Quote from: Mark 79 12/10/2024, 2:46:59 PM
Christ's fulfillment of the Law was the replacement of the Law with a New Law unlike the Old Law.

The Dolorous Passion of Our Lord Jesus Christ, Blessed Anne Catherine Emmerich, Roman Catholic Imprimatur 1914.

154

Some said that he had eaten the Paschal Iamb on the previous day, which was contrary to the law, and that the year before he had made different alterations in the manner of celebrating this ceremony. But the witnesses contradicted one another to such a degree that Caiphas and his adherents found, to their very great annoyance and anger, that not one accusation could be really proved. Nicodemus and Joseph of Arimathea were called up, and being commanded to say how it happened that they had allowed him to eat the Pasch on the wrong day in a room which belonged to them, they proved from ancient docuмents that from time immemorial the Galileans had been allowed to eat the Pasch a day earlier than the rest of the Jєωs.

They added that every other part of the ceremony had been performed according to the directions given in the law, and that persons belonging to the Temple were present at the supper. This quite puzzled the witnesses, and Nicodemus increased the rage of the enemies of Jesus by painting out the passages in the archives which proved the right of the Galileans, and gave the reason for which this privilege was granted. The reason was this: the sacrifices would not have been finished by the Sabbath if the immense multitudes who congregated together for that purpose had all been obliged to perform the ceremony on the same day; and although the Galileans had not always profited by this right, yet its existence was incontestably proved by Nicodemus; and the anger of the Pharisees was heightened by his remarking that the members of the Council had cause to be greatly offended at the gross contradictions in the statements of the witnesses, and that the extraordinary and hurried manner in which the whole affair had been conducted showed that malice and envy were the sole motives which induced the accusers, and made them bring the case forward at a moment when all were busied in the preparations for the most solemn feast of the year.

They looked at Nicodemus furiously, and could not reply, but continued to question the witnesses in a still more precipitate and imprudent manner. Two witnesses at last came forward, who said, ‘This man said, "I will destroy this Temple made with hands, and within three days I will build another not made with hands."’  However, even these witnesses did not agree in their statements, for one said that the accused wished to build a new Temple, and that he had eaten the Pasch in an unusual place, because he desired the destruction of the ancient Temple; but the other said, ‘Not so: the edifice where he ate the Pasch was built by human hands, therefore he could not have referred to that.’

It replaced nothing. This is exactly what the whole LGBT propaganda and others falsely use so that they can jettison the 10 commandments, the two greatest commandments do not void the 10 commandments, they fulfill them, the 10 commandments are not only just as valid but are raised to a higher level and fulfilled, if you break the 10 commandments and claim to be following the two greatest commandments then you're a liar.

There is that Scripture verse which says exactly this but I forget where exactly it was, hopefully someone can help me out here, where I think it's St Paul in Romans saying how this is why the two greatest commandments are the answer to every one of the 10 commandments because you will not do those things if you have the two greatest commandments.

Note carefully from the mouth of God Himself (!!!): “On these two commandments dependeth the whole law and the prophets,” no longer dependent upon Moses, but upon Jesus Christ and His two greatest commandments!

I suspected the opposite and for that I apologize too. I don't know who is on a crusade to give me all the thumbs down, not that I am superficial or care at all about that kind of thing (I hardly ever use it myself, I don't even use it for posts I dislike), but I do think I'm being setup a bit there, it'd be interesting to see whose doing it IMO, just so I'm aware when responding to various posters, I dislike the whole anonymous attack aspect of it. Thank you and God Bless.

The hallmarks of a sinister agenda is one that intentionally exaggerates and omits thus misleading people, especially to condemn a whole bunch of people they know nothing about with a broad brush. In terms of the influence Jєωs have in the world, that's like assessing the influence the Catholic Church has, the Orthodox Church, Protestants, Hindu, Islam, Fɾҽҽmαsσɳɾყ, Atheism, Communism and on and on... such a thing is impossible to do fully but there is always a target group that people like Mark 79 and yourself focus on to blame literally anything and everything on, as if nothing else exists.

As to what they aim to achieve, it's very simply... enmity and conflict, it's the exact same intellectually inferior and incredibly toxic mindset of the proud atheists who claim all problems can be blamed on religion and if we just get rid of religion there would be utopia... total fools... this keeps any Christian from hearing what any Jєω might say and vice versa... perfect to keep both the Jєωs and Christians in ignorance, for the Old Testament and New Testament is not only the bridge to heal a very fractured Christianity, but it's also a bridge for the Jєωs to further understand, who also will never make such connections with Protestantism and a massively fractured Christendom.

In fact, I learned about the Michaelangelo Sculpture of Moses from a Jєω, and he was right, not in the criticism he was making but about Moses being 'horned' he absolutely was right, for it means ray of light, which is something some Christians have missed and allows one to unlock the huge amount of typology between the shining face of Moses and the transfiguration of Christ... without this I would not have made that important connection as many others have failed to do so, then you've got Aaron and St Peter and so much more I am still learning myself.

With Mark 79, simply replace 'Catholic' (and I use that term loosely) with 'Militant Atheist' and replace 'Jєω' with 'Religion' and bam, he is a mirror image! A total arrogant fool, clearly baiting and poking so that I say something he can use.

I'm a Catholic! One Holy Catholic and Apostolic Church... It becomes 'Roman' to clarify from others, then it becomes 'Traditional' to clarify from others, then it's 'Benevecantist' to clarify from others, then it's 'Benevecantist/Traditionalist' to clarify that I don't agree with what has happened post Vatican II although there is still much to research there and on and on it goes, for all the talk of Protestantism and a million denominations... look in the mirror.

Then you want to press me on Saints, well what about Boniface VIII who clearly usurped St Pope Celestine V? Then you've got so called "St" Louis IX and that quote some people love of him about the death penalty for blasphemy... imagine if every faction of Catholicism followed that, endless wars even within before even touching anyone without... even Christ corrected the disciples when they suggested to call down fire from heaven, neither did He strike down the Pharisee's who condemned Him... so already something is up, then I later discover that he was canonized by none other than the usurper and antipope Boniface VIII lol of course.

Nobody will touch the Cadaver Synod either. So people in glass houses shouldn't be so eager to throw stones.

As for the Papacy, I think it's possible that Pope John Paul II could be a Saint, but of course it was by the Antipope Bergoglio, so that is null and void, regardless of what I think... and there are some significant scandals with Pope John Paul II such as that Assisi meeting and others, I don't know the pressures these people were under and all that occurred behind the scenes, at the end of the day, I believe in the successor to St Peter, if they are a valid successor to St Peter then they are my Holy Father and I make the best of it and pray for them, if the Papacy ended with Vatican II then how do you explain the Avignon Papacy and how that was corrected? Furthermore, you cannot lose the Papacy through heresy (who judges that?), either the gates of hell have prevailed or they were not validly elected Pope, there is no alternative. 

Anyway, there is so very much more, of course impossible to address all at once. This is why trying to understand others and not constantly throwing stones is important. I react the same way to Militant Atheists of which Mark 79 mimics exactly, just replace 'Jєω' with 'Religion' and it's identical... it's arrogant and it's false.

Just like with the medical field too... Lord save me from the experts!
