Including your own denomination? Does the Church of Andrea have some sort of website I can take a look at?Andrea77 said:You just need to read the teachings of Christ then compare them with many christian denominations.
Andrea77 said:I do not follow man made denomanations as most of them distort the teachings of Christ. So the above means nothing to me.
I dunno, I haven't seen Carico post website after website of distorted information.random_guy said:Yikes! I'm guessing you believe that only your faith, of all the Christian faiths, is the one true faith. Once it's that bad, it's only a few more posts another Cairico is spawned.
Might I know exactly what page gives the link to jesus-is-lord.com?Andrea77 said:Sarcasm is the lowest form of wit.
If you want to know what my church is get a Bible.

The Roman Catholic Religion
Really the sort of KJV-only, Catholics are evil, only we are the true church people you want us to think you are in bed with?
Andrea77 said:Jesus said whoever believes in me shall be saved so it all comes down to the individual person I believe many christians belong to Christ, Baptist, catholics, Protestants ect but they can all have errors as man is not perfect including myself.
To define the one true faith,
That would be Jesus Christ.
So all who believe in Him and follow his teachings is the one true faith.
The church is people not buildings made by man.
I do not follow man made denomanations as most of them distort the teachings of Christ. So the above means nothing to me.
What gets me is how the Protestants seem to think their denominations were simply dropped from heaven one day. They emanated from the Catholic church. They are not "deities" unto themselves.Karl - Liberal Backslider said:Really the sort of KJV-only, Catholics are evil, only we are the true church people you want us to think you are in bed with?
random_guy said:So you admit that you're falliable, but then you're absolutely sure that evolution is evil, and that there's no way it could be right? Do you ever stop to think about what you're saying? If every single biology program teaches evolution as a part of its requirement, how are you so sure you're not the one in err?
Nathan Poe said:I take it you find www.jesus-is-lord.com to be the pure unadulterated word of Christ?
Andrea77 said:Yes there is a chance that I am wrong but if we don't post each others oppinions how will we find out if I am wrong or you are wrong.
I just wrote down my belief about evolution why should it bother you so much, and how do you know that you are not wrong?
Andrea77 said:If evolution is the fruit of a bad tree a christian should not accept it.
Andrea77 said:How am I dividing christians?

In A Perfect World said:Oh yes you did!
Andrea77 said:I never said it was the pure unadulterated word of Christ?
This is besides the point the discussion should be about my initial post why are you all going away from it?
Andrea77 said:I never said this nor posted that link so what do you mean?
Andrea77 said:As a christian I do not accept evolution simply because of its roots.
Jesus said in Matthew 7:15-20
"Watch out for false prophets. They come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ferocious wolves. By their fruit you will recognise them. Do people pick grapes from thornbushes, or figs from thistles? Likewise every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit. A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, and a bad tree cannot bear good fruit. Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. Thus, by their fruit you will recognise them.

and you wonder why people accuse you of diving Christians. Preaching as to why they should not Evolution?
Andrea77 said:The concept of evolution did not originate with Charles Darwin. It
has been the essential ingredient of all pagan religions and
philosophies from time immemorial (e.g., atomism, pantheism, stoicism,
gnosticism and all other humanistic and polytheistic systems). All
beliefs which assume the ultimacy of the space/time/matter universe,
presupposing that the universe has existed from eternity, are
fundamentally evolutionary systems. The cosmos, with its innate laws and
forces, is the only ultimate reality. Depending on the sophistication of
the system, the forces of the universe may be personified as gods and
goddesses who organized the eternal chaotic cosmos into its present form
(as in ancient Babylonian and Egyptian religions), or else may
themselves be invested with organizing capabilities (as in modern
scientific evolutionism). In all such cases, these are merely different
varieties of the fundamental evolutionist world view, the essential
feature of which is the denial that there is one true God and Creator of
all things.
Can you prove that gnosticism supported the idea that life evolves?
