Bible Question:
Why is the New Testement translated in Greek? The People of Greece were pagan. How do know that some of their pagan doctrine is not mixed into New Testement scripture. Also, I NEED to know if Roman Catholics are Christians because I dont see how they are. |
Bible Answer: Even though the people in general were pagan, nevertheless the language and customs of the day were Greek. Not all of the Greek Romans were in hardy approval of the multi- deistic religions of the day. Now, As a former Roman Catholic - there are many who choose to stay in the Cathoilic Church. These folks are born agin of the Spirit of God. They know Christ and these Catholics are surprisingly hardy evangelists. The Roman Catholic Church however, does not follow many scriptural principles, such as the new birth, marriage, etc. More later....HHannaJr |
