Sorry, had to follow scripture and repent of that because it tells me to rebuke the pagan practices and teachings of the RCC. You do believe that when scripture says we did something wrong that we should repent right?
Jesus was known as the son of Joseph. Joseph was the son of Heli.
In Matthew Joseph's father is
16Jacob was the father of Joseph, the husband of Mary. Mary was the mother of Jesus, who is called the Messiah.
Luke gives Mary's bloodline and Matthew gives Joseph's and states such. Both go back to David. Jesus is from David through Mary not Joseph. He is legally Jewish through Mary.
Thank you for documenting that the Bible doesn’t say affirmatively that it is the ONLY source. The question was for the prots to prove that it does. Have you decided to become Catholic?
Clarification which may make this easier to understand. When a man married into a family the father of the bride called him son. The grooms father called the bride daughter.
As a born again Holy Spirit filled follower of Christ I would never ever align with the beliefs of a pagan infested cult such as the RCC.
John 6:53 is unscriptual?
“Jesus divided the bread, poured the wine and partook of both before it was presented to the disciples. I do not doubt that Christ performed this transubstantiation.”
Check your chronology. It is not your friend:
1) He gives thanks, breaks the bread, declares it is His body: “And when he had given thanks, he brake it, and said, Take, eat: this is my body, which is broken for you: this do in remembrance of me.(1Co 11:24)
2) After “he had supped,” He offers the cup, which He calls His blood: “After the same manner also he took the cup, when he had supped, saying, This cup is the new testament in my blood: this do ye, as oft as ye drink it, in remembrance of me.” (1Co 11:25)
3) After calling it the blood of the covenant, with the cup still in hand, He calls it “this fruit of the vine” which He would not drink AGAIN until reunited with the Apostles in heaven, either indicating He was about to drink it, or had just drank it: “for this is my blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins. I tell you I will not drink again of this fruit of the vine until that day when I drink it new with you in my Father’s kingdom.”
(Mat 26:28-29)
you should have stayed awake during religion class and it would have been explained to you...
it is really amazing that a person belonging to a man made denomination would point out the fallicy of a man made catechism.
to say that the Catholic church does anything unbiblical is to show ignorance of the history of the bible itself. Where do you think it came from, who do you think brought it through the first 1,600 years of Christianity, who do you think copied it, by hand, so that it could be preserved for all of mankind, why would the Catholic Church have done that and then taught something unbiblical??????????
basically no one had a copy of the bible until the printing press was invented, few if any people could have affordrd to own a copy of it and just as few could have read it.
the bible, as we know it is a book containing holy scripture but the handfull of people who could have taken advantage of it, as a book, before modern times, were the learned, scholars, librarians, monastaries etc..
but then along came the revolutionaries....knowing nothing of what they spoke (except their leaders), and drew millions of people away from the true church.
the people were totally uneducated, they couldn't read because there was nothing to read nor learn from. The protestant leaders gave these uneducated peopple a much easier was to salvation than did the 1,600 year old Christian church. Don't worry about your bad behavior, Christ already died for your sins and you won't be held accountable...want to get a divorce and remarry, sure, go ahead, no problem here. Is it hard for you to believe in transubstantiation, no problem, just eat this bread and drink this wine and we'll consider it a comemerative celebration, don't want to confess to a priest, no problem, Christ died for your sins so live it up and all is well.....pathetic
the roman Catholic Church brought you the bible from which you are quoting...say thank you!
didn't pay attention in fourth grade when they taught you to diagram a sentence, did you???
imperative sentence....take, eat, and do this
how many billions of Catholics do you suppose there were living over the last 2,013 years??????
good luck with ignoring 2,000 years of Christian teaching....make up your own rules as you go along, it is much easier AND you can play golf instead of going to Mass on Sunday....see, the benefits are neverending!!!
Depends on your definition of Catholic. The current crop have only existed since Vatican II. They change as often as their traditions do.
Catholicism IS biblical Christianity....think about it!!!
you have to be kidding....God can create the universe and He can"t be present in more than one place at a time.........think about what you said.
there are consequences for refuting Christ's church...I don't pretend to know what they are, but you cannot turn your back on Christ and expect Him to be happy.
Sure; if one considers it to be anything other than a metaphor.
Galatians 5:12
Looks like you work nights and Annalex works days...
