Some people agreed, some did not. That's how it goes with people who write.
You certainly could write something and call it what you want. The question is whether or not apostles that walked and talked with Jesus would agree that your words are God-breathed. Paul had the endorsement of the other apostles.

She has a lot of followers on her YouTube channel.
Match this one against the multiple tens of thousands that have left the R.C. church in recent years. My hometown had three churches with about eleven masses altogether on Sunday. They are down to two churches with four thinly attended masses, and one is a token ethnic church with one mass on Sunday and that's it. Churches in "Catholic" Ireland are dying...and on and on it goes.

The R.C. is in a major crisis, and this woman's conversion is as nothing against that.

Married a woman and raised 2 children. Never hurt anyone and always felt terrible and repented if he ever did anything wrong. But Nimbyah doesn’t know Christ. He may have heard the name and a brief story about Him from rare visitors to his village.

Nimbyah dies.

Are you telling me that Nimbyah is spending an eternity in the fires of hell?

My God wouldn’t do that.
according to the conquering nations, the hypothetical nimbyah and his entire family culture was vilified and Lied about before being slaughtered for not slaving in the fields to feed the wealthy trade barons and their self imposing royal families.

they can try and paint history however they like.

The All Mighty knows, and so the judge of the quick and the dead is not something i would withhold from an entire continent that has now since dissolved into Waring factions due to the RCC having withheld from giving the people Sound Teaching to worship in Spirit and Truth.

So far, none of the apostles have commented on anything I've ever written one way or the other. Probably because they are dead.

But seriously, folks, they were still people, and I'm pretty sure Peter didn't read, review and comment on every letter Paul sent. I doubt Peter could read in the first place. They did endorse Paul as a genuine follower of Christ, which was important given that he was out to kill them a few years earlier. Many who knew of Saul of Tarsus would not have trusted him.

It's just another instance of where the claimed inerrancy by teasing out a verse or two from the Bible is taken as a hill to die on.

It seems to make sense to you. It does not to me.

One of the most beautiful aspects i love about visiting my Coc friends.
They Sing so well.
And the music hymnals are written wonderfully, which is an Inspiration that can only come from One place.

They are a Blessed congregation.

Aren't you Catholic as well?

The Facts of Israelite God worship history-- The teachings of Jesus point to the JW teachers.
The religion that came out of Rome was not the religion Jesus began many years before( Acts24:5, 1Cor 1:10)-- They were basically all killed because the world hates the truth Jesus brought. Went underground at best after. The religion that came out of Rome brought in statues, icons, graven images into their churches and homes--many errors in dogma, many errors in translations. No protestant religion ever fixed most of the wrongs.

They murdered-Jesus, apostles( not John) and the followers back then for that Radically different theology. BecAuse the world hates truth, It exposes them.

If you saw the segregation in the Baptist bible belt to this day---comes from fear and hate. Jesus taught--Love, peace, unity.
The world has been filled with fear leading them like sheep to this disaster for them-Rev 16--Every kingdom on earth. The image of the beast looks very good to the mortal heart--they surely wouldn't fall for it if it looked bad to their heart.
