[W:164]Early Church beliefs on the divinity of Jesus Christ

Re: Early Church beliefs on the divinity of Jesus Christ

Jesus was already resurrected prior to the ending in Mark. What's more, that added ending could well have been valid oral tradition.

Jesus is Risen indeed!

Oral tradition is tantamount to hearsay.How is hearsay 'validated'?

Yet, he did not make a physical appearance in the older versions, indicating a 'spiritual' one. That appears to be a later concept
 
Re: Early Church beliefs on the divinity of Jesus Christ

The only ones of your quotes that support your thesis are the ones from ignatius, a solitary person, although in the early second century. The clement quote does not, nor are the NT quotes unambiguous. There seems to be a great amount of eisegesis there.



Nice!
 
Re: Early Church beliefs on the divinity of Jesus Christ

I'm on record here many times as stating that anyone who derives solace from their faith, I consider that to be a good thing.You just seem to be hell bent on hating those who don't believe exactly as you do,even condemning them to eternal damnation as you hide behind your beliefs,including other Christians...that's on you. Your post above proves this to be fact.

I would ask you to show me where I did that but I know you can't tell me because I have done no such thing.

They are still upset about the Kavanaugh confirmation.

No, it's not "nice", this is Ramoss standard opening gambit, he opens with claims about context, even though he has no idea of what the context of ONE of these comments is, let alone all of them. Also, he never backs up his claims, and he doesn't have to, the atheists will line up behind him no matter what he says.
 
Re: Early Church beliefs on the divinity of Jesus Christ

I'm still waiting for you to say something that you haven't pulled out of your...hat.

Why wasn't Arius condemned prior to the council? Why did they only label Origen a heretic hundreds of years later, after he died? Why did they accept his teachings prior to it?

I answered the question, stop trolling.

Stop lying. Its a sin, FYI.

That's hilarious. Too bad the empty tomb blows that to hades.

Does it?? That's the claim.

That's the one you can't beat. All you can do is advance your typical anti-Christianity theories, sans evidence.

Apparently, you don't know the difference between evidence and a claim.

You do understand your signature would be very appropriate to apply to 'Conservatives' like Trump?

So, you don't have anything to say about the topic, you're just here trolling, right?

OK, so we troll the thread and hit on a one word reply, and get the whole ****ing thing wrong!

How "American"

For the record so that even ****ing low life dimwits know, I was commenting on the use of the word, and have absolutely ZERO interest it US petty bull**** arguments.

Now go troll another American, or at least someone stupid enough to bother reading your ****.
