And I asked YOU to read the Scriptures in their FULL context. Not every verse will give you an explanation. Verses 1 Cor. 1:13, Gal. 5:6, James 1:14-24 do just that. They explain what is meant by having “Faith”. Peter spoke well of YOU when he warned that Paul’s letters were difficult to...

You’re not only confused – you’re dishonest. I HAVE shown you verses that not only talk about the necessity of works – but explain how works are indeed an essential element of faith and not just and “extra” (1 Cor. 1:13, Gal. 5:6, James 1:14-24). If you don’t have love and obedience – you DON’T...

You’re still confused. – and your confusion stems from your trying to separate faith from the works which God has prepared for us to complete (Eph. 2:10). As I stated before and what the Bible teaches – it’s not “Faith + Works”. Works are an essential element of Faith. Works by themselves have...

You guys ALWAYS post Eph. 2:8-9 as “proof” that works have nothing to do with faith: Eph. 2:8-9 For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God - not by works, so that no one can boast. But you usually skip the very next verse, which...

You can also lose faith if YOU fail to edure. That’s on YOU not God. That’s why prayer and communication with Him is so important. 1 Thess. 5:16-18 Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you. And He won't - IF we...

That's NOT your call to make. You are now in violation of Matt 7:1-3. You can judge any person's actions - but NOT there soul.

He said that this would happen to many individuals - NOT the Church as a whole.

Tell me then – WHERE is the historical record of this “Church” that rejected Baptismal Regeneration, the Eucharist, the Real Presence, Infant Baptism, etc.?? You can scream, “False doctrine!” all day long. But, unless you have some actual evidence – your objections fail . . . How do YOU know...

Wolves have always been loving among the Sheep, spreading their falsehoods and heresies. Even during the time of the Apostles, there were Judaizers and heretical groups like the Gnostics. Later, the Church dealt with the Arians, Marcions, Nesrtorians, Sabellianism, Modalism, Manicheans, etc...

Interesting . . . So, if the Early Church got their doctrines from God’s Word – WHY is it that Protestants don’t? The Early Church believed in Baptismal Regeneration and Infant Baptism. (Irenaeus, Tertullian, Hippolytus, Justin Martyr, Clement, Origen, Cyprian, Ambrose, Augustine) The Early...

This is a stupid argument. You can’t provide Scriptural evidence for MOST Books of the Bible. Tell me – how would YOU go about doing that? Really?? Name ONE . . . My theocracy? Do you even know what a theocracy is?? No – I do not have my own country and I am NOT the head of any government . . .

And as I stated before – the 1st century canon was not only fluid – there was no single approved canon. - Samaritans and Sadducees accepted the Law (Torah) – but NOT the Prophets (Nevi'im) and Writings (Ketuvim): - The Pharisees accepted all three. - Other Jews used the Greek Septuagint that...

And, apparently – nothing will make YOU understand the Scriptures in their proper context. As for me – I will remain steadfast to Christ and His Church, God does the converting. I’m just here to defend His Word and His Church. I’m here to expose lies from anti-Catholics and to set the record...

The Jews never gleaned information from pagan sources to formulate their doctrines. Anything pagan would have been considered unclean. If you have an example - please present it . . . Being the Son of God – Jesus would have absolutely not done this. The fact that there are similar beliefs among...

And cooperating with God’s will. It’s more than just menta assent. James 2:19 tells us that the demons believe - and tremble. They believe deeply in who Jesus is. They just refuse to surrender. That’s why he goes on to say that faith without works is DEAD (James 2:24). It’s not faith and...

WRONG. Apparently, you didn’t read the CONTEXT of 2 Macc. 7:1-42. The woman received back her sons after they were martyred and raised to new life: 2 Macc. 7:23 For this reason, the creator of the world—who brought about the beginning of humanity and searched out the origin of all things—will...

No – I argued from History, giving you names and dates. Claiming that I have “no evidence” is not only silly – it’s a LIE. WRONG. The Canon of Scripture was officially closed at the Council of Trent in the 16th century. It cannot be “re-opened” . . . The only thing “funny” here is your...

I never claimed that Jesus wrote these things. I was showing you that the writers of the NT quoted and referenced the Deuterocanonical Books that were in the open Jewish Canon of the first century. However – since YOU brought it ip – Matt. 6:19-20 – Jesus’ statement about “laying up for...

My response to these claims is a resounding, “HOGWASH!” . . . First of all – during the time of Jesus – the Canon was NOT close, by ANY sense of the word. This is why there are over 100 quotes and references to the Deuterocanonical Books on the pages of the New Testament that are missing from...
