ArchivedCalling all Catholics!Webmaster Wrote: Read it in context, dont stop there carry on. You will see Jesus is clearly addressing the scribes and the Pharisees. Lets take a further look into scripture, and see what eles is said about the word Priest. let’s read Isaiah 61. But ye shall be named the Priests of the LORD: men shall call you the Ministers of our God: ye shall eat the riches of the Gentiles, and in their glory shall ye boast yourselves. For your shame ye shall have double; and for confusion they shall rejoice in their portion: therefore in their land they shall possess the double: everlasting joy shall be unto them. For I the LORD love judgment, I hate robbery for burnt offering; and I will direct their work in truth, and I will make an everlasting covenant with them. And their seed shall be known among the Gentiles, and their offspring among the people: all that see them shall acknowledge them, that they are the seed which the LORD hath blessed. I will greatly rejoice in the LORD, my soul shall be joyful in my God; for he hath clothed me with the garments of salvation, he hath covered me with the robe of righteousness, as a bridegroom decketh himself with ornaments, and as a bride adorneth herself with her jewels. For as the earth bringeth forth her bud, and as the garden causeth the things that are sown in it to spring forth; so the Lord GOD will cause righteousness and praise to spring forth before all the nations. (Isaiah 61:6-11) You shall be named a Priest. In I Peter 2:9, we find out that this is true. We are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, and a purchased people. This verse goes on and tells us one of the things that Priest need to do. But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light: (1 Peter 2:9) Aieno Wrote: Can you prove that Catholic Traditions dont come from the apostles? I dont flood you with nothing, but biblical scripture to support the Cathoilic Church. Show me where I used tradition to defend the church, go ahead show me. I can answer everything you have listed above, but is it worth my time? Infact I have answered them in past debates with you. Peace |
