Christ is the Rock, He will build who's church? HIS church, that is what the text says. If he were referring to Peter, He would have said, You are Peter, and on YOU I will build my church. Peter is NOT the foundation of the church, Christ is.
Before we go deeper into this, address the pope issue FIRST. You keep going down rabbit trails to avoid addressing questions. Enough.Peter was not a pope, read 1 Peter 5:1 { The elders which are among you I exhort, who am also an elder, and a witness of the sufferings of Christ, and also a partaker of the glory that shall be revealed} he was an elder, Gr. sympresbyteros- meaning 'title of leadership in the church', like pastor, preacher. Where is the office of pope found and mandated in the Bible? Remember, pope means 'father' {which Peter does not claim to be, because he knows the command found in Matthew 23:9} which takes us back to Mat. 23:9, do not call anyone on earth your father...Why does your church disregard the word of God for the sake of tradition? What did Jesus mean when He commanded that we call NO ONE on earth father? Another point, Peter was married, how could he be a pope if he was married? |

You do not understand the biblical definition of 'church', ekklesia which means called out ones from all walks of life and all parts of the world. It is NOT a denomination, you associate church with buildings and denominations. The true church of Jesus Christ is not bound by denominations or buildings, I am the church, anyone born from above is the church of Jesus Christ.NO MORE RABBIT TRAILS!! Lets try again... Peter was not a pope, read 1 Peter 5:1 { The elders which are among you I exhort, who am also an elder, and a witness of the sufferings of Christ, and also a partaker of the glory that shall be revealed} he was an elder, Gr. sympresbyteros- meaning 'title of leadership in the church', like pastor, preacher. Where is the office of pope found and mandated in the Bible? Remember, pope means 'father' {which Peter does not claim to be, because he knows the command found in Matthew 23:9} which takes us back to Mat. 23:9, do not call anyone on earth your father...Why does your church disregard the word of God for the sake of tradition? What did Jesus mean when He commanded that we call NO ONE on earth father? Another point, Peter was married, how could he be a pope if he was married? And please, use the word of God to back your words, or don't bother responding. |

continued from previous post... 270. Eusebius, bishop at Caesarea, called the Father of ecclesiastical history, gives an account of the persecution of Emperor Diocletian whose edict required that all churches be destroyed and the Scriptures burned. He lists all the books of the New Testament. He was commissioned by Constantine to have transcribed fifty copies of the Bible for use of the churches of Constantinople.
185-254. Origen, born at Alexandria, names all the books of both the Old and New Testaments.
165-220. Clement, of Alexandria, names all the books of the New Testament except Philemon, James, 2 Peter and 3 John. In addition we are told by Eusebius, who had the works of Clement, that he gave explanations and quotations from all the canonical books.
160-240. Turtullian, contemporary of Origen and Clement, mentions all the New Testament books except 2 Peter, James and 2 John.
135-200. Irenaeus, quoted from all New Testament books except Philemon, Jude, James and 3 John.
100-147. Justin Martyr, mentions the Gospels as being four in number and quotes from them and some of the epistles of Paul and Revelation.

Catholics often boast that the Bible was written by Catholics, e.g., "All the books of the New Testament were written by Catholics." (The Bible is a Catholic Book, p. 14). When we consider the word "catholic" as meaning "universal," we readily admit that the writers were "catholic" in that sense; they were members of the church universal--the church of Christ which is described in the New Testament Scriptures (Col. 1:18; Rom. 16:16). However, we firmly deny that the writers of the New Testament were members of the Roman Catholic Church as we know it today. The Roman Catholic Church was not fully developed until several hundred years after the New Testament was written. In fact, it can be shown that the New Testament books were gathered into one volume and were in circulation long before the Catholic Church claims to have taken its action in 390 at the council of Hippo. In the following we list some of the catalogues of the books of the Bible which are given by early Christian writers. 326. Athanasius, bishop at Alexandria, mentions all of the New Testament books.
315-386. Cyril, bishop at Jerusalem, gives a list of all New Testament books except Revelation.

So the catholic church gave us the bible? Better think again, read this. http://www.bible.ca/cath-bible-origin.htm You speak and spread heresy, not even realizing in your ignorance the wrath of God burns against you. Your dead religion is damning to the soul and you will find no takers here. Your agenda is as dangerous as that of the homosexual agenda. The Roman Catholic Church, in its pagan form, unofficially came into being in 312 A.D., at the time of the so-called "miraculous conversion" to Christianity of the Roman Emperor Constantine. Although Christianity was not made the official religion of the Roman Empire until the edicts of Theodosius I in 380 and 381 A.D., Constantine, from 312 A.D. until his death in 337, was engaged in the process of simultaneously building pagan temples and Christian churches, and was slowly turning over the reigns of his pagan priesthood to the Bishop of Rome. However, the family of Constantine did not give up the last vestige of his priesthood until after the disintegration of the Roman Empire -- that being the title the emperors bore as heads of the pagan priesthood -- Pontifex Maximus -- a title which the popes would inherit. (The popes also inherited Constantine's titles as the self-appointed civil head of the church -- Vicar of C |

Moses obeyed a command, the work you say he did was commanded by God for a purpose, Moses saved no one. Did people look to Moses to be healed, or did they look to the serpent on the pole? Why were the people bitten? Because they sinned. What was the cure? They were told to look to something, in this case, a serpent on a pole. Is Christ not who sinners look to for salvation? You fail to properly understand the teaching here, all you see is that somebody did this, and another did that, and that's why they were saved. That is all surface understanding, but it isn't at all what is being taught. Works save no one, only trusting solely in the finished work of what Christ has done will save.Were the people healed because Moses did a work, or were they healed because Moses obeyed God? God is behind all this... |
