Today in 1507, Martin Luther was ordained as a priest and presided over his first Mass.

If you preach a different gospel and a different Messiah it's not the same as my beliefs. Catholics should acknowledge that....

The Catholic Church existed since 33 AD; the first Protestant church was around 1500 years later. I'm sticking with the teachings that followed Jesus. Seems more demonic to attack followers of Jesus and debate and cry about another denomination, focus on YOUR SINS. You have plenty, like all humans.

@TalaHanSolo I'm a Gnostic Christian. I know what you mean.

If Biblical scholars hundreds of years after the Crucifixion of Jesus Christ can decide which books of the Bible were "just made up" and removed them from the texts so that we can't learn from them, then how do we know that the entire Bible isn't "just made up"?
It's a fair and honest question. Insults will not be tolerated, this is a post for discussion.

@BishopJaxi His sister is Catholic and he doesn't have a doctorate from an accredited institution. "Doctor" is a stretch.

Hello again Dr. White,
Attacking my character instead of addressing the text or the argument is, at this point, entirely unsurprising.
When I was Protestant, I spent years watching your debates and working through your “pages and pages.” Ironically, it was precisely that process that led me into the Catholic Church.
So please, spare me your narcissistic appeal to your own material where you do professional mental gymnastics butchering the Bible to add “faith alone” into the text when it doesn’t exist.
If quoting the very passages you claim as your authority provokes this kind of ad hominem response, that says far more about the fragility and lack of foundation in your position than it does about me.
Have a blessed Sunday, Dr. White. God bless.

Anyone want to make a small wager this fellow hasn't ever taken even a few minutes to look at any of the in-depth, long-published Protestant works on every single one of these texts? I know I have published pages and pages on almost all of them, and I can guarantee you, this fellow is incapable of even engaging that material, let alone refuting it. So again, he is an engagement miner: all he wants is the clicks, he hasn't the slightest concern for accuracy and truthfulness. Shameful.

Bishop Joseph Strickland, former bishop of the Diocese of Tyler, Texas, told NEWSMAX that former President Joe Biden was not a good Catholic "by any real definition," calling Biden's public observance "more of a facade."
Poll: Do you agree with Bishop Strickland that Biden was not a good Catholic?

@feeling_woke @ShaneSchaetzel And by 76-79, are you meaning that the Orthodox don't even agree on a canon?
English
@ShaneSchaetzel You mean the Catholics use the medium length canon. As the eastern orthodox (the actual Greek) have a 76-79 book canon.
Why did the Catholics remove the 3-6 books from their canon that the east preserved through what they deem apostolic tradition?
English
Catholics use the longer Greek Canon for the Old Testament, overwhelmingly preferred by the Apostles.
Protestants use the shorter Hebrew Canon for the Old Testament, overwhelmingly preferred by the Pharisees.
And that’s why Catholic Bibles have more books.
English
@feeling_woke @ShaneSchaetzel Were the Eastern bishops part of the Councils of Rome (382), Hippo (393), and Carthage (397)? These councils canonized the 73 book Bible...so where (and when) did the universal Church canonize these additional books of which you speak?

@rabbriansamuel In 1st-century Roman culture, men (specifically, high-status men) would cover their heads with a toga while praying or sacrificing to pagan gods. Paul wanted Christian men to set themselves apart from these practices.
English
I have to admit, Paul's writings on head coverings and hair length in 1 Corinthians 11 has me puzzled.
Why such rules?
Do men really have to take their hats off when praying?
Do women really have to wear a head covering, otherwise shave bald?
Is long hair really disgraceful for a man?
I have to wonder if these sayings are idiomatic and we lost some context here.
Where do you land on this?

@j_zhong1611 It's a good translation, but it's now missing 7 OT books, therefore, deficient.

The King James Version of the Bible is the preserved inspired Word of God without error. It is perfect.

I'm sure we're all quite impressed. Jesus would just shake His head.
“Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy… but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven… For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.”
“Foxes have dens and birds have nests, but the Son of Man has no place to lay his head.”
