Yeah, sensitive to disingenuity. Look, if this Protestant critic of Replacement theology had been honest, he’d have started with Luther and Calvin. But no, he has to give the heresy long historical roots. What comes before Luther and Calvin? Hint? It’s not the Quakers or the Pentecostals. For most people it’s the Catholic Church. I pointed out that he doesn’t mention the Catholic Church. He couldn’t, but he darn sure intended to imply the Catholic Church. That’s what makes it such a cheap shot.

Replacement theology is an invention of the Reformation era.

You posted this on a thread whose starting point was the claim that Catholics endorse replacement theology.

Why did you post it? In exactly what way did you think it contributed to the thread?

I posted it because I think this is dangerous theology, and it highlighted the really bad places Luther's failure to take the things concerning Israel as literally as he took salvation by faith led.

Actually, he did start with them.

You just don't like the fact that he then pointed to deeper historical roots for this destructive heresy.
