Gal.4:26
Jerusalem which is above is free,
which is the mother of us all.
and that ain't Mary, Mother of Christ; Paul speaks of
As a jewel of gold in a swine's snout,
so is a fair woman which is without discretion.
Stella says
Show me the church that holds strictly to ancient mores appropriate to the Apostles day? Perhaps the Amish is your church?

======================= end Stellas question
ahhh, Stella;
If I have told you earthly things,
and ye believe not,
how shall ye believe,
if I tell you of heavenly things?
------------------But, here is the Church you asked about-------------
Hebrews 12:22
mount Sion, and unto the city of the living God,
the heavenly Jerusalem, and to an innumerable company of angels,
23 To the general assembly and church of the firstborn,
which are written in heaven,
to God the Judge of all,
and to the spirits of just men made perfect,
24 And to Jesus the mediator of the new covenant,
and to the blood of sprinkling,
that speaketh better things than that of Abel.
have you ever heard of it Stella???
the Church where the true teachers are sent from
Proverbs 8:22
The Lord possessed me in the beginning of his way,
before his works of old.
23 I was set up from everlasting,
from the beginning, or ever the earth was.
24 When there were no depths, I was brought forth;
when there were no fountains abounding with water.
25 Before the mountains were settled,
before the hills was I brought forth:
26 While as yet he had not made the earth,
nor the fields, nor the highest part of the dust of the world.
27 When he prepared the heavens, I was there:
when he set a compass upon the face of the depth:
28 When he established the clouds above:
when he strengthened the fountains of the deep:
29 When he gave to the sea his decree,
that the waters should not pass his commandment:
when he appointed the foundations of the earth:
30 Then I was by him, as one brought up with him:
and I was daily his delight, rejoicing always before him;
31 Rejoicing in the habitable part of his earth;
and my delights were with the sons of men.
Are they not all ministering spirits,
sent forth to minister for them who shall be heirs of salvation?
32 Now
therefore hearken unto me,
And of the angels he saith,
Who maketh his angels spirits,
and his ministers a flame of fire
..............
Are they not all ministering spirits,
sent forth to minister for them who shall be heirs of salvation?
Stella,
they came down at Pentecost
as Christ had promised
John 3:1
There was a man of the Pharisees,
named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews:
.
Verily, verily, I say unto thee,
Except a man be born again,
he cannot see the kingdom of God.
..
Ye must be born again.
8
The wind bloweth where it listeth,
and thou hearest the sound thereof,
but canst not tell whence it cometh,
and whither it goeth:
so is every one that is born of the Spirit.
..
Nicodemus answered and said unto him,
How can these things be ????????
Ecc.11:5
As thou knowest not what is the way of the spirit,
nor how the bones do grow in the womb of her that is with child:
even so thou knowest not the works of God who maketh all.
Jesus answered and said unto him,
Art thou a master of Israel,
and knowest not these things?
11
Verily, verily, I say unto thee,
We speak that we do know,
and testify that we have seen;
and ye receive not our witness.
12
If I have told you earthly things,
and ye believe not,
how shall ye believe,
if I tell you of heavenly things?
And when the day of Pentecost was fully come,
they were all with one accord in one place.
2 And suddenly there came a sound from heaven
as of a rushing mighty wind,
and it filled all the house where they were sitting.
3 And there appeared unto them cloven tongues like as of fire,
and it sat upon each of them.
4 And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost,
Stella;
the Church of Christ
wasn't started at Pentecost
it was
"
set up from everlasting, from the beginning,
or ever the earth was.
When there were no depths,
While as yet he had not made the earth"

Stella asks

--------------------Pentecost---------------
Then they that gladly received his word were baptized:
and the same day there were added unto them about three thousand souls.
42 And they continued stedfastly in the apostles'
doctrine and fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers.
Stella;
the True Church, the Church of Christ
was,
"
set up from everlasting, from the beginning,
or ever the earth was.
When there were no depths,
While as yet he had not made the earth"
the Church of Satan started here
"Yea, hath God said"
known today as the RCC
