In his examination of how the Council of Trent handled the Canon of Holy Scripture, he points out that they (the Romanists) use the same methodology as the Jews who were trying to refute the Christian canon (the inclusion of the NT books). It's ironic.Daniel Broaddushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07854003085133940781noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19795707.post-31894456108860734382014-01-22T16:37:28.282-05:002014-01-22T16:37:28.282-05:00D.

A. deleted the whole thread on his Facebook page earlier today; he didn't say why; I guess he got tired of both Art and I going back and forth with each other in argumentation. I had saved some of it; but I didn't get the last stuff.

A. s facebook, and I felt I had to respond to my friend.<br /><br />Rod Bennett (we were in the same Baptist Church and friends and he was one of my groomsmen at our wedding in 1988) converted to Roman Catholicism in 1996 and later wrote a book entitled "Four Witnesses" and we debated for 8 years and he told me in 2004 he didn't want to debate anymore. (sometime around 2000 ? or so, he said, "go debate with D. A. - he likes to debate".<br /><br />Basically, Rod's challenges were the reasons I started studying the early church fathers and church history and that is what led me to find you and James White on the issues. <br /><br />I hope to someday publish a formal response to Rod's book, "Four Witnesses" - I have some things already written out, but have not published it yet.<br /><br /> Kenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17824685809003307918noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19795707.post-31819558737388551292014-01-20T11:39:35.917-05:002014-01-20T11:39:35.917-05:00yes.yes.Kenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17824685809003307918noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19795707.post-15557847680033736292014-01-20T11:30:34.829-05:002014-01-20T11:30:34.829-05:00Ken, did I see recently that you were engaging Art...Ken, did I see recently that you were engaging Art Sippo in a Facebook comment box?<br /><br />James Swanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16136781934797867593noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19795707.post-9121565304788201362014-01-14T16:37:56.320-05:002014-01-14T16:37:56.320-05:00Your article showed up in my feed along with this....Your article showed up in my feed along with this.

Unsurprisingly, a few RCs joined in with a few comments. <br /><br />Maybe Paul William should be fair to us and produce a pro-Sedevacantist post so that he could give Evangelicals, Muslims and Sedevacantists a chance to comment about the Post-Vatican II RCC. explorerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05898412174864424361noreply@blogger.com
