Remember Ppm,none of this is personal
Quoting what the bible says about the religous power that would exalt itself above God .

Not my words,nothing at all to do with me.

The below is quotations from this institution which has a man as its head.

The reader can decide for themselves if these claims match up or not.

Again ,talking about an institution,not individuals.

“The Pope is of so great dignity, and so exalted that he is not a mere man, but as it were God. and the vicar of God.”
(Ferraris Ecclesiastical dictionary)

Angus, as per normal you're only kidding yourself.
You are getting your info from people living in dreamland, you have to go directly to the horse mouth if you want to get the correct info

This is what the CC teaches regarding the pope

The Catholic Church does not teach that the Pope is divine, but rather that he is the visible head (human) of the Church on Earth and the Vicar of Christ.

The title "Vicar of Christ" denotes the Pope's role as the visible representative only of Jesus Christ on Earth, exercising authority and leadership in the Church. It reflects the belief that the Pope in guiding and shepherding the faithful. This title emphasizes the Pope's role as the earthly head of the universal Church, entrusted with the spiritual care of the members of the Church.

The Bible clearly teaches that all human beings, including the Pope, are mere men and not divine. In the Gospel according to Matthew, Jesus affirms the distinction between God and man in Matthew 22:21, saying, "Render therefore to Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and to God the things that are God's." This shows that even the highest earthly authority, represented by Caesar, is distinct from the divine authority of God.

The Church have consistently emphasized the humanity of the Pope and his role as the servant of the servants of God. They have never taught that the Pope is divine, but rather that he is called to follow in the footsteps of Christ as a servant leader, for the faithful

The Magisterium of the Catholic Church explicitly teaches that the Pope is a human being, chosen by God to lead the Church with humility and servanthood. The Catechism of the Catholic Church states in paragraph 881 that the Pope is "the Bishop of Rome and the Supreme Pontiff of the Universal Church, Vicar of Christ on Earth." This title signifies his role as a representative of Christ, not as a divine being.

Sorry, as per normal you are clearly demonstrating that you got no eye deer (no idea)
I always get a smile when you post

Ppm

They were not my words
They were quotes with references what has been written and said in papal history.

It is on record.

Would you like me too dig up some old papal bulls that have been issued etc etc its easy to do,its all historical record.

Lets not brush over the changes in beliefs and worship system from the original either.

Surely you wont claim the same willing ignorance on that too?

Im not saying anything,its just all on record.

Would also like me to quote Romes claims in regarding the trinity and the sabbath both not being explicitly laid out in scripture?

As in sola scriptura?

Again,im using evidence not opinion.
