Luke 10:16
‘Whoever listens to you listens to me, and whoever rejects you rejects me, and whoever rejects me rejects the one who sent me.’

So these things you call "made up" flow from the mandate Christ gave to His Church. Not Biblical? Of course they're Biblical -- in this sense: they come from the reality of the Church doing what it needs to to doing order to teach, govern, and sanctify.

Just because they are in the bible doesn't make them biblical...

Luk 10:16 He that heareth you heareth me; and he that despiseth you despiseth me; and he that despiseth me despiseth him that sent me.
Luk 10:17 And the seventy returned again with joy, saying, Lord, even the devils are subject unto us through thy name.
Luk 10:18 And he said unto them, I beheld Satan as lightning fall from heaven.
Luk 10:19 Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you.
Luk 10:20 Notwithstanding in this rejoice not, that the spirits are subject unto you; but rather rejoice, because your names are written in heaven.

Is there anyone in your religion who has the power to tread on scorpians and serpents without injury??? How about do your clergy have all power over all the power of the enemy??? I certainly hope you said no...

In which case it is abundantly clear that these verses don't apply to you, your religion or anyone you know...
