The scripture is Jesus talking, I don't question Christ or His authority. Why would the Catholic Church assume they are the authority? Jesus told His disciples, and they are the witness to what is written. Everything was to be done as Christ commanded them.Quote:

I don't interpret scripture - do you?Quote:

NKJV
So the Holy Spirit is the interpreter, and 1 Cor 4:6 tells us not to go beyond what is written. Where is the written word of the Holy Spirit?
I couldn't care less if you do or not. I seek God's approval not yours. You seem to be somewhat obsessed with me. Why don't you concern yourself more with what God says in His word?Quote:

The same Holy Spirit that descended on Peter and the other Apostles in tongues of fire at Pentecost?Quote:

My question: So you err in your understanding of Scripture?
Your answer: Answered.
Please clarify: Yes or No?
Yes this proves my point; there is an authority over scripture. In verse 20 we see that scripture isn’t open to private interpretation. And in 1 Cor 4:5 ff we see that there is no written word of the Holy Spirit. This is quite different then what you’ve said in the past. In the past insisted that the indwelling Spirit interpreted scripture for you, thus scripture interpreted scripture. Maybe you could restate you stance once more.Quote:

Answered. Do you harass everyone after they answer questions, or just those who don't agree with you? Were you one of those children who never stopped saying "are we there yet?..." or continually demanding everyone after your parents told you "no" but you refused to accept it because you didn't like it?Quote:

This is for questions and answers not fighting and insulting back and forth,
If some of you wish to argue this is not the place for it.
This is getting old.
