352: The false doctrine of Roman Catholic apostolic succession!
... We must abide in the doctrine of Christ or we don't have God (2 John 9). We must not take from, add to, or pervert the gospel of Christ because doing so causes the curse of God to come upon us (Rev. 22:18-19; Gal. 1:6-9). Thus, if Catholics are to sustain their doctrine that the authority of the apostles was transmitted to authorized successors, they must produce the passages which openly and plainly reveal it. This they have not done. Please notice the following from a Catholic source: "...The Christian faith has been taught, and was intended by its Divine founder to be taught, in all ages on the same plan that was adopted in the beginning; that ... The words of Christ quoted by the above Catholic writers were addressed the apostles only. They were not addressed to Catholic bishops and priests and it is sinful and wrong to apply the passage to them. This is done repeatedly in the Catholic Church as they try to prove their man made doctrine of successors. It was done by the above ... ...

353: Did you choose your church this way???
will find the same pattern for becoming a Christian. Faith in Christ as the divine son of God, repentance from past sins, making known, or confessing, faith in Christ before men, and baptism for remission of sins. Would it not be wonderful if the millions of Americans who will choose a church in the next fifteen years would choose a church in this ancient, God-given way of becoming a Christian? There is no way but God's way to be saved (Matthew 7:21). Would it not be wonderful also if these millions would worship in the same simple way that the early Christians did? It was a genuine way that the early Christians were taught to worship: simple, yet profound. There were ... The idea of going back and following the pattern of becoming a Christian, of worshipping and of living in the approved apostolic manner is solid ground upon which all of us can and should stand.

356: Werner, Martin: The Formation of Christian Dogma
... But now many Arians compromised to the effect that the Logos-Son was indeed not true God (but a high angelic-being), but that he was called God, this honour having been graciously bestowed upon him. With this God 'in the second place' the Arians would surely have raised no stir and certainly no 'Arian' controversy in the time of Justin, who, being heir to the Angel-Christology, taught practically the same thing.

358: The Signs and Causes of Melancholy, Richard Baxter, 1670 AD
He also identifies cognitive dissonance (bad conscience) as a trigger of insanity: "great Cause is the Guilt of some great and wilful Sin, when Conscience is convinced, and yet the Soul is not converted". His cure of insanity was to repent: "repent, to love God and your Neighbour, to live soberly, righteously and godly, to pray at all; here you must strive, and not excuse it by any Backwardness; for it is that which must needs be done, or you are lost". Although he believed typical Hypocrites junk medicine, he attributed depression and mental illness to freewill choices as the primary cause, which in turn cause the blood to become melancholy. So the real problem lay in fixing the mind, not the body! Repentance, he believed, ...

379: Reglan, Lord: The Hero
... All through his rise to power, there were conflicts. Early on, he claimed to have had a miraculous journey on a winged horse that took him to Jerusalem. From there, he ascended into heaven and learned from God how to worship the five prayers a day came with this revelation. Many of his followers could not accept this tale, so fell away. :-) Pages 145-146 "The Life of Muhammad," by Muhammad ... It is utterly deceptive, unscholarly and dishonest for Muslims to tell you that Lord Reglan "hero Myth test" gives Christianity a score of 15/22, when the Islamic religion scores AT LEAST 14/22 in the same test! (maybe more) Moses scores 14/22, the same as Muhammad. Similarities do not mean something is wrong. Lord Reglan is not a Christian and does not speak for Christians. Lord Reglan's material was not intended to decide which hero is true or mythical, just that all hero stories have these in common. We do not feel that Lord Reglan's "hero Myth test" is of any help in determining if either ... ...

383: William Barclay: Many Witnesses, One Lord
... To speak of the pre-existence of the Son means that the love which was demonstrated on Calvary is an eternal movement of the heart of God to men (The Mind of Paul, p. 59). I do not think William Barclay was a Christian. In his autobiography he clearly states that he was not a Trinitarian. He did not believe that Jesus is God. He denied the doctrine of the Vicarious Atonement. He also denied the Virgin Birth of Christ, and his view of the Holy Spirit fits no discernible orthodox definition in the history of the Christian Church. (Harold Lindsell) Needless to say, Barclay did not believe in the inerrancy of the Scriptures. Had he done so he would have believed the above-mentioned doctrines because they are taught in Scripture. Thus, I feel that William Barclay was not a believer because by no reasonable understanding of the Bible could he be called one. It is the Bible which makes it impossible to claim this man as a fellow believer without emptying Christianity of its basic content (The ... ...

The recognition of Sunday (the day of Phoebus and Mithras as well as the Lord's Day) by the emperor Constantine as a legal holiday, along with the influence of Manicheism, which identified the Son of God with the physical sun, may have led Christians of the fourth century to feel the appropriateness of making the birthday of the Son of God coincide with that of the physical sun.

The human side of Christ knows how we feel. He had the same feelings, the same sorrows, the same fears, and He experienced pain just like we do. He fully knows what it is to live a human life. On the Day of Judgment, no one will be able to point a finger at Christ and say, "You just don't know what it is to live as a human." Yes He does.
