The first time I saw this I figured you were just having a bad moment so I let it go. Obviously I was wrong, you really believe this. If this is the EO position it explains a little about how the muslims came to your lands and dominated your church for centuries. You didn't have enough clergy to convert them.
Matt. 10:32 "Therefore whoever confesses Me before men, him I will also confess before My Father who is in heaven."
That is so ignorant, wmfights, it's pathetic. That tells me you never even bothered to read the history of what happened. That doesn't surprise me. Who needs anything but the Bible, right? All the history God wanted us to know is in it, right?
Matt. 10:32 "Therefore whoever confesses Me before men, him I will also confess before My Father who is in heaven."
The bible is clear that the Commission was given to the apostles and from them to their successors, those appointed in the church to be the elders. It was never given to the laity.
Protestant insistance that it was is in fact contra-biblical, just as "sola scriptura" superstition is.
