[Rashputin]

Christ never once mentioned that anything in the Septuagint shouldn't be there.

Surely if the “Scripture Alone” scam were true Christ and the Apostles would have spelled out what should be thrown out of the Septuagint. Surely if the One Holy, Catholic, and Apostolic Church Jesus Christ Himself founded didn't have the authority to determine the canon the Apostles would have pointed that fact out rather than calling His Church the bulwark of the faith.

No matter how many people joined Luther's “Self Alone “ party to ingratiate themselves with the nobility, he was obviously wrong about throwing out portions of the New Testament. That alone is sufficient reason to ignore his claims about what should be in the Old Testament.

The need for a single infallible magisterium is due to the fact that Christ established that single infallible magisterium.

[daniel1212]

Christ never once mentioned that anything in the Septuagint shouldn't be there.

Surely if the “Scripture Alone” scam were true Christ and the Apostles would have spelled out what should be thrown out of the Septuagint.

You arguments consist of a serious of fallacies, while you failed to provide me with the basis for your assurance that Rome is the OTC.

First, whether Christ mentioned something or not is not a determinative basis as to what should be in the canon, as this “red letter” hermeneutic (which homosexuals also use) would also exclude many canonical books He did not quote from, while in principal it would sanction the inclusion of books which Rome herself rejects, as the Spirit of Christ mentions things from books not found in her (or our) canon.

In addition, for many reasons (though Jamnia may be excepted) it is held that the Septuagint is of dubious support for the apocrypha. Philo of Alexandria (fl. 1st c A.D.) states that only the Torah (the first 5 books of the O.T.) was commissioned to be translated, leaving the rest of the O.T. following in later centuries, and in an order that is not altogether clear, nor do all LXX manuscripts have the same apocryphal books and names.

And as Archer finds,

“even in the case of the Septuagint, the apocryphal books maintain a rather uncertain existence. The Codex Vaticanus (B) lacks 1 and 2 Maccabees (canonical, according to Rome), but includes 1 Esdras (non-canonical, according to Rome). The Sinaiticus (Aleph) omits Baruch (canonical, according to Rome), but includes 4 Maccabees (non-canonical, according to Rome)... Thus it turns out that even the three earliest MSS or the LXX show considerable uncertainty as to which books constitute the list of the Apocrypha..” (Archer, Gleason L., Jr., "A Survey of Old Testament Introduction", Moody Press, Chicago, IL, Rev. 1974, p. 75; http://www.provethebible.net/T2-Integ/B-1101.htm)

And while the Alexandrian canon, referred to as the Septuagint, is seen as identical to the Catholic Old Testament, yet ancient evidence as well as the Lord's affirmation of a tripartite canon in Lk. 24:44 weighs in favor of the Palestinian canon — if indeed there was a strict separation — being what He held to.

It is also a matter of debate whether the canon of Trent is exactly the same as that of Carthage and other councils, and it is understood that Trent rejected the apocryphal Septuagint version of 1 Esdras (as received by Hippo and Carthage) as canonical and called it 3 Esdras.” More

Surely if the One Holy, Catholic, and Apostolic Church Jesus Christ Himself founded didn't have the authority to determine the canon the Apostles would have pointed that fact out rather than calling His Church the bulwark of the faith.

This presumes what needs to be proven, first, that Rome is the church of the living God (1Tim. 3:15) while it overall evidences itself to be on an institutionalized version, and (consistent with your premise) that it has Apostlic sanction for everything she does, from praying to saints to Bingo. (Of course, once you infallibly declare you are infallible, anything can be asserted.

And that stulos (pillar) in 1Tim. 3:15 and “hedraiōma,” (as prop or ground, which word only occurs here, and is seen as a synonym/reinforcement of the former, so that the church is the pillar of the truth, and the function of the pillar is to support) means the church must be assured infallible, rather than it being as Israel, for “unto them were committed the oracles of God," (Romans 3:2) "Who are Israelites; to whom pertaineth the adoption, and the glory, and the covenants, and the giving of the law, and the service of God, and the promises." (Romans 9:4)

And under which most of the writings we hold as Scripture were established as such, without an assuredly infallible magisterium.

1Tim. 3:15 does not establish the church as assured infallible, much less Rome, but best conveys that the Church supports the Truth, as it is founded upon Truth, and is the instrumental source of Truth, as Israel was, but which does not render to be infallible whatever a writer wrote or a church taught, even if the latter infallibly declares she is and will be perpetually infallible whenever she speaks in accordance with her infallibly defined scope and content-based criteria. Instead, Instead, truth claims are established after the manner of the Lord and early church, as expressed below.

The need for a single infallible magisterium is due to the fact that Christ established that single infallible magisterium.

This again presumes what needs to be established, and relies on Rome's assertion to prove her assertion. The fact is that truth was preserved and writings were established as Scripture (Lk. 24:44) without an assuredly infallible magisterium. And that Christianity began in dissent from those who were the instruments and stewards of Holy Writ, and the inheritor of promises of Divine presence and preservation, (Lv. 10:11; Dt. 4:31; 17:8-13; Num. 23:19,23; Is. 41:10, Ps. 89:33,34; Mal. 3:6).

And who alone could lay claim to having historical decent, and whose conditional (as submission to man always is) authority the Lord upheld. (Mt. 23:2 etc.)

But like Rome in presuming a level of assured veracity and authority above what is written, (cf. 1Cor. 4:6) they challenged the unsanctioned (by them) authority of the Itinerant Preach of Nazareth who reproved them by Scripture for teaching as doctrines mere tradition of the elders, (Mk. 7:3-16) and established His claims upon Scriptural substantiation, in text and in power, as did the apostles and early church. (Mt. 22:23-45; Lk. 24:27,44; Jn. 5:36,39; Acts 2:14-35; 4:33; 5:12; 15:6-21;17:2,11; 18:28; 28:23; Rm. 15:19; 2Cor. 12:12, etc.)

And that Scripture was the supreme transcendent material standard for obedience and testing truth claims is abundantly testified to in Scripture

No matter how many people joined Luther's “Self Alone “ party to ingratiate themselves with the nobility, he was obviously wrong about throwing out portions of the New Testament. That alone is sufficient reason to ignore his claims about what should be in the Old Testament.

And we do not concur with all he held, as like other so-called church fathers, he was also working through his theology, not did he claim assured infallibility, as self-alone popes do in exalting themselves.

And as it is Rome that is in the greater error, thus consistent with your basis for what is to be held as truth, and consistent with how the church began (in dissent from those who presumed more than what was written) we reject Rome's belated “infallible” canon, seeing the 66 books as being supernaturally established, as most of it already was before there ever was a church in Rome, due to their enduring Heavenly qualities, effects and attestation, to the glory of living almighty God.

May i reflect Him much better and daily repent in failing to do so.

Is Peter the 'rock'?

NIV Matthew 4:18-19
 18.  As Jesus was walking beside the Sea of Galilee, he saw two brothers, Simon called Peter and his brother Andrew. They were casting a net into the lake, for they were fishermen.
 19.  "Come, follow me," Jesus said, "and I will make you fishers of men."

 

NIV Matthew 8:14
  When Jesus came into Peter's house, he saw Peter's mother-in-law lying in bed with a fever.

 

NIV Matthew 10:1-2
 1.  He called his twelve disciples to him and gave them authority to drive out evil  spirits and to heal every disease and sickness.
 2.  These are the names of the twelve apostles: first, Simon (who is called Peter) and his brother Andrew; James son of Zebedee, and his brother John;

 

NIV Matthew 14:28-31
 28.  "Lord, if it's you," Peter replied, "tell me to come to you on the water."
 29.  "Come," he said.   Then Peter got down out of the boat, walked on the water and came toward Jesus.
 30.  But when he saw the wind, he was afraid and, beginning to sink, cried out, "Lord, save me!"
 31.  Immediately Jesus reached out his hand and caught him. "You of little faith," he said, "why did you doubt?"

 

NIV Matthew 15:13-16
 13.  He replied, "Every plant that my heavenly Father has not planted will be pulled up by the roots.
 14.  Leave them; they are blind guides.  If a blind man leads a blind man, both will fall into a pit."
 15.  Peter said, "Explain the parable to us."
 16.  "Are you still so dull?" Jesus asked them.

As you can see, Simon was already known as 'Peter'

BEFORE the following verses came along.....

NIV Matthew 16:13-18
 13.  When Jesus came to the region of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, "Who do people say the Son of Man is?"
 14.  They replied, "Some say John the Baptist; others say Elijah; and still others, Jeremiah or one of the prophets."
 15.  "But what about you?" he asked. "Who do you say I am?"
 16.  Simon Peter answered, "You are the Christ,  the Son of the living God."
 17.  Jesus replied, "Blessed are you, Simon son of Jonah, for this was not revealed to you by man, but by my Father in heaven.
 18.  And I tell you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my church, and the gates of Hades  will not overcome it.

 19.  I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven; whatever you bind on earth will be  bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven."

  As it is written: "See, I lay in Zion a stone that causes men to stumble and a rock that makes them fall, and the one who trusts in him will never be put to shame."

 

 

 

NIV 1 Peter 2:4-8
 4.  As you come to him, the living Stone--rejected by men but chosen by God and precious to him--
 5.  you also, like living stones, are being built into a spiritual house to be a holy priesthood, offering spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.
 6.  For in Scripture it says: "See, I lay a stone in Zion, a chosen and precious cornerstone, and the one who trusts in him will never be put to shame."
 7.  Now to you who believe, this stone is precious. But to those who do not believe, "The stone the builders rejected has become the capstone, "
 8.  and, "A stone that causes men to stumble and a rock that makes them fall." They stumble because they disobey the message--which is also what they were destined for.

And now you know the Biblical position!

[Elsie]

Christ never once mentioned that anything in the Septuagint shouldn't be there.

Some scripture of ancient origin are found in the Septuagint but are not present in the Hebrew.

These additional books are Tobit, Judith, Wisdom of Solomon, Wisdom of Jesus son of Sirach, Baruch, Letter of Jeremiah (which later became chapter 6 of Baruch in the Vulgate), additions to Daniel (The Prayer of Azarias, the Song of the Three Children, Susanna and Bel and the Dragon), additions to Esther, 1 Maccabees, 2 Maccabees, 3 Maccabees, 4 Maccabees, 1 Esdras, Odes, including the Prayer of Manasseh, the Psalms of Solomon, and Psalm 151.

The canonical acceptance of these books varies among different Christian traditions, and there are canonical books not derived from the Septuagint. For more information regarding these books, see the articles Biblical apocrypha, Biblical canon, Books of the Bible, and Deuterocanonical books.
