And herein lies the problem, Captain. Each and every example you gave was extra-biblical. Created by men. And made into traditions and doctrines of men. And given as NECESSARY to believe. As if God said these things happened and were necessary for man to believe. How do you prove that these were given by God? It’s just man’s word saying that is so. We cannot go to God’s word for confirmation on ANY of these things. Because they aren’t IN God’s word. So that leaves you having faith in man’s word. Not God’s word. And that, my friend, is the height of arrogance and APOSTASY.
I’m just curious. Do you believe in miracles? (Are those healed at Lourdes not really healed?)
