They have successors: all Christians since their time. Two different issues, as I noted previously. Acts 1 is spatial, Matthew 28 is temporal.

The Bible says nothing of "low priests". Why do you add to Scripture with your speculations? "Act in the person of Christ"? Whatever is that supposed to mean?

That's a (false) "principle" of biblical interpretation held by people without proper training.

VARob said it well. You are confused as to the identity of Christ’s Church.

You are? That’s shameful.

“Not correct” by whose standard?

It’s idiomatic. The translators used an English idiom that roughly captured the tone of the original.

Your spelling is egregious. Given that you are new here and know nothing about me and nothing about the history of my interactions on this subject, I will overlook your inappropriate judgmental comments.

Mary isn’t a queen, and your assertion is merely an opinion. Your position is fatally flawed.

Anti-KJB? Lol… what idiocy! No, but I do stand firmly against stupidity and ignorance. Most KJV-only arguments fall into one or both of those categories.

Take some training in logic and you might see your error.

You have confused knowing "the things of the Spirit of God" with knowing anything at all about God. In Romans 1:19-20, we are told that God has made plain to wicked people His eternal power and divine nature. That contradicts your view of 1 Corinthians 2:14. By your words, you do not understand...

Wrong. Take some training in logic and you will see your error... maybe.

No, she didn't "find" our salvation. She bore and raised Jesus. That's it, that's all. "Consented"? As though her opinion mattered? No; she wasn't consulted on the matter. She was told what would happen. She surrendered to God's sovereign will... joyfully, because she understood the incredible...

Faith is not the same thing as faithfulness. The text says we are saved by faith, not by faithfulness. The faith, by which we are saved, does not originate with us, but is given us by God. Your version would have God saying that we are saved by Jesus' faithfulness, which is given to us by God...

Your false dichotomy is your problem. I'm just as confident as you, but my confidence is rooted in the character of God, not in my self-made belief in the reliability of my chosen translation.

So you need to investigate for yourself whether the verse belongs in Scripture or not. Assuming it does is just as dangerous as assuming it doesn't.

So you reject Scripture? Okay. I'm not surprised. Scripture says absolutely nothing whatsoever about Mary having a throne, in Luke 1:28 or anywhere else.

Don't be ridiculous. Your (parroting of the Catholic) misinterpretation of Scripture is the problem.

The teachings of the church fathers is not Scripture. Acts 1:8 and Acts 2:42 are Scripture. I don't "reject" the teaching of church fathers, but I generally ignore it because it is not Scripture.
