god rules heaven. he is in charge, on Earth, of those who obey Him, everyone else, though He created them, if they reject His teaching, and His will, are on their own.
This Pope is right for our time, as it is whom the bishops chose.
Well people turn back to the catechism and true teaching after all of this?
Will Americans turn to the founding principals after BO?
People right now want to be bad. They want birth control, abortion, the blurring of sex identity, materialism.
they want it.
god is there fro those who want to follow Him, those who are without representation, at least in this country, if not within their religion. god doesn’t abandon us.
Surely you jest. There is the real Pope, and then there is this clown imposter.
Finally, a consistent RC. Conservative evangelicals are censured for relying on unchanging Scripture as our supreme standard since it is subject to interpretation, and instead we are told we need a church to lead and define things for us, under a supreme pope whom they look to for leadership.
Then the interpretation begins. They debate how many binding teachings there are, as well as their meaning. Conservatives interpret past historical teachings as being contrary to how their church interprets it in modern V2 teaching, while liberals interpret the latter as supporting them.
They thus look to lower levels of the magisterium to interpret them, which is manifest in word and in deed, and each side interprets the non-infallible words and actions of the pope as being consistent or inconsistent with church teaching.
And while one side trusts that Christ's promise to lead and preserve the church means that the bishops choice for a pope is that of the Holy Spirit's, others deny that.
And as RCs in general are conditioned to look to men as the supreme authority for their faith, so they follow men, which can mean even torturing fellow RCs in obedience to the pope, or taking part in interfaith prayer meetings with Prots as per papal interpretation of modern church interpretation of past teaching.
With the overall fruit of Rome being manifestly libeal, versus those who hold most strongly to the fundamental Reformation view of holding Scripture as the wholly inspired authoritative and accurate word of God.
Christians must stand with the unchanging transcendent supreme standard for obedience and testing and establishing truth claims as the wholly Divinely inspired and assured, Word of God. As it is abundantly evidenced to be.
And which testifies (Lk. 24:27,44, etc.) to writings of God being recognized and established as being so (essentially due to their unique and enduring heavenly qualities and attestation), and thus they materially provide for a canon of Scripture (as well as for reason, the church, etc.).
