Thanks for the info.

Now I know a little bit more.

I never made the ‘abb’ connection before. Makes sense.

"Spoken like a true Pharisee catching sight of a poor publican."

No, actually, Elsie, that was Jesus Christ speaking, talking to all human beings.

(Keep on studying, there, Elsie, keep on studying!)

You ARE one; right?

Or maybe just a cleverly designed chatbot.

I have detected some very Eliza like responses from you.

[Songcraft]

Wow, that was quick!   That link you provided here for the BibleHub "New Living Translation" version of Matthew 23:9, as a source proof text for the term "Spiritual Father", has already removed the word "Spiritual" there, just this evening, from that obviously erroneous translation you tried to use here as a serious reference!

Well, better late than never!

[Songcraft]

Weird!

[Songcraft]

I believe you owe Mrs. Don-o a very big apology!

Oh? For what?

For trying to pawn off the ultra-liberal, politically-correct, gender-clobbered, based-on-a-very-loose-paraphrase ("The Living Bible"), highly-questionable (by Protestants, Catholics, and Orthodox Christians), "New Living Translation", as a serious, accurate source for an honest, truthful Bible reference.

(You do believe in honesty, don't you?)

At least it was based on SOMETHING!

The way it's written:

 

Galatians 4:4-5

But when the set time had fully come, God sent his Son, born of a woman, born under the law, ⁵ to redeem those under the law, that we might receive adoption to sonship.

Elsie if a rc used any Bible translation instead of that cursed catechism they would be saved born again Christians and not worried about silly little word games.

[boatbums]

That "Untier of Knots" gets me every time! What???

I'd be curious what "Resplendant car" means. Also, "Morning Star" is suspect since it was Satan who was named that (see Isaiah 14:12).

Holding onto dead body parts is disgusting.

Idolizing them is very seriously violating God’s commands in many areas and very dangerous.

There can be spiritual attachments to such items and worshiping them, or *venerating* them if you prefer, is venturing onto very dangerous spiritual territory.

[Mom MD]

Venerating is worshipping. Do not let them get away with their word games...

[ebb tide]

Holding onto dead body parts is disgusting.

That's not what Joseph of Arimathea thought on Good Friday.

But then again, who pays attention to Scripture?

[metmom]

Burying a body is NOT the same as preserving and *venerating* aka worshiping, body parts of dead people. Joseph of Arimathea buried Christ, he did not preserve the body and put it on display for gawkers.

Can’t even say *Nice try* for that one.

It was pretty weak.

thanks for posting...I see the anti-catholics are going wild on this thread...LOL...
