  3. “)In those days Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee and was baptized by John in the Jordan. And when he came up out of the water, immediately he saw the heavens being torn open and the Spirit descending on him like a dove. And a voice came from heaven, “You are my beloved Son; with you I am well pleased.”(Mark 1:9-11) “16 And when Jesus was baptized, immediately he went up from the water, and behold, the heavens were opened to him, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove and coming to rest on him; 17 and behold, a voice from heaven said, "This is my beloved Son, with whom I am well pleased." (Matthew 3:16-17) “When all the people were being baptized, Jesus was baptized too. And as he was praying, heaven was opened and the Holy Spirit descended on him in bodily form like a dove. And a voice came from heaven: “You are my Son, whom I love; with you I am well pleased.” (Luke 3:21-22) ”32 And John bore witness: "I saw the Spirit descend from heaven like a dove, and it remained on him. 33 I myself did not know him, but he who sent me to baptize with water said to me, 'He on whom you see the Spirit descend and remain, this is he who baptizes with the Holy Spirit.' 34 And I have seen and have borne witness that this is the Son of God." - John 1:32-34 and “Father, glorify your name!" Then a voice came from heaven, "I have glorified it, and will glorify it again” (John 12:28).

  11. You are safer. Those Beach Jaws are terrifying!
  12. Now that Great Whites are beaching like Killer Whales to attack people, you arn’t even safe on the shoreline. ?
  13. Do you affirm Jesus is God? That The Father is God, The Son is God and the Holy Spirit is God.
  14. Yes, “He said to them, "Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation.” (Mark 16:15) “How, then, can they call on the one they have not believed in? And how can they believe in the one of whom they have not heard? And how can they hear without someone preaching to them, And how can anyone preach unless they are sent? As it is written: "How beautiful are the feet of those who bring good news” (Romans 10:14-15) “We are therefore Christ's ambassadors, as though God were making his appeal through us. We implore you on Christ's behalf: Be reconciled to God.” (2 Corinthians 5:20)
  15. Sharks are one creation I am not fond of.. ??
  16. Interesting passage from non-canonical apocryphal book of III Corinthians: ”For I delivered to you in the beginning the things which I received of the [holy] apostles which were before me, who were at all times with Jesus Christ: namely, that our Lord Jesus Christ was born of Mary [who is] of the seed of David [according to the flesh], the Holy Spirit being sent forth from heaven from the Father to her, so that he might come down into this world and redeem all flesh by his flesh, and raise us up from the dead in the flesh, just as he has shown us in himself as an example.”
  17. I hope to somehow participate in a live online service and Lord’s Supper.
  18. Well met. You get 2 points for proving effiacy. Another 2 points for your argument for metaphor. Zwingli could be of some help here. Romanite Rebuttal: We live out the sacrifice of Christ, “I have been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me. And the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.” (Galatians 2:20), if this is so then it stands to reason that Christ’s sacrifice can be presenf in the Sacrament and distribute gratia. We are expected to work oit our salvation and be perfect, “Be perfect, therefore, as your heavenly Father is perfect,” (Matthew 5:48) and “Therefore, my dear friends, as you have always obeyed--not only in my presence, but now much more in my absence--continue to work out your salvation with fear and trembling.” (Philippians 2:12). Christ did pay for all sin, but expects us to live perfectly and become holy like the Saints. The Cross is holy, it is venerated on Good Friday service. Constantine’s mother, St. Helena, found three crosses and the one that healed people was declared The True Cross. To Mother Church’s great sorrow, the True Cross was lost on July 4th, at the Battle of Hattin to the infidel Saladin. But through the Eucharist and a Crucifix, we bring the cross and Christ into the church. Its says the Galatians saw Christ Crucified, this is evidence of a Stigmata experiance like St. Francis of Assisi, where Christ appears and a worthy person recieved His wounds on their body. St. Paul experianced the Stigmata “From now on let no one cause me trouble, for I bear on my body the marks (scars) of Jesus” (Galatians 6:17). Wafer-god is not what Mother Church preaches. In the Wafer is substance, and it transmutes into His body of Christ when the priest declares during Elevation of the Host: “Per ipsum et cum ipso et in ipso est tibi Deo Patri omnipotenti in unitate Spiritus Sancti omnis honor et gloria per omnia saecula saeculorum (Through him, and with him, and in him, O God, almighty Father, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, all glory and honour is yours, for ever and ever).” The Eucharist transports Christ’s sacrifice ro our time: “In the Eucharist the same sacrifice that Jesus made only once on the cross is made present at every Mass. According to Compendium of the Catechism of the Catholic Church"The Eucharist is the very sacrifice of the Body and Blood of the Lord Jesus which he instituted to perpetuate the sacrifice of the cross throughout the ages until his return in glory. Thus he entrusted to his Church this memorial of his death and Resurrection. It is a sign of unity, a bond of charity, a paschal banquet, in which Christ is consumed, the mind is filled with grace, and a pledge of future glory is given to us."
