To know God and make Him known

[Blake @WordProvesTrue]

Future posts will draw exclusively from the 66 books of the Protestant Bible (Genesis to Revelation) and will:

1. Quote the verse

2. Provide cross-references from other canonical books to clarify meaning.

3. Demonstrate how these passages harmonize, upholding the inerrancy of Scripture.

@CatholicDrip___ Equivocation on the word “saves”

[Blake @WordProvesTrue]

@IthoughtiwasU @ScottRoberts When you say evil do you mean it’s objectively wrong? Or just that it’s something you and most people strongly dislike?

[Blake @WordProvesTrue]

@IthoughtiwasU @ScottRoberts Would you say there’s evil in the world?

@TeaDaDeveloper @Dom1968Juan Who/what else is divine?

[Blake @WordProvesTrue]

First that’s an argument from silence. Which was exactly my point, you can’t definitively point to an oral teaching.

Second 4/6 of the teachings in that passage are explicitly taught in Scripture. But more importantly they’re called “elementary teachings” and the entire point of the context is to move on from them to maturity.

Third Catholics and Orthodox disagree on multiple aspects of baptism, and yet both claim oral tradition. If an oral apostolic teaching on baptism had actually been preserved, then wouldn’t you two churches agree on it?

[Blake @WordProvesTrue]

I keep the command in full. Paul’s not saying half of what he taught was oral and the other half written. There’s no distinction between what was oral/written.

The problem is you can’t point to a teaching given by word and not epistle. Can you point to something taught orally by Paul that isn’t recorded in Scripture?

@TeaDaDeveloper @Oluwadaniel_0 So Jesus is the Word in John 1?

[Blake @WordProvesTrue]

He was speaking to John, that’s not debatable.

“When Jesus then saw His mother, and the disciple whom He loved standing nearby, He *said to His mother, “Woman, behold, your son!” Then He *said to the disciple, “Behold, your mother!” From that hour the disciple took her into his home.”
John 19:26-27

@CatholicCoachP You concede. I accept your concession

[Blake @WordProvesTrue]

@TeaDaDeveloper @Oluwadaniel_0 I asked a question

[Blake @WordProvesTrue]

@AnneOfTheBooks I love responding to someone just to realize they’ve put out two more replies while I was typing mine

@Be_Like_JChrist In the next life, you cannot be perfect on earth

@BatmanJ27190203 @Be_Like_JChrist You're not even arguing with what I'm saying and don't have the reading comprehension to understand what verb tense the word "AM" is.

There's nothing more to be said to someone so obstinate. Goodbye

[Blake @WordProvesTrue]

You're ignoring the grammar. Past tense for his deliverance, PRESENT TENSE for his being a sinner.

Paul calls the Corinthians saints and then spends 16 chapters in 1 Corinthians correcting them! So if "saint" means sinless, why does Paul address those people as saints?

Saints are ones set apart for God.

@BrysonGray You'll do anything but answer a question
