So you are saying the Catholic Church is the temple of God.

italo: So you are saying the Catholic Church is the temple of God.

I am sure you saw what the bible says, being a temple of God as not stopped the devil from taking his sit there, pretending to be infallible. That is the condition of your church, its conclusion is-

10 And by unlimited seduction to evil and with all wicked deception for those who are perishing (going to perdition) because they did not welcome the Truth but refused to love it that they might be saved.
11 Therefore God sends upon them a misleading influence, a working of error and a strong delusion to make them believe what is false,


You better wake up

shdemidemi:

Again, this is not contradictory but rather a whole different scenario like you said. Paul is speaking to the Body of Christ, and James, Peter, John are speaking to the believing element of the Nation of Israel. And the Nation of Israel and the Body of Christ are completely different - that’s the way God has separated them. For example, the believing element of the Nation of Israel had believed for their salvation that Jesus was the Son of God, (their Messiah); they had repented of their sins and had been baptized in water. (Matthew 16:16 and Acts 2:38) Whereas, Paul’s Gospel tells the Body of Christ that, for salvation, we must believe in our heart that Jesus died for our sins, was buried and rose from the dead.

In other words, there’s no reference to the Body of Christ. There’s no reference to the working and the controlling of the Holy Spirit with the gospel preached by the Jewish sect.

As for the Lord and King question. The church is Christ's mystical body, He is not the king of the church because we make up His body, on the other hand He is the king of the Jews -

Two entities make up a kingdom- a king and his subject

In the book of acts1 they asked Christ 6 So when they were assembled, they asked Him, Lord, is this the time when You will reestablish the kingdom and restore it to Israel?

The question was a legitimate question but Christ had other plans before that could happen which is the gospel of grace for the entire world.

Christ did not say no, it won't happen. He said to them, It is not for you to become acquainted with and know [b]what time brings [the things and events of time and their definite periods] or fixed [c]years and seasons (their critical niche in time), which the Father has appointed (fixed and reserved) by His own choice and authority and personal power[/




All i wanted is the scripture clearly supporting that, king to the Jews and Lord to the Gentiles.

We have one Lord- Jesus and he is the king of God's kingdom. Therefore he is the king of all, both Jews and Gentile.

The promise was made to the Israelites first before it was extended to the Gentile. That was why they asked him that question in act from where you quoted cos they where not aware it now includes other nations..

How the Gospel was preached to the gentile may differ because they don't have the law of Moses but it is still the same gospel of Christ.

It is still one King, one Lord(over all), one Christ, one gospel for two sects- the Jews and the Gentile.

Lets start this way-

Romans 15
8 For I tell you that Christ (the Messiah) became a servant and a minister to the circumcised (the Jews) in order to show God’s truthfulness and honesty by confirming (verifying) the promises [given] to our fathers,
Mathew 10:5
Jesus sent out these twelve, charging them, Go nowhere among the Gentiles and do not go into any town of the Samaritans;

By scripture, do you agree christ's earthly ministry was primarily for the Jews with two exceptions where he had encounters with Gentiles

2 Thessalonians 2:3-4
Amplified Bible (AMP)
3 Let no one deceive or beguile you
in any way, for that day will not
come except the [a]apostasy comes
first [unless the predicted great [b]
falling away of those who have
professed to be Christians has
come], and the man of lawlessness
(sin) is revealed, who is the son of
doom (of perdition),
4 Who opposes and exalts himself
so proudly and insolently against
and over all that is called God or
that is worshiped, [even to his
actually] taking his seat in the
temple of God, proclaiming that he
himself is God.

Are you saying this prophecy is meant for the Pope, since you belong to that same temple of God where he makes himself God?

Did Jesus say he makes himself "God" instead of "god"?

10 And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.

11 And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:

12 That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.


Thank God you agree the pope has a case to answer but His followers too shall also be condemned, don't be too comfortable.

The pope has a case to answer. His accusers have a case to answer. Every human being has a case to answer.

But we are glad to be in the temple of God.

Ok, I think I get what you mean. You are there because, it is a temple of God, you don't follow their doctrines like calling Mary your mother, staying celibate to enhance holiness, doctrine of universality, reverencing images etc. Right?

If that were the case, we would all be doomed. The pope gave us the Bible which you adhere to. If the pope is satanic, then the bible is satanic.

The problem is not being in the temple of God. Do you worship/honor the son of perdition, knowing fully well he is not of God? Do you live by what he give? He is not there as a "photo," he influence billions of people who call him father.

No wonder you all are being deceived by oral tradition from him instead of sticking with the scriptures.

The samaritans fear God but worship idol. For you to truly worship God in spirit and in truth, you must not be led/influenced by the son of perdition and his doctrine.
