You are sorely mistaken. The reason for the different text size is that THE TRUTH (see?) often needs a little HELP coming from the mouths (or keyboards) of its keepers as it cannot stand on its own.

If we don’t need a teacher, then we don’t need you to be our teacher, either. Right?
Or is it only the one whom God has appointed (the Pope) who is not allowed to be our teacher, but everyone else can come along and teach us, just as long as they don’t claim to be infallible. And we have to believe them - because - they didn’t claim to be infallible - which means that they are being honest with us - maybe …

Anyone who claims quoted Scripture is not the truth shouldn’t even be Catholic.

NObody here is trying to be your teacher…some are just trying to tell you to look directly AT your teacher and talk to him who has been waiting for you while you have been so busy talking to your friends.If we don’t need a teacher, then we don’t need you to be our teacher, either. Right?

Tell me Moslacked:
If Christians don’t need a teacher, then why are there thousands of protestants denominations that teach conflicting contradictory doctrines? If, as you said in the other thread, God communicates directly to disciples, then why all the doctrinal chaos among you guys? Is the Father asleep at the wheel? Did the Holy Spirit take a 500-year vacation? Whats up with that?

You could have fooled me. It really seems as if there are a lot of non-Catholics here trying to “teach” us stuff.
OH, you just said that to the wrong person - you have no idea who I am, do you?
I talk to Jesus all the time. In fact, Jesus came to me and told me Himself, to join the Catholic Church, and He explained the teachings to me, Himself, while I waited for a priest to come and help me - that was exactly 9 years ago yesterday, in fact.

Ralph, ALL you need is the Spirit.
John 14:26 But the Counselor, the Holy Spirit & the Father will send Him in My Name & will teach you all things and remind you of everything I have told you.
- It is the Spirit that bears witness.

Of the thousands who came out from Egypt, how many spoke with God? ONE - Moses.
Of the thousands who sought to free Judaism from perceived corruption from the new Christians, how many spoke with Jesus? ONE - Paul.
Of the millions of Jews in Israel, how many were chosen as disciples?
And YOU expect communication with the Holy ONE when you can barely quote Scripture to defend your lies? Not that it should be done, but incoherent lies that bears no support from holy scripture only brings the self professed religious person to ruin.

That says that the Spirit will lead, nothing about Scriptures. Please try again. Where does it say that all you need is the Bible?

This is very poor exegesis on your part Mosacked. When you read the verse in context it is clearly not indicationg that Christians “do not need anyone to teach them”, as you seem to be claiming. John was comparing the believers to the man who does not believe that Jesus was the Christ. He tells them that they do not need anyone to teach them this truth, because they already knew it. You seem to interpret through eisegesis at the expense of proper exegesis. :crying:
Help me understand the point you are attempting to make in light of these verses:
2 Tim 2:2
2 And the things you have heard me say in the presence of many witnesses entrust to reliable men who will also be qualified to teach others.
2 Thess. 2:15
15 So then, brethren, stand firm and hold to the traditions which you were taught, whether by word of mouth or by letter from us.

He/she is a “FundieBaptist” which means they believe everything Jack Chick has said. Most certainly this may be one person who has put a “tract” in Bathroom stalls in the hopes that someone has read at least the summary “Roman’s Road” aspect of it at the end of the Tract. I would even go so far as to say this person is probably a pre-trib rapture believer who believes that the Pope is either the Anti-Christ or at the very least the False Prophet and that the church is the “Whore of Babylon” though its poor exegesis for someone to interpret that Chapter of Revelation that way. Especially in this modern Age when the Papacy is only in control of one hill of Rome called the Vatican. But what can you expect from a person who takes “scripture alone” which they only understand those same passages as their particular cut of Baptist do.
