    Did prophecy declare that the papacy .... I've checked 13 English bible translations and not one includes the word "papacy" nor do any contain "pope", "successor of saint Peter", "servant of the servants of God", "patriarch of the west" or any other title which is used to distinguish the bishop...

    What do you need to know to get to heaven?

    I am curious to know how a need to know squares with ideas like salvation is entirely of/from God with nothing of/from human kind in it?

    Church... A word of pagan origin -

    Have you read these passages? [Acts 26:28] And Agrippa said to Paul, "In a short time would you persuade me to be a Christian?" [1 Peter 4:16] Yet if anyone suffers as a Christian, let him not be ashamed, but let him glorify God in that name. [Acts 11:26] and when he had found him, he...

    I think I shall have something light and meat free today. It's Friday and my groceries are being delivered so (God willing) I will have a good selection of foods to choose from.

    Church... A word of pagan origin -

    It would be good if we'd managed to reach a fact compliant consensus that "church" is neither pagan nor ungodly. Facts can be convincing.

    Church... A word of pagan origin -

    What difference does it make who reads some blog article? The facts are as I summarised them. The blog cannot change them. Blogs are not holy scripture.

    What do you need to know to get to heaven?

    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.

    Once Saved Always Saved

    Some folk like to feel secure in their belief that they are saved and a lot of them choose to believe doctrines like "eternal security", "perseverance of the saints", and "once saved always saved". Each of the doctrines has a slightly different emphasis. Some will fight mightily to defend their...

    Church... A word of pagan origin -

    Alithis, The word ecclesia is present in the Greek text. It has never been removed. The translation of ecclesia as church is not translating another word. church is what ecclesia means. ecclesia is Greek & Latin while church is English. Of course church is borrowed from Greek indirectly. It...

    Church... A word of pagan origin -

    Alithis and amadeois , If you are concerned that ecclesia ought to be translated as "assembly" rather than as "church" okay. That's one way to translate it. In English the word "church" means the assembly of the first born enrolled in heaven the body of Christ the assembly of professing...

    An objective look into "the sinners prayer"

    In the Lord's prayer. It says: Matthew 6:9-13 [9] Therefore, you shall pray in this way: Our Father, who is in heaven: May your name be kept holy. [10] May your kingdom come. May your will be done, as in heaven, so also on earth. [11] Give us this day our life-sustaining bread. [12] And...

    The unwritten mysteries of the church.

    The first century does not have a halo surrounding it. The early centuries of Christian history are important and supply profound teaching from the fathers and from the apostles yet we live 2000 years later and the development of doctrine did not cease when the year 101 AD was reached. I reject...

    Church... A word of pagan origin -

    The scriptures do call the people of God both the temple of the Holy Spirit and the house of God so Alithis' claim that it is not the word used by Christ and the apostles is not true. Hebrews 10:19-22 [19] Therefore, brethren, since we have confidence to enter the sanctuary by the blood of...

    How can Satan take away the daily sacrifice?

    The daily sacrifice was taken away by the representatives of Antiochus III acting on his orders. That happened in the second century BC. Daniel's words appear to be about that event. Daniel 8:11 And even unto the prince of the host it magnified itself] it not only mounted to the stars, but in...

    An objective look into "the sinners prayer"

    The sinner's prayer appears to be okay on the whole. The theology that is behind it for some people is bad theology but the prayer itself seems okay. It says something like this, right? Dear Lord Jesus, I know that I am a sinner, and I ask for Your forgiveness. I believe You died for my sins and...
