Passover flew over you. As usual. They were to take a spotless lamb, their best one. That is the key. Kill it, but don't break its bones. It is foreshadowing you buffoon. And spread the blood over the door so the angel of death will pass over their house. It is foreshadowing.You had to eat the Passover.

@Idolater, to your knowledge, do a lot (or any) of your fellow RCs take the so-called "prophecy of St. Malachy"/"Petrus Romanus" stuff seriously? I don't remember much from the meagre, desultory reading I've done on the subject over the years, but according to Wikipedia, at least, the "prophecy" ends with "Peter the Roman, who will pasture his sheep in many tribulations, and when these things are finished, the city of seven hills [i.e. Rome] will be destroyed, and the dreadful judge will judge his people. The End."

My favorite catholic, by far is the man known as Dr Steve Turley.
Yeah. For example, some of the things the Bible said about Him were the truths that He is God, and that He was crucified, died, was buried, rose from the dead, and ascended to heaven. To live according to those truths is to live according to what the Bible said about Him.
What do you mean by "there was no New Testament when He ascended"?
Do you mean that those Bible Truths (that He is God, and that He was crucified, died, was buried, rose from the dead, and ascended to heaven, etc.) weren't believed by "His disciples and believers in Him" until the New Testament was penned? Do you mean that those Bible Truths (that He is God, and that He was crucified, died, was buried, rose from the dead, and ascended to heaven, etc.) weren't true until the New Testament was penned? Was the Bible Truth that Jesus is God somehow not true until it was written in the New Testament that Jesus is God? Was the Bible Truth that Jesus raised Himself from the dead somehow not true until the New Testament was penned? The penning of the New Testament didn't cause any of those Bible Truths to be true.
True, but the New Testament was true even before it was penned.The New Testament had not been penned.
This is the real word Pope Francis used. We cradle Evangelicals know how important it is to read it in the original language:

Does this translate for anybody else? It doesn't even translate in the translator I'm using. Because it is hacked by socialist, communist, feminist, Leftist ideologues and propagandists. Does your translator translate this word for you, accurately? Mine is just blank. It won't translate it.
True, but the New Testament was true even before it was penned.
Didn't anybody?But how did anybody know about it? before it was penned?

Didn't anybody?
Luke 1:1 Forasmuch as many have taken in hand to set forth in order a declaration of those things which are most surely believed among us...
Which apostles?Right.
$$ Lu 1:2
Even as they delivered them unto us, which from the beginning were eyewitnesses, and ministers of the word;
Who are "they"? They're the Apostles, right?
$$ Lu 1:3
It seemed good to me also, having had perfect understanding of all things from the very first, to write unto thee in order, most excellent Theophilus,
$$ Lu 1:4
That thou mightest know the certainty of those things, wherein thou hast been instructed.
So what is the New Testament? It's a record of what the Apostles taught, right?
Of the (v. 1) "many [who] have taken in hand to set forth in order a declaration of those things which are most surely believed among us" -- the "they" of verse 2 -- perhaps some were apostles. Luke doesn't give the names of which persons he is referring to, here.Right.
$$ Lu 1:2
Even as they delivered them unto us, which from the beginning were eyewitnesses, and ministers of the word;
Who are "they"? They're the Apostles, right?
It is truth. It is truths, true propositions -- about persons, places, and other things.$$ Lu 1:3

Luke, in the New Testament passage you quoted, is teaching through it the historical truth that "they delivered them unto us, which from the beginning were eyewitnesses, and ministers of the word". That part of the NT is a record of Luke teaching what Luke taught. Is Luke one of those whom you term "the Apostles"? If he's not, then the NT is partly a record of what a person(s) besides those whom you term "the Apostles" taught.It's a record of what the Apostles taught, right?
Here is some New Testament:No argument. But how did anybody know about it? before it was penned?
