Roman church errors and inventions

I kicked a cow once. The Doctor said I was 'lactose intolerant'

better watch it I bet the ACLU has a British counterpart


for sure, PETA does (and I'm not talking about the logical PETA---people eating tasty animals)

Hey, I got an idea. Let's discuss theology instead.

 

[mont974x4]

we do, and we will, we just take small fellowship breaks now and again

Come join my PETA group.

That would be: People Eating Tasty Animals

We are always looking for those who are "intolerant".

LOL, you beat me to it.

God has a place for all critters......right next to the mashed taters.

What would we do without those breaks?



Ok... last topic I saw was relics...

With that said...


Somewhere in the OT it reads that a deceased man was thrown into the tomb of one of the prophets. I believe Isiah. One of those guys. Anywho, the man's body was thrown into the tomb which had the body of a prophet lying in it. The man's body and the prophet's body came into contact, and the man was brought back to life.

Are relics now somehow useless? Discuss...

Whaddaya mean "let's"?
Have you posted anything else on this thread?

Yeah, and during the medieval period there was enough wood from the cross of Christ sold to have built Chicago 4 times after the great fire.

And next to the biscuits, with lots of gravy.

You need to find that passage for us, bro.
I can't seem to find it, to verify your memory isn't as bad or worse than mine.

2 Kings 13:21
And it came to pass, as they were burying a man, that, behold, they spied a band of men; and they cast the man into the sepulchre of Elisha: and when the man was let down, and touched the bones of Elisha, he revived, and stood up on his feet.

 

[Rick Otto]

Thanks.
Well, it looks like Elisha's bone served a purpose, altho inadvertantly, and while they were still fresh & in a grave.
I'm not sure that would make them relics.

Of course relics "serve a purpose", beings as they exist to.

The soul was no longer with the body, thus the body was "dead" and thus they are relics.

bump for relevancy to the other thread on what is the problem with Rome.

 

[mont974x4]

Yeah you're gonna have to do better than that. There's no biblical support for lighting candles and praying to pics of dead people.

Unless of course the electric cuts off.

Luke 11:33 No one yet a Lamp/lucnon <3088> touching into hiding is placing not yet under the measure but upon the Lampstand/lucnian <3087> that those entering the light may be beholding.

Hebrews 9:2 For a booth is constructed the beforemost in which the besides Lampstand/lucnia <3087> and the Table and the before-placing of the breads, which any is saying to be holy.

We actually used to have an old oil lamp. It may be at my parents place.

Personally, I use battery powered lanterns and flashlights for less of a fire hazard.

Propane lanterns work great too. I like using them when winter backpacking. They put off enough heat to keep the tent nice and cozy.
