I agree. That is a very practical problem with Gnosticism. But it’s not really a theological problem with it. Secret knowledge is real, at least according to even mainstream scripture. Which means that the problem with Catholicism/Orthodoxy, which rejects this fact, is that it’s outright wrong.

I guess it’s a pick your poison scenario: do you prefer to be in an ambiguous position where you have to at least attempt to suss out who is authentically hearing the Spirit’s instructions and who is full of shit, or do you prefer to be just outright wrong?

I never lied, but I did make a mistake, which I corrected. You, on the other hand, have consciously chosen to openly deny reality. It’s unfortunate that you deny Christianity by rejecting the words from the Gospels of Mark, Matthew, and John.

Your pride has brought you to this low position.

Your claim, the basis of disdain: truths are not revealed in private.

Fact: they are.

Your attempt at shifting the goalposts (coping mechanism): “No no, I meant CAPITAL T truths”

In conclusion, truths are hidden. This places the score, so far, at Gnosticism 1, Orthodoxy/Catholicism 0.

Now. This places you in a predicament. You can either:

Admit that you were incorrect on this point (little l, potential for redemption and vindication in the future),

Openly deny reality (big L, the final score is Gnosticism 1 Catholicism 0)

I wouldn’t have been so harsh if you weren’t inclined to disdain (your choice of words) an objectively correct position. But, here we are. And these are your options now.

Mk, so, let’s do a recap: you said you disdain a view that, quite objectively, is correct. You were corrected. Do you still disdain the objectively correct view?

Um sweaty you used the truth with the lower case t 😔

What is the point of hiding the day of revelation from Christ himself?

Good question. Maybe if I knew all of the mysteries I could tell you. I suppose I’ll keep reading and get back to you on that if I find something.

In the meantime, I’ve gotten you to backpedal from truths are never spoken in private, to truths are spoken in private, but it doesn’t matter. I’d say that’s a pretty big W for me. Maybe you should show a little respeck, bucko. :anintellectual:

What’s the point of hiding the mysteries from the multitude if they don’t matter?

>Truths aren't revealed in private.

That... isn't the case, even going by the "Orthodox" "canon." I recommend you update your perspective since you "disdain" a correct view, which is a grave error.

>Well, you would have to be apostate, what with founding a new religion and all.

Exactly. That's why Orthodoxy/Catholicism is apostate.

What I got out of this post is “no u”

Short answer: most of it.

Longer answer: I’m a Gnostic Mormon. This means my own personal beliefs do not align 1:1 with LDS, I just think it’s the most theologically correct and practical church in the US today. The chief objection LDS holds with the Apostle’s creed, which I personally agree with, is a rejection of early Orthodoxy’s claim to authority in the first place. This ecumenism is considered apostate. Look up the Great Apostasy.

I am, yeah.

>I threw it in because I knew I would get a response from Neet, and it worked.

Nigga u trollan

Both allow to blacks to join is the comparison I imagine he’s going to make.

Yeah but aren’t you one of those guys who thinks that the Hebrews were White with the capital W?

Aren’t you one of those White Hebrew Israelites?

The more educated among you will identify it as Mormon phraseology and cast doubt on you. Guilt by association.
