what he literally says does not matter
clearly talking about the pharisees
>what he literally says does not matter
are you serious?
I am so glad to be Protestant
A Catholic once told me that the pope was the representation of God in flesh. I dont know too much about mainstream Christianity because they are too pagan for my tastes
you cant interpret it exactly as it is said. you have to understand the meaning behind it
thats not true about the pope
He literally is talking about pharisees
and their exesses
yes he is
and how they demand too much glory
yep.
and says "don't call anyone rabbi or father" in that context
so it's about spiritual authorities
yes
you can still call your priest father
I want a religion of the bible, not of stupid men. I grew up in a cult where the so called leaders don't know shit about the bible.
no!
Because He just said not to!
You can't call your priest "rabbi" or "father" because those are forbidden
I'll get the context
But
@BGN kys

seriously, take it to <#356277996274843658>
As soon as I saw the religion I was in try to get me to swear allegiance to an earthly organisation, I was like "nope, only God/Jesus"
"Then spake Jesus to the multitude, and to his disciples,
Saying The scribes and the Pharisees sit in Moses' seat:
All therefore whatsoever they bid you observe, that observe and do; but do not ye after their works: for they say, and do not.
For they bind heavy burdens and grievous to be borne, and lay them on men's shoulders; but they themselves will not move them with one of their fingers.
But all their works they do for to be seen of men: they make broad their phylacteries, and enlarge the borders of their garments,
And love the uppermost rooms at feasts, and the chief seats in the synagogues,
And greetings in the markets, and to be called of men, Rabbi, Rabbi.
But be not ye called Rabbi: for one is your Master, even Christ; and all ye are brethren.
And call no man your father upon the earth: for one is your Father, which is in heaven.
Neither be ye called masters: for one is your Master, even Christ.
But he that is greatest among you shall be your servant."
God is fake
here's the context
the church is of God. it was the one church founded by Jesus
