CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Yes the definition of the contents of holy scripture is important. It is especially important when one considers that the contents of holy scripture are the sole inspired and infallible source of doctrine for christians.

Ok. We have now established that the table of contents is super important dogma. What other super important dogmas are not found in scripture?

I haven't given that matter a lot of thought. Isn't it sufficient for me to give one clear and indisputable example?

More Christians accept the Catholic Bible than the 66 book version.....so much for the universally adjective.
That's deceptive of you. Considering you mean simply that there are more Roman Catholics than any other denomination. Too bad you missed my point. Every denomination accepts the 66 books, it's only a tiny handful that do not...

Sigh...this will be the third time I've posted it....I won't post it again, I'll simply place you on ignore as you obviously we don't wish to have a reasonable discussion:

His point is valid when one is counting numbers as appears to be the case in your post. Catholic Christians living today represent more than one half of Christians alive today.

Not when my post is quite obviously a denominational division and not an individual count of persons.

If thats all you have then you agree that you know of no dogmas that are not found in the bible. So there are no super important dogmas that you know of that are not found in the bible.

No, I will not let you or any other Roman Catholic here obfuscate anymore. My point has been made. Far more denominations accept the 66 books. It is only a tiny handful that claim more. No more red herrings.

However that number is quickly diminishing from i hear. I guess the internet is a good protestant evangelizing tool.
Reminds me of Tyndale a little.

Your two posts appear to be self contradictory. You say "We have now established that the table of contents is super important dogma." and acknowledge that it is not in holy scripture and then you say "then you agree that you know of no dogmas that are not found in the bible". The table of contents is, as you say, important dogma, and it is not included in holy scripture.

So what if dozens of denominations use a 66 book bible? 1.2 billion people use a 73 book bible. Neither number proves much of anything.

No because the table of contents is found within the bible.
It may be in your printed bible but it is not in holy scripture.

I mentioned the bible, not scripture. You however have contradicted yourself. You are referring to scripture not the bible. The table of contents is not in the scripture but the bible. Are you sure that you haven't used a straw man?

The thread is about scripture. The thread title is Scripture MISSING Dogmas? The table of contents is, as you say, important dogma, and it is not included in holy scripture.
