    'Tradition'

    You make too many assumptions. 1. Not everyone lives in a "community" of any kind, much less faith. Some have very isolated occupations (like I did shortly after I was saved). Support from a "community" is not always available. 2. Your next assumption is, "that community" however defined, is...

    'Tradition'

    His Word is a "living Word." Hebrews 4:12 For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart. It is an "inspired...

    'Tradition'

    Jesus Christ is the Word. He spoke the world into existence by the power of his word. Everything he says is inspired. There is nothing that he does not say that is not without meaning or without authority. Of course he practices sola scriptura. Every word he speaks has the final say the...

    Purgatory

    No, not works. Here is what the scripture say: Ephesians 2:8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: 9 Not of works, lest any man should boast. 10 For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before...

    Sola Scriptura: The Sufficiency of Scripture

    It is not a couple of men. First, we are neither Calvinists nor Lutherans. I don't follow their theology so you don't get brownie points for referring to them. Refer to the Bible. We believe the Bible; you don't. You believe the Tradition of your church over the Bible, and thus are like any...

    Sola Scriptura: The Sufficiency of Scripture

    I remember you "complaining" that I had not answered some other posts of your posts either sufficiently enough or not at all. So I went back and began to answer them point by point. The most recent post was located here...

    Sola Scriptura: The Sufficiency of Scripture

    Apparently you do not know the truth. The Apocryphal books are not and never were part of the canon of Scripture. Let's consider some of the reasons why: The fifteen Apocryphal books which the Roman Catholics have included in their Bibles, and use as a source of doctrine, come from a...

    Sola Scriptura: The Sufficiency of Scripture

    Truth is not built on a lie. There is no evidence that Peter was in Rome, not even his remains are in Rome. Here are a couple of lies promoted by the RCC: 1. That Peter was the first Pope at Rome[,/b] and secondly, that he ruled from there for 25 years. That is far-fetched fable, myth. No...

    'Tradition'

    Here is what is needed to interpret Scripture: 1 Corinthians 2:11 For what man knoweth the things of a man, save the spirit of man which is in him? even so the things of God knoweth no man, but the Spirit of God. --Unless a man has the Spirit of God dwelling in him he cannot know Spiritual...

    Sola Scriptura: week-day-1 vs Bible Sabbath

    I never said any thing contrary. There is no present command to keep the sabbath today. The sabbath today is simply a shadow.

    Sola Scriptura: week-day-1 vs Bible Sabbath

    Then why are you disagreeing with me? Perhaps just to be disagreeable??

    Sola Scriptura: week-day-1 vs Bible Sabbath

    You are wrong GE. Neither are you omniscient, as you are inferring. You don't have all the confessions, cannot obtain all the confessions, have not read all the confessions, and will never have access to them all. Thus you speak out of your own lack of knowledge.

    Sola Scriptura: week-day-1 vs Bible Sabbath

    Are you my judge? Colossians 2:16 Let no one, then, judge you in eating or in drinking, or in respect of a feast, or of a new moon, or of sabbaths, 17 which are a shadow of the coming things, and the body is of the Christ; In this matter God has already declared no man shall judge me. God has...

    Sola Scriptura: week-day-1 vs Bible Sabbath

    Who are you to misinterpret what Jesus said. Paul correctly says that the law was nailed to the cross. Obviously then the Sabbath is done away with. The sabbath is only a shadow of that which was to come. Now that Christ is come, the shadow (Sabbath) is no more. These elementary truths are plain...

    Sola Scriptura: week-day-1 vs Bible Sabbath

    If all Baptists and their respective Confessions of Faith agreed, then there would only be one Confession of Faith wouldn't there? But as it is there are dozens of them! Why? Because Baptists disagree on many things. Thus when you say that my stance is against ALL Baptist Confessions, you are...

    Sola Scriptura: week-day-1 vs Bible Sabbath

    Jesus said "My commandments." He did not say the OT commandments. You are confused. There is nothing in honoring one's parents that would oblige them to keep the Sabbath. You have an obvious disconnect. The Sabbath was given to the nation of Israel. (Exodus 31) Read the chapter with...

    'Tradition'

    No common sense here is there? 1. When a book is written (any book), usually the content is first written and then the Table of Contents is written that the title of each chapter may correspond to its respective page no. It wouldn't work any other way. This is a no-brainier. 2. Secondly, even...

    Mary, Salvation, and Sin Offering

    It is true that there is a certain amount of speculation in the Book of Revelation. Having said that we look at the facts presented and we ask ourselves what fits this scenario best. 1. "She" sits on "seven hills" Revelation 17:9 And here is the mind which hath wisdom. The seven heads are seven...

    Mary, Salvation, and Sin Offering

    The history of the RCC is propaganda, and is not true history at all. It is full of lies and it is sanitized. The Bible has some good condensed truths about the RCC: Revelation 17:5 And upon her forehead was a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF...

    Mary, Salvation, and Sin Offering

    And then it is very easy to find those who superstitiously believe that Christ actually gave his body and blood to his disciples, as if they were all cannibalistic. The belief in transubstantiation is both pagan and superstitious. As the evidence states, it predates Christ as pagan in origin...
