Clearly this guy doesn’t own a bible...He has no clue what Jesus taught...
That calumny is ironic, coming from someone who twice insinuated I was a "liar" with no evidence.
Hey, we gave you many pages of direct quotes from those three notables, or ‘rants’ as you called them.
You said they were from heretics.
So yes. It’s quite accurate to say that you called St. Paul, St. John, and Jesus heretics.
Which is really, REALLY funny.
Next up, I’m gonna see if I can’t get you to call the Virgin Mary a heretic by posting some quotes from her.
Of course there's evidence...We posted what the apostle Paul wrote and you said no he didn't write that...
Prove it. I've been quoting the Bible right and left.
Your false accusations are indicative of your lack of "faith".
Please indicate the post where I stated such a thing.
Put up or shut-up.

Okay!
St. Paul: “For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God— not by works, so that no one can boast.”
ebb tide: “No. Only the heretic Martin Luther, and his fellow travelers state that; and Luther’s no saint. “
So are you a liar or Biblically illiterate?

I’ll put up!
St. Paul: “For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God— not by works, so that no one can boast.”
ebb tide: “No. Only the heretic Martin Luther, and his fellow travelers state that; and Luther’s no saint. “
Boom.
Did Luther cherry-pick the above out your "bible"?
You said that St. Paul NEVER said those words.
I proved you wrong.
Are you a liar or just Biblically illiterate?
We already answered your crazed screaming.
You haven’t answered ours.
Put up or shut up, ebb. Address what St. Paul wrote. Address what Jesus himself said.
Or admit that you have no idea what you’re talking about.
LOL. How about creed instead of screed? 😀😆😁
Cut out the ‘very’ IMHO.
And while you’re at it, there was some very amusing drama tonight upthread.
Good for a couple of yuks on my end at least.
Anyways, good morning to you, goodnight for me!
That’s some very strained word parsing you have going on. “Valid” versus “true” — really? All that stuff that Jesus did which John didn’t write down in his Gospel: is it somehow not both “valid” and “true” because it’s not written in there? If you think it changes anything, I’ll add one more idea to what I said before: Something doesn’t have to be in the Bible to be Truth.
How do these verses fall short of establishing that? They tell us that not everything about God has been written down.
I sometimes think even if Jesus, Paul and John were to repeat the words they said/wrote for a few here they would accuse THEM of being heretics,too!
Little story that happened to me some many years ago. I was sitting with family and a Catholic priest at breakfast and we started talking about favorite Bible verses. I said mine was Ephesians 2:8,9 For it is by grace you have been saved through faith, and this not from yourselves; it is the gift of God, not by works, so that no one can boast. The priest looked at me and said, "That sounds Protestant to me." True story!
Did Luther cherry-pick the above out your "bible"?
No, but unlike you and your religion, he didn't get twisted in a knot over a couple of scriptures and ignore the rest of them...Like I told you, if you can't reconcile those verses with the epistles written to the church (Eph. 2:8,9) you've got no business quoting scripture to anyone...
And the fact that you ignore and DENY scriptures from the church epistles shows your dishonesty...
Correct me if I am wrong bro, but it looks like you have assurance of salvation. Praise God, so do I. It must frustrate those who have no assurance at all. They have my deepest sympathy, but that’s on them. 😀😆😁
Trying to tell someone, who is working his way to Heaven, about the free offer from Jesus, is an exercise in futility. Kudos to you for trying.
It seems to me, that a total and complete lack of any spiritual discernment whatsoever, and human pride, are a hideous combination, pretty much guaranteed to put the “worker” deep into the lake that burns forever. As they bake day and night, they cannot blame you for their deep misery. 🔥
