I can see why currently
But yeah nah
Not historically
Not the office of the Pope historically
The office of the Pope since the high Middle-ages
Not even then tbh
Like Vatican II onwards
We cite popes in our confessions on many occasions. In fact, in the book "On the Power and Primacy of the Pope" (the book in our confessions) we cite Pope Gregory repeatedly
More on the Antichrist though
The Greek reads: ἀντιχρίστου
Are jews the chosen people?
So what we see here is that we only see the phrase "the Antichrist" in the 1 John passages
But if you actually go read both passages, they both say that antichrists have already come.
The 4:3 passage actually says rather that something is of "the spirit of the antiChrist which you have heard is coming and is already in the world"
@JoeyJoestar1337 the jews stopped being the chosen people as soon as they crucified Jesus and that’s when Christians became Gods people
Yeah, Mac is correct
Book of Job is quite inspiring
Some Pre-millennials will argue some Jews are still chosen, but this idea is not supported in Patristic literature
Did Jesus say? Or is it inferred?
Jesus makes it clear in Revelation
It's a matter of interpretting the text in context of the Bible
Should we condemn Israel?
Wait that the Jews are evil?
Yes
Also there are no true Jews now really
Revelation will sometimes refer to Israel, but this means the church, which is the new Israel
Today’s jews aren’t the same ones as before
^
Exactly
Revelation refers to they who call themselves Jews but lie
That is Israel
^^^
Christians and “jews” sprouted from the same tree but are two different branches
The 12 tribes are barely traceable now I believe
No jews allowed
Lol
only like 2 are left
God makes it clear what is the future of the barren vine
rest are breeded out or ded
