@benglishtea First, don't be silly--just look at my previous comment. I already said that a later publication, in 1922, denied the phrase being on the Tiara, but not the phrase itself. Do you even read my comments before responding? Guess not.

Second, you're calling me crazy? Here's a thought for you: is this behavior satisfactory in the eyes of God? I hardly think that name-calling is a "holy" trait. Things sure are ran differently in the Roman Catholic Church.

@benglishtea are you crazy? Show me where i reposted what you said. I said Vicarius Filii Dei is not on the popes crown.

[benglishtea]

@xxzzxx99 Do you not read what I type or what? You actually gave me information I've already posted. Sheesh......catholics.....

@benglishtea If you read the rest of the WIKI article that you quoted you'll have noted the following: "the Latin words for this designation ( "Vicarius Filii Dei" ) are not inscribed, as anti-Catholics maintain, on the Pope's tiara." Also "The writer of the 1915 article later withdrew his statements"

[benglishtea]

@xxzzxx99 You don't know your history very well. The earliest known use of "Vicarius Filii Dei" dates to the 8th or 9th century, the Donation of Constantine. Quote: "An article in the April 18, 1915 issue of 'Our Sunday Visitor: What are the letters on the Pope’s crown and what do they signify if anything? The letters on the Pope's mitre are these: Vicarius Filii Dei, which is a Latin for Vicar of the Son of God."

In 1922, the publication denied it's on the tiara, but not the term itself.

@benglishtea This title "Vicarius Filii Dei?" is a fraudulent one created out of nothing by Ellen Gould White, inventor of the Seventh day Adventists. You will never find it in a Catholic document.

[benglishtea]

@xxzzxx99 Surely you are familiar with the term "Vicarius Filii Dei?" The "pope" is given that title--not something "I made up." This means that man has elevated himself to the station that is only reserved for God alone. The pope is not "the vicar of Christ," as the Roman church says he is--he's just a man. And you say "humble?" As for Luther, who isn't prideful? Who isn't depraved? You are equally so when compared to him. Our righteousness is as filthy rags. Roman church = antichrist power.

[xxzzxx99]

@benglishtea Seeing as how you're a scholar, can you give a reference for 'God on earth'? Coz it sounds like something you made up. And yes Luther was very prideful and depraved. The catholic church teaches humility. But no one is perfect. We all have pride. (not as much as Luther though, who was filled with it as was his spiritual, father Satan)

[benglishtea]

@xxzzxx99 1) your opinion, not "truth." 2) I don't got by what I'm taught, I go by what I study for myself. 3) Ironical is like using "ain't" -- it's not passable for scholar work. 4) You're calling Luther "prideful," and the Roman Catholic UnChurch is not? Look at the name of the pope -- they teach he's "God on earth." Pride? Pride? You can't see the forest for the trees.

[xxzzxx99]

@benglishtea EVerything I said was the truth, you've just been taught lies. As for ironical, look it up in a dictionary. As for the Greek Textus Receptus, its a moot point. Its a different translation of the canon which catholic bishops chose. (minus the books which the depraved Luther decided, to take out on his own authority, an act of immense pride).
