Just say you can't interpret the verse to mean something it doesn't. atleast we can have a meaningful discussion.

all you have done so far is brag about your schlarship, nothing more

What compromises a priesthood??? Bikers? Scuba Divers? Leprechauns farting in a tree?

A priesthood is made up of PRIESTS. Call me Captain Obvious for stating what is plainly visible.

of course it is made up of priests, but the authority still has to be there.

not all who claim to be chrisitans have the proper authority.

If a son shall ask bread of any of you that is a father, will he give him a stone? or if he ask a fish, will he for a fish give him a serpent? Or if he shall ask an egg, will he offer him a scorpion? If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children: how much more shall your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to them that ask him?"

Honestly, I can't see how anyone could possibly believe otherwise, but I've run into plenty of people who do, so what do I know?
that's lovely, Katz. i'd agree. if God is the Way, the Truth, and the Life, surely He can and will guide those who seek Him.

i've been having some interesting experiences lately, and i do feel that God is calling me. seek and you will find- God's call is irresistible.

Did you type this with a STRAIGHT face??? Where on earth is your scriptural reference for this??? Acts 2:38 says ALL who are baptized in his name will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. Amen!

I'm pretty sure MH's face was straight when he typed that, Pete. Having the gift of the Holy Spirit is not the same thing to many Christians as holding the same authority Jesus conferred upon His Apostles. Actually, the gift of the Holy Ghost/Spirit is not even received at baptism but by the laying on of hands. I know this is one area in which you and I disgree, and I'm not sure I'm up to arm-wrestling you tonight. Love ya anyway.
