Paul's "persecution" of the early Christians?

[Godscreated]

Titus 1: 13-14 (ESV) ...Therefore rebuke them sharply, that they may be sound in the faith, 14 not devoting themselves to Jewish myths and the commands of people who turn away from the truth.
This is for Christians who are listening to wrong teaching. When you use the related verse it makes sense. 

This one is for you.
Titus 1:15 (ESV) ..... but to the defiled and unbelieving, nothing is pure; but both their minds and consciences are defiled.

However you got that out of those verses just befuddles me, your understanding of scripture is completely deplorable and useless.

GC,

You are just too damn funny!!

Please get a clue before discussing the Bible because your ignorance makes you look like you're an imbecile.

How could you possibly come to such a conclusion when you know nothing about the scriptures, you have been shown to be completely inept at understanding the scriptures, and after this post I believe I'll be finished with you in this thread because it's gotten to nothing more than name calling.

The Apocrypha was an integral part of the Bible until the 1880s when two Englishmen, Westcott and Hort, decided to dump it.  So, as routinely happens, their malcontent group wrote a new Bible version and did not include the Apocrypha books.  Your precious Protestant Bible is essentially a fake Bible because it omits a significant portion of the original Bible that had been used by everyone since its inception in the 690s.

The Apocrypha was put into the Catholic Bible around the 1500's because of the protestant reformation, those books were not in the 690s Bible. Those books are full of errors and were put into the Catholic Bible to support their wrong practices, practices that are found only in the Catholic Church and practices that are not supported by any other part of the Bible. Are you saying the catholic Church is everyone, doesn't surprise me seeing you believe the Apocrypha was part of the original Bible. Even the Jews do not accept the Apocrypha as Holy text. You just keep digging that hole of yours deeper and deeper, soon you want be able to get out.  

The Protestant Bible that you like has only been in existence for about 132 years.

I like several different translations and I know you have quoted out of the more modern translations before, so why if you consider them bad. Then you would consider anything about God bad and thus your bias shows off as ignorance .... no it is ignorance. The modern translations I like still come from the Hebrew and Greek writings and use the Latin and King James also to come to a better translation, one more suitable for today's language. I've explained this to you before and you just ignored it and I'm tired of going around in circles with you, you look only to stir things up into an argument that leads nowhere and I'm ending this one tonight. Waste your time writing a response I don't care because I will not read it. If you cared to learn that might be different, but you are just wanting to waste time.
 

Now there's a couple of ways you can discover that fact for yourself.  The first is to read news articles and the other way is to read old Bibles written before the 1880s and the Bible history.

I can give you other links if you want.

You may not do it but will you please stop including every damn post in your replies?  It's a pain in the ass to respond to your rambling posts that include a lot of junk.  Part of the problem is the way the forum software works but sometimes it's a good idea to wait until another poster comments before adding on to your first comment. 

You think I haven't learned about the Bible's history, believe what you like, I've shown you where you make numerous mistakes. As for the way I post you are no different and I do not have all day to wait on people from around the world. I got on the forum just a little while ago and had 22 alerts and nearly half are from you.
