Is this link the same as catechism of Catholic? If it is so, the ten commandments looks really different to cater for idol worships: http://www.vatican.va/archive/ccc_css/arch...ism/command.htm

QUOTE(yeeck @ Jan 24 2017, 05:47 PM) The second bolded part above was not part of the Wiki article but from your false understanding. St Jerome certainly is a Catholic and submitted to the authority of the Church. St. Jerome who lived from 347 A.D. - 419 A.D. Mini-bio: Dalmatian; priest, hermit, abbot, biblical scholar and translator, Doctor of the Church In a letter to Pammachius (Epistle 66) says: "Other husbands decorate the graves of their wives with violets, roses, lilies, and purple-colored flowers. By such tokens of love they relieve the grief of their hearts. Our Pammachius bedews the sacred ashes and the venerable remains with the balsam of alms; for he knows what is written: 'As fire is extinguished by water, so is sin effaced by almsdeeds.' " I see that you also conveniently left out the later portion regarding St Jerome: Other uses of apocrypha developed over the history of Western Christianity. The Gelasian Decree (generally held now as being the work of an anonymous scholar between 519 and 553) refers to religious works by church fathers Eusebius, Tertullian and Clement of Alexandria as apocrypha. Augustine defined the word as meaning simply "obscurity of origin," implying that any book of unknown authorship or questionable authenticity would be considered apocryphal. On the other hand, Jerome (in Protogus Galeatus) declared that all books outside the Hebrew canon were apocryphal.[6] In practice, Jerome treated some books outside the Hebrew canon as if they were canonical, and the Western Church did not accept Jerome's definition of apocrypha, instead retaining the word's prior meaning (see: Deuterocanon). As a result, various church authorities labeled different books as apocrypha, treating them with varying levels of regard. I believe you have searched on wikipedia.org for you to conclude my false understanding. So, I reproduce the full section with links to wikipedia to prove my "false understanding": https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ApocryphaIntroduction
Apocrypha is commonly applied in Christian religious contexts involving certain disagreements about biblical canonicity. Apocryphal writings are a class of documents rejected by some as being worthy to properly be called Scripture, though, as with other writings, they may sometimes be referenced for support, such as the Book of Jasher. While writings that are now accepted by Christians as Scripture were recognized as being such by various believers early on, the establishment of a largely settled uniform canon was a process of centuries, and what the term "canon" (as well as "apocrypha") precisely meant also saw development. The canonical process took place with believers recognizing writings as being of God, subsequently being followed by official affirmation of what had become largely established.[3] The Roman Catholic church provided its first dogmatic definition of her entire canon in 1546, which put a stop to doubts and disagreements about the status of the Apocrypha, as well as certain other books, which had continued from the beginning of the NT church.[4] The leader of the Protestant Reformation, Martin Luther, like the Catholic church father Jerome (and certain others), favored the Masoretic canon for the Old Testament, excluding apocryphal books in his non-binding canon as being worthy to properly be called Scripture, but included most of them in a separate section, as per Jerome.[5] Luther also doubted the canonicity of four New Testament books (Hebrews, James and Jude, and Revelation), which judgment Protestantism did not follow, but he did not title them Apocrypha.
Explaining the Eastern Orthodox Church's canon is made difficult because of differences of perspective with the Roman Catholic church in the interpretation of how it was done. Today Orthodox accept a few more books than appear in the Catholic canon.Perhaps, my version of wikipedia is totally different than Catholic version of wikipedia; otherwise, please file a report and request my version of wikipedia to delete the section that is not in line with Catholic belief.

QUOTE(yeeck @ Jan 27 2017, 11:40 AM) There's nothing wrong with that link. If what you are hinting is that Catholics number the 10 Commandments differently from Protestants, have a read at this: http://catholicbridge.com/catholic/10_commandments.phpNothing wrong with the link. I guess he wasn't the pope and the link wasn't from the real Vatican then.

Uncle Yee, What do you think of this site? https://www.christiantoday.com/article/ther...tion/106453.htmWas Church of the Holy Sepulchre, built in 4th century, a site selected by Constantine?

By the way Uncle Yee, why did Jesus in John 20:17 asked Mary Magdalene not to hold on to Him? Was it because He has not ascended to heaven and still have a mortal body or a "transitional body" before heavenly body so not touchable? What was the early church fathers' interpretation? What was Roman Catholic's interpretation?

Colossians 2:8 (NASB) 8 See to it that no one takes you captive through philosophy and empty deception, according to the tradition of men, according to the elementary principles of the world, [a]rather than according to Christ.
