[SaulToPaul 2]

Ezekiel 28
4 With thy wisdom and with thine understanding thou hast gotten thee riches, and hast gotten gold and silver into thy treasures:

5 By thy great wisdom and by thy traffick hast thou increased thy riches, and thine heart is lifted up because of thy riches:

6 Therefore thus saith the Lord God; Because thou hast set thine heart as the heart of God;

7 Behold, therefore I will bring strangers upon thee, the terrible of the nations: and they shall draw their swords against the beauty of thy wisdom, and they shall defile thy brightness.

 

[chrysostom]

Now, tell me, how many times did he caused others to get angry? If you need help, read Matthew 23:13-33. He made others angry 15 times only in that text. Do you want to discuss about it?

no

 

[Right Divider]

Chrys is clueless as to why the LORD was angry and turned over the tables in the temple.

That fits nicely with his cluelessness about everything else. :up:

 

[SaulToPaul 2]

That fits nicely with his cluelessness about everything else. :up:

Yes, willingly ignorant.

"At the moment the Roman Catholic Church condemned the biblical doctrine of justification by faith alone, she denied the Gospel and ceased to be a legitimate church, regardless of all the rest of her affirmations of Christian orthodoxy. To embrace her as an authentic church while she continues to repudiate the biblical doctrine of salvation is a fatal attribution."

Wait a minute TulipBee and hold on that thought! What church did Jesus found if he was a Jew and not a Christian? Jews don't found churches, if I must remind you of. The first church which became known as Christian, was founded by Paul in the city of Antioch if you read Acts 11:26 with context. Believe it or not, Jesus never even dreamed Christianity would ever rise. When Paul started preaching his gospel, Jesus had been gone about 15 years.

"At the moment the Roman Catholic Church condemned the biblical doctrine of justification by faith ALONE...

Sproul's fundamental error occurs right at the beginning of his statement, in his assumption that "the biblical doctrine" is properly expressed with the phrase "justification by faith ALONE." In direct contrast to Sproul's claim, the biblical doctrine of soteriology can be viewed HERE and HERE. So much, then, for the reliability of your chosen source material.

We can all agree its important to belong to the church Christ founded.

Please, then, post the name of the church with which you are affiliated, and with which you gather on Sundays.

That's the problem with Catholicism, its not that church.

Now go ahead and post even one piece of actual evidence that supports your claim. Post your proof.

Lost response or the one who could give a response got lost?

 

[chrysostom]

the church teaches because many are lost

 

[SaulToPaul 2]

the church teaches because many are lost

Because the church teaches a false gospel, many remained lost.

As Paul states... names are NOT important. Your claim to be a member of the Romanized Church is nothing more than divisive. Peter nor any of your demi-god saints were crucified, buried and raised from the dead.

The fact that you are so prideful of it, shows you lack the spirit.

Now go ahead and post your proof that the Presbyterian Church in America is in fact that one historic Church founded by Jesus Christ in 33 A.D.

(By the way, I used to be a member of the OPC, the Orthodox Presbyterian Church.)
