@ScriptureAlone2 You should know that not everything was written down. Much of it was taught orally and passed down through generations until it became established tradition.
@SoliDeoGloria_X It is clear someone does not truly value Scripture when they cherry-pick verses to fit their narrative. Have you actually read what John and Paul wrote? John explicitly stated that not everything Jesus did was written down (John 21:25), and Paul commanded believers to hold fast
@MJKelleyII True faith is obedience. Keep God’s commandments and do the Father's will. Faith never saves alone. Jesus told parables to make one truth unmistakable, you must prove your faith is alive before He rewards you with salvation. Faith doesn't stand alone.
@MJKelleyII Sounds like a narrative straight from Lucifer against the Catholic Church, full of deception, distortion, and hostility. The deceit is clearly on display.
BREAKING:
🇺🇸🇮🇷 The US is striking Iran again tonight
Iranian state news agency IRNA reports that Sirik, located in Iran's southern Hormozgan Province, was struck "by the enemy" minutes ago.
@MJKelleyII You see? GOOD WORKS! Living faith is active, not passive. Salvation is not a one-way ticket based on “Once saved, always saved.” Faith without works is dead!
@SoliDeoGloria_X That’s a blatant lie! You clearly need to attend a Catholic Mass before making such claims. Even many of our Church hymns are drawn directly from the Psalms in the Bible..
@SoliDeoGloria_X “Therefore, brethren, stand fast, and hold the traditions which ye have been taught, whether by word, or our epistle.”-2 Thessalonians 2:15
@SoliDeoGloria_X “And there are also many other things which Jesus did, the which, if they should be written every one, I suppose that even the world itself could not contain the books that should be written.”-John 21:25
@jjjjovian Your father may be the head of your household, but you're equal before the law. Authority doesn't mean superiority in nature. Likewise, the Father being greater in role doesn't make Jesus less divine.
📖 Before the New Testament was completed, Christ had already established His Church!
The early Church preserved, proclaimed, and helped recognize the Scriptures we read today.
✝️ Know your Bible. Know its history. Stand strong in your Catholic faith!

@jjjjovian@grok By your logic, a truth cannot exist until someone invents a word for it.
And remember, Jesus never wrote a book. His teachings were preserved and transmitted through His apostles.
The absence of a word is not proof of the absence of truth. @grok
@jjjjovian@grok Jesus commanded baptism in the singular “name” of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit (Matthew 28:19). The word “Trinity” simply gives a name to this biblical revelation.
A doctrine doesn't become false because its theological name was developed later.
