Seventh-day Adventists. Fifth largest Christian denomination World Wide

[Yeshua1]

Lets assume its the usurper rather then the genuine. Who are the genuine prior to 380ad, Give us the names of these holy folks who directly followed the apostles and practice legit Christianity.

All of the elect in Christ from the founding of the Church!

Anabaptist were not "faith aloners" nor OSAS. Which is why you are no anabaptist.

The "CLASSIC" argument of reformers was Anabaptist believe being saved by WORKS.

John Calvin would drown Anabaptist.


The only thing in common you have is "believers" baptism.

ANA-BAPTIST, is a word, has meaning, not english origin. It means RE-BAPTIZER.


Of course someone ignorant of history, born in english western world who thinks Jesus was a born American, looks at the word ANABAPTIST and figures oh look there is my word BAPTIST......thats where we come from.

"....the untaught and unstable distort, as they do also the rest of the Scriptures, to their own destruction. " 2 Peter 3:16

.

Church of Rome denies the Cross, has a false Gospel that will not save, for it is the power of traditions of Man, not of God!

This is not a nullification, but the proper use of the binding and loosing power Jesus gave to those Christian leaders who remained on earth after He went to heaven. We also call the man married to our mothers Father, so according to you this would be subject to the same command of Christ, would it not?

What Christ is telling us here is not to look at any man as we look at our Father from heaven, the Creator of us all, who is the only one due worship and praise that's all. It is not a blanket admonition that we are never to use the word.



God bless!

1) Binding and loosing has ZERO to do with proper understanding of Scripture.

2) Jesus is VERY specific with His words, of course He would be seeing how He is God..."call no man your father upon the earth: for one is your Father, which is in heaven."

It doesn't take much effort to apply this exactly as Jesus put it. We know from Jesus' other comments about a "father" that He would not be speaking about one's dad, so that is eliminated right quickly. This leaves only one other option, which He also clarified in His statement, which is, "do not call any man "father" upon the earth" ...in the sense of a spiritual matter..."for one is your Father, which is in heaven".

This is a perfect example of how the RCC is horribly wrong about one of the simplest commands of Christ.

This thread is about to end. We can pick up on another thread if you like.

In the mean time, Google: Hosius and Anabaptists. There is a lot of midnight reading.

Even so, come, Lord Jesus.
