Awesome. Of course you being so powerful against water baptism, and it being based upon your Dispensationalism, and that being based upon Scripture, then 1 Co 10:17 For we being many are one bread, and one body: for we are all partakers of that one bread, means that you must find "that one...

Evangelism is preaching the Gospel, the object of evangelism is more Christians, Christians are the Church, the Church is at minimum her institutions, and her most salient institutions are baptism and Holy Communion, the former of which is celebrated occasionally or sporadically, it's variable...

I knew what you were talking about. It's not just mine though, it's the "interpretation" of the bishops. Bald assertion. There's also ONE bread---did you miss that? 1 Co 10:17 For we being many are one bread, and one body: for we are all partakers of that one bread. When people not of a...

Especially when including evolution as the story of our origin, I disagree that "fairy tale" is the genre. To include that story in that genre doesn't work because it's unrealistic even for a fairy tale. That story belongs in a genre like "musing of the institutionally insane".

I didn't deny that. I don't deny that. That's not what I said. It's your interpretation. I don't have any obligation to accept or believe it, not a moral one, not a logical one, nothing. I believe the Apostles, since they were commissioned to teach what the Lord Jesus Christ wants me to...

Are they revealed by the Law, whether or not it is served, or are they only revealed by serving the Law, and not by the Law without qualification? This is a clarifying question. Do you believe that Paul's vision for the Church, when writing Galatians and others, was perpetual Sunday Mass...

Invite people to Mass.

I understand that you're not a bishop, and so therefore you do not hold the office created by the Apostles that is tasked with preserving and transmitting and teaching what the Apostles taught, so furthermore I don't have to even entertain any bald assertions from you on the nature of my...

Agreed. That's what I said.

"All white people are born racist"---come on. Then we're all born racist, every last one of us. Racism is because of a category error. Racists believe that their own race usually is in a category of men all by itself, and everybody not in that fictional category isn't as equal as those in the...

If you are "putting to death the deeds of the body", can you still covet, for example? Do "all who are being led by the Spirit" covet, for example? If you are not "putting to death the deeds of the body", have you "received a spirit of slavery leading to fear again"?

They really believe that we're like going to turn into Venus, don't they? That's the only thing that makes any sense as regards their urgency. We are posing no risk or threat to the habitability of earth. But this is how they all act. They're delirious.

It's wherever you study the words bishop, overseer, elder, pastor in the New Testament. When the context indicates that it's an officer of the Church (the Body of Christ), then read up. All the biblical claims for the bishops' duties would simply indicate that they are responsible for the...

There's nonbinary though, that's a thing, a horrific thing. "Intersex". Grizzly stuff. 'Wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy's kids. Percentages of incidence are low in terms of 1-100% (thankfully it is much lower than 1%), but in a typical professional football or baseball stadium, sold-out...

l o l. Come on man. You can't "in so many words" and "literally" in the same sentence. They're mutually exclusive. They cancel each other out. They conflict. They contradict one another. The pope is the bishop of Rome, and the last office held by the Apostle Saint Peter before he died...

We're obligated or required to go to Mass once a week plus Christmas and some other days that don't fall on Sundays, although sometimes holy days that are Saturday or Monday are fulfilled in the Sunday Mass. But it's misnomer to call them holy days like the Sabbath was a full day, Mass can be...

I think it's just a stubborn, humble thing, rather than a children, adult thing. We choose whether to be humble or stubborn, it's not foisted upon us, it's our choice, and kids can choose to be humble just as well as adults can.

The law the law. The law. 1 - "Gentiles who have not the law", that's the law that the Gentiles don't have, because they're Gentiles, which is not Israelite, to whom the law, was actually given. 2 -"What the law requires", the moral aspects of the law. 3 -"They (Gentiles) do not have the law"...

Immoral behavior violates our rights. It's unjustified and immoral, to authorize police to harass and penalize you because you make different life choices that are not against the law, but that I think are unethical. Basically this: https://theologyonline.com/threads/ethics-and-morals.55283/...

That is literally what I already said to you. You can't change hearts and minds, but you can make immoral behavior very expensive through the force of law. And if that doesn't work then violence. You have to use violence if the evildoers refuse to settle for anything less.
