  • What infallibility does do is prevent a pope from solemnly and formally teaching as "truth" something that is, in fact, error. It does not help him know what is true, nor does it "inspire" him to teach what is true. He has to learn the truth the way…
  • The subject of papal infallability, implying that someone is perfect, sinless, or blameless is completely out of sync with the specific teachings of the bible. There is no debate when it comes down to the Bible. If we claim ourselves to be Christian…

  • "Certainly no people needed the message about Christ more than these people who were begging Jesus to leave. Jesus had greatly blessed this man and so gave him the hardest task of all, to go home and witness there for Christ. In Galilee Jesus had se…

  • how about instead of continuing to petition for the very few hard working moderators of this site to work on something that isn't exactly all that urgent, you take the time to save these pictures, title them, post them, save them, sort them as you w…

  • There is a distinct line. 100% human but also a 100% perfect. in His perfection, even when satan came to tempt Him, He remained unwaivering. The matter does not lie in whether or not He was tempted, it was in whether or not He let temptation enter i…
