Your pope can trace his roots back to the roman emperor, and even bear the same title as him pontifex maximus… Peter, bless his soul, was never a pope, he was a believer that became one of the leaders in the first jewish church. Remember, Petros means a piece of rock, not a large boulder (petra), like the one Jesus says he wil build His ‘church’.
No, your bible says Peter can trace his roots back to Jesus Christ.
“You are Peter, and on this rock I will build my Church, and the gates of hell will not prevail against it”
There is no record of Ignatius in the scriptures,
Neither is there mentioned of Ellen Gould White. But the Church does have record of many early writings, that testify to the faith of the Church.
also there is no record of anything that we shall follow the bishop as Jesus does His Father. Jesus -never- stated such a thing… If that was true, shall we also follow the many catholic clergy who has molested small boys? I know that is a punch below the belt, but it is to illustrate a point… The catholic church claimes that the priest is a representative for christ, and should be followed like he was Jesus… Actions speak louder than words, but i do really believe that none of you would agree to follow the priest in such horrible acts like that…
Christ protects his Church from error on faith and morals. From sinners, not as much.
No not really suffering from anything like that…
Well, you have to ask yourself where do you get your sola scriptura belief? It’s not in scripture.
And yes, there was scriptures that were good for teaching salvation long before the new testament was written, the old testament was the scriptures that Paul talked about in this passage. It contains everything you need to understand the salvation that God offers us…Especially in the temple service teachings… You should know these things, being a christian.
You are Sola Old Testament?
Why add a cryptic word, and change the practice the Jesus started. Jesus never taught that he was going to be literally sacrificed every sunday for hundreds and thousands of years after his death and ressurection. That would be unbiblical, because he quite clearly states that he was to be sacrificed -once- for many. Not every sunday in the catholic church…
Your understanding of the mass is in error. Christ’s sacrifice is represented, he is not sacrificed again.
How can i quote something i tell you that is not there? I said, it is nowhere to be found that we are supposed to follow the bishops like Jesus does the Father.
Jesus Christ says to his apostles that “those who hear you, hear me and the one who sent me”…those who don’t listen, don’t hear Christ nor the Father. The Apostles are the first Bishops…and through the laying of hands gave ordination to their successors.
No not very catholic, very biblical. You follow a church that has changed a good deal of things found in scripture/the word of God. And a church that is disobedient to Christ is a church that is walking on -very- thin ice…
That is your opinion. Your church has strayed from 2,000 years of apostolic Church teaching, ignoring many of the sacraments that Christ established to give us grace for our salvation (led astray by a false prophet)
No, not so… The scripture tell us to follow Christ, not Ignatius, or any bishop that condones changing the scriptures to their own liking.
Christ said to eat his body and drink his blood…that it is real food…and you need to do so to have life within you. St. Ignatius understood this very well.
There are several clear passages like this, the dead are dead, not conscious at all… Or does the church know better than the man Gods word states is the wisest man that ever lived?
You’ll have to explain then how Moses and Elijah appeared at the transfiguration and how thief on the cross was with Jesus in paradise the same day as the crucifixion.
I overslept this morning… felt really good.
PnP
boring CAF would be if I did that.
