    Bible Study Do we love the truth!

    Obviously, this is not the only point of disagreement that we have. In fact, we have only found one point of agreement so far, and that is that Jesus died on the cross only one time. From my point of view, our numerous disagreements can be boiled down to one issue... the degree of separation...

    25.119 μακάριος, α, ον: pertaining to being happy, with the implication of enjoying favorable circumstances—‘happy.’ [Louw, J. P., & Nida, E. A. (1996). In Greek-English lexicon of the New Testament: based on semantic domains (electronic ed. of the 2nd edition., Vol. 1, p. 301). United Bible...

    Nope, it's the guarantee that Christianity (that has Jesus Christ as its foundation and it's central figure) will prevail against all commers. And the vanquished include those who would point us to Peter and not Christ.

    "And I also say to you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build My church, and the gates of Hades shall not prevail against it." (Mt 16:18) A person becomes a Christian when Jesus saves them from the damnation that their sins earned them. And we know that God has chosen to save those...

    I'm Baptist. My heritage does not include the reformation. And that means my heritage does not include Catholicism. So, you are greatly mistaken.

    Maybe you can start making your case by explaining this one: isa 53:5 But He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities; The chastisement for our peace was upon Him, And by His stripes we are healed. [The New King James Version (Is 53:5). (1982). Thomas Nelson.] I...

    11 And every priest stands ministering daily and offering repeatedly the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins. 12 But this Man, after He had offered one sacrifice for sins forever, sat down at the right hand of God, 13 from that time waiting till His enemies are made His footstool. 14...

    Great! We have found one point of agreement. This is not a full sentence, but a mismash of ideas. Can you clarify what you are saying? Neither is this a full sentence. Please clarify this also.

    I will take up the challenge. But if history is any indication, I will find that none of these verses support your argument that we must go to the Catholic Church and be in agreement with its pronouncements or we will be at odds with God. Here goes... Lk 10:16 He who hears you hears Me, he who...

    Jesus offered the one and only sacrifice thatcould ever have cleansed us of our sins, and there will never be another offering jor our sins. 24 For Christ has not entered the holy places made with hands, which are copies of the true, but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God...

    Who are you to judge another’s servant? To his own master he stands or falls. Indeed, he will be made to stand, for God is able to make him stand. (Ro 14:4) So then each of us shall give account of himself to God. (Ro 14:12) My brethren, let not many of you become teachers, knowing that we...

    You are confusing His roles. Not with the blood of goats and calves, but with His own blood He entered (Aorist Tense -- simple action in past time) the Most Holy Place once for all ("a single occurrence to the exclusion of any other similar occurrence—‘once and for all, once and never again’"...

    I don't know what that has to do with our deicsussion, but since you mentioned it, I looked up all the verses with "seal" and "Spirit". Here they are... 2 Cor 1:22 -- who also has sealed us and given us the Spirit in our hearts as a guarantee. Eph 1:13 -- In Him you also trusted, after you...

    The same thing that happens to an infant who died after being baptized. David seemed to be saying he believed he and Bathsheba would see in heaven their infant child who who had died. But I do not know the fate of people who die before they are able to believe in or reject Christ. God knows, but...

    I don't believe in your interpretation of Scripture, much less your interpretation of the Nicene Creed. I don't believe in the institution of the Catholic Church, though I do think there is a universal church made up of all true believers. And I do not believe baptism results in the forgiveness...

    Bible Study Do we love the truth!

    Well, I guess if a person looks to baptism for forgiveness, it would make sense that they would not know how the sins they commit after baptism are forgiven. But I have a feeling you want to make the point that participating in other sacraments on a regular basis (confession, lords supper) keeps...

    12 Not with the blood of goats and calves, but with His own blood He entered the Most Holy Place once for all, having obtained eternal redemption. (Heb 9:12) 11 And every priest stands ministering daily and offering repeatedly the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins. 12 But this...

    Well, your misunderstanding of the Bible's teaching on Baptism is certainly consistent with you quoting a demon posessed girl and referencing two other Scriptures that had nothing wharsoever to do with a point you thought they were supporting. You still have not explained how you determined that...

    That doesn't clarify that your position is different than, "obedience, not forgiveness, is the path to rightness with God", it supports it.

    Ok, I'll play along if you insist. Yes, Jesus is the truth. I know Jesus personally and intimately. So I know the truth. In fact, I have the mind of Christ. He personally retrieves nuggets of gold out of His vast and endless treasures of wisdom and knowledge and He shares those things with me...
