That’s an extremely >cryptic answer. I was looking for a simple = Yes or No!

As I understand >your answer: you believe >you have an >infallible understanding of Scripture & >you believe that >you are being guided to truth by >God.

It seems >you think >you are a type of >pope in >your church.

The argument >you present is NOT NOT NOT really about the infallibility of the Catholic Pope.
It’s really about: “Who be the real-pope?” Please look again at my comment #6 & especially ‘Patrick Madrid’s comment about infallibility.

There was NO simple yes or no question.

Do you beieve God’s word to be truth? (John 17:17)

Do you believe God’s Holy Spirit made a mistake in revealing His Word to mankind? (John 14:26 and John 16:13)

Do you believe God’s word is the power of God to salvation? (Rom. 1:16)

Do you believe God righteousness is revealed in the scriptures? (Rom. 1:17)

Do you believe that “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.” (John 1:1)?

Do you believe the Word became flesh? (”And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth.”)

Do you believe something more than God’s word is needed for salvation?

It seems >you think >you are a type of >pope in >your church.

I’m no pope, I have only 1(one) HIGH PRIEST and that is Jesus Christ and NONE OTHER....! And, I have only one mediator between God and me and that is Jesus Christ and none other. I don’t need a pope for an advocate, I have Jesus Christ. (1 John 2:1, 1 Tim. 2:5) Do you think you need another earthly, sinful advocate other than Christ?

Do you have more than one spiritual Father?

The argument >you present is NOT NOT NOT really about the infallibility of the Catholic Pope.

The pope as u choose to call him is a mere man. He’s just a sinner and is NO BETTER than you or me. He in in NO WAY infallible PERIOD. (Rom. 3:23)

It’s really about: “Who be the real-pope?” Please look again at my comment #6

We know who the REAl HIGH PRIEST IS AND He is Jesus Christ. The question is who do you believe. The Catholic Church of God’s word.

& especially ‘Patrick Madrid’s comment about infallibility.
