What does the Apocalypse of saint John the theologian say about three angels?
Revelation 8:13 And I saw, and I heard the voice of a lone eagle flying through the midst of heaven, calling with a great voice: "Woe, Woe, Woe, to the inhabitants of the earth, from the remaining voices of the three...
The current view of the way the universe works in the tiny dimensions of quantum mechanics is shown in the picture below. There are three groups of things with six members in each group thus 6 & 6 & 6
So perhaps the mark of creation is a finger print of fundamental particles.

Is there a bare minimum of doctrines that one must know, understand, and accept as true in order to please God and get to heaven?
As an aside Catholics do not teach that everybody needs to know, understand, and believe some set of doctrines in order to please God and be received into heaven.
Pro 6:16-19 [16] Six things there are that the Lord hates, and the seventh, his soul detests: [17] haughty eyes, a lying tongue, hands that shed innocent blood, [18] a heart that devises the most wicked thoughts, feet running swiftly unto evil, [19] a deceitful witness bringing forth...
I am not really sure which forum a post like this ought to be in. It is about a journey to faith more than about the specific content of the Faith.
The journey is my own. It is, of necessity, a summarised story. It starts when I was young. A little kiddy.
My first personally remembered...
It seems that tiny vacuum tubes - or a technology like/based-upon them - may be able to improve computer performance now that silicon transistor based computers are encountering quantum-electron-tunnelling electron leakage causing errors and excessive heat on sub 10 nano-meter chip components.
Some of you will reject what the early church fathers wrote as having any authority for you and your beliefs. Some of you will not. I thought this was an interesting passage from saint Basil the Great.
Of the beliefs and practices whether generally accepted or publicly enjoined which are...
I have some conversations in CH and in some other places that follow this pattern
I say something about God or the Church or Heaven or Hell or whatever seems to be a topic of interest
My interlocutors say "Well that's not biblical"
I respond with a passage from the holy scriptures or with...
Who is God?
I believe in God ...
who is the God in whom we believe?
God is the Father almighty. What comes first in the creed is God's fatherhood, not his might. I believe in God the Father almighty. Why does the creed say the Father? Is it telling us about the most holy Trinity? Yes, in...
God is our father and he created all things not only for his own glory and for his good pleasure (as some assert) but by his knowledge and will because he knows the faithful and wills them to be his adult children forever not only serving him as obedient servants but as sons and daughters whose...
In the holy scriptures God is "Our Father who is in heaven", in the time of William of Occam God is "the sovereign ruler of all and his will orders all things", by the time of the reformation God is a "Judge whose Law is so stringent that none can satisfy it and all are dead in sins", in the age...
What part (or parts) of your church service is worship and what part (or parts) as teaching, praise, prayer and so forth?
Catholic masses have this kind of structure:
Entrance of the book of the gospel and the ministers who will preside over the celebration and their assistants
Greeting of the...
Where does the Law of God come from?
Is it derived from God's eternal attributes?
Is it an expression of God's character?
Is it the product of his infinite knowledge of his creatures and his will concerning them?
Or is it from somewhere else?
Do you believe that the faithful will share the divine nature and what do you think it means for a creature to become a god (not God almighty but a god)?
2Peter 1:4 Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature, having...
