Thankfully intellectually honest Baptists, such as James McGoldrick who was once himself a believer in Baptist secessionism concede that this view is bogus. McGoldrick writes:

The Church of England is NOT Baptist. The Church of England is Anglican. And, your first post IS a 'garbled mess'.

N.T. Wright, one of sharpest theologians of our time (Anglican), is an excellent source to understand what can take place in the lives of those who avail themselves to the sacraments of Holy Baptism and the Eucharist.

Lutherans as well as Anglicans believe in the Real Presence of Christ the Eucharisti. And, contrary to what you may have heard, Lutherans do not believe in consubstantiation While the term "consubstantiation" is sometimes used to describe the Lutheran view of the Eucharist, Lutherans...

Either way, the Greek still doesn't support the argument that Jesus was really talking about Himself as the rock for the reasons I already stated. BTW, Raymond Brown was professor of New Testament studies at Union Theological Seminary in NYC when I was there in the late 70's and I was still a...

Houston, we have a problem! One example is 'Father Abraham'. As a Baptist, my Sunday School class loved to sing: 'Father Abraham had many sons, many sons had Father Abraham, etc.' This excerpt is borrowed from Catholic Answers forum. I usually don't do this but I am under time constraints...

Nope, Paul’s rebuke did not impugn Peter’s authority. If a pope’s behavior causes scandal, he should be rebuked by someone. Catherine of Sienna rebuked the pope in her day, and she is regarded as a doctor of the Church. As the Catechism points out in Paragraph 891, “The gift of infallibility...

I disagree. in Galatians 2:11-14, Paul rebuked Peter publicly for acting hypocritically, not for a doctrinal error, but for failing to live out his own teachings regarding table fellowship with Gentile Christians, a matter of conduct, not doctrine, which is why the Catholic position is that this...

Because this is not a doctrinal issue but a behavior issue. Papal authority does NOT mean that a pope will not make behavioral mistakes. John Paul II went to confession DAILY. Most evangelicals mistakenly believe that the Catholic Church teaches that popes are sinless. Paul emphasizes that...

Glad you mentioned James White. I have also watched his debates with Catholics over the years. Always done respectfully. Here is one addressing the OP:

And, even if it had been in Greek, I showed why the petros/petras position doesn't hold water. You are just choosing to ignore it. Even as student at Cal Baptist University that position was shown to be bogus

Scripture reference please? There are no original manuscripts, just copies.I can give other references to show Matthew was originally written in Aramaic if you like.

No, kindly re-read my post regarding the Petros/Petra argument. I addressed this and you chose to ignore it or didn't read it.

So, the Bible would have to state that the original penning of the gospel of Matthew was in Aramaic? Really? And, what about the other points you are ignoring in my posts.

And, in anticipation of your post that will claim there is no evidence that St.Matthew was ever penned in Aramaic: Around 180 Irenaeus of Lyons wrote that

St. Matt 16:18 "And so I say to you, you are Peter (Cephas), and upon this rock (Cephas) I will build my church, 13 and the gates of the netherworld shall not prevail against it."9 I will give you the keys to the kingdom of heaven. 14 Whatever you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven; and...

Lol, where did you get the idea there's 'a lot' of Catholics here? You can count them on one hand. I think we have been given opportunity to debate on a Baptist board and I have appreciated that for years now. At one time, the only way for us to participate on this board was to be...

I was raised in a Baptist church where 'easy believism' had the pastor's son 'walking the aisle' four different times from the time he was seven to eighteen. Each time the pastor explained that he had 'made a decision for Christ in the past, but just didn't really mean it'. Each time resulted...

Typical SDA drbble. Meanwhile demonic SDA abortion mills keep killing babies.
