Didn’t figure you would. It would have to be someone after Luther, Calvin, Zwingli, or Wesley.
Sorry, don't idolize church fathers the way you guys do so haven't been on the lookout for much of the "who believed what and when stuff".
Matthew must have been a protestant. He said it. But I doubt he was around in the 17th century.
Matthew was not a Protestant and there is no debate on what he said. It’s the interpretation.
Believe me, I'm not the one debating what he said.
Yes. Because He obviously has. Duh.
So the promise of Christ to protect his church wasn’t to be in effect until after the reformation? I can’t believe that since Christ said he is the way, the truth and the life. It is inconceivable he would allow error to be taught in his church.
He isn't allowing the error to be taught in your perefect church. Really shouldn't blame him.
You assume the catholic church is the only one. I don't. He's certainly protected me and others from that heresy. So I guess he's protected part of His church.
Beginning when and what church is he protecting?
You're asking me? You answered this for both of us in your previous post. Remember? You part of the church. Me not.
If you can answer this it will provide the answer of who first interpreted Matthew the way you do.
I have a hunch that Matthew would be extememly disappointed in the way your church has twisted the Lord's words thru him.
What, only a hunch? I thought you Proddies had the infallible ability to read the thoughts of a 1st Century Jew about whom we knew next to nothing just by reading a Greek translation of his original work.
Please go to www.scripturecatholic.com, click on "Blessed virgin mary" then on "Mary ever virgin" and post a link to the scripture verses that use "until" in a particular way?
Steven, for your consideration.
I did not answer this for you. I'm asking because you said this on the previous thread "You assume the catholic church is the only one. I don't. He's certainly protected me and others from that heresy. So I guess he's protected part of His church."
So I'll ask again. What church is he protecting and when did he start protecting it?
