Why do you think there are so many differnt beliefs, when it comes to what the bible say?
Why do you think we can't seem to get the same doctrines?
Everyone talks about historical records, history is one reason i believe what i do
I have contacts in China and they never have asked about which translation, just send more.
Look any translation done by a group of scholars that had to agree works just find in all the matters that matter. It is only when you worry about the insignificant stuff that we fight over what the Greek said.
Maybe if we had to do a little thinking, praying, meditating, discussing with other Christians; seekers of the truth, fasting over it, waiting for an answer and a really allowing Spirit to work with us we could know what it means?
Pride, so inability to admit being wrong.
"Spiritual babies (aka carnal)" in charge (the I am of xyz or abc or lmnop that Paul warned about).
Seeing scripture through the lens of Tradition.
Persecution of those who taught what apostles taught.
Off the top of my head ...
Who exactly are the "victors" in this instance?
Sometimes its hard to know whats going on. life is hard, faith gets tested and sometimes i feel so low i just want to shed tears, but there is no hope in this world, only hope i see is in the lord, so i press forward, keep obeying him and hoping in him, i wait on the lord, thanking god for something to hope in. Dont know anything else but that sometimes. Praise the lord. This song says it all.

2Cr 3:13
unlike Moses, [who] put a veil over his face so that the children of Israel could not look steadily at the end of what was passing away
[Exodus 34:34, 35]
You are a blessing, both to me and to this forum
That's right in theory, but the point is that when the Pope made his announcement about the deal he was offering, it was widely thought that he was going to finesse that problem somehow. As it turned out, there's so little left of the "Anglican ethos" that the Pope had been thought willing to accept for the sake of re-union, that the proposal immediately soured.Shouldn't be a surprise. RC doesn't think Anglican priests are "real" priests with the ability to "transform" (or invoke God to "transform") the bread into flesh and wine into blood, like they think they are able to.
You're expressing the Eastern Orthodox definition of the term there. Western Christianity has never accepted that qualifer.It's the new normal redefined "apostolic succession" from "teach the same" to "continuous valid priest succession".
Best way to be like paul isn't found in joining the Rc, its found in liberty and suffering

We do not have to learn from them, just go back to what Jesus taught us and his example: a small group, allowing deity to do the mentoring, spending lots of time in all kinds of situations, using the masses and the many needy people as the back drop to teaching the small group (the masses are a fickle group and not the first objective), and patiently training through asking questions.This is an excellent post bling!
I have heard this many times before and the only conclusion one can come to is that there is only God, His Holy Spirit and the written Word to teach and guide them! There is no use of rituals, million dollar buildings or a hierarchy of men.
The Holy Spirit can and does lead people into the His Truth w/out a bunch of other stuff distracting us and focusing our attention on things that don't really matter. I think we could look at their example and learn from them!!
so are you going to get it started?
