@AntiWokeEvil @BishopJaxi Catholic means universal. Roman Catholic, the one that prays to dead saints, venerates them, uses relics, believes in pergatory, etc is not the universal church.

@ServusDeiVivi @BishopJaxi It’s true that regional councils such as Hippo (393 AD) and Carthage (397, 419 AD) affirmed a list of 73 books, matching what later became the Roman Catholic canon. But these were regional councils, not ecumenical ones. The...

@AntiWokeEvil @BishopJaxi The Council of Rome in 382 AD did not create the NT canon! It simply recognized what the Christian churches had already been using for centuries. The idea that the Catholic Church at Rome compiled the canon at that point is...

@BishopJaxi I would never do that. If you want to pray to Mary and kiss her feet

@BishopJaxi @jimexploring All of them? The scribes that kept the scriptures.

@jimexploring @BishopJaxi What do you mean?

@jimexploring @BishopJaxi And all of these compilations differ in several books.

@BishopJaxi If your argument is that early codices determine the canon, then you’ll need to be consistent: - Codex Sinaiticus includes The Shepherd of Hermas and The Epistle of Barnabas. - Codex Alexandrinus adds Psalm 151 and 1–4 Maccabees. - Codex ...

@CS_Bodan @smashbaals No, head isn’t about authority or hierarchy but about source relationships. This is why a pastor or apostle or prophet or any kind of leader in the church is never called the head of anyone. It is only the husband to his wife. M...

@BishopJaxi You’re conflating manuscripts with canon. The codices (Vaticanus, Sinaiticus, etc) are early collections, not authoritative lists. They include disputed writings (Barnabas, Shepherd of Hermas, Psalm 151), showing usage, not definition. F...

@BishopJaxi @Nazzer_2016 And it didn’t even take an hour… https://t.co/Yw5oWhYLE

@BishopJaxi That’s not my argument. No complete Bible before the 15th century had exactly 66 books, but that’s because no bound Bible of any kind existed in a single, standardized volume yet. And the canon wasn’t invented later; it was affirmed from ...

@Toneskeee @SuzanneLucy78 Regarding the requirements for elders, nowhere is it stated “must not be a female.” The requirements Paul lists are related to character, things you can change, not things you have no control over such as whether you are mal...

@NavyServant_61 @Toneskeee @AlanChilde36050 If an overseer has to be a husband, that would mean Paul himself would be disqualified. How is that possible? And Timothy was also likely single. Peter calls himself a fellow elder, so don’t think an apostl...

@BaptistClips Curious. If Paul wasn’t also an elder/overseer, then I don’t know who was. A Positive Case for Paul as an Elder Though Paul never calls himself an elder, the NT presents him as one in function and spirit. Shepherding Paul exhibits th...

@REFINED_DIRT @sola_chad Again, was your pastor a Calvinist?

@REFINED_DIRT @sola_chad So you read Romans 3 and thought that there is no one who did good and didn’t wonder whether that idea would mean Paul was quoting Ps 14 out of context? Was your pastor or those you were listening to (aka the commentaries) n...
