A-Christian said:Oh, and if what you offer is 'truth', then please direct me to the use of the word 'Catholic' in The Word.
And once again, please show me in the Word that the Word is the only source of all that the apostles taught.
Merry Christmas again MEC :D
So, you would rather evade the question than offer an open and honest answer?
If I show you, If I can offer an answer to your question, are you able to ADMIT IT and accept it?
Beware of what you ask for as has been offered from above: Ask and ye SHALL receive. For I come here NOT to offer mine OWN words. But I am certainly not succeptable to words offered by 'men' either. I am continually accused of just this: but, even though my posts are in words that I use in an attempt to make scripture 'easier' to understand for those that find it difficult, they are directly offered from scripture itself. Not 'opinions', but that which was offered by the prophets, and Christ, and His apostles.
You would offer that there were 'others' whose writtings are MORE important than that contained within The Word. Writtings that alter the truth contained within The Bible and that without this knowledge I can have no 'complete understanding' of God and His Son.
A, to hold this belief is to 'believe' that God is unable to reveal the TRUTH through His Wod. And I seriously have a hard time with this type of 'belief'. Christ didn't come and offer what He had to offer to those of sophisticaton and HIGH intellect. Heck, even the apostles were a group of ignorant, mostly poor, mostly uneducated people. And there is a REASON for this. For those that 'think' that are smarter than everyone else are most likely unable to accept something as simple as what was offered by Christ and His apostles. For those that 'think' they are so much 'smarter' than everyone else, the entire relationship of God to mankind is JUST TOO SIMPLE.
