The early Christians are unanimous that you are wrong on this Quix. Your johnny come lately false gospel cannot silence the witness of the early Christians.
That might be a fair description of some of y’all’s rabid cliques.
We disagree on scripture interpretation. I think your whole idea of sola scripture is a demonic false gospel.
I don't accept your biases, and you don't accept mine, so the only common denominator we have is the writings of the early Christians. That's the only way we can measure which interpretations today have merit, and which are false gospels.
I look forward to our continued discussion in Christian charity.
Making useful debate futile. The best you can do is point to the empty house.
...pots and kettles, motes and beams, stones and glass houses...
The BIBLICALLY CONGRUENT witnesses of the early centuries are decidedly anti-Vatican structure and dogma.
I did purchase some books on the early writings. I haven’t gotten into them yet.
I think this incredible tome the Catechism is supposed to be in the que before those.
And the Fatima research documenting that it was a fairly standard UFO set of incidents is still to be completed as well.
That’s a VERY hazardous and unnecessary, unBiblical either/or.
Of course, they must have been congruent with the OT, since the Church did not set the canon of scripture for a while, right?
And the correct prophecies of Fatima were from aliens...Careful Quix, you're ascribing to the devil that which comes from God. It seems to me that's a pretty dangerous ground to occupy.
There's plenty online. Just google your pet hypothesis along with the string "early church fathers." Like "sola scipture early church fathers."
I'm going to visit my boys at Scout Camp, so I won't be back online till much later.
That’s a grossly WRONG assertion, yet again.
Considering the evidence first, would be wiser.
NOPE.
Just RC’s putting meanings in Christ’s mouth that weren’t there.
In scripture you see that Paul was the only one sent to the un-circumcised. No corporation was formed. How does YHvH define "church" i.e.Ekklesia ? Or is it all those called out by YHvH ? Was the "church" started at the YHvH commanded or Did the "church" exist earlier ? Using the LXX as a guide we see that the Ekklesia You may believe that YHvH created a corporation based in Rome,

Peter was sent only to the circumcised.A study of the word "church", in the Koine Greek : Ekklesia.

Apparently you are guided by man-made tradition.
that He may be with you forever;
because it does not see Him or know Him,
but you know Him because He abides with you and will be in you.
I’m colorblind. Can’t see blue or red.
That’s convenient in some contexts! LOL . . . Thanks for the insight.
Though you must be jesting . . . I’ve never heard of a true color blindness like that.
thx thx
