Reformed theology appeals to people who at some point in their lives were "not very nice." Perhaps they were ostracized by others, constantly in trouble, and on the wrong side of the law, literally lost in their misfortune, and someone came to them and said "Jesus loves youIt is possible that this is the first time anyone has ever told those words, that even they can be loved. So, it is no wonder they were drawn to it.wow, you are so absolutely correct! By the age of 7, when I came to Jesus, I was such a derelict---- gosh, I carried double cap pistols, shot up the cow pasture, hated school, said I was sick when I wasn't, and got beat up my brother. And I bet many people here were worse.

"To name but a few." But the Church's greatest sin is in not accepting the gospel of Calvin and recognizing the inherent superiority of the election of his followers and their sinlessness. So in reality your petulant little anti-Catholic tirade is all about you. That really affirms Matthew 20:16!

Again it is Paul who says this...I want scripture where Jesus calls him apostle...God sent him, true, but when Jesus talked to him on the road to Damascus, he was not called to be an apostle by Jesus.
In cp. 9 vs:15-16 (Acts) Jesus calls Paul who was not even baptized when he was knocked off his horse "an instrument of mine to carry my name before the gentiles"
Thanks to all that answered but I give you Gods word as to what Paul was. It was not an apostle, but an instrument. Paul was Gods instrument not an apostle, right out of Jesus mouth to Ananias...
If anyone can find that false, please let me know..

well since the bible is the true and inspired word of God, and in it God explains through Paul, that He has ordained from the beginning Paul's place in the Plan of Salvation--- so... is Paul a liar? is God a liar? Do you not accept all of the NT as the inspired word of God?

is the bible the inspired word or not? just parts of it? how do you pick and choose which parts?
Paul saw and was taught of Christ
1 Cor 15:
that he appeared to Cephas, then to the Twelve. 7 After that he appeared to James, then to all the apostles.
8 Last of all, as to one born abnormally, he appeared to me. 9 For I am the least 4 of the apostles, not fit to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God. 10 But by the grace of God I am what I am,

Obviously you don't believe Gods word...If the scripture is true, Paul was God's instrument and you put in your own word of apostle. It is you that made God a liar, by calling Paul apostle and not instrument as Jesus called him...so twist yourself in a pretzel to make Jesus say what he didn't say...your problem not mine.
I will call Paul what Jesus called him, an instrument to take the gospel to the gentiles...Who is voicing a heresy now, Jesus or you
To: goat granny
Paul says that he was called to be an apostle, predestined to be the Apostle to the Gentiles. God says this in the bible, through Paul. I didn’t make it up.

not only do they not know what the Gospel is, apparently they aren’t even sure what the scriptures are.

Citing a known sodomite and murderer as proof the Church needed reforming is not going to gain you any street cred. People with a glass Vatican should not throw stones.....

Are Paul’s epistles in the Catholic bible? Is the Catholic bible some kind of Reader’s Digest version? Are some parts considered more authentic than others? Very strange.

"Rome lies. Rome has always lied."
Thank God you are not speaking about the Catholic Church.
Now for the truth. Calvin lied. Calvinists have always lied. Calvinism requires that one first lie to oneself, then to the world, then lie about the Church and lastly lie to God. This interesting coming from one who defends a church built on forgeries and lies.
Where do you wish to begin?
THE FORGED APOSTOLIC CONSTITUTIONS
THE FORGED "APOSTOLIC CANONS"
THE FORGED LIBER PONTIFICALIS
THE CONVERSION OF CONSTANTINE
THE FORGED LETTER OF ST. PETER THE POPE SYLVESTER FORGERIES
THE FORGED "DONATION OF CONSTANTINE"
THE "SYMMACHIAN FORGERIES"
THE "FALSE DECRETALS" FORGERIES
THE FORGED DECRETUM OF GRATIAN
Lies and forgeries. The path to power and wealth.

Jesus preached the gospel long before the books we call gospels were written..
Mat 4:23 And Jesus went about all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing all manner of sickness and all manner of disease among the people.What did He preach as HIS GOSPEL
Mat 24:14 And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.
What gospel did Jesus preach?
Mar 16:15 And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.
What gospel are we to preach?
One more time..what is THE Gospel?
