Interesting when fundies quote scripture it's true and is to be taken literally, but when Catholics quote scripture it shouldn't be taken literally.
You simply can't have it both ways.
And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray God your whole spiritandsoulandbody be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.
there was 3..and still is
here's another verse that shows theres 3
For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soulandspirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.

In Old Testement soul = flesh
New Testement soul = spirit
It looks like even someone rises from the dead nobody would listen
BTW denomination means NOTHING UNLESS they have teachings that are doctrine of demons.
There are a lot of denominations that have doctrines of men but it has nothing to do with salvation, repentance, or sins that will send you to hell.
If a church says
We can drink....well that's in the bible (nothing to do with salvation)
We can't drink....that's contrary to the bible(nothing to do with salvation)
We can't get drunk....that's in the bible (has to do with salvation)
We CAN get drunk..that's contrary(has to do with salvation)
This is why there's a lot of Christians who don't believe Catholics are saved. Catholics have a lot of teachings that are contrary to the bible which have to do with salvation and/or sins that will send you to hell.
Idolatry and witchcraft. They go both hand and hand.
I have many friends who are and were former Catholics who agree that all Catholics bow down to statues of Mary or the Saints.
Of course they are taught to say that they are not Praying or Worshipping, but we all know that's false.
We should only bow down to Jesus Christ, and should ONLY pray to Jesus Christ. Jesus broke the partition wall which now HE is the High Priest, and Jesus intercedes for us.
Even Jesus said how would should PRAY
At that day ye shall ask in my name: and I say not unto you, that I will pray the Father for you.
To pray to saints is a mockery of Jesus power.
It seems Jesus can't handle the prayer requests that comes in so he must have helpers.
Either way the saints are dead, and will rise in the resurrection.

BTW I was wondering to what denomination you belong , would you care to share?

Soul and psyche in the New Testament
In spite of the influences from Greek thought, the New Testament is heavily dependent on the Old Testament understanding of self or person. Though it does employ the Greek word psyche, translated as soul in many English passages where it means self or person, it shows amazingly little effect of Greek philosophical influence. On the contrary, especially in the letters of St. Paul, one can sense that the Hebrew Bible’s understanding is being introduced into a predominantly Greco-Roman world. Psyche in the New Testament is often translated as life, and it means the totality of the self as a living, conscious subject. While the English language employed will use the terms body, soul and spirit (for instance I Thessalonians 5:23), IT DOES NOT IMPLY A TRICHOTOMY(splitting into three parts), but rather expresses the totality of the human personality which nee dto be sanctified by God. It is that totality of the self which is saved for eternal life.

Amen, brother!
You know what the definition of a fundie is, don't you? It's a person who believes in the literal translation of the Bible sometimes.
Well, that's it for me. I might as well be arguing with a pig.

I think the fundamental difference among christians is that some worship scripture, they believe it's some kind of magical book dictated by God.
I do not believe in the Bible but in the one whom it proclaims.
"The Bible is not a document dictated to the writer by God. It is a human document written by the writer(s) who had an encounter with God, and was limited by the time period and culture in which he lived."
and i thought you 3 would at least backup your beliefs with the bible.
oh how i was mistaken.
looks to me that Satan really might be Jesus brother.
Hey it's not in the bible but I think I'll add it there just because it feels good. Hey i know that other scriptures may contradict it...but who cares we're not taking the bible literally.
Believe it or not....Catholicism are considered fundies.
Why dont you ask a Catholic priest if anyone is saved outside of the catholic church?
It seems the posters can't hold a debate and resort to personal opinions and off topic remarks.
I have posted many verses, and the best comment is...
You can't take the bible literal.
Well I guess Jesus isn't real, and neither were the Apostles.
Hey there is no heaven and hell either, and what's the point of praying now?
