“This is the resting place, let the weary rest”;
and, “This is the place of repose”
but they would not listen. So then, the word of
the Lord to them will become:
Do this, do that,
a rule for this, a rule for that;
a little here, a little there
Where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is Liberty.

>It's pretty hard to have loyalty to two countries at a time
>wonder which one gets dibs
Same can be said about Catholics. Who's their loyalty to? America, or Rome?
Notice you attack the messenger rather than the message?
Who's God? Jesus Father, or the Catholic God? Mary their image whom they put before God?
Among those born to women, none have arisen greater than John the Baptist, but even the least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he.

The reason my Father loves me is that I lay down my life—only to take it up again. No one takes it from me, but I lay it down of my own accord. I have authority to lay it down and authority to take it up again. This command I received from my Father.
The authority was His. HE said it must happen. When Peter said it must never happen, He rebuked Peter.
Jesus told you, the one who handed Him over committed the greater sin. It wasn't Judas.
But the authority was His, and HE said it must happen. The Father didn't stop it, but it was Jesus that said it must happen in faith and let it happen. He had the authority, He handed Himself over.
He is counted among the transgressors.
"Forgive them Father, they know not what they do"
Jesus told you no man took His life. Why do you call Jesus a liar?
Truth is annoying?
Plot twist, it was vodka.
What's dense is to call Jesus a liar. He said No one takes His life.
The authority was His. He said no one takes His life. He said "Forgive them Father for they know not what they do" yet you claim they killed Him and judge them.
"Where two or more gather, there am I"
Why do you call Him a liar? No one took His life. He prayed for their forgiveness because they knew not what they did, he DID know, yet you accuse them. Who are you to call unclean what He calls clean?
This
>they clearly did take his life
in spite of Jesus saying this
>The reason my Father loves me is that I lay down my life—only to take it up again.No one takes it from me, but I lay it down of my own accord. I have authority to lay it down and authority to take it up again. This command I received from my Father.”
equals you calling Jesus a liar.
Yet here you are, your sins forgiven, and you accuse them of killing Jesus and being guilty though Jesus said otherwise.
Attached parable comes to mind.
>explain how death does not apply here
You've got the wrong anon, that wasn't me. I'm the one saying no one took Jesus life, HE gave it.
