Not quite. He does not communicate to us through some man-made corporation. If you understand the language of Elohim, it is very clear that:
Exodus 15:2; Psalm 18:2; Psalm 27:1; Psalm 62:1; Psalm 62:2; Psalm 62:6; Yod Hey (Yah) in Hebrew is the Name of Elohim. Yah became man ( becoming the Pesach Lamb and shed His blood) for our salvation.
Elohim YHvH has communicated with us through His Word.
shalom b'SHEM Yah'shua HaMashiach Adonai
He has communicated to us from outside our time-space continuum.
Whether it be three and a half dimensions or eleven dimensions.
He said he would send another like himself ( Ru'ach HaKodesh )
to assist us in understanding His Holy Word.
"Yah has become my salvation" is the Name that most refer to as Jesus.
The name Yah'shua means "Yah has become my salvation".See:
YHvH
Psalm 62:7; Psalm 118:14; Psalm 119:174; Isaiah 12:2; Isaiah 46:13;
Isaiah 49:6; Isaiah 51:5; Isaiah 56:1; Isaiah 19:20; Isaiah 43:3;
Isaiah 43:11; Isaiah 45:21; Isaiah 49:26; Isaiah 60:16; Hosea 13:4
vav represents man in Hebrew;
Vav is the number six in Hebrew.
The letter "Hey" is the breath of Elohim. (Genesis 17:5)
Man was created on the sixth day.
Man works for six days
There are six millennia before the coming of the Messiah.
The beast is identified with the symbol of man "666"
When Elohim added a "Hey" to Abram and Sarai's names
making them known as Abraham and Sarah by breathing
the Ru'ach Elohim into them.
I’m sorry they did that. I don’t know people who personally attack Catholics like that. We try to explain differences in dogma here on FR, but I doubt if any of us go in any attack mode when we see those ‘wicked’ Catholics, LOL.
>>You also have an opportunity to be as smarmy with her as you have been with me. Your choice.<<
Let me apologize if my comments came off as smarmy. They truly were not meant that way. I sincerly apologize for any offense I have given you. It was truly unintended.
Sorry.
What I’m saying is that it’s hard to ‘dig’ into what the scripture is saying by just hearing it in church. Yes, I’ve been to a Catholic mass. I was also brought up Episcopalian so I’m familiar with liturgical churches. We have communion and that, too, is very meaningful to us.
(Any number of small New England towns in the 1800's).
I apologize if I wrote any thing offensive to you.
I’m not really sure where it is, but let me apologize.
Nah, don’t need one.
Peter had nothing to do with the Popery, Petronski. He was a pebble, remember? The ROCK was Jesus Christ.

Collaboration? No, I doubt that. That’s not been my personal experience.
Your interpreation of it, perhaps.
Any "brothers" of Christ were, at best, sons of Joseph by an unnamed widow.
That is not a quibble.
Catholics, with their sneaky use of such things as reason, present a serious danger to lurkers. Catholics are so dangerous that they cannot be engaged on the grounds of reason.
Instead there MUST be a kind of mock combat, a play, something fundamentally dishonest and unreal, in which Catholics and their arguments are not addressed but called names and mocked. If this were not done, the vicious, evil, repulsive, Catholics, with their notorious masochism and anxiety about sex might lure unsuspecting lurkers into their clutches.
Consequently, we don't even have to address the actual dogma of the Church. In general we should avoid any thoughtful engagement with them. Reason is not our strong suit after all, but we excel at abuse, mockery, and especially at the kind of endurance required to make the same baseless charges and mockeries over and over again.
But do not think for a minute that we do this with any cooperation among ourselves or with any malice in our hearts. We are only doing it for the poor lurkers, who without our constant vigilance might actually think about what the Catholics say.
Like Screwtape, we glorify noise, especially because it hinders thought. If the lurkers ever started thinking about what the Catholics say, if we ever let up in our efforts, why, well, who knows what might happen. They might get a clear view of the issues, and that could lead anywhere!
So we must keep up the mockery, the repetition, the same old charges and never give the lurkers a chance to think.
We're doing it for the children, I mean the lurkers.
You said: Your [interpretation] of it, perhaps.
Nope. Catholics don’t need to resort to personal magiterical interpretations, we have almost 2,000 of history, Holy Scripture, Sacred Tradtion, and writings of the early fathers to verify it.
That word is offensive: popery.
Peter was the first Pope.
You are not the only Protestant on FR. Some of them collaborate. And by the standard set on a recent thread, it is up to them to prove their innocence.
I remember that anti-Catholic lie, yes.
(Sound familiar?)

I understand your nasty reply was interrogatory. I guess you know how to play the "nasty" game.
