Syncan:

"The learned world have been much divided on this subject; but, notwithstanding that the erudite Grabe, with Archbishop Cave, Dr. Parker, and other divines, has strenuously contended for their admission into the canon of Scripture, they are deemed apocryphal". The Rev. Jeremiah Jones observes, that the common people in England have this Epistle in their houses, in many places, fixed in a frame, with the picture of Christ before it; and that they generally, with much honesty and devotion, regard it as the word of God, and the genuine Epistle of Christ.

http://ecmarsh.com/crl/lost_books/epistle_of_jesus.htm

The sentence in bold describes the state of things, it is not canon because the church has not said it is. However we who are present today owe the early church fathers for doing the hard work and canonizing the ones they feel sure. I do not have anything against him if he believes the epistle is canon worthy, as a personal view. Not everybody agreed on all the books.

Don't make me laugh !

Here's what the Catholic Encyclopaedia has to say :

"The fact related in the correspondence has long since ceased to be of any historical value. The text is borrowed in two places from that of the Gospel, which of itself is sufficient to disprove the authenticity of the letter. Moreover, the quotations are made not from the Gospels proper, but from the famous concordance of Tatian, compiled in the second century, and known as the "Diatessaron", thus fixing the date of the legend as approximately the middle of the third century."

Just quit whilst you're still ahead.

All you wrote above did not disprove what I stated, nor did I see what could be funny in my post. The ish here is that you accused Eusebius of forgery, and all you have as prove, is that he sees an epistle as true, which was later proclaimed by the church as not. Is there another reason you called him the father of pious forgery?

forexprophet: @ damerry and others: I was much more a catholic than u were. It was in my 3rd year at the Major seminary that my lecturer told me d truth secretly about the origin of the worship of mary in d cath. church, emperor constatine who forced himself to bcome d first pope......(peter was never a pope). how he introduced roman idolatries into the church at rome dat was planted by paul b4 it was taken over by the emperor,the church at jerusalem was not part of all d take over.......later paul had to write them a later in Romans 1:1- the end warning of the idolatry. It was d church at rome that became THE ROMAN CATHOLIC CHURCH. And becos it has d backing of the emperor/pope who was the super power of the then political world, the Roman catholic church spread like wild fire by persecuting other part of churches planted by the apostles......this refered to the INQUISITION PERIOD and this ushered in what is called THE DARK AGE OF THE CHURCH. Pope/emperor ordered dat those who do not accept his idolatarous mixed christianity shuld b burnt alive.......

I THINK YOU ARE THE ONE THAT SHOULD DO YOUR RESEARCH WELL

Time will fail me to tell u all more. but i will b posting more of d UNKNOWN SECRET that average catholics are ignorant about. i wil soon post d secrets of NIMROD AND SERAMIS which is d root of "the woman and d child" image in d cath church, VATICAN I & II etc
You hv stirred d bee hornet my friend. sit down drop all the thing u tink u know and make some research

I HV SINCE LEFT THE SEMINARY SHORTLY BEFORE OUR ORDINATION WHEN WE WERE ABOUT TO TAKE THE OATH OF SECRECY to keep the cath church secrets secret...........dat is why no rev. father wil giv u straight forward answer if u ask him deep question about the cath. church.

Honestly, i hv deep concern and pity for multitude of blind follower who dont knw dat the cath church is jst Roman branch of the jerusalem dat was corrupted by roman idol worship.......... wil post soon
Tnk u bro. I also devoted and gave my all nd all 2 d cath ch b4 realising dis truths. Even a priest cudn't ans my question with any biblical prove.
Oh i wish i cn convert all dos i hv promoted into consecration to mary out of dat ch.

No any concrete proof to weda mary cn hear all our hail marys. Then i see no need to continue praying to her since i knw dat Jesus is the only way to Heaven. It means dat i cn still make heaven if i hv Jesus and dn't hv mary, just like my elder bro. Paul did.

The epistle was a clear fabrication, it was supposedly delivered by the apostle Thaddeus, together with a self-portrait by the artist – Jesus (he wiped his face with the canvass), which brought me to respond to the poster. The forgery is almost certainly the work of Eusebius. He claimed to have found them written in Syriac and personally translated them into Greek, I hope that clears matters.

If Father Abraham could be in heaven and hear the rich man in hades; Mother Mary in heaven can also hear me on earth.

Alleluia!

Keep looking for liars that would tell you all the lies you want to hear about the Catholic Church while Mother Mary continues to hear and intercede for us.

As you type, our Mummy is knocking on Jesus' door for us. Asking him to provide us wine.

As you type, we're listening to our Mummy say "do whatever He tells you."

As you type, Mummy is making Jesus do things even when the "time has not yet come."

Many good things! Physical and spiritual... temporal and eternal.

Keep fighting against devotion to the Mother of God. Perhaps, God will be proud of you.

Maybe it does clear the matter...or maybe it doesn't.

We should be careful about labelling a man a forger when there is no conclusive evidence that he forged.

There remains a possibility that Eusebius found it as he said.

And if he forged it, it wouldnt mean that he couldnt have had other writings that would have been verified to be accurate.

And if he couldn't possibly write any truth because he lied once, it wouldn't mean there aren't any other historical proofs of the use of images in the early Church. Indeed, there are many.

This is exactly why I took you up on this. Eusebius is held in high regards by church historians for his works which gave insights to what happened in the early times. His association with the letter, which was denied canonization, is no different from what others did. I had said earlier that not everyone agreed with every book under scrutiny, as inspired at the time. My worry is that you called such a man "Father of pious forgery" when the only prove you have is that "The forgery is almost certainly the work of Eusebius". Just how fair have you been to him?

Moreso, note that where he spoke of the image of Jesus and the woman with hemorrhage, he was talking about a sculpture that he saw. However there exists other numerous examples of the use of Images in the early church. The catacombs is filled with evidence.

hahaha, Its you and your conscience now. I gave you scriptural insights, contrary to what you expect, you thought you had an intelligent question no catholic could answer. Now that you have listened to His words, harden not your heart....

I was once a catholic,blind as usually not knowin the scriptures bt vain traditions of men miles away from the bible.

no wonder smeone in the 21st century can still say that "salvation is the end product of righteousness". .....see what SUNDAY SUNDAY BULLETIN has caused... tell dat stan blablabla to read his bible

only God is omnipresent no one is or can ever be.
Mary is a role model for women no doubt ever, i respect her GREATLY even morethan catholics.
Jesus never called mary His mother,instead he called her "woman".....see jn 2:4, jn 19:26
Re: Is Mary Omnipresent (everywhere At Thesame Time)? by asamaigho(m): 1:57pm On Oct 27, 2013
damerry: @ op. let me give you what i have.

Concerning the use of images, few images we have now in catholicism date back to the times of the apostles e.g. Saint Luke author of Luke's gospel. He was a painter and made famous images of Madonna and child Jesus.

E.g. Image of Our lady of perpetual help.

Concerning the early church having a devotion to Mary I'll love to give you this 3rd century prayer

We fly to thy patronage O Holy Mother of God, despise not our prayers in our necessities, but ever deliver us from all dangers, O Glorious and Blessed Virgin. Amen. (AD250)

apart from the holy mass which Christ himself was the first to celebrate during the last supper, most other devotions, teachings, doctrines and dogmas came about as the church continued to grow through out ages by the inspiration of the Holy spirit.

E.g. The definition of the 7 sacraments of the church as we have it today took 10 centuries before it was fully compiled, because the church had to counter all heresies before presenting it as non-error.

Even the creeds took alot of years before it was fully compiled as different heresies were been dealt with.

In conclusion, Rome was not built in a day, even at this present age Jesus continues to call people to himself by introducing pious devotion through visionaries.

Go and do a fair-minded research bro. Peace smiley

damerry: First of all, Are you cleared on the subject that the use of images during worship date back to the time of the apostles and that St. Luke was the first person to complete pictures of the holy Mother of God carrying the Child of God in her arms, which He showed to the Holy Virgin for approval, while she was still alive and St. Luke made pictures of the Holy Apostles and bestowed upon the Church this pious and holy tradition of venerating the icons of Christ and His Saints??

Secondly, have you firmly believed that the early church had a devotion to mary??

If yes, we can procced to your first question, because if you Don't really believe these minor and clear empirical facts, i don't think you will believe what i and other Catholics have to say concerning your first question.

Why will mary appear to people and will tell them to carve a medal and wear on their neck and whosoever does so will recieve blessings, healing and grace? Why will she ask people to pray the rosary for them to make heaven? Why will mary ask people to mould her image and venerate it to recieve grace. E.g read the story of St. Catherine, st. Dominic etc.
Do u think that that woman is indeed the mary, mother of Jesus? Or don't u knw dat mary may just be in heaven and doesn't knw wats happening on earth in her name? Don't u knw dat some powerful fallen angels like the queen of heaven (mentioned in Jer.44) is capable of such apparitions?
Beside, Must one devotes himself or herself to mary before going to heaven? When Christ had given us d holy spirit to be with us and help us make heaven, what else do we want?
Don't be decieve, bible says dat: unless a man be born again he can nt enta d kingdom of heaven and nt unless a man is a marian devotee he can nt enta d kingdom of heaven.

@ asco1. I tire 4 u o. But here is an obvious fact.

Protestants are myopic, dem be like..........

" IF IT'S NOT BIBLICAL ( not even scriptural ) IT'S DEMONIC "

FEAR and IGNORANCE lead to the absence of Marian devotions in Protestantism, they believed that these devotions will distract them from Jesus. but theses devotions infact leads us to Jesus and make us love Jesus the more. Guy go do research, protestant reformers even Martin Luther recognized Marian devotions, some Lutheran churches still honour Mary @ present but as i earlier said, Fear and Ignorance makes them think they will be distracted from Jesus hence they have what we call PASSIVE Marian devotion while Catholics have ACTIVE Marian devotions.

Anyway dear asco1, please come back Home, i can discern you left the mother church because of ignorance.

Let me speak in human terms;

All those people where u see say dem serious for dem Marian and other devotions no be mumu oh. E get wetin dem dey enjoy from Der, besides how u go take imagine say over 1 billion Catholics dey go hell Guy u ain't serious.

Guy go do research, protestant reformers even Martin Luther recognized Marian devotions, some Lutheran churches still honour Mary @ present but as i earlier said, Fear and Ignorance makes them think they will be distracted from Jesus hence they have what we call PASSIVE Marian devotion while Catholics have ACTIVE Marian devotions.

Anyway dear asco1, please come back Home, i can discern you left the mother church because of ignorance.

Let me speak in human terms;

All those people where u see say dem serious for dem Marian and other devotions no be mumu oh. E get wetin dem dey enjoy from Der, besides how u go take imagine say over 1 billion Catholics dey go hell Guy u ain't serious.


narrow is d way dat lead to life and few follows it, but broad is d way dat leads to death and many follows it.
Do u knw dat muslims r more dan catholics and they r more self righteous dan catholics, answer dis, do u tink d ova 1 billion more devoted muslims will go 2 hell?

God will judge us by our actions, thoughts, words and omissions according to HIS standards and not by the standard of our ch. 4 our ch cn nt b our excuse 4 been ignorance 2 d Righteousness of God.
Mat.6:33'seek first d kingdom of God and HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS and every oda tin na gwara. Is my motto, wat of u?

(Ex 23:1)- You shall not spread a false report. You shall not join hands with a wicked man to be a malicious witness.

(Prov 19:9)- A false witness will not go unpunished, and he who breathes out lies will perish.

(1Pet 2:1-2) - So put away all malice and all deceit and hypocrisy and envy and all slander. Like newborn infants, long for the pure spiritual milk, that by it you may grow up into salvation... to be a holy priesthood, to offer spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ. ...

( Rev 21:8 ) - But as for the cowardly, the faithless, the detestable, as for murderers, the sexually immoral, sorcerers, idolaters, and all liars, their portion will be in the lake that burns with fire and sulfur, which is the second death.”

(John 8:44) - You are of your father the devil, and your will is to do your father's desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, and has nothing to do with the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks out of his own character, for he is a liar and the father of lies.

This is a false accusation bro....So,You are now implying that the Catholic Church tells us to indulge in those Acts? You and i know that is false!!
I,for example started out from the Block Rosary,and if at all u attended it,you will realise that "Lies" is one of the major Things we are told to abhor...We were taught to emulate the life of Mary,the Saints,etc....
When You progress to join groups like C.B.I.U,C.C.R.N,LAYREADERS,CYON,You will be taught the bible wholly...Infact,if you are the type that live worldly,you cant even abide by the Rules of C.Y.O.N....Do i even add that of Mass Servers?....
Do u even attend Cathecaticals,laity weeks etc?
You sound like the Sunday Church goers!! B4 u left the Catholic,what group were you in?

seconded!
In addition if 2 out of 10 catholics decide to leave the church today, and take their leave, 8 other former catholics will be retracing their steps back to the catholic church because they are Tired of sowings seeds upon seeds and have found nowhere better than Home!
Enough been said! Dear asco1, peace be wit u.
