As for my second question, the Bible no where says that you specifically are a saint. You are in fact, quite egotistic, and rather annoying at this point. 🙄

It is by virtue of our position in Christ (i.e. as believers).
1 Corinthians 1:2
To the church of God which is at Corinth, to those who are sanctified in Christ Jesus, called to be saints, with all who in every place call on the name of Jesus Christ our Lord, both theirs and ours:
You do realize that the New Testament was written to believers don't you? There were believers in Corinth just like there are believers every where else in the world. We are called saints.

For you to call yourself a saint is like me calling myself a rock star. My friends call me a rock star, but is only because I play music. You maybe a saint, in the way that you are a Christian, but you are not a Saint in the sense of the bigger meaning.

BecauseA) You are not a saint, of course, neither am I.
B) The Pope is infallible.
C) A Christian is a believer in Jesus Christ.
I have supported with the Bible that you are incorrect. Every believer is a saint (Read 1 Corinthians 1:2).
Show me where in the Bible it states the word Pope or that he is infallible.
You are just another casualty of Roman Catholic indoctrination and unscriptural teaching.

You are incorrect. You have no Biblical understanding of what the word saint means. The word saint refers to every believer in Jesus Christ. I have shown you from the Bible. There is no bigger meaning for the word saint.

You do not know what I do or do not know. I understood what you were getting at, but it is a delusional game you play. It is no different then I calling myself a rock star, when I am not.
The meaning of words are based upon popularity of use. As time goes by, the meaning of words change. At the time when the bible was written, the word saint had a different meaning then it does now. To misguide people by intentionally using an archaic meaning is a game of delusion. All you are trying to do is cause arguments.
What do you hope to achieve? Do you seek to create an illusion of superiority and to build up an image of high self-worth? Are you striving for recognition and prestige to compensate for the lack of self-confidence?

(You still don't get it.)
The Bible refers to believers as saints (it is not something that I call myself) that is the difference between you calling yourself a rock star--because you are not one. But I am a saint whether I call myself a saint or not because the Bible calls all believers saints. If I call myself a saint then I am speaking truthfully because I can support that statement with Scripture. But if you call yourself a rock star you would be lying because you cannot support that statement.

But you are using an uncommon meaning of the word “saint” and not telling anyone. When they read what you are writing, they think you mean the type of saint that is canonized by the Catholic Church, and that is not what you are talking about. You are being deceitful.

I have stated that the word is in the Bible and I have even quoted the Scripture a few times (where have you been?).
I understand what you have said, but deceit is not how I operate. My point is simply to debunk the unscripturally tenable Roman Catholic doctrine of sainthood. The apostles are not super saints, they are saints just like any other believer in Jesus Christ.

Then you should have said that in the beginning. Most people do not have any reverence for the bible that you do, so to simply say it is in the bible does not have the same effect in them, that it has in you.

I agree with Shakyamunison here:

the word "pope" is never mentioned, but you should be knowledgeable of the "Peter you are a rock and on this rock I build my church" spiel, that's where the office, if you will, of Pope comes from.
Also, Catholics acknowledge Sacred Tradition, which is NOT tradition in the sense of "We've always done something this way, so let's keep doing it this way", but of the other stuff that Jesus taught the Apostles, but that they didn't necessarily write down in their Gospels and books of the Bible.
I read the first paragraph of that site and burst out laughing. Yay for the satanically inspired counterfeit of Christianity that is God's one true holy Church. 🙄

I presumed that you understood what I was talking about (did I give you too much credit?).
