151: They are digging up Bible stories! Start Page
... Theological bias has played a devastatingly negative role in entrenching errors in all Bible maps. For example, the Roman Catholic and Orthodox church both accept Constantine's mother's choice of Mt. Sinai in 325 AD in the modern Sinai Peninsula at Mt. Musa beside St. Catherine's Monastery. Both these churches take decisions of Ecumenical Councils and church tradition over what the Bible says. Since Queen Helena saw Mt. Musa in a vision to be Mt. Sinai that settles it. Since Constantine proclaimed it Mt. Sinai in 325 AD, the Roman Catholic church will never look elsewhere. Since the Orthodox church built St. Catherine's Monastery in 550 AD at the foot of Mt. Sinai, they won't even discuss the possibility of another location. Although we have escaped the dark ages of science, we are still held in the shackles of the dark ages of Bible geography. While some Catholic and Orthodox scholars may even state Mt. Musa is not Mt. Sinai, there is absolutely no chance that the Pope or the ... ...

152: Did the New Testament Church have a world headquarters?
... Church buildings are owned by the local church. (Congregational, Baptist, Pentecostal, Brethren) C. Episcopal: Episcopal is a transliteration of the Greek word for "bishop or overseer". All local churches are ruled from a central point. The Roman Catholic church with its Pope in Rome and the Jehovah's Witnesses with their "Governing body" in New York city are excellent examples. Local churches have no say on theology and local leaders are appointed by someone outside each local church. Church buildings are owned by the central world headquarters. (Roman Catholic, Orthodox, Jehovah's Witness, Episcopalian, Anglican, Methodist) D. Presbyterian: Presbyterian is a transliteration of the Greek word for "elder or presbyter". The "eldership" or "presbytery" are a group of men chosen from within the congregation to rule the congregation in all matters. There are different types of Presbyterian governments in denominations. Some have a three tier organization where the elders are over the ... ...

153: Is Scientology A Religion? YES! Alan Black
... In his most recent overview, entitled The World's Religions: Old Traditions and Modern Transformations (1989), he again used these six dimensions and added a seventh. These dimensions are: II.I. THE PRACTICAL AND RITUAL DIMENSION Religions typically have particular practices in which people engage. The form of these practices varies greatly and may include such activities as worship, preaching, prayer, meditation, confession, sacrifice, offerings, rites of passage and other sacred ceremonies. Sometimes these practices are quite elaborate and publicly visible, as in the eucharistic liturgy of the Eastern Orthodox Church or the sacred ceremonies of Australian aboriginal religions. Sometimes they are much less elaborate and less publicly visible, as in the forms of meditation practised in Buddhism or the private prayer which is part of various religious traditions. In using the word "ritual" to describe such activities one does not necessarily imply that there is a precisely specified ... ...

Although it is found on every Bible map today this location is almost universally rejected by informed archeologists and Bible students alike. a. Helena chose Mt. Musa at St. Catherine's monastery based upon a vision she saw in a dream. b. Helena chose many sites in the Bible lands, most of which we know today were wrong. 2. Unfortunately, the Roman Catholic and Orthodox churches have decreed that Mt. Sinai is located at St. Catherine's monastery which closes the door and the mind to considering alternatives because then their "divine illumination" is proven false.

159: The False doctrine of Roman Catholic papal infallibility
... Roman Catholic and Orthodox churches contradict each other so bad, they condemn each other and are not "in communion" with each other. The key is to realize that both of these denominations base their teachings on the oral tradition of the apostles, yet the cannot agree! We are confused over the contradictory doctrine of the Catholics and Orthodox church! Whose oral tradition on the liturgy of the Eucharist and the date of Easter is correct?

That truth is the gospel message contained in scripture. If the "church" is the source of truth, as both Roman Catholic and Orthodox churches claim, again ... ...

The embarrassing edge of this age-long problem is commonly thought to be turned by the plea that, despite the implications of some of their language, the Fathers never intended to identify Jesus with God outright.

The Monros' tendencies to stigmatize religious enthusiasts as crazy, and their medical treatment of Methodist madmen, was to bring down opprobrium on their heads from the movement's leaders, John Wesley and George Whitefield.

... To speak of the pre-existence of the Son is to say that God did not begin to redeem men when Jesus came into the world, but that throughout all ages the redeeming power and the sacrificial work of God has been at work. To speak of the pre-existence of the Son means that the love which was demonstrated on Calvary is an eternal movement of the heart of God to men (The Mind of Paul, p. 59). I do not think William Barclay was a Christian. In his autobiography he clearly states that he was not a Trinitarian. He did not believe that Jesus is God. He denied the doctrine of the Vicarious Atonement. He also denied the Virgin Birth of Christ, and his view of the Holy Spirit fits no discernible orthodox definition in the history of the Christian Church.

The nineteenth century lrvingites of London were marked by unbiblical claims of revelations and by "tongues-speak." For over 1800 years the gift of tongues, along with the other miracle gifts, was unknown in the life and doctrine of orthodox Christianity. Then, around the turn of the twentieth century, tongues became a major emphasis within the holiness movement, a large section of which developed into modern Pentecostalism.

177: Trinity proof texts: Revelation 22:3
... We are merely proving that if the singular "serve Him" rather than "serve them" refers to only one, it would be the last one mentioned... the Son. This is exactly what happens in Rev 20:6. The Jehovah's Witnesses completely ignore this fact and claim that Rev 22:3 excludes Christ.

Jehovah's Witnesses share theology with Catholics: Click to View Mariolatry In a bizarre twist, Greek Orthodox, Roman Catholics and Jehovah's Witnesses actually share the same theological argument in allowing worship of creatures. "Mariolatry" is derived from two words: "Mariam" [Mary], and latria or latreuo [divine worship].

While Jehovah's Witnesses say Jesus, the creature, can be worshipped, but not with the ... ...

... The case is examined here (in chapter 3) as part of the tangled set of relationships between religion and insanity in this period: in particular, between those who appeared to suffer from this especially problematic admixture, and the doctors, divines, and laymen who, alternately, ministered to and vilified them. The Monros' tendencies to stigmatize religious enthusiasts as crazy, and their medical treatment of Methodist madmen, was to bring down opprobrium on their heads from the movement's leaders, John Wesley and George Whitefield. (Sympathy for popular religious enthusiasm was in rather short supply among the ultra-orthodox "Bethlemeical" physicians, with their family history of high Anglican, Tory, and Jacobite sympathies.)"

179: The Catholic Church did not Give the world The Bible!
... Some of the most valuable Greek Bibles and Versions have been handed down to us from non-Roman Catholic sources. A notable example of this is the Codex Sinaiticus which was found in the monastery of St. Catherine (of the Greek Orthodox Church) at Mount Sinai in 1844 and is now in the British Museum. It contains all of the books of the New Testament and all but small portions of the Old Testament. Scholars are certain that this manuscript was made early in the fourth century, not later than 350 A.D. This manuscript found by a German scholar named, Tishendorf, who was a Protestant, and this manuscript which is the most complete of all has never been in the hands of the Roman Catholic Church. Another valuable manuscript that has never been possessed by the Roman Catholic Church is the Codex Alexandrianus. It, too, is now on exhibit in the manuscript room of the British Museum in London. It was a gift from the Patriarch of Constantinople (of the Greek Orthodox Church) to Charles I in 1628. ... ...

In lieu of this psychiatric perspective and vocabulary, I propose to view obsessional thoughts as instances of self-conversations specifically, as inner dialogues whose character and contents the speaker-listener is unable or unwilling to change.

The essential difference between these two sets of behaviors lies not in the minds or heads of the subject, but in the interpretation he and society place on them. Simply put, the religious ritualist performs acts of thinking and doing that he and his many coreligionists alike regard as rational and desirable, indeed holy; whereas the obsessional ... ...

No Protestant church used instruments before the 1700's.

It is important to keep several things in mind as one reads these comparisons: First, these are not Greber's opinions or beliefs, but those of the spirits with whom Greber communicated. The Society accurately depicts the Bible's condemnation of such communication with spirits as contact with demons. Secondly, keep in mind that Greber was originally a Roman Catholic priest, and therefore held beliefs in harmony with those taught by all the major orthodox denominations of Christendom--beliefs which the Watchtower Society condemns as originating with Satan. It is worth considering why the demons with whom Greber communicated would want to "enlighten" him by teaching him doctrines which the "faithful and wise servant" of the Watchtower Society is now distributing as "meat in due season", i.e., Biblical truths taught by the anointed leaders of the Society.

Further, there are no ancient complete copies of the Koran dating before 750 AD. And there are some significant errors in the text of the Koran.

While Catholics and Orthodox Christians pray to Mary, they never said she was God or a member of the trinity. The scientific blunders in the Quran regarding embryology are laughable being borrowed directly from incorrect medical knowledge of Muhammad's day.
