Subject: Beware "Another" |
Bible Note: Hello humbled, Thanks for bringing it back to the issue. Too often these threads get way off focus (I know I have contributed to it) and we miss the opportunity to address the issue. Personally, I have tried to push for other's to quote things in context (as others on the forum encourage as well). Thanks for taking Doc's quote of the Pope and putting it in context. I was one of those following along without looking for myself to see what the Pope actually said. I am not Catholic and have a whole list of doctrinal teachings of the Roman Catholic Church that I disagree with based on scripture (as I do with other denominations). Anyway, It appears clear, when taken in context, what the Roman Catholic's Pope was saying. "Anyone who discovers Christ must lead others to him." "But religion constructed on a “do-it-yourself†basis cannot ultimately help us. It may be comfortable, but at times of crisis we are left to ourselves. Help people to discover the true star which points out the way to us: Jesus Christ! LET US SEEK TO KNOW HIM BETTER and better, so as to be able to guide others to him with conviction. (emphasis added). Mar 9:38 John said to Jesus, "Teacher, we saw someone driving out demons in your name. We tried to stop him, because he wasn't a follower like us." Mar 9:39 But Jesus said, "Don't stop him! For no one who works a miracle in my name can slander me soon afterwards. Mar 9:40 For whoever is not against us is for us. Thanks again humbled, Jeff |
