I recognize that you do not accept Paul's apostolic authority, but you're out on a limb.

There are now hundreds of Hebrew NT papiri that date older than any known Greek. And all of them with a Vatican pedigree that goes back centuries

Rood’s garbage isn’t even a gospel; it’s not good news at all. It’s nothing but a tired old retread of the Judiazer heresy brought back by a charlatan whose only theological training came from two serial rapists at the The Way International cult.

And it’s believed only by people who A: have itching ears and an obsession with convincing themselves that they’re smarter than everyone else, or B: Haven’t even read Scripture in ANY language.

You recognize nothing of the kind. Where have I ever denied the truths that Paul taught through the inspiration of the Holy Spirit? I've posted reams of Scripture from his writings - most that you either ignore or twist so badly you have him contradicting himself. In fact, you are the one claiming that he wasn't writing Scripture, not me.

Prove it! Have you actually seen them or are you just believing whatever Gordon and Rood say? There are THOUSANDS of Greek manuscript copies of entire NT books. Are you going to ever answer my question about why the Holy Spirit would inspire Hebrew language autographs when Greek was the language in use in most of the world at that time? Do you realize that many of the Jews back then didn't even know Hebrew? Will you address my question about why you imply God could not preserve His word and ensure the truth was preached throughout the whole world?

Continue to pretend you have secret knowledge and only your little cult will be saved in the end, but I will sleep soundly because I know whom I have believed, and I am convinced that he is able to guard what I have entrusted to him until that day. Still praying for you!

It always amazes me how easily some people fall into cults. Like Scripture says, they will not tolerate sound doctrine, but according to their own desires, will multiply teachers for themselves because they have an itch to hear what they want to hear. They want to be tickled with secrets and flattering words so that they can feel special and above everyone else. They are really going to be having a rude awakening some day.

Absolutely.

Keeps us in good communication with the Father, just like with any relationship.

However, the relationship is established when we do the initial confessing of our sin and of Christ as our savior and we turn to Christ in repentance, and it’s then that the righteousness of Christ is credited to our account.

Notice how the trolls tag the other trolls so they will know to come in and gang up on them.

I notice that when someone cannot type some valid stuff to make their point; they will often whine; to an uncaring world; that they are being picked on.


It does not garner much sympathy for their plight; except in like minded CAUCUS threads.

Having a concensus in doctrine and defending it is not trolling.

Love means never having to say you're a troll.

Yes, there’s a lot of consensus among the 10 or 20 thousand protestant denominations, lol.

Nice claim; it shuts down replies quite well; but lurkers are left wondering...

Where's the list??

That is true, but i wonder if Peter added the above just to kind of pacify Paul, I think Paul was easily offended.

Well; he DID write Galatians 5:12!

The church I comndemn didn’t write it, they hid it from the world, and in so doing saved it from destruction.

And, apparently; it is STILL 'hidden'!

A a third century papyrus copy of the original gospel of John is hardly “made up.”

Oh?

How does one KNOW that it is a COPY?

I won’t waste my time clicking on the satan bait you posted.

If you can't tell a book by it's cover; how can a person tell SATAN BAIT from a mere link address?

The apostles, including Peter and Paul, definitely did not consider their letters to be scripture.

Golly; then what DID they consider them to be??


Colossians 4:16

After this letter has been read to you, see that it is also read in the church of the Laodiceans 
and that you in turn read the letter from Laodicea and that you in turn read the letter from Laodicea.





1 Thessalonians 5:27 

I charge you before the Lord to have this letter read to all the brothers and sisters.

The three words “the rest of” were obviously added long after the apostles were dead.

They WERE??

What proof do you offer to prove this assertion?


Your claim sounds a bit like Eve's 'knowledge' found in Genesis 3:2


 ‘You must not eat fruit from the tree that is in the middle of the garden, and you must not touch it, or you will die.’”

How'd she know it was in the 'middle'??


‘You must not eat fruit from the tree that is in the middle of the garden, and you must not touch it, or you will die.’
