"In fairness to our FRiend Kosta I think his position is that whenever a group of theologians from his church gathered and determined what the truth of something was that is what the truth is."

Let's see, on one hand you have a group of people who seek the counsel of a consensus formed by the greatest intellectuals and spiritual leaders of the last 2,000 years arrived at by a rigorous process of study and debate. On the other hand you have the "learned" opinions of the Rev. Billy-Bob Rolex and the alumni of the East Tree Stump School of Theology and Diesel Maintenance, or worse self cogitated drivel that makes a yokel feel spiritually superiority.........Makes you go hmmmmmmm.

Yes it does!

Why people follow a group of theologians who don't even teach the members of their church The Gospel makes no sense to Bible believing Christians. Mock us all you want we know who our Rock is and on what we stand.

Once again, Catholics use 'greatest intellect and debate' as their parameter for truth -

When Christians use 'the Holy Spirit and 'hear and obey'.

Greatest intellect vs The Holy Spirit.
Debate vs Hear and Obey.


No one can deny the difference between the RCC and God's Church based on His Word.

Congrats NL. You did a great job in pointing that out.
