No, the 3000 at Pentecost(the original Acts 2:38 church), was there from the beginning.You can't have it BOTH ways, Einstein.
Either the Catholic Church has been around since the beginning - or you CAN'T blame ANYTHING you disagree wuth PRIOR to the 4th century on the Catholic Church.
In the depths of your ignorance and dishonesty - you've painted yourself into a corner.
This is what happenes when you LIE as oftren as YOU do, Einstein . . .
No, if they are separate and/or distinct, they have individual divine nature's too.4 nature's?
Divine nature / human nature.
Three Divine Person's one divine nature.
A person is a rational being.
This is precisely the type of idiotic and contradictory response I expected from you.No, the 3000 at Pentecost(the original Acts 2:38 church), was there from the beginning.
The skippers of Acts 2:38(RCC) came hundreds of years later to stomp out the 3000 and Peter's former influence on future generations.
And they did a good job at deceiving the masses and forbidding mankind to obey Acts 2:38.
This was satan's strategy....he tried persecution out the gate for hundreds of years, but the blood of the martyrs became the seed of the church.
So, his new strategy was false doctrine and compromise via the RCC, which works unto this day.
There are not individual nature's. If there were we wouldn't have Adam's sin nature. . That which is naturally human is natural to every individual human person. Same is true for divine nature.No, if they are separate and/or distinct, they have individual divine nature's too.
We are separate and distinct with individual human nature's, similarly.
Add one portion of human nature to the 2nd person's divine nature and you get 4 natures, 3 God's and a human being in the Godhead...LOL
The RCC adopted the heretical idea of the "trinity of God".
It is like Darwin adopted his ideas and radicalized them.
The official doctrine of the RCC became "3 persons in 1 God", AKA 3=1...LOL.
It was the final draft in the RCC doctrine of the trinity.
The idea evolved.
Look, I can't help what the protestant RCC(that originally protested and ended Acts 2:38), and her sub protestant breakaway daughters did in the past.This is precisely the type of idiotic and contradictory response I expected from you.
FIRST, you say that the Biblival teaching of the Trinity was an invention of the "evil" Catholic Church. I sahowed you from the writings of Tertullian and Theophilus of Antioch that they were using the term "Trinity" in the SECOND century.
THEN, you say that the "evil" Catholic Church cam around HUNDREDS of years later and perverted everything.
Soooo - WHICH is it, Einstein? Didn't anybody ever teach you how to debate logically?
Go back and do some homework . . .
PS - the Martyrs you spoke of were ALL Catholics.
Here is what ONE of them wrote on the way to his execution . . .
Ignatius of Antioch (disciple of the Apostle John)
Follow your bishop, every one of you, as obediently as Jesus Christ followed the Father. Obey your clergy too as you would the apostles; give your deacons the same reverence that you would to a command of God. Make sure that no step affecting the Church is ever taken by anyone without the bishop’s sanction. The sole Eucharist you should consider valid is one that is celebrated by the bishop himself, or by some person authorized by him. Where the bishop is to be seen, there let all his people be; just as, wherever Jesus Christ is present, there is the Catholic Church (Letter to the Smyrneans 8:2 [A.D. 107]).
No, every being has a nature that dies with it.There are not individual nature's. If there were we wouldn't have Adam's sin nature. . That which is naturally human is natural to every individual human person. Same is true for divine nature.
The original church was the 3000 that obeyed Peter per Acts 2:38 at Pentecost.why are you deaf and blind?
matt 18:17 hear the church
1 Tim 3:15 church has the truth
Truth must be revealed by God, and in its fullness in the sacred deposit of faith by Christ to his church! Eph 4:5 Jude 1:3 and must be taught by the church, or proposed for our belief by the apostles!
Matt 28:19-20 Lk 1:4 Jn 20:21 acts 8:31 Rom 1:5 col 2:7 1 Tim 3:15
matt 18:17
Christ and His church are one! acts 9:4 Acts 5:32 Jn 15:1-5
Truth must be revealed by God thru Christ to His church (the apostles Jude 1:3) then must be proposed by the church, (Matt 28:19 gal 3:23) without error by the Holy Spirit! (Jn 16:13)
The evidence of true faith is humble subjection and obedience to Christ & His holy church!
The rule of faith for Christians is Jesus Christ Jn 14:6 and His church! Matt 18:17 acts 2:42 1 Tim 3:15
True Christians cannot listen to the errors of excommunicated heretics, but we listen faithfully to Christ, in the bosom of holy mother church, the only ark of salvation!
1 pet 3:20-21 matt 18:17 matt 16:18-19 matt 28:19-20 Jn 16:13 Jn 20:21-23
Truth must be revealed by God thru Christ to His church (the apostles Jude 1:3) then must be proposed by the church, (Matt 28:19 gal 3:23) without error by the Holy Spirit! (Jn 16:13)
Christ and His church are one! (Acts 9:4 eph 5:31 Jn 15:1-5)
Rejection of the one true church or its teaching is rejection of Christ and God!
Christ and His church are one! Acts 9:4 eph 5:32 Jn 8:12 & Matt 5:14
In other words - you realize now that you got your foot stuck so far down your throat that you can't LIE your way out of the LIES that I caught you in back in post #368.Look, I can't help what the protestant RCC(that originally protested and ended Acts 2:38), and her sub protestant breakaway daughters did in the past.
All of you are protestants and have NO remission of sins, nor had any of you Acts 2:38 protesters in history had remission of sin.
All of you are either under the Law or died under the Law.
All of you have been in league with one purpose...to stop Acts 2:38 at all cost.
What a gang.
It must be horrible to realize you have never had your sins remitted by disobeying Acts 2:38, huh?In other words - you realize now that you got your foot stuck so far down your throat that you can't LIE your way out of the LIES that I caught you in back in post #368.
Next time - get your history straight and you won't be so publicly humiliated like this . . .
The original church was the 3000 that obeyed Peter per Acts 2:38 at Pentecost.
....which you are not part of, as an Acts skipper.
It must be horrible to realize that you backed yourself into a corner with your idiotiuc LIES - which I exposed in post #368 for everyone to see.It must be horrible to realize you have never had your sins remitted by disobeying Acts 2:38, huh?
You need to fix it before it judges you.
The RCC will not be there to help you on that dreaded day.
Their day ends here....
Yes, the RCC started their own anarchist government to oppose and stomp out Acts 2:38.self government?
that’s spiritual anarchy
Yes, the RCC started their own anarchist government to oppose and stomp out Acts 2:38.
A bunch of radicals.
I exposed you to the fact that every sin you have ever committed is still hanging over you for your disobedience to Acts 2:38.It must be horrible to realize that you backed yourself into a corner with your idiotiuc LIES - which I exposed in post #368 for everyone to see.
Public humilliation CAN be redeeming.
Let's just hope you learned something from this . . .
