The bible tells us that Mary was like all the other disciples, no less, no greater. Why should I know anything “about you”? Is the thread about you?

Where my responses are in-artful,I apologize. Accepted; I would extend the same apology to you in the same spirit.
I am also sorry that you believe as you do.
Fair enough. I would, however appreciate your responses to the half dozen statements I made in rebuttal to your previous post.

Another picture posted without context from yet another Catholic website? Very good. Does this picture even exist except as a photoshop?
Hint: the answer is that this is an unattributed or photoshopped picture from an anti Catholic website. We’ve had no experience from the anti Catholics making up pictures on this board, have we?

Paul received the Holy Ghost from the laying on of hands by Ananias, the first instance of the Holy Spirit being imparted through an ordinary believer. Of course you know that Ananias was sent to Paul through a vision of Jesus Christ. He was called a disciple. (Acts 9:10-17). Actually, Scripture is silent on his status - whether ordained or not. We also know that the Holy Spirit made examples of them a little later on, so that would lead me to believe that Ananias had a little higher position than simply an ordinary joe.
Way to stand your ground, GG. I find that so many Bible Believers (tm) really don't know what's in Scripture except for the handful of coupon clippings that they adhere to. This week, in this particular church, with this particular pastor. Next, month, all bets are off...

As 1000silverlings rightly noted, Paul is included in "The Acts of the Apostles" because...drum roll...he was an Apostle! Got it. Ananias and Sapphira are Apostles, right? How about Aeneas and Tabitha? Simon the tanner? Don't forget Cornelius - he has most of a chapter about him. Now, who can forget the Apostle (and part time Roman Emperor) Claudius?
No wonder the Reformed are declining on a daily basis across the world.

One more time. What is THE Gospel? ((((Crickets))) How many times do we have to answer this? As many times as it takes, I guess.
Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. The Gospel of Our Lord Jesus Christ. Does your KJV or your Geneva Bible not call them the Gospel?

Yalls sneaky, nasty little insult might squeak by the Moderator but won't be forgotten the next time you accuse others of stretching the envelop. Who's being the unchristian here? Are you addressing this to me? I mean, the only time I have ever gone to the mods is in dealing with the anti Catholic hater speech false oath of the KofC. I'm not the one whining, crying and stamping my little feet.

...but Rome does not equip them to articulate the Gospel of Jesus Christ. The Gospel preached by Jesus Christ. They can't teach it. They've painted themselves into a corner. How can you claim to have all kinds of special powers and authority if the simple Truth is believe The Gospel and you are saved. Things such as the treasury of merit, indulgences, purgatory, and works such as giving their church money become meaningless.
Instead what has happened is they teach dependence on them (the church). The church becomes the conduit of their salvation. As a result defense of their church becomes the same as defending their faith.
God willing, they will seek the answer elsewhere.
We know God is sovereign and God will have all He intends to have. Those that God wants at some point after hearing the question "what is The Gospel" will seek the answer. Those that want pats on the back for being faithful to their church will find out how serious their error is at the White Throne Judgment.

The very sad truth is that the original Christian Church at Rome has marched back to the law with the judaizers, forgetting the Gospel of Grace, replacing it with a system of self righteousness and traditions of men.
Fortunately, they still have the scriptures which contains the saving Gospel. God can still witness to those who have ears to listen.

I am not amused by your attempts to finesse the guidelines.
Potty language, and all references to potty language, are not tolerable on the Religion Forum.

Thanks for sharing your views, dear brother in Christ!

“Fair enough. I would, however appreciate your responses to the half dozen statements I made in rebuttal to your previous post.”
Mark, I believe our positions are clear enough, and one of us is wrong,yet there is, of course, a wideness in God’s mercy, and no doubt He will continue to work in us. In Christian love, therefore, I think it wise to heed Proverbs: “When there are many words, transgression is unavoidable, But he who restrains his lips is wise.”

Instead what has happened is they (Roman Catholic church) teach dependence on them (the church). The church becomes the conduit of their salvation. As a result defense of their church becomes the same as defending their faith. And there you have it in a nutshell. Jesus becomes a window dressing at that point; something to give legitimacy to the system of works they have established to replace the Law that God gave.
No system of works, rules, regulations, and ceremonies man sets up in it's place is going to save if the Law God Himself gave doesn't.

John 14:6 - Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.
No Pope, Mary, saints, sacraments or church. It truly is just that simple.

"I was surprised Roman Catholics would prefer the word rape in reference to the actions of their priestcraft, but so be it." I have no idea what you are talking about and not surprisingly neither do you.

"This interesting coming from one who defends a church built on forgeries and lies."
That is a pretty harsh characterization of the Revealed Word even for a Protestant. Are you suggesting that God "revealed" lies and forgeries to build His Church?
BTW I'm a Unitarian.
