I noticed you ignored my examples. How can an inerrant Bible have such problems?Any variation of the Gospel accounts is contradiction and not be believed. Any similarity of Gospel accounts is collusion and not to be believed. Such is the way of the world.
They contradict each other. So logically, there are errors in them.
You're saying they misuse 2 Th 3:10?I've seen 2 Thessalonians 3:10 regularly used by some to justify not helping the poor and the hungry.

Why is it that I have to look up almost every other word that you write? It’s like, oh The Liturist posted again, let me open Google and try to figure out what he’s talking about. LolLuke 11:28 hands-down. It’s literally the Gospel for the Feast of the Dormition being abused by the anti-dicomarianists.
Are you offended by his wonderful erudition?Why is it that I have to look up almost every other word that you write? It’s like, oh The Liturist posted again, let me open Google and try to figure out what he’s talking about. Lol

Hold on let me look up erudition, I’ll get back to you on that.Are you offended by his wonderful erudition?
Finally something I didn’t have to Google to understand. Lol God bless brotherThis is intentional.

Are you saying that about others?Are you saying that Paul was disobedient to God when it came to how to treat the least of these?

Having been a "voluminous" reader (Pun Intended) I can attest to its value in developing one's vocabulary. Likewise, spending time discoursing with intelligent people helps cultivate one's word power as well.The process that drives my writing on OCnet is to try and use the most precise word possible so as to reduce the length of my posts, which already tend to be long in many cases, because while on most threads I have nothing to say, when I do have something to say, it is, dare I say, voluminous.
And when I do use a word such as “voluminous” the benefit is that users get to look up the word and then put it into use themselves, and so we all win. In fact on occasion I am confronted by a novel term or concept; I have learned a lot from members of the forum, for example from my friends @MarkRohfrietsch , @Ain't Zwinglian , @Shane R , @prodromos and @dzheremi , to name just a few of the many members who I have learned from. And this idea of learning through an exchange of information is known as the Socratic Method, and was very popular among the Early Church Fathers, which is why they so often wrote in the form of dialogues.
So while I could perhaps improve the immediate readability of my posts by using a less precise vocabulary, I feel doing this would do everyone a disservice, and it would also not be authentic, because I write with the terms which my mind actually uses. What you are experiencing when you read my posts is my inner thoughts, in the moment, committed to writing.
No, what I’m experiencing is an overwhelming abundance of heat accumulating in my brain causing excessive sweating and shortness of breath whenever I read your posts. It’s a good thing I don’t have your inner thoughts in my brain otherwise my head would probably burst into flames. I’d say it would be comparable to putting nitromethane in a lawnmower and mowing the lawn at 27,000 RPMs.What you are experiencing when you read my posts is my inner thoughts, in the moment, committed to writing.
Would be nice to add to that post - your explanation of how the quote you provide is an abuse.Judge not, lest ye be judged (Matthew 7:1)
In vain do they worship me teaching as doctrines, the commandments of men.’ (Mark 7:7)
Where there is no vision, the people perish. – Proverbs 29:18
So also faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead. James 2:17
I shall go to him, but he will not return to me.” 2 Sam. 7:23
Those who actually believe "Mary is the Mother of God" are known by the frequency in which they come outright and state that belief. For for example - Lutherans come right out and say it.We do not worship the Blessed Virgin Mary (who is Mother of God
