[Mark17]

Jesus never told us that all Truth is in the Bible.

I suppose if you want to design 6th generation fighter aircraft, or if you want to become a nuclear weapons maintenance officer, there is a better than even chance, you might consult another book, besides the Bible. If, on the other hand, I want to learn about Heaven and Hell, I will consult the Bible, as opposed to an aeronautical engineering manual. I ONLY do the Bible. I don’t accept traditions, unless I compare it to the Bible first. If you want to accept them, whatever they may be, knock yourself out. I won’t do it. I also know how to rightly divide the word of truth. I look at your interpretations, and I disagree with about 99% of them. Look bro, someone is right or wrong here. I don’t do the sacraments. I don’t accept a sinless demigoddess named Semiramis. I am perfectly satisfied and comfortable, outside the Catholic Church. It’s not likely to change. I hope you find the truth, before it's too late. 🔥 😁🤣🤗🤪🤑🙃☘️

[Mark17]

I saw both Amir and Barry in person, here at SM Lanang, back in January. They come here every January. 😁🙃

GOD, through the Holy Spirit said that Scripture contains
all we need for salvation and Christian maturity.

[aMorePerfectUnion]

Jesus established His Catholic Church so that we could follow Him and learn what He taught as the reveled truths of God.

Apparently, He established it to integrate all pagan religions into a new religion...

... most recently, worshipping the Pachamama idol in the vatican!

Yes indeed it is. A father running towards his ‘lost’ son and hugging him with tender love.

I don’t understand the universe the Marianites live in. It’s alien and devoid of God.

Psalm 103:13
As a father has compassion on his children, so the LORD has compassion on those who fear him;

His Catholic Church and His Sacraments

Neither mentioned in Scripture, though baptism and the Lord's Supper are commanded.

[aMorePerfectUnion]

You attempt to imply meaning without understanding context or using reason and logic in understanding the Bible.

This is the perfect summation of your account posting history here!

[aMorePerfectUnion]

The teaching office of the Catholic Church , The Magisterium, has the task of authoritatively interpreting the Word of God contained in Sacred Scripture and Sacred Tradition.

Only for Catholics.

Not for Christians.

“Hold fast to the traditions that you were taught, either by oral statement or by letter of ours.” 2Thes 2:15

Please post the exact list of these traditions Paul referred to.

Please post an uninterupted transmission from the Apostles to today.

Short of that, all you have is wishogesis.

[Mark17]

though baptism and the Lord's Supper are commanded.

I disagree with the Catholic interpretation of those issues. Imagine that. Me, disagreeing with catholic interpretations. Has that ever happened before? 🤑🤑🤗🤣😊

[Roman_War_Criminal]

I remember you mentioning that.
I wish I could see them in person also. Not looking like that will ever happen :)

Thank you for this detailed answer. I had seen I John 5:16,17 as a 'simple' definition. It is startling, then that my own Eastern Orthodox church NEVER uses those terms, at least in anything I have read or heard. It has never been brought up in confession, either.

After reading your take on the passage, I looked up the passage in the Orthodox Study Bible. It said:

"5:16 What about those Christians who have not been living righteously? Sin leading to death is willful, continual disbelief in the grace of the Holy Spirit towards us."

In other words, I take it to refer to non-repentance together with willful and continual lack of faith that God will forgive.

It is gratifying to find myself on (almost) the same page as my Protestant brothers and sisters.

[Luircin]

It’s gratifying to hear the same from my Eastern Orthodox brothers and sisters too!

[Elsie]

Silly wabbit!

You ‘sposed to fingerprint their HANDS!!!

[Elsie]

Well; there IS this scene in ‘Ghost’...

[Elsie]

Jesus never told us that all Truth is in the Bible.

So?

---

You reject parts of God’s revealed truth...

They sure do! Call no man father...

---

Jesus established His Catholic Church so that we could follow Him and learn what He taught as the reveled truths of God.

To bad you guys have jumped the shark so many times.

[Elsie]

I have read of a certain fella that did REALLY good with just the scroll of Isaiah!

[Elsie]

The Holy Spirit tells us that everything we need for salvation can be found in Scripture.

---

In case certain folks do not believe this; I give you...

2 Peter 1:3

By his divine power, God has given us everything we need for living a godly life.

The teaching office of the Catholic Church , The Magisterium, has the task of authoritatively interpreting the Word of God contained in Sacred Scripture and Sacred Tradition.

And where in Scripture did Jesus tell Peter to set up a magisterium and that it and it alone had the authority to correctly *interpret* Scripture? Chapter and verses is you can.

Many attempt to follow only parts of the Bible that agree with your man made doctrine that contradicts God’s truth. You reject parts of God’s revealed truth, His Catholic Church and His Sacraments. You attempt to imply meaning without understanding context or using reason and logic in understanding the Bible.

Matthew 23:1-12 Then Jesus said to the crowds and to his disciples, “The scribes and the Pharisees sit on Moses' seat, so do and observe whatever they tell you, but not the works they do. For they preach, but do not practice.

They tie up heavy burdens, hard to bear, and lay them on people's shoulders, but they themselves are not willing to move them with their finger. They do all their deeds to be seen by others. For they make their phylacteries broad and their fringes long, and they love the place of honor at feasts and the best seats in the synagogues and greetings in the marketplaces and being called rabbi by others.

But you are not to be called rabbi, for you have one teacher, and you are all brothers. And call no man your father on earth, for you have one Father, who is in heaven. Neither be called instructors, for you have one instructor, the Christ. The greatest among you shall be your servant. Whoever exalts himself will be humbled, and whoever humbles himself will be exalted.
