R. C. Sproul's popular lecture on Protestant Reformer Martin Luther.
Now, run along back to your two or three post threads.
It's a prog-rock album about the life of Martin Luther...
Here are two songs. Prepare to have your head explode.
Incidentally, I'm Catholic.
So? Are we supposed to be impressed? You were asked other questions -- but still avoided those. That's one of the hallmarks of "troll".
Yet somehow I'm supposed (and the rest of the forum, also?) to care what such as yourself has to say?
The main purpose expressions of your opinions serve on this forum is to highlight through your own ongoing, active demonstration what religious bigotry looks like.
Forum rules preclude myself from providing further explicit description of what "light" (more like lack of off light) I "consider" the likes of yourself.
I only care about what God thinks of me.
Heretics, muslims, etc? Couldn't give a care for what they think of me.
So what's that you were saying about "heretics"?
Say it louder. Maybe somebody will hear you.
“Singular papacy?”
Where did you come up with that?
P.S. I now delete your freepmails to me before I even open them.
What do you mean "where did I come up with that?"
Are you so ignorant of history I must teach it to you?
The short explanation:
At one point, most any bishop (even far beyond the Latin Church itself) could be referred to, and at times were referred to as being 'popes'.
There was at one time numerous "See's of Peter", etc., too, if one were to wish to limit things down to 'patriarchate' level which considerations as for patriarchates themselves were something of a 'development' within the wider Church -- the church having not been organized in that way from the beginning...
Did you not know these things?
You persuade me that you will hear nothing.
Yet others may hear what I say. I speak towards them...in hope.
He doesn't have to be - it's plain to see in your near daily threads finding fault with Pope Francis and your accusations that he is a "Protestant" and "heretic". Your OWN words show you tend to be shifty and devious, never directly answering questions as well as being against (AKA "anti") Pope Francis and EVERY pope since Pius X. Are you now going to deny that?
There have been a few good popes after Pope St Pius X. There have been some bad ones also, including the current one.
St. Pius X would have excommunicated Bergolio for his heresies.
Why do you bother posting your opinions on threads that are NOT about Catholicism and then whine when somebody counters your arguments? Besides, you "attack" the faith of those who are non-Catholic Christians pretty regularly here. Is this not hypocrisy on your part?
Why would O’Connor’s hit piece on Martin Luther be a better resource than Luther’s OWN, IN CONTEXT work unless, of course, you were only interested in criticizing him? I already gave you the reference place to look them up for yourself rather than be given only excerpts and snippets. Do I need to redo that?
I’m past expecting honest interaction with certain people. Their side-stepping and devious red herring tossing are the only way they know how to act. Sandal-shaking is all we owe them now.
I’ve posted numerous quotes of Luther, in full context.
Pretty great! Thanks.
The Door
Sometimes comes a moment when there is no escape
A man by candlelight reads: “The just shall live by faith”
And a rushing ray of light comes and hits him at the core
I will write my words upon the door
History is hinged on him playing of the role
The dawn was coming after the dark night of the soul
The simple act has changed our world forever more
I will write my words upon the door
I will write my words upon the door
Martin saw the jailer with the woman in her bed
With simple words of life he struck the seventh head
The witness stands before the dragon and the whore
I will write my words upon the door
I will write my words upon the door
Don’t forget the *blistering* guitar solo. ;-)
