. As I said, “Tell me the verse I am misunderstanding. List it.” Can you do it or not?

“Does your organization not stress that it is for eternal life?”
What is “it’? I don’t know what you’re referring to since the antecedent would be “your organization”.
“Yet it is not mentioned in DETAIL in the book of Acts, where conversions were the norm; and only a couple of times in detail in all of the epistles, which were sent to possibly a dozen different locations.”
And no where in the Bible is sola scriptura mentioned and when sola fide is mentioned it is clearly a condemnation. So what’s your point? John 6, and the gospels clearly point to the Mass. Is Jesus saying it not enough suddenly?
“The apostles knew that repentance, baptism in the name of Jesus for the remission of sins, and being filled with the same Spirit that raised Jesus from the dead would literally put “Christ in you, the hope of glory”.”
And none of that negates the “breaking of bread”.
“Scriptural phrase: God the Father. not: the Father of God”
Who is using “Father of God”? You’re literally making something up that no one is saying.
“Scriptural phrase: the Son of God. not: God the Son”
Jesus is God. Jesus is the Son of God. Jesus is, therefore, God the Son.
“Scriptural phrase: the Spirit of God. not: God the Holy Spirit (Ghost)”
The Holy Spirit is God. The Holy Spirit is, therefore, God the Holy Spirit.
“The Father is not OF God, the Father IS God. John 4:23,24”
No one is saying the Father is OF God. Your problem is with understanding English.
“The Son is OF God, and testified of it often. One of my favorite references:”
All three Divine Persons are God. It’s just that simple.
“I have other references to add, but have outdoor chores to get done. Have a good day!”
I will. I hope you do too. It’s a shame that your lack of knowledge about English is actually interfering with your knowledge of God. Work on that.
