Sounds like the Good News of the crucifixion. That's Paul's Gospel, no?

But you have in Hebrews explicitly to not forsake gathering together, you have Our Lord saying wherever two or more are gathered together, and you have Acts and Paul saying Sundays. It's like the rainbow of colors coming out from a prism with white light shining into it. The white shining...

I'm going to take another bite of the apple ... again. Isn't it interesting that in baptism, the water symbolizes or represents or means or signifies Christ's blood, but if Roman Catholic theology of the Eucharist is correct, then the chalice actually IS His actual blood? The water of baptism...

And thank the Lord for it. What's funny is that in reality, for this analogy to be right, there are a million (OK not a million, but a lot more than just one) stacks all labeled "Biblical Christianity", and if you added all those stacks together, it would make a far taller stack than Roman...

So do you not like the Sunday obligation?

I don't even know what you're talking about. All I know is I started a thread, arguing that the scandal and crisis of pederasty and pedophilia was not due to faggotry among the ministerial priests and bishops. I was roundly and conclusively shouted down. I licked my wounds, and considered...

Isaiah Yet it pleased the LORD to bruise him; he hath put him to grief: when thou shalt make his soul an offering for sin, he shall see his seed, he shall prolong his days, and the pleasure of the LORD shall prosper in his hand. 11 He shall see of the travail of his soul, and shall be...

So how did they do that? What was their primary argument? Calvinist professors would do the same for Calvinism too ofc, your point being that this is not abnormal, which I agree is true. Speaking of which, is it possible to set aside the question of early Hebrews appearing to say that the...

When was that?

They are both terms not found in Scripture but which are true anyway. The Church Jesus and His Apostles founded. I gave my reasons why. It's for clarification, identification, definition purposes. I am. But I wouldn't call it an ism if I had my druthers, but I don't, because there is...

So you are Seventh Day Adventist or no? You didn't answer the question.

It's fair to inquire about the uniform testimony of an entire discipline devoted to the study of the topic in question. Once you've determined a whole entire discipline is uniformly agreed on something within their purview, OK. But now in order to be responsible you have to entertain the...

ofc. I wouldn't. He just called it the Church. It's you all other branches of Christian tradition which have made it necessary just to make sure we're not being ambiguous. We can't just say we're the Church simpliciter, because "Church" can and does mean so many different things to so many...

That's just the term. The Real Presence, meaning, the ontological presence of Christ in the Eucharist, not just His symbolic presence.

The Church which Jesus and His Apostles founded. I'd just assume call it the Church. But there are branches now, so the need for qualification and clarification.

Like Trinity.

Roman Catholicism.

Before it had to be qualified with "Roman" to distinguish it from other branches who also wanted to call themselves the Catholic Church (a term which was first used by Ignatius of Antioch in like AD 105 or so). The Church Jesus and the Apostles founded. Whoever needed that qualifier in order...

I'm supposing it had a beginning, I'm asking, when was that?
