Then why say such things as this;
in regards to OT?
Alexandrian canon you say?
Philo, from Alexandria, (20 BC to 50 AD) never once quoted from what Jerome called Apocrypha.
Throw Jerome under the bus, along with Athanasius who was bishop of Alexandria, since his listing (prior to Jerome) does not include OT Apocrypha, which term (Apocrypha) Jerome used in regards to these books in dispute.
The one mention of Baruch in Athanasius' listing can as well be interpreted to possibly be in regards to Lamentations (of Jeremiah), being as Baruch was allegedly something of a secretary to that prophet (Jeremiah).
Flavius Josephus pretty much settled the argument in 70 AD. There are hosts of others...with the evidence being bulletproof that there were disputes from early on.
The evidence which can be presumed of Philo, and then a bit later by the documented experience of Melito of Sardis (as that comes to us through Origen and Eusebius) does not indicate that there was anything like an "Alexandrian canon" of OT which differed from what the Jews of Jerusalem (you know, the VERY JEWS whom Christ presented Himself before as sacrifice to beat all?) knew as their own corpus of Holy Writ.
You make lots of statements, presenting incredibly weak arguments, then say such as;
The "beauty of the Catholic faith" as you put it --- I understand perfectly what you mean by that, but if it is not delusional (in those parts which Reformers rejected) then at the least the parts regarding devotions and prayers directed towards "Mary", along with the office of singular papacy itself (for Rome, Alone) are most certainly NOT Apostolic.
I've seen all the arguments, thousands of times by now. The Roman Catholic apologetic for such things as Marionism and the papacy, sucks eggs (generally speaking) more often than not. I could provide examples...
It looks 'good' perhaps to those blinded by confirmation bias, but otherwise rides the short bus (scholarly speaking).
As for those two items of theological consideration, a passage which you just quoted,
Remind them of these things, charging them before the Lord not to strive about words to no profit, to the ruin of the hearers.
does well apply -- to yourself, and every single other [Roman] Catholic here at FR who preaches the RCC instead of the Gospel of Christ.
So yes, I do hope that other 'Catholics' do as you said;
BECAUSE I'M FED UP to the gills with Roman Catholic, man-garbage theology. The commentary engaged in effort to support the tangled up messes (mistaken for "beauty") are EVEN WORSE!!!
Oh, and "have a nice day".
Amen!
