    The post appeared on the serach bar, I don’t see the issue with commenting on it.

    And yeah, the State Religion persecuted Donatists, Waldensians, Baptists, Albigensians because they didn’t want to give up the right to the Bible to the state.

    I don’t think that verse is about hiding people, but hidden practices, aka Occultism

    And the Council of Nicaea wasn’t about picking a canon of Scripture, it was about the deity of Jesus. Where the Catholics were forced to pick which books would come into the Bible happened in the council of Trent until the 1500’s, the Catholics didn’t have a unified canon for most of their history until they were forced to after Luther appeared

    Can you post those verses here instead of links?

      No, go study from somewhere other than the institutions that have a vested interest in keeping you divided within yourself and convinced the Kingdom of Heaven and Salvation are external.

      Here, because you’re lazy and this is important:

      Luke 17:

      20 And when he was demanded of the Pharisees, when the kingdom of God should come, he answered them and said, The kingdom of God cometh not with observation:

      21 Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for, behold, the kingdom of God is within you.

      Matthew 22:

      36 Master, which is the great commandment in the law?

      37 Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.

      38 This is the first and great commandment.

      39 And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.

      40 On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.

        Joh 3:3 KJV

        Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.

        You need to get saved and receive the Holy Spirit to be part of that Kingdom of God. What does one need to go to be saved? To believe ONLY or believe + do good works?
