That and Luther did his research and knew what he was talking about.

It's ebb's way of leaving the debate when he's losing...which is quite often.
And really, that’s not even Biblically accurate, because shaking dust from their feet is something that JWs do, because Jesus only told that to the ones he first sent out during his earthly ministry.
Ebb should be saying something like casting pearls before swine instead, but I wonder if he’s even ever read that part of the Bible.
Awesome! So, you are either admitting Protestantism has defeated the Roman Catholic church and seated one of their own as the leader of all Christendom - and the "gates of hell" HAVE overcome it - or you ashcan the "we have an unbroken line of succession going back to the Apostle Peter" meme. Which is it to be?
Ebb's a pre Vatican 2 Roman Catholic. Per the website, catholic-resources maintained by Felix, Just, S. J. (http://catholic-resources.org/Lectionary/Statistics.htm) we have this:
NT Summary: Pre-Vatican II Missal Sundays and Major Feasts
% of NT verses used: 16.5%
For the OT the results are 1.0% (not including Psalms).
This helps us understand why so many of Roman Catholics are illiterate in the very book they claim to have given everyone.
Felix Just notes on his webpage:Although I am a Roman Catholic priest and have taught mostly in Catholic institutions, I hope that these materials are academically reliable and pastorally adaptable enough to be useful for many other Christians and non-Christians as well.Felix Just, S.J., Ph.D.
So shaking the feet of one’s sandal is not applicable anymore; but casting pearls before swine still is.
Perfect example of cherry-picking.
Thank-you.
Wow, you don’t even know the answer to that question?
Some defender of the faith YOU are. No wonder ya have to post anonymously to FR; that kind of statement would get laughed out of even a Unitarian debate.
Perfect example of cherry-picking.

I know the difference because I read the Bible.
You don’t.
Nope. I’m saying Jorge Bergoglio is not a Catholic and the Catholic Church will always prevail against the gates of Hell, despite the likes of him.
"Unitarians"; are they are a different denominaton than "protestants"?
You keep saying it doesn't make it true. The dude's a Roman Catholic whether you like it or not.
“Unitarians”; are they are a different denominaton than “protestants”?

You know, I’ve never seen someone so proud to be so ignorant before.
Then again, YOUR church is the one that burns books, so I suppose that prideful ignorance is a cardinal virtue in Catholicism.
You don’t.
Are you pretending to read minds?
That's against forum rules, but I don't go running to the moderator.
Completely false.
HA.
So Ebby admits that he DOESN’T read the Bible.
If he did, he could prove me wrong; instead he changes the subject.
What a stalwart defender of the faith he is.
When I asked you to do Biblical research, you told me you had better things to do.
How is that anything but an admission that you don’t read Scripture?
Yet in your post #137, you complain about demeaning other "denominations" as a whole.
Look up hypocrite.
He shakes his sandals so much...
There’s no dust left!
