[quote author=Ptolomeus] Yes, the Bible says not to worship images or idols. Books are idols and images also. When many pastors use of healing oils, purifying drinking water, walk under a blanket ... are also making idolatry and imitating pagan cults. Tithing, for example, is a crude imitation of the ancient Hebrew worship. The problem is that the Hebrews paid a tithe to all people, Christian pastors if they do ... contradicting the Bible. But ... My dear friend and brother frosbel, disappeared from the thread? my dear talkin abt tithe:read malachi 3:8-11. Its talks abt tithe. I beg Dnt be ignorant.do bible also said '' my people perish for lack of knowledge . |

I think we can use some logic to refute this mother and only true church stuff. (1) The RCC cannot be the mother of all churches. I believe the first church was in the upper room at Jerusalem. Persecution drove them out and farther into the Roman empire and also fulfilling the great commission of going into all the world made many to go out. The RCC may be the oldest existing organised group of believers in Christ, but I believe there were many other groups of christians with little or no ties to the RCC. (2) That the RCC "compiled" the bible, which is challenged in some quarters, is no conclusive proof she is forever right. Aaron was the high priest in Isreal, yet he led them into idolatry although he was influenced. Balaam, though God spoke to him and related to him, caused the Isrealites to sin and he eventually paid for it. Elijah passed on the mantle to Elisha, Gehazi messed up and missed it. The RCC likely, in fact, I can say surely started well on the bases of apostolic teaching. However, subsequent generations began to dilute God's word and commands for selfish reasons. Teaching doctrines of men. They became lovers of pleasure more than lovers of God. She began to marry church and politics, Christian and pagan practices, just to avoid persecution and gain greater temporal and unfortunately temporary power. Whereas, the church before then has been a victim and almost had a tradition of persecution. Unfortunately, protestant churches are making similar errors, telling people what they want to hear, teaching false doctrines, to satisfy the flesh/belly and not God. I guess that's why power of the Holy Spirit is missing in many churches today. (3) Those who say the Holy Spirit is the guide of the RCC and so every action she takes and decision she makes is right, should reconsider their position. Can the Holy Spirit be wrong? Christ obviously can't be wrong either. So, from where did the guidance for the following come. -Burning of heretics at the stake and other punishments and executions. -Infallibility of the pope, when even peter was corrected by paul. -Opposition to the idea that the sun is at the centre of our universe, to the extent of branding proponents heretics. These are just a few, others are highly likely to engender endless arguments. Mistakes by the RCC should let you know she is not perfect. If she can go wrong on some counts, how sure are you she isn't wrong on many? 1 Like |

My dear Frosbel, the ultimate goal is to win the race. I wish u well in your newly found salvation. But one thing I know for sure is that MARY was being first hailed by an angel of God. It doesn't matter what anyone thinks. The fact is that all generations shall continue to call her blessed. Am so sorry if it makes u sad. |

Vin2014: When you make someone's image and pray to them instead of praying directly to God through his son Jesus Christ ,you are comitting idolatry.For scriptures clearly teach that the only intercessor between mankind and God is Jesus Christ/Messiah.When you are not confident to approach God it means sin is blocking you as Adam and Eve hid from God in the garden.If you really believe Lord Jesus Christ set you free from all sins by his death on the cross,shedding his sinless blood for the sins of all mankind,so that all who believe in him will be saved,then you can confidently approach the throne of God in the name of his son Jesus Christ.which planent did you come from? The protestants are descended from the arians and the donatist and the followers of mani? Hahahaha.....i can't stop laughing do you even have an idea what those sects believed? |
