@M2Jrh The Bible language is clear for this argument. Many times Jesus says this bread is my body. In no way does any language say those words are symbolic.
@_Ochiedike LOL, so is atheism! In fact atheism takes more faith than any religion. You claim that everything magically came from nothing. That is not logically viable.
@glenn_tunes It’s not a democracy at all. But it might be the birthplace of a republic. The demoncrats are the ones who keep saying democracy is under threat because of MAGA.
@Zarish5062 One kid is dead but both are destroyed! What is the real purpose of this argument? Detract from the vile nature of abortion or amplify the vile nature of pedophilia? Comparisons always do one or the other.
@GodlessEngineer Slavery could be better than death for instance. Maybe better than letting them be slaves to a non believer who abuses them. This is too easy really. You have the worst example of slavery imbedded in your mind with no sense of how to live as a Christian.
@Truth_matters20 Obedience is necessary! Without obedience your faith is dead. Obedience requires actions which are works. Cause or effect is a useless argument the Pharisees would have made.
@renewingprotest You do exactly what you accuse the Catholic Church of doing. You literally described what the reformers did, take out Rome and install “me”.
@Truth_matters20 No Christian’s WORSHIP Jesus they pray to and for every one they can. Including Jesus, the Holy Spirit, God the father, Mary, the saints, even their neighbors and friends. We worship with sacrifice, and we only offer sacrifice to God.
@renewingprotest From the person who spews hatred for the office? Do you admire him too? He is the most known but not admired. Pope John Paul 2 was the best chance you pope haters had for the pope to be the antichrist. It passed you by.
@renewingprotest That is not even true with some of the people that spoke with God in the Bible. They had questions and God answered them. Have you read the whole thing?
@renewingprotest@garrettham_esq LOL you have created the best religion of all in your head. If it’s not institutional then it’s nothing at all. “My church” and “the church” were used by Jesus and the apostles 350 years before the Bible was assembled.
@HabitualLinest@renewingprotest The one they chose! Each Protestant becomes their own authority, their own pope, their own truth. Every single faith based argument eventually gets to authority. Mathew 16:19. Where is that authority now? Find it and you have the church that Jesus established.
