I post sources where I get my information. You never do. Not once. I will post information from fair minded, educated Protestants and manuals whenever I can, you never do. I get my information from a variety of sources: the catechism, with context and a link to the full page; -infallible...

No one has said that, it's another one of your polemical derailers. To be blotted out means a failure to persevere from what one already received. You don't get it. Another stupid polemical derailer. Predestined to glory is not the same as predestined to grace. You have the two .confused...

You make extensive use of metaphors, then you say: Another off topic point that you know nothing about. Those who are purified by burning are not hell bound, and not yet in heaven. You have no clue WHERE they are, so you make another false dichotomy of "saved and unsaved". Calvin did that...

You are contradicting yourself. "Born again" means born of water and the spirit in baptism. John 3:5 Jesus answered, “Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God.

I don't suppose you could find a more hateful, misleading source than "Remnantofgod", that has nothing to do with the topic, could you? The topic is sola scriptura, so why post such venomous anti-Catholic garbage as such?

First, your definition of "born again" seem to always subtract water from spirit. Jesus never did that. The bible doesn't do that. Having an emotional experience with a major moral turn-around at a church service is a good thing in itself, but it fails to meet the definition Jesus gave in John...

This has nothing to do with the authority principle in post #1614. The Authority Principle Revisited: The Key to the Formation of Culture If you look around the world today (or in any era), you’ll find that human culture expresses the dominant values of a society. For example, in the United...

Why is it so important for anti-Catholics to assert LIES like this with no evidence??? It's hate speech, PERIOD. The Council of Nicaea proved the Church had always been Trinitarian. NICAEA DID NOT INVENT THE TRINITY. Was Athanasius a heretic? Oh, sorry, I forgot, anti-Catholics, like the rigid...

For many years, one of the leaders in the British Israelism movement was Herbert W. Armstrong, founder of the self-proclaimed “Worldwide Church of God.” Especially for Americans, Armstrong was just about the only person they ever heard advocating British Israelism. With his own paid television...

Once-Saved-Always-Saved is your constant "moot point" that was invented by John Calvin, whom you may or may not agree with. You must agree with John Calvin. You must not agree with John Calvin. It's a kind of schizophrenic spirituality. Was Judas Iscariot, chosen to be one of The Twelve...

The KKK continues to operate in Colorado today, though it does not enjoy as broad an influence or membership as it once did. The Southern Poverty Law Center, an organization that tracks hate group activity throughout the United States, lists both a statewide KKK as well as a local hub in Grand...

"one man" cannot make infallible declarations on faith and morals without the protection of the Holy Spirit. It's impossible. Sorry, but I don't see an authority principle at work when the Lambeth convention in 1930 did a major flip flop on the matter of contraception, not even found in any...

What, exactly, are you trying to prove? Who places so much emphasis of this one verse? Professional liars like Jack Chick? Dave Hunt? Alexander Hislop? The fear based narrative of Jehovah's Witlesses or the Seventh Day Adventists? Where, exactly, are you coming from with this one verse? Paranoid...

I'm still waiting for your reply to "it is written" in Deuteronomy 8:3 that Jesus quoted to Satan, that demolishes your abuse of Mark 4:4. You haven't done that. You are stumped, so you reply with irrelevant emotional zingers because you are too proud to be corrected.

continued from post #1613 On a bad day… Even on a bad day, the Catholic Church looms over the world as an unassailable supernatural presence. Even when her leaders give the impression of Christ in very distressing disguise, she remains the one annoying presence in this world which, despite...

The Methodists are facing a crisis in which more than 2,400 local churches have disaffiliated from the “United Methodist Church” to form the new “Global Methodist Church” in response to radical changes in teaching on human sexuality. See our story: United Methodist bishops meet, look to pivot...

If the Pope was subject to the emperor, as the source asserts, then anyone should be able to show where any emperor ratified any official church teaching. A key point: When Catholicism became the official religion of the Roman Empire in 380, the power of the pope increased, although he was...

You haven't refuted Deuteronomy 8:3, the verse Jesus used against sola scripturist Satan. Got any more "irrefutable evidence"? :jest: No one ever heard of "sola scriptura" until Martin Luther invented it, largely due to his anger with the pope and his pride. Material sufficiency of scripture is...

The eastern churches were excommunicated 5 times, and each time they were reconciled by Rome. We've been over this before at least 3 times. So what. Bishops have equal standing when in communion with the Roman See. I don't think you understand this. It is reasonable to conclude the canon of...
