the church

[Grosnick Marowbe]

That's correct---and THIS, according to the Scriptures, is Christ's Church.

The Catholic church doesn't preach "The Grace Gospel." (Paul's Gospel) Therefore, they are not part of God's church.

 

[Cruciform]

Nowhere is it suggested that the Catholic Church is Christ's church. The FRUITS of the RCC expose it as a pack of wolves. After the Apostles died, it bulged and burst into a great apostate cancer that spread throughout the earth.

Given that these opinions come from someone who is not actually a Christian, you'll understand if we don't take your post here very seriously. Regarding your supposed "Great Apostasy," see THIS, THIS, THIS, and the following:

Yeah, the "Two-Gospel" group already had their say---and were sufficiently answered---earlier in the thread. Thanks anyway.

 

[God's Truth]

The Lord Jesus is presently seated at the right hand of the Father in the Father's throne.

This is David's throne:

2Sa 3:10 To translate the kingdom from the house of Saul, and to set up the throne of David over Israel and over Judah, from Dan even to Beersheba.

1Ki_2:12 Then sat Solomon upon the throne of David his father; and his kingdom was established greatly.

1Ki_2:45 And king Solomon shall be blessed, and the throne of David shall be established before the LORD for ever.

1Ki_9:5 Then I will establish the throne of thy kingdom upon Israel for ever, as I promised to David thy father, saying, There shall not fail thee a man upon the throne of Israel.

Luk 1:32 He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the Highest: and the Lord God shall give unto him the throne of his father David:
Luk 1:33 And he shall reign over the house of Jacob for ever; and of his kingdom there shall be no end.

All those scriptures are about ruling over Israel.

Jesus is ruling over Israel.

 

[God's Truth]

God's Truth is God's Church. We can find God's Truth in the scriptures.

So, you recognize that the Catholic church doesn't follow the "True Gospel" correct?

paul refers to
-the church
-52 times
-and
-perhaps this is the most interesting one-
1 Corinthians 10:32King James Version (KJV)

32 Give none offence, neither to the Jews, nor to the Gentiles, nor to the church of God:

remember
-the only time Jesus showed anger
-was
-when they disrespected the temple
-perhaps Jesus feels the same about
-the church

If that is true, your fake church is in for a world of hurt.

 

[SaulToPaul 2]

-when they disrespected the temple

You mean when the elite greedily made money off the common people, in the name of religion?
Sound familiar?

many have been trying to hurt the church for nearly 2000 years
-and
-paul said
-give none offence to the church of God

You church has absolutely nothing to do wjth tge church of god....and needed violence to continue its existance for over 1000 years. It know nothing about loving it enemies and serving the lord. Your church it nothing less that rebranded paganism

It's not speaking about "Your" church.

 

[chrysostom]

just look at what you would miss
-if
-you put these people on ignore

The Truth??

 

[SaulToPaul 2]

I would miss your harebrained schemes & theories!

 

[SaulToPaul 2]

It't not speaking about "Your" church.

Yes, it's easy to see that Paul does not include himself in the church of God.

 

[HisServant]

The same authority that every Christian should have... The Holy Spirit and affirmation of the ekklesia.
