LOL. That is funny.
Does that include homo marriages, Bob?
Hell is not funny. Do you even believe in it?
It's your comment. If you can't stand by it....you know what they say on the playground.....put up or hush up.
Do you deny Mary was the mother of Jesus Christ?
No.
Do you deny Jesus Christ is God?
No.
Yes or no answers will suffice.
My turn.
Do you believe Mary was the mother of God the father?
Do you believe that God the father is God?
What is the correct translation of Theotokos?
What is the significance of the title Theotokos?
Is Theotokos important for what it says about Mary or what it says about Jesus?
Mind reading much? New hobby?
It's called an argument from silence.
I'll repeat If you'd read the Bible then you would know the answer to your nonsense question.
I was commenting on what you said about Luther. Of course, hell is real and if people have not accepted Jesus as Lord and Savior that is where they are headed.
You mean the seven books of the old testament that the Jewish people don't accept? The books they officially rejected in 100 AD at the Council of Jamnia? Yeah, that was totally Martin Luther.
Which books did Luther allegedly remove?
One point to consider, I think it’s worth considering at any rate: With all due respect to Jewish people, do we Christians want the Jews deciding what should be in our Bible or should Christians decide what’s in the Christian Bible?
Again, just something to consider IMO.
G’nite all!
Agreed. Mary is the Theotokos because of what it says about Jesus. That Jesus was fully God from conception. If you read the creed that include Theotokos, it says that Mary was the Theotokos, with regard to the manhood.
Theotokos is properly translated as "God-Bearer". As in Mary bore the manhood of God.
Mother of God is totally inappropriate for two reasons. First, because it inverts the order and puts the bearer before the God. Second, because people use the term "Mother of God" as an honorific for Mary, perverting the purpose of the title. Theotokos is not to honor Mary, but to proclaim the truth about Jesus.
With all due respect to all your hard work, if you put all that in for the benefit of us Catholics, we don’t recognize the KJV as a valid interpretation of Scripture. God bless you for your good intentions, honestly, I mean it: that must have been a lot of work.
What makes you think I don’t read the Bible? The real one that is.
Ping for later! Gotta go...
Your posts for starters.
I'll bet none of y'all have heard of them. You can thank Luther for that.
Your question about homo marriage. Man shall not lay down with another man (homosexuality). It is not just a sin but it is an abomination (great sin). Anyone familiar with the Bible (even the ones without your seven books) would know that is forbidden.
When I meet him in Heaven, I will.
Why should I care what the Jewish people don't accept? They didn't, and still don't accept their Savior.
