So RCs say and I do not disagree, one church. But it is not their foul smelling evil institution. I am so over RCs making out how important works are, yet do not apply that to their institution. It fails the works test, it fails the fruit test, it fails the teaching test, it fails the leadership test.
Yep no Jesus is not speaking literally, as dingoling likes to say He is speakingliterally because he does not say it is symbolic. It is obvious He is speaking symbolically, He does not say this is literal. Just because you falsely think your delusion is real, does not make it so. Works means doing as God says and in the case of RCs they believe Jesus was going against what His father said. They believe Jesus was breaking the commandments. If He did do what they say, He would no longer be the spotless lamb.
Your institution is ignoring 1 Cor 5:11 when they falsely use the tares quote to justify their leaders' evil fruit and that alone proves it is not His church. Please show a verse where Jesus says there will be child molestors in my church and they will be leaders? Please one verse? His church does not associate with those who are sexually immoral for a start. Yours hides their sin and has them for meals. These bad fruits also show these leaders clearly fail the scriptural requirements for leaders. Those who hid the sin, are now part of that sin.
I wonder why NO RC ever refers 1 Cor 5:11.
