Actually, NL, I rather agree with Belteshazzar — they would have known Hebrew, Aramaic and Greek, maybe even Vulgar Latin. They were by no means experts in any of these, unlike Paul, but they were probabaly able to converse in these. Illiterates? I don’t think so,

[Cronos]

Thank you. A blanket statement is mostly wrong — thank you both for correcting rn

[metmom]

But better be careful about going to the hair dresser!

I think it was only men with their sideburns or those who took a Nazarite vow.

Since I am neither, I will go without fear.

"Can you substantiate your claims of Protestant service attendance, and the amount of scripture read therein?"

Of course I can or I wouldn't have said it. I have attended many Lutheran services while growing up. My mother was a Lutheran who converted to Catholicism and I attended Lutheran services frequently with my cousins. While in high school I dated a Methodist girl for well over a year and attended services with her frequently (after serving Mass at an earlier service). While stationed at Ft. Bragg I often attended a Baptist church in Fayetteville with friends. In Vietnam I attended services as often as I could and didn't care what denomination they were.

There was Scripture read at all of them, but nowhere near the amount read at a catholic Mass.

And enjoy the pork.

I’m jealous.....

[Cronos]

iscool:No Protestant says everything has to be in scripture

cronos: REALLY? No Protestants agrees with SOLA scriptura? What do you, Rn, Met, Game and Alex say to that? What does the OPC say about this statement, Dr, E?

Met: They're not the same thing.

REally? you, metmom do not think that Sola scriptura (Latin ablative, "by scripture alone") is the doctrine that the Bible contains all knowledge necessary for salvation? Iscool says "No Protestant says everything has to be in scripture" -- that's contrary to sola scriptura. Do you agree with Iscool, or not?

[Cronos]

Who knew that metmom would acknowledge someone who denied the trinity and the divinity of Christ as one of her fellow believers?! Do you Uri believe in the trinity and the divinity of Christ?

[1000 silverlings]

He gave you an answer that was brilliant in it’s brevity, you dont seem to understand it. That’s not his fault

[Cronos]

oh, so you believe in the god of Hate? Congratulations for admitting it. In the meanwhile, we Christians will keep believing in the God of Love, Jesus Christ, thank you.

I spoke about These folks are anti-Christians who seek to spread their hate as they don't believe in a God of love but a being of hate. but didn't expect any to admit it so quickly -- good for you. Now convince the other non-Christians here who masquerade as Christian Protestants to join you in admitting it.

[Natural Law]

"So under the appearance of bread and wine, the underlying reality is the body and blood of Christ."

Metmom and the anti-Catholics are just being obtuse here. Were they able to travel in time to Judea and Israel 2000 years ago and actually encounter Jesus no amount of forensic testing and equipment could establish and verify His spiritual presence in His human body. We all know and accept that as a Real Presence. The anti-catholics would have you believe that the exact same Real Presence is not manifest in the Bread and Wine.

[Cronos]

LCMS is the largest orthodox Lutheran group in the US. They are orthodox, believe in the True Presence in the Eucharist and in the Nicene Creed. Red and Belt are both LCMS. This group, by sticking true to orthodoxy, are our fellow Christians and brothers in Christ

Nevertheless, sometimes Walter gets on my nerves.

[1000 silverlings]

Well God is on record for saying that He hates the wicked and their acts, why? do you personally find them charming? many do

[InvisibleChurch]

no

[Cronos]

“and enjoy the pork” — careful, uri won’t like you eating pork, as his “protestant” group believes it’s wrong.

[Cronos]

So, you tell me, if you purport to interpret, does uri believe in the divinity of Christ and the Trinity?

[Elsie]

WOW!

BTW: the answer is NO.

[1000 silverlings]

so what I don’t eat pork either. Is it a mandate for salvation too? do we demand that others stop eating it? What’s your beef or pork, as the case may be

[Cronos]

well, no, I don’t find them charming — neither tc nor met.

[Cronos]

1. I didn't address you
2. I said ##as URi's “protestant” group believes it’s wrong.
3. Does your group believe it wrong to eat pork because it is against dietary laws?
