Scripture is The Word of God. As such Scripture IS God speaking. If that’s not enough for Rome, go play with pigeons. Catholiciism is ‘another gospel’, one overflowing with man-made dogma not found anywhere in the Word of God. Yet too many adore it to the blind limits. Pigeon chess indeed!
Then beginning with Moses and with all the prophets, He explained to them the things concerning Himself in all the Scriptures. Luke 24:27
44Now He said to them, “These are My words which I spoke to you while I was still with you, that all things which are written about Me in the Law of Moses and the Prophets and the Psalms must be fulfilled.†45Then He opened their minds to understand the Scriptures, Luke 24:44-45
You, however, continue in the things you have learned and become convinced of, knowing from whom you have learned them, 15and that from childhood you have known the sacred writings which are able to give you the wisdom that leads to salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus. 16All Scripture is inspired by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, for training in righteousness; 17so that the man of God may be adequate, equipped for every good work. 2 Timothy 3:14-17
When Jesus was tempted by Satan, Christ appealed to the Scriptures.
When Peter delivered his sermon in Acts he appealed to the Scriptures.
When Paul refuted the false teachings in Galatians he appealed to the Scriptures.
God gave His commandments to Moses in written form.
The writer of Hebrews appealed to the Scriptures.
More could be listed but the premise is clear....Scripture is to be the final source we appeal to for authority.
As John put it:
30Therefore many other signs Jesus also performed in the presence of the disciples, which are not written in this book; 31but these have been written so that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God; and that believing you may have life in His name. John 20:30-31 NASB
13These things I have written to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, so that you may know that you have eternal life. 1 John 5:13 NASB
Paul's writings were considered Scripture as well.
She would have to swim back. She is already Catholic.
The Greek word scripture, meant writings, nothing sacred.
You sound more and more like a Mormon every time you post.
Mary is the mother of Jesus. Jesus is God. Get it?

“God the Holy Spirit entrusted his wondrous gifts to Mary, his faithful spouse...”
Spouse???? So he called Mary a bigamist?
Can a child exist before the mother is born?
Doesn’t seem to bother catholics that their Mary is the supposed spouse of someone she bore in her womb ...
Stick with the issues, do not make it personal.
Mindreading is a form of making it personal.
Declaring a poster is associated with a particular belief system that they deny being a part of is mindreading.

I am sorry you saw my post that way. I did not say that she is Mormon. I said that she is sounding like a Mormon.
She may hate Mormons as much AS SHE SEEMS to hate Catholics.
1 the progenitors of modern art
2 wild cats that were the progenitors of the house cat
The OT was Scripture.
I think I'm beginning to see the catholic problem now. Scripture is not viewed as sacred.
Your reply has nothing to do with the message I posted to you.
I will not debate you about the guidelines of the Religion Forum and they must be followed.
Anyone that does not wish to follow them should not post on the Religion Forum.
Even though you use the words “may” and “SEEMS,” your last sentence is flame-baiting.
