The New Testament Church Part 1

The "church" is not a monolith, it is made up of congregations, with their own deacons, elders, pastors, and church rule. They are all independent of each other. If you have read the Bible, you can clearly see this. The Roman Catholic church, is the result of man taking it over, and putting it under one authority, its own!

[iHymn75]

Okay...so when did Jesus any of the apostles preach ANYTHING this man is talking about? Jesus (who is God) said worship is in spirit and in truth! When did He say it was "liturgical". Besides this, all that stuff is like an "act" or piety or holiness but not really done from the heart (but out of someone's traditions). Hope this fella gets it right! Just start worshiping God in spirit/truth ALL the time and take notes from the apostles (I think they know what their talking about).

@iHymn75 Your problem is if one doesn't follow your understanding of the Scriptures. Then there wrong?

Is it possible your understanding could be wrong?

The speaker touches on liturgical and gives Biblical reference. Do you understand what Liturgical means?

Who are you to judge someone's heart as an act?

Oh is it possible that the "someone's tradition" could be the Apostolic Tradition that Biblically we are told to follow?

The Apostles clearly know what they were talking about. Do u really know?

SATAN!!!!

[zacharybrown2003]

nope wrong. It is the Roman Catholic Church. The Holy Roman Catholic Church, headed by the Vicar of Christ, Pope Benidict XVI is the One, Holy, Catholic and Apostolic Church. The Othodox Church left long ago.

@zacharybrown2003 The Roman church is not guided by the Holy Spirit. Your popes made sure of that by adding the filioque. Peace

[iHymn75]

@zacharybrown2003 God has no "vicar"! Christ is STILL (and EVER will be) the Head of His church.

To be honest I dont know about that, but I doubt it. Especially if he had kids that would not be allowed because he would have to take care of his kids and therefore wouldnt have time to be a bishop since they literally almost never sleep. I know this one bishop my dad is close to and everyone loves him, we honeslty have no clue when he sleeps, people are lined up till 4:00am wanting to talk to him daily

[psevdhome]

Ah, true. Thanks for your answer. I wish to thank you very much for putting these videos on youtube. I am studying in a seminary to maybe someday become a priest/deacon and these videos are an awesome resource. Thanks a lot! God Bless!

[ihciixc]

Yeah He is, So in the orthodox Church he cant become a bishop, a Priest is the highest he can be now.

[rightlydivide08]

Why can he only be a priest? see thats the set up in the catholic churches that dont make sense. We have pastors,elders,bishops and deacons. Those that seek to be in charge are least in heaven; servantude is what he taught.

[ihciixc]

He can only be a priest because a bishop has far more responsibilities than a priest and he would not have enough time to take care of a wife and children. Our Bishops work 24/7and the traveling never stops. By the way, you cant choose to be a bishop, you can only decide on becoming a priest. The Bishops are the ones who decide together on which priests they believe should serve as bishops. So no one can seek to be in charge, as you said.

i have a question i see this picture and i see everything on it even marry but were in world is Jesus? jus thought id ask well have a nice day!

[ihciixc]

If you look close Mary is Holding baby Jesus, this picture if focusing on the story of the Birth of Christ, see the donkey mary is riding in the corner? And the camels in the bottom left corner referring to when they fled to Egypt with baby Jesus

[kiekie84]

thanks for clearing that up i will say however baby Jesus is a bit faded & kinda hard to see/find just thought id point it out cuz i know non catholics can use this to start up stuff like they may say "wheres Jesus you marry worshipers!!!" & although that statement may be true i don't like any hate against anyone & "the way" some ppl go about things is wrong because its very unchrist like so just thought id point that out in case you wanna fix it if not its cool well bye & have an awesome day!

[ihciixc]

Its ok that Baby Jesus is a bit faded, its only a picture we dont worship pictures so its not a big deal. The picture is just showing the story of his Birth.

we dont worship Mary incase anyone is wondering

have an awesome day too lol.

[kiekie84]

well i'll have an awesome day but i wont accept that the catholic church doesnt worship marry whatever you pray too thats a form of worship calling too asking for help from and i know there are prayers to marry but im not here to pic and point so i guess i'll let you be and that will be that soo good luck in life and Good bye

[ihciixc]

Im not Catholic im Orthodox. And the Orthodox church doesnt worship Mary nor do we "pray to" mary. Prayer and asking intercession are 2 different things

[psevdhome]

Don't mean to nitpick but if he's married and his wife dies, then he can be chosen to be ordained a bishop, isn't that right?

[seltian]

Is this priest married? Just wondering.
