Perhaps the fact that I am a Christian and you are apparently not makes all the difference in the world.Wow... what an ignorant statement to make. It's about what I would expect from someone with no other argument but his orthodoxy and indoctrination.
I am not mocking the church of Christ. I repeat, I am mocking the Roman Catholic usurpers*. Your group takes Jesus words and builds an earthly hierarchy with a man called "father" as it's titular head, in spite of the words I posted previously where Jesus specifically says it is wrong. You are apparently blinded to any truth I might illuminate, which is why I pray for you.
Jesus had already built His church, and paid the price with His blood. I do mock your groups claims of exclusivity and claims of the power to deny salvation. Only God holds those keys, and Jesus is His name! You blaspheme the Holy Spirit living in me with your judgment.
Revelation 2: 1 Then I saw in the right hand of him who sat on the throne a scroll with writing on both sides and sealed with seven seals. 2 And I saw a mighty angel proclaiming in a loud voice, "Who is worthy to break the seals and open the scroll?" 3 But no one in heaven or on earth or under the earth could open the scroll or even look inside it. 4I wept and wept because no one was found who was worthy to open the scroll or look inside. 5 Then one of the elders said to me, "Do not weep! See, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, has triumphed. He is able to open the scroll and its seven seals."
The cross is empty. The victory is won! He is Risen!

***Wow... what an ignorant statement to make. It’s about what I would expect from someone with no other argument but his orthodoxy and indoctrination.***
You are missing the Gospel quotes that I post. Perhaps that black hole that occupies your computer just dumps them into the Andromeda galaxy when I post them.
***I am not mocking the church of Christ. ***
You most certainly are.
***I repeat, I am mocking the Roman Catholic usurpers*. ***
I’m not sure what a Roman Catholic usurpers* is, but you are most certainly mocking the Church of Jesus Christ.
***Your group takes Jesus words and builds an earthly hierarchy with a man called “father” as it’s titular head, in spite of the words I posted previously where Jesus specifically says it is wrong. ***
See, that is the problem. You have a sola scriptura problem. Your personal interpretation is in error. The issue is not with Father or Rabbi, it is with the Pharisees and the Jewish lawgivers.
***You are apparently blinded to any truth I might illuminate, which is why I pray for you. ***
Your post arrogantly mocked me, if I recall correctly. Some prayer.
***Jesus had already built His church, and paid the price with His blood. ***
As it states in Matthew 25, and through Matthew and much of Luke, you are still responsible for your deed.
***I do mock your groups claims of exclusivity and claims of the power to deny salvation. ***
The exclusivity comes from Jesus and the claim to deny salvation is a lie and you cannot post evidence for it.
***Only God holds those keys, and Jesus is His name! ***
Jesus gave the keys to Peter. Did that not make it past your Biblical editors? If so, I can provide the verses.
***You blaspheme the Holy Spirit living in me with your judgment.***
I cannot Judge you, regardless of my opinion of your posts. I do not know that you have the Holy Spirit living in you and I do not blaspheme Him. Certainly, the fruits of the Holy Spirit are many. Lying is not one of them.
