If we claim [/FONT][/COLOR][/SIZE]to BE without sin, we deceive ourselves and the truth is not in us.



What is wrong with you?

How do you conclude a man IN Christ, Who has Asked God for Forgiveness of his Sin…
“Claimed he HAS no sin?

Lol… “weird”!!

You are Not “I am”… nor is your Truth equal to Gods Truth
Soooo, according to YOU – a person has to be God in order to spread the truth??

Matt. 28:18-20

“All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.”

I am quite sure in your Carnal mind believes you’re Carnal understanding supersedes Scriptural meanings of Words.

PRAY…to address a solemn request or expression of thanks to a deity or other object of worship.
As I indicated before – this is a SECONDARY definition of the word, “Pray”. The PRIMARY definition simply means, “To ASK” . . .
While your catechism teaches you to bow and PRAY TO Statues and TO Dead People…
My Lord has taught me to PRAY FOR my fellow saints upon this earth, who routinely are subject to tribulations and injustices of ignorant men, of which you have adopted and promote their agenda.
WRONG, son.
The Catechism never tells us to pray TO statues or TO dead people.

And, as the Bible teaches – those who leave this world to be with the Lord aren’t “Dead”. They are MORE alive than YOU are . . .

How absurd. Saints IN Heaven are Praising, Worshiping God…
Holy Angels are Gods Ministering Servants…
And Christ Jesus is the ONLY heavenly Intercessor…Not Departed souls or spirits of human men.


Your false catechism teaching fails you miserably.
It's the Word of God Himself (Rev. 5:8).

Don’t
blame the Catechism . . .

You repeating false claims only proves the Truth escapes you.
Read it and weep . . .

Rev. 5:8

And when he had taken the scroll, the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders (those in Heaven) fell down before the Lamb, each holding a harp, and golden bowls full of incense, which are the prayers of the saints (those on earth).
Men who had/ have a relationship with the Lord God, witness / testify to Other men.
Angels (all around, unseen by humans) Witness to God what men do!
Exactlywitnesses who surround us . . .
Really … you think “souls under the alter” means souls IN Heaven? :rolleyes:

Scripture says no such thing.

Rev 6:9
[10] And they cried with a loud voice, saying, How long, O Lord, holy and true, dost thou not judge and avenge our blood on them that dwell on the earth?
[11] And white robes were given unto every one of them; and it was said unto them, that they should rest yet for a little season, until their fellowservants also and their brethren, that should be killed as they were, should be fulfilled.

You should stop eating up your false Catechism and try Tasting Gods Word… and consider Eating “His” Word.
They are disembodied souls of people who were slain in the name of Christ.
Here is the verse that YOU left out:

Rev. 6:9

When he opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of those who had been slain because of the word of God and the testimony they had maintained.


A little more study and a LOT more humility, son . . .

Good grief, do you Never Learn…?
Your “Sooooo” dramatics…
And Rewording what people say…is devious, deceptive, corrupt gaslighting….and Boring to boot!


As I indicated before – this is a SECONDARY definition of the word, “Pray”. The PRIMARY definition simply means, “To ASK” . . .

Prayer, Praying is The exclusive method of Communication Reserved to ASK The Lord God for that which He has Power to Give a man.

Bowing Down is The exclusive method of Worshiping whatever you bow down before.


You want to call out in names to spirits of dead persons, bow down before statues…
You ARE attempting to communicate with the dead and worshiping whatever statue you bow down before…
Your prerogative, Your consequence…

WRONG, son.
The Catechism never tells us to pray TO statues or TO dead people.

STOP- catechism, priest, nun, pope….Catholics are taught and do bow down before statues, pray before them, pray to dead people… all forbidden in Scripture.

And, as the Bible teaches – those who leave this world to be with the Lord aren’t “Dead”. They are MORE alive than YOU are . . .

Lol. Uh, blood is the life of man… pretty confidant you are praying TO Bloodless individuals, who are neither listening or hearing you.
Pretty confidant departed souls and spirits are Praising and Worshiping God, without a thought of you, less they be cringing at you bowing down before statues and embossed trinkets with their supposed bodily likeness.

blame the Catechism . . .

Not blaming, was accrediting.

Face it…own it, you participate in and practice anti-Scriptural teaching.

For Gnosticism,yes. It has nothing to do with Christianity.

John 6:28-29.
Then they asked him, “What must we do to do the works God requires?”
Jesus answered, “The work of God is this: to believe in the one he has sent.”


We are eternally,irrevocably Saved. God said that. Not the Gnostics.
That is true.

Gnostics did not believe in salvation by faith alone.

They believed salvation arrived through gnosis, knowledge.

Eternal security in Christ is something Jesus taught. He also taught his salvific grace was eternal.He told us,he will not lose any who are his.

It's been over 2000 years since our Lord returned home. Salvation is eternal security in him.
