I have very little respect for anyone with a doctrinal agenda and a Greek lexicon. Especially Catholics who have created a fantasy castle of myths and false doctrine, all to control the masses. Much of what they espouse is to keep themselves in power while they leave Jesus on the cross and...
A terrible translation? LOL!!! :sweatsmile: I sincerely doubt that you have better credentials than the committee of scholars who produce the excellent translations that we have today. If you do, a) produce the evidence and b) realize that you hold just one (biased) opinion.
My favorite...
Mary was a young woman who had great faith. Nothing more. Period.
As I wrote earlier, Jesus, after He had received the Holy Spirit, said that she was not his mother (symbolically of course). Matthew 12:48-50.
I believe what God's word clearly says, not contrived religious doctrine that...
Unlike some people on this forum, I believe what the Bible says. I do not give any credence to what anyone says that contradicts, adds to, or omits from what the Bible says. I believe entirely in the principle of sola scriptura, i.e., what the Bible says is true. If people add to or subtract...
a) You are most definitely not in my place, so keep your instructions to yourself.
b) Nowhere in Scripture is Mary referred to as "her majesty", the obvious reason being that she was not a queen. (Joseph was never a king.)
Thank you. Since you are clearly unable to answer my posts, have a nice day -- somewhere else.
P.S. It wasn't Mary who stepped on the serpent's head, it was Eve's male offspring. (Gensis 3:15) sola scriptura!
You are clearly delusional. You can't won't accept the truth. Period.
You didn't answer why Jesus is still on the cross in Carholic crucifixes.crucified.
Mary is the queen of heaven and Jesus is still on the cross! And you think you have the truth??? :sweatsmile:
Well, you're not in my place. I know what the Bible says. NOWHERE IN THE BIBLE DOES IT SAY THAT MARY WAS A QUEEN!!!
Joseph is of David's lineage. That has nothing to do with Mary! Duh!!!
And in your second paragraph, it says that one of the Eastern men said that Jesus was born king of the...
Nowhere in the Bible does it say that Mary was a queen, so stop creating myths.
BTW, clearly you don't understand what "incoherent" means? Perhaps you're incapable of understanding what I am saying!
You talk about sola scriptura and the practice of Christianity so I made the assumption that you were a Christian.
I am not "screaming my dogma and bigotry" and I am not obligated to reply in the manner that you demand. Capiche?
Oh sure: the Bible is irrelevant! That gives your denomination the excuse to relegate it to second place so that all kinds of stuff can be added on, primarily to give the clergy control of people.
The five solas are critically important, and are all that are needed: 1) Scripture alone, 2)...
Wrong! Mary was just a normal teenager chosen by God for a specific task: to give birth to Jesus. She was not sinless and was never a queen. That is a Catholic mythological add-on that is never mentioned in God's Word.
She did a so-so job of her part in raising Jesus -- she lost track of Him...
Here is what Scripture says about your "sinless" Mary...
Luke 1:26-36, " In the sixth month of Elizabeth’s pregnancy, the angel Gabriel was sent by God to a town of Galilee called Nazareth, to a virgin engaged to a man whose name was Joseph, a descendant of David, and the virgin’s name was...
What is this "dirty sinner" nonsense? That is some fantasy of yours that I have never heard before from anyone! Why are so you intent on distorting the Bible to match the false Catholic glorification of a young woman chosen for a specific task?
BTW, you still haven't answered why Jesus said...
Obviously your knowledge of Greek grammar has prohibited you from seeing the truth. You still haven't shown me where in Scripture that it clearly says that Mary was sinless.. There is an obvious reason: because it's not there.
The Pharisees, like you, also had academic knowledge, yet they...
Why don't you answer the question? Where in the Bible (any translation!) does it specifically say that Mary was sinless? Not grammatical interpretation of ancient Greek!
I have asked the same question multiple times, yet you have not given a direct answer. Why not? Because the Bible doesn't...
