Reading your posts makes me feel like taking a shower.
Where does the law say you can only provide the punishment if you have not sinned?
“Discuss the issues all you want, but do not make it personal.”
And, as always, protestants are allowed to make vicious personal slurs, while any defense against these slurs by Catholics is immediately slammed.
I think your refusal to admit your bias is worse than the bias itself. Although, down the years, your bias has led you to support theological leftism against the truth on many occasions, so maybe the bias really is worse.
When I see people so stupid and blind that they've swallowed the above quoted Satanic delusion I always pray that like Balaam they have an ass smarter than they are to bring them up short before they reach the damnation their love of lies is leading them to.
The satanic delusion is called the Roman Catholic “Church.”
The Whore in scarlet and purple.
Just look at the vatican.
“Where does the law say you can only provide the punishment if you have not sinned?”
It doesn’t. Go back and read the entire context of my post to you.
“The Whore in scarlet and purple.
Just look at the vatican.”
Luther’s propaganda. The Vatican has nothing whatsoever to do with that passage in Revelation 17.
Every competent Bible scholar is in agreement.
I did read it. Both should have been punished and Jesus should have let her be stoned. He violated the law.
“...Jesus should have let her be stoned. He violated the law.”
Then you missed the point as badly as the Pharisees did.
He didn’t stop them from stoning her! Their own consciences did! That was the point! No one is without sin EXCEPT Jesus, AND HE WAS NOT OBLIGED TO STONE HER, SINCE HE KNEW WHAT THEY WERE UP TO!
“Every competent Bible scholar is in agreement.”
With what? That the Vatican is the Harlot of Revelation 17, or that that view is nothing more than Luther’s propaganda against the Pope?
Because if you’re going to suggest that Revelation 17 is about the RCC, you’ve got a whole lot of other exegetical issues that would argue otherwise.
If you really believe that I missed the point than you were not following the whole conversation. Go back and read it from the beginning.
It has nothing to do with Luther.
Luther was in the dark like every other catholic.
The catholic ‘church’ and every other nicolaitan pagan humanist ‘church,’ including the vast majority of so-called protestant ‘churches’ are the Whore and her daughters.
Immersed in paganism, and humanism, and rejecting all that Yeshua commanded. The broad path.
“The catholic ‘church’ and every other nicolaitan pagan humanist ‘church,’ including the vast majority of so-called protestant ‘churches’ are the Whore and her daughters.”
Well, that’s a really wrong view of that passage, but I don’t have the time to go into it now. John wasn’t writing about events 2,000 years in the future: he was writing to seven churches in Asia about things that were about to happen. That alone takes the discussion out of the realm of the view you’ve shared.
Ok; post a picture of the present ones.
“It has nothing to do with Luther.”
Well actually, it does. Luther was the first to associate the Pope with “the antichrist.” His teaching became so popular, that the Roman Catholic Church began losing membership. A Jesuit by the name of Francesco Ribera was commissioned to come up with an eschatology that would effectively counter Luther’s. He invented “Futurism”, and that became the basis for Darby’s dispensationalism, which was made popular by Schofield.
But the truth is both Luther and Ribera were wrong. Revelation isn’t about the Pope and it isn’t about the future as we know it.
Uh huh....
They 'changed' NOTHING!
The letter in Acts 15 was written to GENTILES.
The word 'christian' can apply to Jews as well; but the LETTER was written to NON-Jews.
INCOMPLETE???
What the HELL does THAT mean?
If they elect me Pope, I would be a great one, I’m great at everything that I do!!!
