well Jesus does give the keys to Peter, so I am not sure about what you are saying here. As far as Jesus having the keys, of course He does. But the whole point is that Peter serves Jesus through teh keys. Peter is not God of course! But Peter is chosen by God to fulfill a ministry for Him.
your popes keep LYING about HAVING the keys...as per your assumption about Jesus having the keys...Peter 'fulfilling a ministry' ....get your story together!
martalog, just as Jesus remains the true Shepherd (in Heaven) while Peter is merely the vicarious shepherd (on earth), Jesus never relinquishes total authority. Rather, He merely delegates it to Peter, His servant. This is exactly the situation in Isaiah 22, where Eliachim holds the key for King Hezekiah. Yet, Hezekiah still ultimately holds the key.
Thus, we're not dealing with an "either-or" situation, but a "both-and" situation. And, if you interpret Rev 3:7 any other way, then you are demoting Jesus from King to prime minister."
this "Key" is merely a metaphor for "authority." Thus, when Jesus gives the Key (or Keys) to Peter, it does not mean that Christ Himself no longer possesses them. For example, if I hold the title of ownership to my car, yet allow you to drive it as my chauffeur, it's still my car. I still possess it. You are just driving it for me.
Thus, Jesus' possession of the Key in Rev 3:7 does not mean that He is without a prime minister on earth. Such an interpretation would assume that, in giving the Keys to Peter, Jesus no longer possessed them Himself for a time; yet now somehow has them back in Rev 3:7.
"this "Key" is merely a metaphor for "authority." Thus, when Jesus gives the Key (or Keys) to Peter, it does not mean that Christ Himself no longer possesses them."
why is the papacy using the 2 keys on the flag? why is your papacy claiming "temporal and spiritual" power due to the "keys that were given to Peter?
since you attack our interpretation without seeming to have an established interpretation of your own, what are you? have you read any church history?
GOD, who is Himself a "Father Figure", has always provided a human "Father Figure", a "Chief Shepherd", a visible leader on earth to act as a liaison between Himself and His people. In the OT, His Chief Shepherds were Noah, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Joseph, Moses, and David, to name a few.
In the New Testament, the "Father Figure", and "Chief Shepherd", of GOD's people, the Church, is Saint Peter. His successors down through the centuries are affectionately called, Papa, or let us use the Italian word meaning the same as father, the Pope.
"... the "Father Figure", and "Chief Shepherd", of GOD's people, the Church, is Saint Peter"
Peter was the apostles to the Jews(Gal. 2:8) so stop claiming him for your PAGAN church...
as for the "Papa" last time i've checked your present pope HAS no children(even though a lot of his predecessors were very sexually active to say the least )
and if you chose to call your pope a "spiritual" father that's against what Jesus teaches in the BIBLE (Matth. 23:9) so either way you're wrong
mighty potty mouth you have there...i'm very disappointed if you call yourself Christian for in your ignorance if you insult anyone you are isulting Jesus for we are made in his likeness..go discharge your anger elsewhere not here!!!
actually answer this: how does a Protestant authenticate what he is reading is of the one faith of Christ, is holy, is UNIVERSAL, is authenticated through the successors of the Apostles? where did Scripture come from, did it fall from the sky? Who received it, kept it, and taught it until the first Protestant was born in 1520?
more than half of the Scripture(OT) was before any of the churches(be it RCC or protestant) so your false assumption and the LIE, RCC its been teaching you( that the catholic church is responsible for giving us the Bible) is a FAIRY tale
read some church history...GOD is responsible for GIVING and PRESERVING HIS WORD !
no I give up you hold the fullness of the truth, you are going straight to heaven...is that wat u want to hear? you don't even say what you are and trash the church of Christ for what YOU believe it teaches...the Bible is a person, so not all was written hence tradition, the Lord didn't run around with a book, he was an oral teacher...your anger proves you are not gifted as a true apostle...
I'm married to a Muslim and it is Christians like you that push ppl to believe in other religions for the lack of Love and Embrace with even your fellow Christian bros & sis..look at you..you are in rage..you need to read the writings of the church fathers...everyone was catholic at the beginning, when our orthodox bros think of Christians they think of the Pope and not all the multitude of theologies that protestants cannot even agree on...splinters may I say!!!
"I'm married to a Muslim and it is Christians like you that push ppl to believe in other religions for the lack of Love "
the BIBLE says that unless you believe " that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures"(1Cort. 15:3-4)
your wife and anyone else that don't believe will go to HELL no matter how 'nice' and 'good' they are
very nice! i hope youll make more videos like this for our protestant brothers. they are like little children. we need to speak to them slowly and make them understand by pictures and examples. nice work! keep it up! God bless!
LOL, if the blind lead the blind.....they'll both end up in the ditch. That was ignorant and I'm ashamed I even watched the whole thing.

BTW you never said what you were, but now I know..and make sure you ask yoursefl this 70 times 7:

Jesus was clear that not all was written...are you gonna argue with HIM too?

You are not answering me what John 16:13 means!
If you believe everything is in the Bible...
Then why can't these words of Jesus Christ, be found anywhere in it?
