Thank you sister!

Thank you brother, your comparison is particularly humbling. And your article is excellent! I'll leave it to others to get into the textual debates, which are indeed important to be had, but for me, I feel like even having them concedes too much to the progressives. The Bible is clear, and we don't need to write massive tomes on 1 Timothy 2 to understand what it plainly says.

@@newkingdommedia9434 absolutely true there.

Are you saying, Polycrates was right, and you and I should celebrate Easter, on a day other than Sunday, as Polycrates did!!!? Interestingly, in your attempt (I assume and forgive me if I am wrong bro) to undermine the authority of Rome, you instead raise an historical event which illustrates the accepted authority of Rome. In summary, Iranaues as negotiator in the matter accepted Romes authority, Polycrates despite his poetic language toward the pope thought Romes authority important enough to engage with, and thirdly, a few decades later Romes stipulation on Easter observance was universal. Following is a little meat on the bones. Peace be with your spirit. Pope St. Victor as pope was to summon bishops throughout the world to assemble and draw up decrees to stipulate that Easter would be celebrated on Sunday. When the Asian bishops, along with their spokesman Polycrates, refused to follow Pope Victor, he threatened them with excommunication. Irenaeus, desiring to keep peace with the Asian churches, pleaded with Victor not to go through with it, but he never once challenged Victor’s authority to excommunicate. Irenaeus was not arguing that Quartodecimanism was superior to the Roman tradition; his own witness suggests that he preferred the Roman view. Rather, he was appealing to sanity and gentleness, not to make mountains out of molehills when it comes to legitimate differences in liturgical practice. This gentle rebuke seems to have worked. Eusebius concludes by saying that Irenaeus (whose name means “peace” or “unity”) thus “was well named,” since he “became a peacemaker in this matter, exhorting and negotiating in this way in behalf of the peace of the churches.” We have no information concerning the further course of the matter under Victor I (so far) as it regards the bishops of Asia. All that is known is that in the course of the third century the Roman Easter observance gradually became universal. In Rome itself, an Oriental named Blastus, with a few followers, opposed the pope and brought about a schism, which however, did not grow in importance.

Indeed, but God is on our side. If we are faithful to Him, He will be faithful to us.

Thank you for breaking this down. In our current society anytime I try to explain this to people I’m shunned and called a bigot. God bless you brother

I'm done with keeping quiet about God's word. We will never make any progress as a Church and will only continue to suffer devastating losses until we stop making this error.

Thank you sister!

@@newkingdommedia9434 Debunking catholicism I'm more blessed than mary Proof = Luke 11:27-28 27 And it happened, as He spoke these things, that a certain woman from the crowd raised her voice and said to Him, “Blessed is the womb that bore You, and the breasts which nursed You!” 28 But He said, “More than that, blessed are those who hear the word of God and keep it!” In Luke 11:27 that random woman LITERALLY said Jesus your mother is Blessed, but are Lord Jesus LITERALLY said Believers are more Blessed than mary. Amen and Amen _________________________ CHRIST alone John 14:6 Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me. ACTS 4:12 Nor is there salvation in any other, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved.” There is only One Mediator between God and men, LORD Jesus Christ= 1 Timothy 2:5 For there is one God and one Mediator between God and men, the Man Christ Jesus. Hebrew 9:15 And for this reason He is the Mediator of the new covenant, by means of death, for the redemption of the transgressions under the first covenant, that those who are called may receive the promise of the eternal inheritance. Hebrew 12:24 to Jesus the Mediator of the new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling that speaks better things than that of Abel. Hebrew 8:6 But now He has obtained a more excellent ministry, inasmuch as He is also Mediator of a better covenant, which was established on better promises. Ephesians 2:18 For through Him we both have access by One Spirit to the Father John 15:5 5 “I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without Me you can do nothing. _________________________ Work of God = John 6:28 Then they said to Him, “What shall we do, that we may work the works of God?” 29 Jesus answered and said to them, “This is the work of God, that you believe in Him whom He sent.” _________________________ 1 Timothy 3:2 A bishop then must be blameless, the husband of one wife, temperate, sober-minded, of good behavior, hospitable, able to teach Paul allows bishops to get marry, but catholic church goes against paul. Now these catholic will give a Verses from 1 Corinthians7 to say that paul gave the advice to stay unmarried. But they will not tell you that the same chapter they quote says 1 Corinthians 7:28 "even if you do marry, you have not SINNED". The passage literally says "young women, young men" and a bishop is supposed to be a Church ELDER. Mic drop _________________________ Jesus said Matthew 23:9 9 Do not call anyone on earth your father; for One is your Father, He who is in heaven. And also said Holy Father to Heavenly Father= John 17:11 11 Now I am no longer in the world, but these are in the world, and I come to You. Holy Father, keep through Your name those whom You have given Me, that they may be one as We are. Jesus said call no one Father but still catholics call *pope holy father. Sad _________________________ Whenever a catholic argue about mary being the mother of God Use this to defeat the argument. Luke 8:21 But He answered and said to them, “My mother and My brothers are these who hear the word of God and do it.” Matthew 12:46-50 46 While He was still talking to the multitudes, behold, His mother and brothers stood outside, seeking to speak with Him. 47 Then one said to Him, “Look, Your mother and Your brothers are standing outside, seeking to speak with You.” 48 But He answered and said to the one who told Him, “Who is My mother and who are My brothers?” 49 And He stretched out His hand toward His disciples and said, “Here are My mother and My brothers! 50 For whoever does the will of My Father in heaven is My brother and sister and mother.”. Mark 3:35 For whoever does the will of God is My brother and My sister and mother.” John 19:26-27 26 When Jesus therefore saw His mother, and the disciple whom He loved standing by, He said to His mother, “Woman, behold your son!” 27 Then He said to the disciple, “Behold your mother!” And from that hour that disciple took her to his own home. ( Jesus basically said John is the son of mary, and mary is the mother of John from that time onwards). By the way sarah is the mother of all proof=Galatians 4:21-26. _________________________ We should not pray to apostles Romans 1:25 25 who exchanged the truth of God for the lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen. Acts 10:25-26 25 As Peter was coming in, Cornelius met him and fell down at his feet and worshiped him. 26 But Peter lifted him up, saying, “Stand up; I myself am also a man.” Acts 14:15 15 and saying, “Men, why are you doing these things? We also are men with the same nature as you, and preach to you that you should turn from these useless things to the living God, who made the heaven, the earth, the sea, and all things that are in them, Revelation 19:10 10 And I fell at his feet to worship him. But he said to me, “See that you do not do that! I am your fellow servant, and of your brethren who have the testimony of Jesus. Worship God! For the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy.” Revelation 22:8-9 8 Now I, John, saw and heard these things. And when I heard and saw, I fell down to worship before the feet of the angel who showed me these things. 9 Then he said to me, “See that you do not do that. For I am your fellow servant, and of your brethren the prophets, and of those who keep the words of this book. Worship God." Colossians 2:18 18 Let no one cheat you of your reward, taking delight in false humility and worship of angels, intruding into those things which he has not seen, vainly puffed up by his fleshly mind, You cannot go to Father through saints nor mary, you can only go to the Father through Lord Jesus Christ= John 14:6 Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me. Ephesians 2:18 For through Him we both have access by one Spirit to the Father. Holy Spirit intercedes for us=Romans 8:26 26 Likewise the Spirit also helps in our weaknesses. For we do not know what we should pray for as we ought, but the Spirit Himself makes intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. And CHRIST as well=Romans 8:34 34 Who is he who condemns? It is Christ who died, and furthermore is also risen, who is even at the right hand of God, who also makes intercession for us. Hebrews 7:25 25 Therefore He is also able to save to the uttermost those who come to God through Him, since He always lives to make intercession for them. It's Christ and Holy Spirit who intercedes for us not apostles _________________________ Apostles are allowed to marry, 1 Corinthians 9:1-5 1 Am I not an apostle? Am I not free? Have I not seen Jesus Christ our Lord? Are you not my work in the Lord? 2 If I am not an apostle to others, yet doubtless I am to you. For you are the seal of my apostleship in the Lord. 3 My defense to those who examine me is this: 4 Do we have no right to eat and drink? 5 Do we have no right to take along a believing wife, as do also the other apostles, the brothers of the Lord, and Cephas? If Peter (peter is cephas read John 1:42) the so called "first pope" was married, why does the catholic church doesn't allow "pope" to marry? _________________________ The so called vicar of christ/ pope/holy father Peter called himself a fellow elder in 1 Peter 5:1, and as per the qualifications of elder in Titus 1:5-9 the elder is allowed to get married; then why does the "pope" is required to be celibate and catholic? ( when Peter was neither celibate nor catholic). 1)Peter was not perfect human nor was he a perfect disciple 2)He sank down while walking on water 3)Our Lord said to peter get behind me satan 4)Peter reject our Lord 3 times 5)Our Lord rebuked Peter for calling fire from heaven 6)Our Lord rebuked Peter when he cut of the soilders ear 7)Paul rebuked Peter for being hypocrite because he was acting different in front of Jews and different in front of gentiles. 8) Moses messed up, and he was a important part of Bible ( that's why he never entered the promised land), 9)David messed up ( and he has the Holy Spirit), 10)King Soloman messed up, 11) Saul messed up and God regretted the decision (1 Samuel 15:10-11). Hatrick (Saul then David then Soloman back to back messed up) 12)The apostles run away a day before Lord Jesus got locked up. 13)The early church messed up Rev 2:18-20, 1 Corinthians, Galatians. 14) Apostle John when receiving Revelation worshiped an angel and the angel said "see you do not do that. Worship GOD" Revelation 22:8-9 If these great people could mess up, why do you think the catholic church wouldn't mess up. _ Galatians 4:21-26 21 Tell me, you who desire to be under the law, do you not hear the law? 22 For it is written that Abraham had two sons: the one by a bondwoman, the other by a freewoman. 23 But he who was of the bondwoman was born according to the flesh, and he of the freewoman through promise, 24 which things are symbolic. For these are the two covenants: the one from Mount Sinai which gives birth to bondage, which is Hagar- 25 for this Hagar is Mount Sinai in Arabia, and corresponds to Jerusalem which now is, and is in bondage with her children- 26 but the Jerusalem above is free, which is the mother of us all. Sarah is mother of all, Not mary Also the Church has many name like Christians, Evangelists, Children of God, Believers, servents of God, bride of Christ, but not once the Church is called catholics Changed the 10 commandments by deleting 2nd commandment, and dividing the 10th into 2 commandments. Also changing the real Saturday Sabbath to fake sunday sabbath.

Thank you! Much appreciated

You're welcome!

Amen.

Thank you!

God bless you sister

Wow, what a can of worms (should I say Diet of Worms) we have opened here! The presenter erroneously states the scriptures are "sufficient". 2 Timothy 3:16-17 states scripture is "profitable". "Profitable" is NOT "sufficient", and that is why Christ made his Church the Final Authority on doctrinal truth. This issue of womens ordination and role in the family is just another illustration of how the Protestant practice of "Bible as Final Authority" does not work, because amongst those holding "Bible as Final Authority", there are thousands of different versions of "truth" on women, ordination, culture, etc. A definate organ is required to infallibly decide any doctrinal issue, because Jesus Christ was never vague about the truth he promised. He established His church, to teach His truth, in His name, until the end. Furthermore, and interestingly, the presenter bemoans divorce. Is he aware Protestant groups originally held that both divorce and contraception were wrong "according to the Bible" and that in recent decades they then decided that divorce and contraception were permissable "according to the Bible"? Yet another example of the failure of "Bible as Final Authority". Clearly, the practice of "Bible as Final Authority" is not of Christ, as Christ is not confusion and division. But the presenter is searching for the truth, and I applaude him, and ecourage him to keep searching the truth of history.

God bless you brother

@@newkingdommedia9434 .No reply? In the video you say the Bible states scripture is "sufficient", but it only says "profitable.(2 Timothy 3:16-17). I would think an explanation from you is not an unreasonable expectation. I was reminded of Luther and how he changed the text in Romans to "faith alone". Look I understand your belief in Bible as Final Authority, but surely you would agree there is no need to change the words of scripture to defend your position?

@@DD-bx8rb What do you mean no reply? It says "that the man... may be equipped for *every* good work" Anyway, I have zero interest in turning this into a Cath vs Prot debate. Don't we agree on this issue? Stop being argumentative and actually find common ground for once. P.S. I love how within one minute of your random comment you already have 2 likes, which is frankly pretty sus.

​@@newkingdommedia9434 First can I say, I'm not against you, and also be assured I am very sympathetic with your concern about where the Anglican Communion is heading. I greatly appreciate your admonishment to "find common ground", and surely that involves being able to ask initial questions to find where we are at. so...I completely agree with you that the text says "Every good work". But it still says "profitable" for every good work, not "sufficient" for every good work. I just want to know why you would say the Bible states scripture is "sufficient" when it says Profitable? Peace be with you.

Thank you! And yes let's keep praying that the church will correct her wrongs (she will eventually!)

Would love to correspond with you and discuss theology. Im a member of the ACNA in the US and pray the daily office every day. Do you have an email?

It's amazing to see this practice is slowly making a comeback, oddly enough initiated by women themselves who see it almost as protection!

Thank you brother and yes I totally agree with all your points.

Not I but the Scriptures are right

@@newkingdommedia9434 Ofcourse

I'm in the Dutch Reformed Church but may be moving at some point to an area that doesn't have any Reformed Churches but has a north american Anglican Church and the same thing is holding me back. The priest said he doesn't agree with women being ordained but he goes along to keep the peace and to be faithful to those above him. I agree with you in that it's a slippery slope.

Have you considered the Reformed Episcopal Church, which is part of ACNA but conservative on these issues.

@@mitchmclean5435 I have looked into it, but unfortunately the closest REC parish is about 6 hours away. Thank you for the suggestion!

@@geoffgerardin Sorry to hear that. There are some other ACNA dioceses that oppose women's ordination such as All Saints and Fort Worth. You could also try the continuum.

WO is similar to the 'high places' during the period of the Israelite and Judean Kings in the Old Testament. Even in the periods where good Kings moved the nation in the right direction and stopped committing various sins, they still didn't remove the high places (1 Kings 15:14; 2 Kings 15:35). So long as those high places were not removed, the total collapse and exile of God's people was inevitable because they had polluted His land. The Church has been polluted by a sinful and invasive species, a "strange fire" (Lev 10:1) and until it has been purged we stand under His judgement. There is still time though. God gave the churches in Revelation time to repent before He removed their lampstands. As someone like yourself who has recognized that WO is sinful, you need to voice that to the church like the Prophets once called Israel to repentance.

Amen!

1) Women are prohibited specifically from the office of public preaching or teaching during the Liturgy. Preaching is not the same as sharing the Gospel, preaching is authoritatively declaring God's word. Romans 16 is either saying Junia is "well known BY the Apostles" or if it does call her an apostle, it's the looser definition of "messenger" we see Paul use in Phil 2:25 of Epaphroditus. 2) I see "valid" as just meaning "lawful." A Eucharist is valid/lawful if the congregation or church body has lawfully appointed someone to perform that task. A woman might be ordained to administer the Eucharist, which makes it technically "lawful" in her church but it is not "lawful" in God's eyes. I do not believe God only recognizes some types of ordination (Episcopal, Presbyterian, etc.) as lawful. 3) This is a fair point. Nevertheless, a man is best suited to outward facing work towards society whereas the woman is more suited for inward facing work towards the family, even if they work in the same house.

@@newkingdommedia9434 Thanks for the answers!

I'm pretty sure it's OK for women to teach other women, young girls and children. Growing up, all my Sunday school teachers were women, all my Vicars were men!

Personally I don't think we can separate them and you make a very good point. Also yeah the Salvation Army is not a church

Thank you for your reply. I paraphrased the argument from the Head Covering Movement KZfaq channel. My church doesn't practice head covering (LCMS). I think it's good Christian's are talking about these issues, because of how they relate to so many problems in the world today.

When I was on a mission trip in India a few years ago they had segregated churches and I really liked it. The men and women bonded together more sitting together rather than in the West where everyone just sits in isolated families.

@@newkingdommedia9434 Ah that's cool. I think it would be better to maintain gender distinctions. But I realise it could not be taught as a universal or binding commandment, but a tradition agreed upon by a local congregation.

It's common practice in churches that have anabaptist heritage, so groups like mennonites and hutterites.

@@byhisstripes2713 Oh, that's interesting.

God bless you sister!

Not sure if it applies, but I heard a lawmaker once comment that law is formulated on the rules, not the exceptions. We don't make laws in society based on individual cases, but on general truths. I think the principles of what this vicar is teaching can be applied to single and childless women, even if the specifics don't apply to a particular situation. One can still be submissive and respectful to the men in authority eg elders etc even if one doesn't live with them. One can still submit and assent to God's creation order even if we don't find our particular lives going in that direction. We can still teach younger women correct God-honouring attitudes. We can support other women around us in their walks with God and their husbands and family lives. I hear where you're coming from and am in the same situation. This is my take on it.

Yes. This is a subject that impacts me greatly.

You're right. But that's not what these blind scholars are doing at all. Their explanations simply do not make *sense* of the texts.

Nothing wrong with that, that's what my wife and I have to do as well.

Yeah and the Anglican Church is one of the fake churches!

Exactly and Christ does not feel put down or belittled by this - it is simply God's order of creation.

​@thoskabrah So they should stop being homosexual and marry a woman to be in accordance with God's moral law ?

A man in unrepentant and grievous sin like that cannot be made a Pastor.

@@newkingdommedia9434 Would you say the same for an unmarried heterosexual man who commits sins of lust, sleeps outside of marriage? Equal gravity?

Repent and believe the Gospel, Christ died for your sins believe his word. Turn from homosexual sin and to Christ. 1 Corinthians 6:9-11 New King James Version 9 Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived. (A)Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor [a]homosexuals, nor [b]sodomites, 10 nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners will inherit the kingdom of God. 11 And such were (B)some of you. (C)But you were washed, but you were [c]sanctified, but you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus and by the Spirit of our God. Brother turn from your sins and accept the Lord Jesus's forgiveness. Your identity should not be in Sin but in Christ. I am saying this for your sake. You need to seek Christ.

I met with an episcopal campus minister, the gospel I am told is that there's probably a God, doing vaguely nice and socially polite things is good, that a man named Jesus Christ may or may not have existed and may or may not be God, believing in Him won't affect it either way, and that I should take communion despite any warning from what is supposedly regarded as God's word. What is this god I was preached? Is He just? Apparently, I'm allowed to think not so and that He's made many immoral mistakes. Is He loving? Apparently I can believe not perfectly so. Is He always true? Apparently it may be otherwise. I find it a mute god, no better than a devil. It is a god with an untrustworthy and cruel gospel and without help for my anxieties. It has no personality and rests on the laurels of perhaps, maybe, kind've being a good thing. If I agree with that definition of good, that is. It's a cheap thing to buy into, what do I have to lose? But then again, what will I have actually gained? I'll take something more than cheap comfort and the blessing of my sins, and I'll find it in a living Christ and an actual Gospel.
