sorry about saying that you were of a denomination...as an individual interpreter of scripture, you are pretty much on your own....whatever you say....you believe....never mind the 2,000 ywars of learned men and women who have studied scripture endlessly and have come to intelligeng conclusions....many of these people have devoted their entire lives to this end and you seem to feel that you can do it better....maybe you can, who am I to judge, but if I had to bet my spiritual life on it, and I do, I'd stick with fathers of the church..like Aquinas ....
Stop right there. I, as a Christian, allow the Holy Spirit to interpret Scripture, not myself and certainly not men as Catholicism does.
I have posted this information to you many times, so please stop thinking you can read my mind and then make false statements about me.
Interesting, after "apologizing" you then make another false statement about me. Kinda like leftist politicians "apologize"
...never mind the 2,000 ywars of learned men and women who have studied scripture endlessly and have come to intelligeng conclusions
Yes, I imagine those that wrote the Catholic version of Christainity did it with their intelligeng. That is an excellent word to describe those that "interpret" for Catholic Church doctrine.
....maybe you can, who am I to judge
Oh like judging that I am a Protestant, that I am an "individual interpreter of scripture" and that I am a member of a denomination etc?
You seem to have no problem judging others, although incorrectly. It's kinda hard to see around that beam, huh?
...if I had to bet my spiritual life on it, and I do, I'd stick with fathers of the church..like Aquinas ....
*Sigh*
Big mistake IMO, they will not lead you to salvation.
Again, I prefer the Biblical approach to understanding what God wants...through the Holy Spirit's interpretation.
I'm amazed that anyone would bet there eternal salvation on mere men. Or anything for that matter. Just WOW.
