What Jesus means in that verse is that we should not just toss the term around for no reason

CARM is good for using against atheists but when it comes to interdenominational things they fall terribly short

I think this is a good source.

I think that this hatred for fellow Christians divides us further and Christ would be vehemently disgusted at how things are ran today.

We also have Acts 7:2 and Romans 9:10

Interesting.

If you read all of Matthew 23 you'll understand

It would seem to prohibit calling someone teacher or master also

We call people doctor,what does that mean? It's Latin. Means teacher.

Basically this was a rebuke of the Pharisees who wanted places of honor at festivals and feasts, to have the title of teacher and master etc

What is the greek word Jesus uses?

So even if we call someone king, who is the ultimate king?

There isn't because Jesus used Aramaic in daily life and teaching

You know what I meant, the greek translation.

Jesus is King of Kings and Lord of Lords, is he not? But we have earthly kings and lords.

Mister, misses, and mistress came from master

No, it's G-d. Read your ten commandments. G-d said not to worship anybody before him, and worshipping jesus is a mistake.

Go away Jew

@saturnsrings who the hell are you?

Jesus is the Son of God, and Christ is God the Son.

not a jew, this is why the libtards are so strong. christianity can't reconcile ten commandments and worshipping jesus, or anything in the new testament with the old.

Jesus was 'christened'. Jesus was born of a virgin and it would be an honor to worship at his feet.

@saturnsrings are you Christian?

the prophets speak of many who are 'christened'

I just told you I don't worship jesus, and it's a mistake. am I a christian?

@Deleted User So how are we to perceive when Jesus said not to call anyone father?

Okay, go away Mormon

HES A MORMON

LOL

Mormons are worse

Then what are you?

Mormons are even more idolatry

@Iakovos it's like "don't just call anyone that for no reason"

Messianic Jew?

I'm not a jew at all

Hm.

To think of a ruler, a ruler is only such because he has authority given from God. So even though you are the master, the "true master" is God

I'm somebody that took the bible and tried to follow it, nothing more nothing less.

I wish I could explain this one better

To be safe, I think the word of Jesus trumps the word of Paul. Despite Paul being blessed with the Holy Spirit, he was still susceptible to sin.

Jesus used parables and hyperboles often in teaching
