Sign of presdestination!

The word of God (2 Tim 3:16) is the object of faith, not the word of man.
Please provide a basis for the current New Testament canon that is independent of the Apostolic tradition transmitted though the Roman Catholic Church. (Pope of rome council of rome 381-2)

The New Testament in its present form would not exist without the apostolic Church.

We must believe and obey both Christ and the church He founded on the apostles (16:18-19) to teach and sanctify all men unto eternal salvation! (Matt 28:19)

(Not scripture alone)
Sacred Scripture according to the churches canon and interpretation? Yes! Scripture alone? No!

Heb 1:1-2 God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets,

2 Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things by, by whom also he made the worlds;

“Not by scripture alone”!

That’s the nail in the coffin of “Sola scriptura” it is dead and buried, “false doctrine” the doctrine of demons like all the sola’s!
It’s

For the law was given by Moses, but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ. Jn 1:17

Jesus Christ is the way, the truth, and the life! Jn 14:6

And this extends to His apostolic church, Christ and His church are one and inseparable! Acts 9:4 Jn 15:5 eph 5:32 acts 2:42

One shepherd and one fold! Jn 10:16

The truth of the Christian faith and the church are of divine origin and cannot be reformed!

And this extends to His apostolic church, Christ and His church are one and inseparable! Acts 9:4 Jn 15:5 eph 5:32 acts 2:42

Apostles have power to forgive mens sins! Jn 20:23

Jesus Christ is the truth! Jn 14:6
The apostolic church is the pillar of truth! 1 Tim 3:16

For the apostolic authority in Holy church decided and decreed (bound on earth / bound in heaven) the canon of Scripture, and is the only authentic interpreter of scripture!

The Christian faith is revealed by Christ!

Jesus Christ gave His apostles the fullness of truth, the apostolic church our mother and teacher is commanded by Him to teach and to sanctify with her sacraments (the promise of the spirit) all men unto eternal salvation! We are commanded to believe and obey! Matt 28:19 1 Jn 4:6

How can the Protestant concept: “sacred scripture is the only infallible source of truth” be true? There must be some infallible source that must tell us what is the canon of scripture & has authority to interpret scripture!

It is impossible to reject the church or her teaching without rejecting Christ who founded the church and revealed her teaching!

You cannot reject the kingdom established by the king and say I obey and submit to the king!

Jesus Christ founded the new covenant church to teach and sanctify (baptize) all men unto eternal salvation! (Matt 28:19) with His authority to bind all Christians to believe the truth He has revealed!

Christ and His church are one!
((Inseparable unity))
Acts 9:4 Lk 10:16 eph 5:32 Isa 53:5 Jn 15:5 eph 5:24

Only Christ has authority to establish the church! Matt 16:18-19
One church! Jn 10:16 All others are sects “full of errors” “the tradition of men”! The new covenant Church is the eternal city of God! Household of faith! The pillar and ground of TRUTH! 1 Tim 3:15 Founded by Christ alone! Matt 16:18 on Peter and the apostles! Eph 2:20 Lk 22:29

Wow! St. Bernardine of Siena himself! (herself?) I mean, how much authority can you get than THAT!!!?

This makes me think of the Children of Israel telling Moses to speak to them instead of them having to deal directly with God, who terrified them. Does Mary make it easier for you guys to deal?

How much further away from Scripture can you get???
Please read my thread on the “new covenant” in the Catholic forum

The problem with these posts is that a lot of what is said and the scriptures presented are on the surface, are true. The deception is that everytime the poster uses the word "church" he means something entirely different than what is biblical. Therefore, they are no longer true. What is always meant in these posts is not the church, but the Catholic Church. A denomination full of heretical teachings which make it not the Christian Faith---faith as a noun, that contains in it particular biblical content.

The Catholic denomination replaces the sola scriptura of the Reformation with scripture as interpreted by the Pope as the sola interpreter of scripture, and the Catholic heretical traditions (doctrines of men) as lording it over the scriptures by naming itself as the arbitrators as to what it says. In the Catholic tradition they and their hierarchy are the mediators between man and Christ, and only through their heretical traditions can one ever be given eternal life.

Let the reader beware.

Hi Don

Remember living abiding words of Christ the husband has meaning attached. Otherwise, how could his wife the church obey if no meaning is needed? Just scratch

Is Christ hen pecked?

Peter in Mathew 16 took away the power to obey Christ. He rebuked the heavenly father and forbade the Son of man Jesus from doing the powerful will of the unseen Holy Father, Holy See, our vicar Christ, our Holiness, Abba Father

The tower of Babble was destroyed long ago

Please show when, why and where the oral traditions of dying mankind they call "Apostolic tradition" transmitted though the Roman Catholic Church. is a higher tradition then all things written in the law and prophets (.sola scriptura)

Remember apostles sent messenger errand boy, UPS, FED X, Western union, Pony Express. Myself my wife's favorite apostle.

Figure of speech a parable signified using the temporal things seen to give the gospel understanding not seen by human eye . Law of faith(power)

Same Catholics (law of the legion of fathers dying mankind oral traditions men who hated sola scriptura)

Their law venerate puff up dying flesh one against another puffed up venerable ones they lord it over the faith understanding of the non- venerable show watchers

They walked away faithless no faith that could please God unseen. It comes from Christ not seen not the dying creation seen

Just what is it that you have not received freely from the hand of God? If you are why act as if the dying fathers are the cannon assemblers

God is able to assemble his own. Easly :"let there be"

Not Peter our brother in the Lord the seral denier.

1 Corinthians 4:5;7Therefore judge nothing before the time, until the Lord come, who both will bring to light the hidden things of darkness, and will make manifest the counsels of the hearts: and then shall every man have praise of God.;And these things, brethren, I have in a figure transferred to myself and to Apollos for your sakes; that ye might learn in us not to think of men (dying mankind) above that which is written,(sola scriptura) that no one of you be puffed up (venerated) for one against another.;For who (not the pope) maketh thee to differ from another? and what hast thou that thou didst not receive? now if thou didst receive it, why dost thou glory, as if thou hadst not received it?

Yes or no ?

Is Wycliff the author of Eph 5:29-32, where the born again (Jn 3:3-8) into eternal life by the Holy Spirit are the body of Christ, the church (Eph 5:29-32)?

Yes but the church is also visible authority of the apostles and their successor with Christ matt 28:20 Jn 15:5 in hierarchical jurisdiction

All believers are those disciples of Christ.

Jesus is the vine, all believers and professors are the branches (the kingdom, containing both wheat and tares), the false professors eventually being burned.

Do you have authority to teach?
Read scripture?
Copy or translate scripture?
Receive holy communion?
Forgive mens sins?
The ministry of reconciliation?
No! Christ appointed apostles and sent them with His authority matt 28:18 lead by the spirit Jn 16:13 commanding them to teach and sanctify all men! Mart 28:19 acts 1:1-8

Where does the New Testament give you this authority?

Christians must be taught

I need authority from somewhere to believe Scripture?

Or, are you saying I need authority to believe only Scripture.

I am free to believe anything that is in agreement with Scripture.

Anything not in agreement with the word of God written (2 Tim 3:16) is a doctrine of man.

Demonstrate that any mere humans have the authority to forgive sin against God. I don't even see the Apostles doing it. Jesus alone, God himself, has authority. Do you think sin can be forgiven with a mere word, maybe a hail Mary or two, and a flip of the hand? Why not add in there, indulgences! God probably won't mind, right?

Curiously, @donadams , nor any other RCC proponent, has yet, to my knowledge, show how any supposed apostolic succession transferred apostleship from the NT apostles to the current RCC magisterium.

I'm wondering how many of them get a nice position and think to themselves, "Y'know, we've got a really good gig going here!"
