How about Sts Michael, Gabriel and Raphael?
Why are they saints and not Lucifer?
They all believed and were in the presence of God.
2 Thessalonians 2:15 literal Greek translation…
“So then, brethren, be constantly standing firmly, and be holding fast to the teachings which were delivered to you to be passed on to others, which you were taught either orally or through our letter.”
The Thessalonians were taught by Paul and by the Scriptures.
These were not made up traditions.
I know what it is.
A false definition of God’s clear declaration of sainthood.
Michael and ol gabe are angels and not humans. Not saints. They are servants of believers.
From Luther’s testimony, he is a saint.
So far I can’t see evidence you are a saint ebb, though the Gospel has been shared with you over and over.
Yes, he was, AMPU.
"And Satan entered into Judas, who was surnamed Iscariot, one of the twelve. [Luke 22:3] |
Don't let Satan enter you!
All Canonizations post Vatican II are suspect, to put it kindly.
Satan can’t enter a believer, who has been sealed by the Holy Spirit.
So now you're claiming Sts. Michael, Gabriel and Raphael are not "true believers"?
What a tangled web you've weaved.
So far I can’t see evidence you are a saint ebb, though the Gospel has been shared with you over and over.
I don't care what you think about me; only what God thinks about me.
If you believe that, I've got some oceanfront property in Arizona for sale.
Nothing is "sealed" until death, Judgement, Heaven or Hell.
—> So now you’re claiming Sts. Michael, Gabriel and Raphael are not “true believers”?
No ebb. I pointed out they are not human, cannot have salvation, etc.
—> only what God thinks about me.
He wants you to be saved, according to Scripture.
—> Nothing is “sealed” until death, Judgement, Heaven or Hell
Do you even read what declares in Scripture?
😀
“How Can You Canonize Without Bonafide Miracles?”
Be LGBTQ+?
Saturday Night Live...
Sarducci criticized a new Pope by claiming that "two of his miracles were card tricks."
Do chubby chasers ( guys who are only into plus sized women ) have a patron saint? Just asking for a friend.
Here is the Cliff’s Notes version that ebby is trying to promote: St. Pope JPII started naming more Saints during the 80s. JPII had his hand in Vatican II. Therefore, all is invalid including the Sainthood of JPII.
Thank you very much!
Another bit of advice. Don’t correct ebby’s falsehoods. It only leads to his conflating your statements to support his outlandish ideas.
Even that judging of Judas, is against what Jesus taught. Judge not, lest you be judged. For all we know, he repented when he threw the coins away, and was murdered. Not many people who hung themselves, have I heard of their bellies bursting assunder...spilling out. I wasn’t there. I have a hard enough time not judging say....NotsoPresident Biden, and MANY MANY others in public office. Judging who is a Saint in the eyes of The Almighty, is way above my pay grade, and I would say every other person on Earth.
Forgive me Father for my weak mind and the hate within it..... In Jesus name, Amen.
"God in Scripture declares ALL true believers to be saints."
Your web is getting mighty tangled; don't get trapped in your own web.
You don't speak for me, oystir. You never have.
And by your testimony, you're a saint.
I've heard that horse-hockey so many times from your ilk.
Ebb will come to saving faith in Christ.
He continues to fight the savior as Saul did.
