To the contrary....you prove to me where catholics wrote it.
I find nothing in my Greek NT or my NASB Bible that says this was penned by, Paul a Roman Catholic Church member. Nor is there anything like that from Peter, James, or any of the other writers of the Bible.
The rcc officialy recognized their bible at Trent...some 1200 years after the early church had recognized the canon (367, though the bulk of it was in place well before then) as we have it today. Seems like you guys were a bit late to the party!!!
The burden's on you to prove otherwisw.
btw...I don't buy Mary statues or other graven images from the Vatican's website....so none of my $$$$ is going to Rome!
Rome had no canon til Trent (an uncomfortable truth)
That hole that you showed....I had NO IDEA that Martin Luther was a well driller....amazing!!
They did elect Obola...twice. Need I say more?
“Yes, the work of redemption was finished at Calvary, but God’s Omnipresent nature makes the event of the crucifixion a present reality. And not only a reality but a present and continuing work.”
No. Paul does not see Christ as crucified today.
No. The crucifixion is not a present reality today.
No. The crucifixion is not a continuing work.
“But when this priest had offered for all time one sacrifice for sins, he sat down at the right hand of God,and since that time he waits for his enemies to be made his footstool.”
Hebrews 10:12,13
Why is that odd to you...when you are Catholic and 100% right...it is easy to recognize Satan/100% wrong...See how easy it is??
John 10
27 My sheep listen to my voice; I know them, and they follow me.
28 I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; no one can snatch them out of my hand.
29 My Father, who has given them to me, is greater than all; no one can snatch them out of my Father's hand.
30 I and the Father are one."In one passage, Christ identifies those who are His, identifies that His gift is eternal life, states that they will never perish, says no one can take them away from Him, backs it up with the Omnipotence of the Father and bases it on his own identity as God.
"The idea that we do NOT grow in holiness, but that God merely lies to himself, and proclaims filthy sinners to be “saved,” is a Satanic idea."
We grow as Christians. Positionally, when we come to entrust ourselves to Christ for eternal life, we are no longer sinners. The debt has been paid utterly. Our nature as sinners has changed and we are baptized into Christ. His righteousness becomes the believers. On earth, as long as we have the life of Adam in us, we commit sins. The believer also has a new nature. Positionally, the believer is seated in the heavenlies with Christ. I refer you to Ephesians. A wonderful book.
You post as if you do not know or understand the wonderful grace of God, not the meaning of salvation, nor the cross.
Christ was sacrificed once for all...and then He sat down at the right hand of the father..HIS WORK COMPLETED
See because God was omniscient He knew who that sacrifice was for and marked their debt PAID IN FULL on Calvary
The Catholic Church hadn’t been established at that tine.
WELCOME HOME!!!!!!! Of course God used the Catholic church...no Catholic in history has EVER denied that...but the Catholics did the grunt work...wrote, hand copied, edited, salvaged, transcribed, protected, whatever...so that you could have a 100% accurate version of His book....at least acknowledge that they assisted God in His efforts to make you a Christian.....sheesh.
**I had NO IDEA that Martin Luther was a well driller**
He wasn’t. But Satan has one for Roman Catholics.
You were secretagent man from the time of your conception...your parents didn't coin the word until after you were born but that changed nothing....the name Roman Catholic was not coined at their conception, nor was secretagentman coined at yours....neither FACT changes anything
Prophesied in the Old Testament, but it was prophesied, as well, in a sense, in the new, in John chapter 2 verse 19. "Jesus said this, 'Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.'"Jesus as prophet
The resurrection of Christ from the dead was a declaration of the Sonship of Christ.
Primarily what the resurrection proved was THE COMPLETION of the work of Christ and stamps "it is finished " with an exclamation point..1 Cor .."If Christ is not risen, then our faith is in vain. We are yet in our sins, and we are of all men most miserable."
So on Easter Sunday..we do not celebrate an incomplete salvation ...but a complete one
You don't understand...I'm trying to find the Bible that Catholics didn't write...I don't have to prove that they did write....I don't want that....I want to see a Bible that you can prove they DIDN'T write
You know how we can't stand their viewpoint...
The Green’s interlinear bible has the best set of the original manuscripts that can be attained by us common folk. His commentary is not quite right on them however. It’s a lot of work....
Not just Americans, but countless billions through the centuries. I know I shouldn’t be surprised “For the gate is wide and the way is easy that leads to destruction, and those who enter by it are many.” (Matthew 7:13)
Also, no one finds the Lord by thinking clearly. Salvation is of the Lord. It’s a matter of grace. Natural, unregenerate men can’t understand spiritual matters because they are dead in trespasses and sins. The Bible says, “The natural person does not accept the things of the Spirit of God, for they are folly to him, and he is not able to understand them because they are spiritually discerned.” (1 Corinthians 2:14). God has to regenerate a man and remove the scales from his eyes before he can begin to spiritually discern truth.
I know a lady, an educated lady, who was baptized as a girl and had been active in church for sixty years. Her husband served as a foreign missionary and she had been a choir member and Sunday School teacher. A few years ago during a service she was finally saved. Of course all of her friends and family believed she had been saved all along, but she knew she had never been saved at all. She says heard the gospel for the very first time that day. Of course she had heard and read the words many times before. And she had shared them with others. But that day it was different because she heard it at the heart level and knew God was at work.
You really think so?
The Christian church had their Bible long before that.
Yeah, they barely existed before 1545...all those silly Cathedrals, Popes, Basilicas, libraries,Monastaries, HAND COPIED BIBLES, it wasn't until Father Luther came along that we got things right...PATHETIC
Nope. Case dismissed.....
