I ask a lot of questions... It is an outside the box consideration, no question! The question never occurred to you? Oh well... Adam was not mature in God when he sinned - He was but a few days into his walk... God gave him the Garden so he could grow to maturity therein, and once the...

This little (5min) query on where the Bible came from should prove fruitful: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OTEe7IKKYII Arsenios

I have found the reverse - I got sucked into a prayer circle for the healing of a guy with throat cancer, and the leader made sure I did not get a chance to say anything, and I thought the whole thing was pretty bogus - They were Charismatics - So I just quietly prayed for God to have Mercy on...

I said it was written for beginners... Here is the first paragraph... Does it sound like it is for the mature? Chapter 1. There are two ways, one of life and one of death, but a great difference between the two ways. The way of life, then, is this: First, you shall love God who made you...

So we can safely just remove that verse from the Bible, Menno? You know which verse, don't you? The verse that tells us Baptism is for the Remission of sins?? I thought you believed the Bible, Meno... So now you are re-writing it?? ANATHEMA!!! may it NEVER be so!! Not MY Menno!! :)...

You ignored the term "descriptively" in favor of your fallen Adamic logic of "literally" vs "figuratively"... You have fallen into the "fallacy of the false alternative"... It is either RED or GREEN, you say... And a child points out it is MAGENTA with GOLD lettering... You are relying on...

I believe Christ... I do not know about communion wafers... "I will partake of the Cup of Salvation... And I will call upon the Name of the Lord..." No ambiguity here... Descriptive... It can be unto Salvation and unto damnation... The Body of our Lord needs discernment... Paul wrote of...

Yes He did... Joh 6:51 I am the living bread which came down from heaven: if any man eat of this bread, he shall live for ever: and the bread that I will give is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world. Arsenios

I think the Bible tells us that they were "hidden in Christ"... They were not proclaiming to the world that they were eating His Flesh and drinking His Blood... Not in a pagan dominated culture... They kept that to themselves... Arsenios

If I had claimed what you say, it WOULD BE hogwash... A.

Was the LXX translated from the OT Hebrew Canon by OT Jews before Christ? Is the Masoretic Text a late creation of the Scattered Jews after Christ? Are Masoretic Jews Christian or non-Christian? Simple questions... Conclusion: The LXX is the Bible of Christ and the Apostles... The...

The Didache is written for beginners, on how they are to approach the Cup and the Gifts... It was written so early that at that time, the Real Presence of God in the Gifts was being kept secret from the world around them... It seems to be re-discovering that secrecy in these late days... It...

This is cheap rhetorical theatrics... I mean, there was perhaps a guy in a prison cell in Barcelona in 1093 who did not believe in the Real Presence... How ya gonna prove there wasn't? Sophomores have the wisdom to laugh at this argument... When he writes that the Real Presence was believed...

The problem with that is that the Councils are world councils from many states... Unlike the RCC in the West post-Schism, where Church and State were united... So Egypt and Rome and Jerusalem and Antioch and Constantinople were 5 States... At least pre-Schism they were... So that while locally...

This is a guided tour of the Service of the Divine Liturgy in terms of its unfolding before you, explaining what you are seeing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XDUMf7oFt2s Arsenios

You got that right! What a mess... Arsenios

Oh, you will find the stains of blood on Orthodox Christians - You simply will not find them justified by Orthodox Counciliar Rulings... Rome, you see, justified the Inquisition... Arsenios

You need the names of 90,000,000 people?? Then the claim will be proven? Without those names in the post, you will not be persuaded? You win... Congratulations... I guess... Arsenios

Just because it was later dropped merely makes it a textual variant... The EOC has it, but I have never heard of your Ps. 152... Did you make it up? Someone might have removed 151... We have been praying the Septuagint Psalter for 2000 years now and counting... It is our hymnal and prayer...
