It's a good thing I am using my iPhone 6, to post here, or you would owe me a new keyboard too. I was able to lift it out of the way.

The church that Jesus started in the 1st century was made up of all born again saved followers of Jesus. It is 100% made up of Christians.

That is 100% correct, but that SAME group soon became known as Catholics...SAME group.

When you were conceived you were who you are.....when you were born, your mother/father named you syncro.....

However, from the moment that you were conceived you were syncro even though you weren't referred to as such.

The Catholic church was conceived by Christ...it was referred to as such before the end of the first century.......nothing changed, same group permanent name.

It is almost noon Thursday here, and it is already hot. I am glad God created air conditioning.

And also He is NOT the victim!

He who WILLINGLY gave up His Life so we may live.

He took our sins on Him and sacrificed His life to save ours.

King James Bible 1 John 2:2
And he is the propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world.
Propitiation is not being a victim.

Jesus is our advocate, an atoning sacrifice for us.

Once and for all, preach the Cross but all should remember he is not on the cross anymore.

He is sitting in heaven next to the Father God, and NO one can pull Him down to earth and get Him to bow to them. The absurdity is thick.

Protestants NEVER excuse the heresy of the “Church!”

They invent it and then spend years and zillions of time on computer networks attempting to justify their bizarre reasoning.

Your post doesn't even merit a reply.

"Zillions" of time?

What planet are you from?

Oh, and how long of a list would you like?

It's not enough that your god bows down to a priest in humble obedience to the priest's command.

If you accept that, there is no use showing you the long list.

It’s your belief systems falsehood.

It’s your responsibility to prove it, otherwise it did not happen.

Bwahahaha, the magicsteeringthem is rubbing off! Conflating the catholic nature of ALL born agains with the institutional name of your religion is a neat trick. Mental gymnastics even!

To the catholic minds, He is not on the cross any less either, since they feed Him in their wafers to those duped into the pagan rites.

*Probably*? On what basis is that conclusion reached? Because there's not a thing in Scripture that could possibly lead to that conclusion. And if it's none of our business, then why did the Catholic church make it their business and concoct all kinds of fables about what may or may not have happened between the two of them? Why are Catholics so obsessed with her virginity then?

Rome presumes an autocratic right to even subject Scripture to herself, often forced to support here as an abused seravnt. And note that the purported Marian vow of perpetual virginity would normally be Joseph's business, subject to his sanction if made under his headship. Otherwise it would have been subject to her father's sanction.

If a woman also vow a vow unto the Lord, and bind herself by a bond, being in her father's house in her youth; 4 And her father hear her vow, and her bond wherewith she hath bound her soul, and her father shall hold his peace at her: then all her vows shall stand, and every bond wherewith she hath bound her soul shall stand. 5 But if her father disallow her in the day that he heareth; not any of her vows, or of her bonds wherewith she hath bound her soul, shall stand: and the Lord shall forgive her, because her father disallowed her. 6 And if she had at all an husband, when she vowed, or uttered ought out of her lips, wherewith she bound her soul;n 7 And her husband heard it, and held his peace at her in the day that he heard it: then her vows shall stand, and her bonds wherewith she bound her soul shall stand. 8 But if her husband disallowed her on the day that he heard it; then he shall make her vow which she vowed, and that which she uttered with her lips, wherewith she bound her soul, of none effect: and the Lord shall forgive her. 9 But every vow of a widow, and of her that is divorced, wherewith they have bound their souls, shall stand against her. 10 And if she vowed in her husband's house, or bound her soul by a bond with an oath; 11 And her husband heard it, and held his peace at her, and disallowed her not: then all her vows shall stand, and every bond wherewith she bound her soul shall stand. 12 But if her husband hath utterly made them void on the day he heard them; then whatsoever proceeded out of her lips concerning her vows, or concerning the bond of her soul, shall not stand: her husband hath made them void; and the Lord shall forgive her. 13 Every vow, and every binding oath to afflict the soul, her husband may establish it, or her husband may make it void.

3 The husband should fulfill his marital duty to his wife, and likewise the wife to her husband. 4 The wife does not have authority over her own body but yields it to her husband. In the same way, the husband does not have authority over his own body but yields it to his wife. 5 Do not deprive each other except perhaps by mutual consent and for a time, so that you may devote yourselves to prayer. Then come together again so that Satan will not tempt you because of your lack of self-control. (NIV)

and at the end it says I am not imposing a rule on you....

"That is 100% correct, but that SAME group soon became known as Catholics...SAME group."

Not at all, this has been explained to you many times.

"catholic" in the early days meant universal...the universal church made up of ONLY born again believers.

same group SOON became known as Catholics.

What?

SOON became known as Catholics???????

So what is it, you have been saying for months and months that the Catholic church started in the year zero, now it is over thirty years later?

Sorry you have destroyed your credibility, what little of it your had if you ever did.

Plus the blastheme of God bowing to one of your tainted preists...yes tainted...you yourself said that even if a priest is a child molester, he can still do all the priestly duties, including your communion.

Sorry, God would char instantly any priest that reached up to heaven to snatch Jesus from His throne and bring him to earth to BOW TO THE PRIEST!

God doesn't hate much, but he does hate sin. As well as false prophets.

And if she took a vow of perpetual virginity, then she had no business, or right, taking marriage vows with Joseph, especially is she had no intent on consummating the marriage.

In Catholicism that would mean it was not a valid marriage in the first place and eligible for their church sanctioned divorce, aka annulment.

Why is it necessary for Mary to be perpetually virgin once Jesus was born?

Why would it be wrong for her to have sex with Joseph?

Keep denying Holy God-Breathed Scripture and adding to it but be aware it will not go well with you.

Have at it, make the Catholic Mary into anything you would like, but she is NOT the Mary of the Bible, the mother of Jesus in the flesh.

At the end of what does he say that he’s not imposing a rule on them?

Why is Mary’s alleged virginity such an issue for Catholics and how does it affect one’s salvation?
