    What Does Passover/Easter Holyday/Holiday Mean To You?

    The pope, until 1968 presided over the Inquisition body, initially called the Supreme Sacred Congregation. The dirty work was done by his lowers, but the power came from the kingdoms ruled by rulers crowned by the pope. Heretics who did not repent were burned alive. Dicastery for the...

    What Does Passover/Easter Holyday/Holiday Mean To You?

    Saying that Constantine didn't have influence over the Council of Nicaea, when he was the one who convened it, presided over it, and provided the venue, is a bit like having your head in the sand. But then again, that is how the woke get by in their daily lives. Emperor Constantine the Great...

    What Does Passover/Easter Holyday/Holiday Mean To You?

    The term "Catholic church" means universal Christian church. There has never been a universal Christian church. Constantine was the guy with the power to try and correct that deficit, and unify his empire, and he failed, and had to keep burning books and proclaiming death for anyone found with...

    The Inquisition is where the state, the Roman emperors, crowned by the church, prosecute the people, such as Joan of Arc, and the church clerics act as the prosecutors. Luther was found guilty of heresy, which is punishable by death. He found sanctuary in Germany, protected by the German...

    When you rely on elite academia for your credentials, those credentials need to be debased. The lies of the elites, went in tandem and supported the lies made by Fauci, which overall, helped in the death of millions in the past, and potential millions having been damaged. The Marxist elite...

    What Does Passover/Easter Holyday/Holiday Mean To You?

    No, Luther escaped the Iniquistion, and the German princes gave him sanctuary. Otherwise, he would have been roasted on a stick. The Edict of Worms was a decree issued on 25 May 1521 by Emperor Charles V. Its contents proscribed Luther's writings, declaring him a heretic and an enemy of the...

    They are divided because their leader is the false prophet Paul, who is all things to all people, according to him. You can believe what you want to believe, and apparently people believe what they choose to believe.

    What Does Passover/Easter Holyday/Holiday Mean To You?

    At one time, it was the only church supported by the Roman empire, which is to say, supported by the "another king/beast" of Daniel 7:24-25, and Revelation 13:11, the ever-present Roman emperor Constantine, who was to "deceive" those who "dwell on the earth". Other churches or people with...

    What Does Passover/Easter Holyday/Holiday Mean To You?

    Your problem is the Catholic church is just one of many "Christian" sects, which apparently has around 34,000 sects disagreeing with their main themes. Not that the other sects are correct, but they do seem to point out the flaws of the Catholic church. Luther pointed out a few but had to...

    What Does Passover/Easter Holyday/Holiday Mean To You?

    You are building your case supposedly on elite academia and religious ideologues. Your elite Mr. Science, Mr. Fauci, has undermined your experts. DNA and archeology is undermining the history narrative. Present observations are undermining everything else. If you have cats, supposedly they...

    Living in Heaven or on Earth. Does the Bible give us that option? [For Jehovah's Witnesses]

    Yeshua in Mt 16:23 was referring to Mt 16:22, whereas Siman Peter decided what was right and what was wrong, where upon Yeshua said get behind me Satan, you are a stumbling block to me. As for your Baha, well, the guy is just another false prophet, one among many (Mt 7:15).

    Living in Heaven or on Earth. Does the Bible give us that option? [For Jehovah's Witnesses]

    "Christianity" is the religion based on the "message" of the "enemy" (Mt 13:24-30), who is the "devil" (Mt 13:37-42), and his mouthpiece is Paul, and his message is "lawlessness" (Mt 7:23) Paul, as yourself, determines what is sin and what it is not. Paul's message, is that the law has been...

    What Does Passover/Easter Holyday/Holiday Mean To You?

    Present day circumstances kind of undermine your elite academia. Science is undermined by the Webb telescope and the Hadrian collider. Historians are being undermined by new discoveries and their bias. Jewish scribes are undermined by Jeremiah 8:8. Advanced degrees, except in California, the...

    What Does Passover/Easter Holyday/Holiday Mean To You?

    Athanasius may have been a brute and who supposedly poisoned Arius, but he was exiled 5 time, and one of those was by Constantine. Constantine's son was favorable to the Arians. It was Theodosius who threw the Arian bishop out. The Eastern church so liked Constantine and Athanasius, they made...

    If that is not what you believe, why do you parrot unreal beliefs? There were very few western bishops at the Council. The majority were from the eastern empire. The ex-cathedra, "infallibility" of the pope, supposedly put Mary into heaven.

    What Does Passover/Easter Holyday/Holiday Mean To You?

    Constantine presided over the Council. The only thing he was interested in was a unified empire. His right-hand man, Eusebius, was an Arian, yet he exiled two Arian bishops. Your history was written by Eusebius, the Christian historian. If you want truth, you will not find it in any church...

    What Does Passover/Easter Holyday/Holiday Mean To You?

    As with the bishop of Alexandria, he had a scribe, by the name of Athanasius. The bishop of Rome didn't send bishops, he sent scribes. As for "sacred texts", there were none. There were thousands of differing scripts but no canon, and no clarity. The reason Constantine had to convene a...

    What Does Passover/Easter Holyday/Holiday Mean To You?

    I don't know. It seems you seem to be informed by "Christian" clerics. I suggest that you try independent sources. You seem to be butchering history as well as any "Christian" apologist, who has had many years to assemble their wares. Just because you have read the history of the supposed...

    What Does Passover/Easter Holyday/Holiday Mean To You?

    Strange, as Constantine sent bishops like Athanasius and followers of Arius, into exile for their Arian and anti-Arian views. He also appointed bishops. My suggestion would be to stay away from "Christian" faux historians...

    What Does Passover/Easter Holyday/Holiday Mean To You?

    Constantine convened and presided over the Council of Nicaea. All he wanted was a unified decision, to unify his empire. As for your "Christian" bishops, many of them couldn't read or write. The bishop of Rome didn't even come, he probably had gout and stayed at home, and sent some scribes...
