A group of human beings getting together to tell Heaven and GOD what to do and think.
Yes, that’s Christian. lol.
No offense, FRiend, but I don’t care what Rome and her emissaries say the Bible says. I want a sound biblical case only. We don’t need councils and Roman authorities to speak because God has spoken. Supposedly infallible councils and the magisterium will lead you off the cliff. In contrast I believe in the perspicuity of Scripture - that in its essential message, it is clearly understood. The Scriptures on the subject of salvation are clear to anyone who will read the Bible.
Merry Christmas and God bless!
“But as for you, continue in what you have learned and have firmly believed, knowing from whom you learned it and how from childhood you have been acquainted with the sacred writings, which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus. All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, equipped for every good work.” (2 Timothy 3:14-17)
