Sorry Randy did not know you were a brother.
Next time if you take issue with anything I say, then take it to me first/Pm me. (or not I have no issue hashing it out in public, I just think it is better to try and follow what the bible says about Christian conflict rather than brother against brother in the heathen arena)
(for you stims)
That said, just because I don't believe Peter was the first pope, nor do I believe the current one has the same apostolic authority or power Peter did, makes you any more or less saved than you are.
Why? Because as the above post points out, I believe 'we' (NONE OF US NOT EVEN PETER) gets to say who is and who is not a member of the church. I believe Jesus is not a respector of the boundries we put on our religions. I also believe that brother "A" can live a perfect Christian life, and brother "B" can live an identical one and brother 'A' goes to Heaven while brother 'b' goes to Hell. Why? Because it is not about what we do persay. It's about why we do it. Meaning our religions don't save any of us. our relationship with Jesus Christ does. Remember He told us NO Man comes unto the Father but by Him.. Not 'no man comes unto the father but by this religion or that one..' That mean it is Jesus who will decide who is and is not in the church and not us or our father's empty traditions.
