[QUOTE="mugsy, post: 1680332, member: 18914"] The quote illustrates that men without the guidance of the Holy Spirit can make very serious errors - luckily the Spirit was promised to the Church so that the Gates of Hell would not prevail (ooh! a good paraphrase riposte to a quote thrust). That quote is usually used (not saying you did) to justify ignoring whatever one chooses to that one didn't personally decide comes from Scripture. What does whether it is in the New Testament explicitly have to do with it? The New Testament (and the old) is itself a product of Tradition guided by the Holy Spirit - there is no editor's guide saying what should or shouldn't be included nor are many things most Christians believe more than implied. Of course, this is religion so you may choose to believe none of it or some of it as suits you. I will not start the quote/mis-quote war with you - it is rarely productive as nearly every thing in Scripture can taken out of context by both me and you. Have a Merry Christmas and Blessed New Year - whatever you believe or don't believe. [/QUOTE]
