With all the talk about Hunter Biden these days, one might get the impression that he is the only child of a politician to benefit from his parents’ position and the last name they inherited. Before Hunter Biden, the son of former Vice President Joseph R. Biden, got his strange but lucrative deal to sit on the board of energy company Burisma Holdings in Ukraine to the tune of $50,000 a month, there was Chelsea Clinton, the only child of former President Bill Clinton and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. She was similarly rewarded with jobs and board positions that had absolutely no relationship with that young woman’s interests, life, education or any perceived expertise. All of this has racked up to what the New York Post reported back in 2015 was an estimated net worth of $15 million for the then-34-year-old. More recently, Barron’s, the finance newspaper, revealed that Chelsea Clinton has now reaped $9 million from a corporate board position. In 2011, while her mother was still secretary of state, she was appointed to IAC/Interactive, an Internet investment company. She receives an annual $50,000 retainer and $250,000 worth of restricted IAC stock units, according to Barron’s. Ironically, and something the Clintons would be loathed to admit, they like most other American families benefitted from President Donald Trump’s leadership and correlating economic renaissance. The Hill reported, “IAC stock has risen 89%, 50% and 36% in 2017, 2018 and 2019, respectively, a far steeper rise in the broader stock market Consequently, Chelsea Clinton reported in December of last year her holdings ballooned to $8.95 million. In 2017, Chelsea Clinton was also named to travel site Expedia’s Board of Directors. Because she’s a … business genius? A travel genius? An investment prodigy? The Hill
Poster Comment: The Clintons are racketeers and murderers. The pile of dead bodies they leave behind them in their unhindered quest for illegal riches should be enough to lock the three of them away for 50 years. Incidentally, Chelsea is absolutely ghastly looking and watching her speak is like a Disney cartoon come to life. Her comments are always vacuously stupid.

#112. To: Vicomte13, A K A Stone (#93)
Excised by the Council of Hippo and confirmed subsequently in the ancient NT canon. By the Roman Catholic church. It was only in 1546 at the Council of Trent that these dodgy books were again added to the Rome's official canon, though never granted equal status by Rome with the books of the original ancient canon.
Uh-huh. Paul, who was the only human converted by Jesus after his ascent to heaven, is considered by Count Vicula to be inferior in authority to Jesus' baby-mama, Mary who the Count claims has converted millions. Notice how the Count never gives Jesus even the slightest credit for converting any of those souls. It's all for the glory of the Queen of Heaven, Mary. Yet scripture never mentions her as having any spiritual authority whatsoever and Jesus merely assigned disciples to help care for her after His own death. Funny how that works.
You have shed light on what Vic posted. He didn't put those books in context like you did. I always enjoy your posts. Well almost always.
Nothing is 'simple' when it comes to religion! You're a big boy and you should know that.
Liberals are like Slinkys. They're good for nothing, but somehow they bring a smile to your face as you shove them down the stairs.
They had a dispute. He appears to have persuaded Peter of something. The text hardly gives a trial transcript.
She always came in the name of her son, and always called people to follow her son, and they did. You calumniate a messenger of God with your nonsense.
It was only in 1546 at the Council of Trent that these dodgy books were again added to the Rome's official canon, though never granted equal status by Rome with the books of the original ancient canon. Utterly false. Go back to school. Those books have been part of the Catholic Canon, East and West, since the first complete Bibles of the 300s. Local synods disagreed about this and that. The Orthodox and the Catholics both have proceeded forth with these books. Jerome protested some of them but he translated them nevertheless, because the Pope was firm on the matter.
Lie all you want. They were affirmed only by the Council of Trent and they were never included in the canon approved by the Council of Hippo. Stuff that in a dead mouse and smoke it. So what happened to your announced plan from two days ago to run away and pout for a while? You didn't carry through on your little threat.
A lot of Gentiles converted when they found out they didn't have to give up their foreskins like a Jew would have. Or follow Jewish dietary laws, etc. Probably those Christians with foreskins numbered in the millions over the centuries. We know what the dispute was. And Paul prevailed over Peter before the Council, very clearly. Which does throw into question how Peter could be the first Roman pontiff if Paul, who had never even met Jesus during his lifetime, could and did beat Peter like a rug, theologically speaking. And Paul was by far the greater missionary as well. Peter seems to have accomplished very little, perhaps the reason why Rome chose to depict him as their purported first pope. Peter himself never wrote epistles that indicated he knew anything about holding such a status or commission of leadership.
You'd worship her as the Queen of Heaven (and the Immaculate Queen of the Universe, as the sedevecantists do) if the Romans had just nailed one of her bloody tampons to a cross. Were it possible, the Mariolatrists would replace Jesus altogether. Certainly, they make little mention of Him at any time. It's all "Mary, Mary, quite contrary (to scripture)" with you lot.
These books (the Apocrypha), though valuable documents, were never in the Hebrew canon of Scripture. The Hebrews excluded the Apocrypha because these books contain errors.
Paul prevailed over Peter because Peter was in error. Peter was causing a division in the church because of his fear of displeasing the Judaizers. Paul rebuked Peter and corrected the whole lot of them...that we are saved by grace not by works of the Law. The conflict was short lived. By Acts 15:7 Peter affirms the gospel message. BTW Peter was never a stinking Pope...there is no such office listed in the Bible.
I think Paul had a very aggressive personality. That trait does come through in his writings and these other descriptions we have of him. He must have had a very powerful and charismatic effect on people. Anyway, that's how I read him from what the bible describes.
Yeah, all the apostles were a pretty rough bunch. Saul before he was Paul participated in stonings, you know, killing people with rocks. Peter, a fisherman, used a sword to hack an ear off a dude. James and John were known locally as the "Sons of Thunder" Even so, God tenderized them...and made them useful.
The Hebrews excluded those books at Jamnia, 90 years into the Christian era. They also insist that Isaiah does not speak of the son of a virgin, but the son of a young woman. If one wishes to hitch one's star to the Jews, in for a penny, in for a pound. Stop eating shrimp and bacon, and cut off the end of your dick.
That's novel. Keep it up, please. Keep heaping derision on Mary.
I want to urge you to keep saying evil things, to get so full of yourself and such a head of steam on you keep right on down that self-righteous road of yours, spewing nonsense and contempt at holy things.
You are suggesting that the Apocrypha was part of the Hebrew canon up until Jamnia, and then tossed out. That isn't the case at all.
Every time you elevate Mary, you diminish Jesus Himself. Can Jesus do anything without his baby-mama? Anything at all? Catholics elevate Mary to the point that she replaces the Father/Son/Spirit entirely in their minds. You know it's true.
The disputed books were not included in the original NT canon for sound reasons. The Maccabees were just a history of a series of recent wars for Jewish independence from Rome. A few others were dubious rehashes of Daniel. And so on. They were considered carefully and rejected as inferior at Hippo. The account of the Maccabees is interesting and sets the stage historically for the appearance of Christ and the rebellion that ended with the destruction of the Temple and Jerusalem in 70AD. But they had no greater spiritual merit than the history written by Josephus a little later after he went Benedict Arnold and threw in with the Roman conquerors. A history book is not a spiritual book. Such was the judgment of the council of Hippo and subsequent ratifications of Hippo's NT canon.
I know that’s completely untrue, pure falsehood produced by the distempered Protestant mind.
You ought to Google the Council of Hippo to see those books you say were rejected in fact confirmed by that council, which was, by the way, a regional synod, not an ecumenical Council. Please do continue to spout falsehood.
The account of the Maccabees... Errors in the Apocrypha...Money as an offering for the sins of the dead: From https://carm.org/catholic/errors-apocrypha Vic can buy you a stairway to heaven TC...but I have a feeling it is gonna cost way more than twelve thousand drachms of silver to save your sin blighted soul ;)
Vic isn't a follower of Christ. He is a follower of the Pope. If Vic always prays in Marys name God don't even hear his prayers. Vic is deceived and trying to deceive with his doctrine of demons. He is to educated to have common sense. In other words brainwashed.
She is dead and you even admitted that you don't even know if she hears your prayers. She is a dead sinner that practiced repentance. Here is another verse that shows you are not to worship sinners. Even Mary mother of Jesus. 27 And it came to pass, as he spake these things, a certain woman of the company lifted up her voice, and said unto him, Blessed is the womb that bare thee, and the paps which thou hast sucked. 28 But he said, Yea rather, blessed are they that hear the word of God, and keep it.
No purgatory fool. It isn't in the Bible and this proves it scripturally. You are scriptureally challenged that is why you never quote it like Jesus did. You just worship some stupid Pope who covers up fore pedophiles. 26 And beside all this, between us and you there is a great gulf fixed: so that they which would pass from hence to you cannot; neither can they pass to us, that would come from thence.
It is false teaching and a lie that Jesus said the Church was to be based on Peter. Do you understand that Count? 24 And there was also a strife among them, which of them should be accounted the greatest. 25 And he said unto them, The kings of the Gentiles exercise lordship over them; and they that exercise authority upon them are called benefactors. 26 But ye shall not be so: but he that is greatest among you, let him be as the younger; and he that is chief, as he that doth serve. 27 For whether is greater, he that sitteth at meat, or he that serveth? is not he that sitteth at meat? but I am among you as he that serveth.
Yes it is simple if you just ignore all the lies taught in Catholic "Church". A saint is a Christian. A saint isn't a saint because some poop stained Pope says so. 1 Corinthians 1:2 King James Version 2 Unto the church of God which is at Corinth, to them that are sanctified in Christ Jesus, called to be saints, with all that in every place call upon the name of Jesus Christ our Lord, both their's and our's:
Don't worship the Pope and don't pray to the fake Mary. 4 Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God. 5 Remember ye not, that, when I was yet with you, I told you these things? 6 And now ye know what withholdeth that he might be revealed in his time. 7 For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way. 8 And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming: 9 Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, 10 And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. 11 And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:
It's not Mary you fools. 5 For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus;
The Catholic Cult changed Gods plan for Bishops too. 1 Timothy 3:2 King James Version 2 A bishop then must be blameless, the husband of one wife, vigilant, sober, of good behaviour, given to hospitality, apt to teach; Since they changed it unmarried faggots are running rampant in the church molesting thousands of kids. Come out of the whore church,
Hey Count. You should actually read the Bible and believe it instead of lying to us here about the word of God. 3 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; 4 And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.
The Catholics lie and disobey God by prohibiting marriage. Why would anyone be so stupid after all these things the fake church Catholics does. 1 Timothy 4:3-4 King James Version 3 Forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from meats, which God hath created to be received with thanksgiving of them which believe and know the truth. 4 For every creature of God is good, and nothing to be refused, if it be received with thanksgiving:
Vic is a good guy, a caring person who would give you his coat and his shirt too. This is a fact. And yet, if he believes all the Catholic nonsense he posts here, then yes, he is deceived. The Catholic religion is a powerful force in the minds of those who are caught up in it. The Catholics can no more free themselves from their beliefs than the Jehovah's Witnesses can. (ever try to win a JW to Christ?) Looking in on Catholic comment sections, you find the Catholics will recognize that the Pope is false...but they turn right around and encourage one another to pray to Mary for deliverance. Heartbreaking.
Those are not errors. Those are words that demonstrate the belief in the efficacity of prayers for the dead. Your later, bogus and quite bloody-handed traditions ripped those pages out of the Bible precisely BECAUSE they conflicted with your 16th-century theories of the way things ought to be. But you're never going to be persuaded by anything, and trying to do so is a fool's errand.
It is in the Bible. Gehenna is purgatory. This is what JEWS of Jesus' day thought Gehenna was - and when he used that word, he was speaking to them, not you with your closed and historically ignorant and malicious Protestant mind: Source: "What is Gehenna: Jewish views of the Afterlife" "In rabbinic texts Gehenna played an important role as a place where unrighteous souls were punished. The rabbis believed that anyone who did not live in accordance with the ways of God and Torah would spend time Gehenna. According to the rabbis some of the transgressions that would merit a visit to Gehenna included idolatry (Taanit 5a), incest (Erubin 19a), adultery (Sotah 4b), pride (Avodah Zarah 18b), anger and losing one's temper (Nedarim 22a). Of course, they also believed that anyone who spoke ill of a rabbinic scholar would merit time in Gehenna (Berakhot 19a)." "In order to avoid a visit to Gehenna the rabbis recommended that people occupy themselves "with good deeds" (Midrash on Proverbs 17:1). "He who has Torah, good deeds, humility and fear of heaven will be saved from punishment in Gehenna," says Pesikta Rabbati 50:1. In this way the concept of Gehenna was used to encourage people to live good, ethical lives and to study Torah. In the case of transgression, the rabbis prescribed teshuvah (repentance) as the remedy. Indeed, the rabbis taught that a person could repent even at the very gates of Gehenna (Erubin 19a)." "For the most part the rabbis did not believe souls would be condemned to eternal punishment. "The punishment of the wicked in Gehenna is twelve months," states Shabbat 33b, while other texts say the time-frame could be anywhere from three to twelve months. Yet there were transgressions that the rabbis felt did merit eternal damnation. These included: heresy, publicly shaming someone, committing adultery with a married woman and rejecting the words of the Torah. However, because the rabbis also believed that one could repent at any time, the belief in eternal damnation was not a predominant one." Gehenna is Purgatory, not eternal Hell.
1 Timothy 3:2 King James Version 2 A bishop then must be blameless, the husband of one wife, vigilant, sober, of good behaviour, given to hospitality, apt to teach; Since they changed it unmarried faggots are running rampant in the church molesting thousands of kids. Come out of the whore church, What Jesus said: "For there are eunuchs who have been so from birth, and there are eunuchs who have been made eunuchs by men, and there are eunuchs who have made themselves eunuchs for the sake of the kingdom of heaven. Let the one who is able to receive this receive it.” The Latin Church decided to take this literally and make celibacy a disciple of the Latin Clergy, and this was generally practiced from the 400s onward.
The Catholics can no more free themselves from their beliefs than the Jehovah's Witnesses can. (ever try to win a JW to Christ?) The Protestant religion is a powerful force in the minds of those who are caught up in it. Protestants can no more free themselves from their beliefs than the Catholics can.
When I married her, my wife was a Jehovah's Witness, as is her entire family. She grew up in that denomination and practiced it for many years. I've attended meetings with her and her family. She attended Mass with me as well. 15 years ago, she converted to Catholicism, was confirmed, and is a more reliable churchgoer than I am. No, I did not "win a JW for Christ". JW's are already very much for Christ. She changed the form of her religion, because of what she saw at the Mass, and what she saw among Catholics. Came to her own decision to do that. The Church won her over, not me. She was with Christ before, she's still with Christ, but now she puts up a Christmas tree and sings along with the carols. Catholicism is a happier religion than Jehovah's Witness-ism, and she prefers to be happy.
Those are not errors. Those are words that demonstrate the belief in the efficacity of prayers for the dead. Here's another example of error in the Apocrypha: Tobit 12:9, "For alms delivereth from death, and the same is that which purgeth away sins, and maketh to find mercy and life everlasting." Alms can "purgeth away sin"? No! Only the blood of Christ can purge away sin. This is why the Apocrypha was excluded from the canon. Do you believe that sins are purged by alms? Can a person buy salvation from God? Can you just give some cash and receive everlasting life? That's precisely what the Catholic Church teaches. Nice little side hustle. Ka-ching! Another soul cleared from purgatory!
JW's deny the deity of Christ...rendering His death on the cross to no avail.

And Paul prevailed over Peter before the Council, very clearly.
After much discussion, Peter got up and addressed them: “Brothers, you know that some time ago God made a choice among you that the Gentiles might hear from my lips the message of the gospel and believe. 8 God, who knows the heart, showed that he accepted them by giving the Holy Spirit to them, just as he did to us. 9 He did not discriminate between us and them, for he purified their hearts by faith. 10 Now then, why do you try to test God by putting on the necks of Gentiles a yoke that neither we nor our ancestors have been able to bear? 11 No! We believe it is through the grace of our Lord Jesus that we are saved, just as they are."
