Learn how to properly divide The Word

Sure. From the folks who know how to do it, not the theological descendants of Simon Magus. Jesus gave the authority to the Church, not to every man who wanted to set up his own belief system. Paul was not kind to those who believed or taught another gospel.

Galatians 1: 6 5 6 I am amazed that you are so quickly forsaking the one who called you by (the) grace (of Christ) for a different gospel 7 (not that there is another). But there are some who are disturbing you and wish to pervert the gospel of Christ. 8 But even if we or an angel from heaven should preach (to you) a gospel other than the one that we preached to you, let that one be accursed! 7 9 As we have said before, and now I say again, if anyone preaches to you a gospel other than the one that you received, let that one be accursed!

Doesn't bode well for the children of the Reformation, does it? The ultimate end of the Reformation was the destruction of Christianity. We Christians are keeping it together (with His authority) and bringing the Gospel to the whole world - and Jesus will be with us always.

Matthew 28: 18 11 Then Jesus approached and said to them, "All power in heaven and on earth has been given to me. 19 Go, therefore, 12 and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the holy Spirit, 20 teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. 13 And behold, I am with you always, until the end of the age."

Jesus does not say that He will be with any Tom, Dick or Calvin that pulls his beliefs out of his navel each morning.

A catholic talking about Jesus? What happening to the papa pope, the Vatican's made up Mary, the church fathers? LOL!!

What about what Jesus DID said about his mother? Why do you overlook what HE DID say and instead post 'who you think' who He will be with or not. So this is about you? I'll play your little think game....

Do you think He's with anyone that submit to man made teachings that nullify HIS very own WORD?

Do you think He's with those who don't believe and live by God's Word is the Final Authority?

Jesus is The Word - deny His Word as the FINAL Authority, you deny HIM!
