Text1. There is something that has always puzzled me about Catholicism and a lot of other faiths that use The Bible, this is that essentially you all worship Israel's god and by his own admission the 'Jews' are his chosen people which means any of you who are not Jewish are looked upon as Goyim (the nations not of Israel).
Text Again, Lucifer is a Protestant mistake, he's not a fallen angel. As for where Satan the fallen angel stuff came from, I always assumed that it was from Jewish folklore that is not included in the Hebrew Bible, but I guess that I don't know, sorry.
I guess a good question would be should these 2 collections be contained together in one book?
All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the servant of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work. (2 Timothy 3:16-17 NIV)
Judaism generally views Jesus as one of a number of false messiahs who have appeared throughout history.[1] Jesus is viewed as having been the most influential, and consequently the most damaging, of all false messiahs
Judaism has never accepted any of the claimed fulfillments of prophecy that Christianity attributes to Jesus. Judaism also forbids the worship of a person as a form of idolatry, since the central belief of Judaism is the absolute unity and singularity of God
The belief that Jesus is God, the Son of God, or a person of the Trinity, is incompatible with Jewish theology
: Wikipedia
In Judaism, the idea of God as a duality or trinity is heretical — it is even considered by some polytheistic.[8] According to Judaic beliefs, the Torah rules out a trinitarian God in Deuteronomy (6:4): "Hear Israel, the Lord is our God, the Lord is one."
so basically Christians/Catholic church believe the Jewish messiah has been and gone already, while the Jewish themselves don't.
there own religion is wrong according to the Catholic church and Christians in general
thank you for the response on this one i thought i may have killed the thread with that last comment
A long way of saying "keep the questions coming for as long as you're learning.
Ah while it is on my mind what does The Eye of Providence represent within the church ?
Catholic use of the “eye” of providence was used at least as early as 8th century A.D., 900 years before the Freemasons.
The Catholic Church has not used it as a symbol in its churches for a long time. The Church has basically abandoned the symbol when the masons started using it.
The Catholic church has consistently stated that Catholicism and Freemasonry are incompatible and it is forbidden for Catholics to be a member of a masonic lodge.
Like I said, I had no clue.
The words in the last picture are German, but not German as it is today.
