But here are the specifics that the late Pope used from another who was Pope before him...at this time this pope was only a cardinal-bishop:
Catholic Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger:
He makes this confession as to the origin of the chief Trinity text of Matthew 28:19. "The basic form of our (Matthew 28:19 Trinitarian) profession of faith took shape during the course of the second and third centuries in connection with the ceremony of baptism. So far as its place of origin is concerned, the text (Matthew 28:19) came from the city of Rome." The Trinity baptism and text of Matthew 28:19 therefore did not originate from the original Church that started in Jerusalem around AD 33. It was rather as the evidence proves a later invention of Roman Catholicism completely fabricated. Very few know about these historical facts.
But look at the specifics he claims here:
1. He makes this confession as to the origin of the chief Trinity text of Matthew 28:19. "The basic form of our (Matthew 28:19 Trinitarian) profession of faith took shape during the course of the second and third centuries in connection with the ceremony of baptism.
2. The Trinity baptism and text of Matthew 28:19 therefore (((((did not originate from the original Church that started in Jerusalem around AD 33))))).....this is why we read Peter and Paul baptizing in Jesus (Yeshua's NAME only in Book of Acts) = First original church)
3. It was rather as the evidence proves a (((((later invention of Roman Catholicism completely fabricated))))). Very few know about these historical facts.
he claims it was a complete FABRICATION!! in other words, A LIE!!
It is my belief and conviction, that even if
all you have posted, and indeed
all these "August" scholars, labors, not being in vainful pursuits?
Have
exposed, for lack of a better term (being as non-educated in (ahem) the "Higher Schools of Biblical Learning"), or put forth the "un
covering" of a "mystery", of the
Wisdom of God!
Inasmuch, as God
HAS, (whether all this be true, or not), had the
foresight, (knowing the end from the beginning), as well as the
Power, and AUTHORITY, in the
"Carrying ON", if
nothing else? The
NAME of Jesus Christ of Nazareth. Call it "Providence?" Call it "Preservation of the Saints?" (as an
appeasement of sorts to the enemies of God), or whatever other "handle", one may wish to attach to it, in the, or until, "within the council of His GOOD Will", the
Proper TIME, or, that His "Servants Prophecies", could be, or would be fulfilled!
One does not have to endeavor very far at all into History, in the finding out that Christians, from
now, back to the "very
beginnings of the Church", and yea, even Christ Himself, who really had not that many followers of His
TRUER "Teachings", outside of the "free food" and "free healthcare." And, when "tribulation/s"
came? "POOF!!"....."GONE!!"....In LESS then 60 seconds!
In "short?" This "diddy" you posted, if true? And, I have little doubt as to it being so, explains, (a)
WHAT, may, or have may not have, been done! As I also have little doubt there were, or are now, yet "things/changes" hithertofore, not been (how can I say) revealed?
And, if it gives cause for "sheeps, to think?" It can't be all bad, now can it?
But, so oft times, I'll just say this: sometimes? a man's "ego", causes him in the "entertaining of
strange (while not the "judging of") bedfellows!"
Praying you are not one of
them!
