Re: A Thread For Catholics by Nobody: 7:59am On May 08, 2015
Ubenedictus:
there is a good reason I didn't comment on the issue of darkness.

It is a funny case.

Darkness is like a default mode, I don't think it was created on it own, it is no a "creation" per say, Gen 1:1 says

In the begining God created the heavens and the earth.

The moment it mention creation of heavens and earth it immediately assumes that darkness was the default mode. Darkness is not a thing, it simply a absence of a thing. It is the default mode of creation that is why the first word gen records is
"Let the be light".

Light is not the natural mode of the created world darkness is, light is trully speaking the created thing.




Anyway it is a silly philosophical discuss.

Darkness is like evil, it isn't a thing, it is just the absence of true good, evil is another thing not created it is the absence of something, the next mode once "good" disappears.
Lol!

I don't think there is anything like a "silly philosophical discuss".

Well, if you think there is, then let me ask a theological question, which I hope you won't call silly too...

Could you explain the following verse, in the light of your response above?

Isaiah 45:7Good News Translation (GNT)

7 I create both light and darkness; I bring both blessing and disaster. I, the Lord, do all these things.


Um...you can focus on the underlined only.

PS: I don't think evil is simply an absence of good. I think evil is substantive.

Re: A Thread For Catholics by Syncan(m): 12:06pm On May 08, 2015
Today's First reading Acts 15:22-31

The apostles and elders decided to choose delegates to send to Antioch with Paul and Barnabas; the whole church concurred with this. They chose Judas known as Barsabbas and Silas, both leading men in the brotherhood, and gave them this letter to take with them:
‘The apostles and elders, your brothers, send greetings to the brothers of pagan birth in Antioch, Syria and Cilicia. We hear that some of our members have disturbed you with their demands and have unsettled your minds. They acted without any authority from us; and so we have decided unanimously to elect delegates and to send them to you with Barnabas and Paul, men we highly respect who have dedicated their lives to the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. Accordingly we are sending you Judas and Silas, who will confirm by word of mouth what we have written in this letter. It has been decided by the Holy Spirit and by ourselves not to saddle you with any burden beyond these essentials: you are to abstain from food sacrificed to idols; from blood, from the meat of strangled animals and from fornication. Avoid these, and you will do what is right. Farewell.’
The party left and went down to Antioch, where they summoned the whole community and delivered the letter. The community read it and were delighted with the encouragement it gave them.



I just had to post the whole passage dear brethren so as to drive home the beauty of the message. Beloved, don't you often hear people claiming to have been anointed by God in the night and they start a "church" in the morning, and they tell you that their authority is the word of God. Hahaha, did we just read something different above or isn't this passage in their scripture? The apostles and elders said..."they acted without authority from us..." Ha, so authority was needed from men, na wa o. Can you imagine what they even wrote..."It has been decided by the Holy Spirit and by ourselves..." what Impetus! What Audacity! Note that those who went without their authority were "some of our members", they were "born again" yet it didn't confer on them the authority to make doctrines. the authority lies with the apostles and elders, who Jesus had earlier told Peter to "feed my lambs"Jn 21:15-17 and to "strengthen the faith of your brothers" Lk 22:32. juzzybabe,that is why when the leaders of the church made the doctrine of no circumcision needed; in about 35AD, they said "It has been decided by the Holy Spirit and by ourselves". When their successors declared the doctrine of the Trinity in 325AD, Jnrbayano, they said "It has been decided by the Holy Spirit and by ourselves". When they canonized the books of the bible as scriptures as early as Hippo 393AD; Aizenosa, they said "It has been decided by the Holy Spirit and by ourselves". Papist, When they declared the blessed Virgin Mary "God bearer (Theotokus); in 430AD, they said "It has been decided by the Holy Spirit and by ourselves". Frodobee, this is the authority of the One, Holy, Roman, Catholic, Church Instituted by Christ upon the rock "Peter" and which the gates of hell shall never overcome.

My faith! My pride!

Good day brethren, a splendid day ahead to all.
