cause the usage is anachronistic ; in a sense, it ceases to be a descriptive and becomes instead (through its misapplication) a rhetorical device

John Calvin (July 10, 1509 May 27, 1564) was a French Protestant theologian during the Protestant Reformation and was a central developer of the system of Christian theology called Calvinism or Reformed theology. In Geneva, he rejected Papal authority, established a new scheme of civic and ecclesiastical governance, and created a central hub from which Reformed theology was propagated.
So you consider them diety? As I mentioned your true colors are showing!In my opinion, it is blasphemous to dignivy his name with the title "Saint"
He was no saint!

Yes they are to be hounored in icons and the icons are to be kissed after doing the sign of the cross and bowing to them and. What's wrong with that? That's how real Christianity works.So you consider them diety? As I mentioned your true colors are showing!
Really? Kissing and bowing to an icon...you consider that real Christianity? How so? I asked if TLF considered saints diety you weren't answering yes to that were you?Yes they are to be hounored in icons and the icons are to be kissed after doing the sign of the cross and bowing to them and.

Yes, that is real, pure Christianity. Orthodoxy is the same Christianity as the one founded in Nicea by Saint Emperor Constantine I and the holy Church Fathers. They did not have things like Church corporations or advertisement in their Churches, for “No one can serve two masters; for either he will hate the one and love the other, or else he will be loyal to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and mammon. (Matthew 6:24 NKJV)Kissing and bowing to an icon...you consider that real Christianity?
Yes and no. They should not be worshiped as little Gods.weren't answering yes to that were you?

Protestantism is a corrupted version of Christianity, the original faith is preserved in the orthodox Church. Your "saints" are false and evil men.
Yes and no. They should not be worshiped as little Gods.

What in the world are you talking about?
You are making no sense.

and there is no honer due to John Calvin.
Give honor to whom honor is due.
(who said that? Oh, right . . . . GOD!)

What is this my guy is holier than your guy? If they are both born again Christians then what is the difference?There is something radically wrong and I mean radically wrong to believe John Calvin is a Saint and JP2 damned.
No, just ppl who achieved theosis, who became what Christ redeemed them to be.. holy and perfect as per Christ's words in the bible. "Be ye perfect as your heavely Father is perfect..." and "Be holy as God is holy..."
hence it is blasphemous to honor Calvin with that title just as it is blasphemous to imply JP2 is damned.
