55 Critiques of John Calvin: Introduction & Master List That is what it says it is. There are no objections, but critiques. 55 of them. And you haven't quoted any of them yet claim they contain empty assertions. Another empty assertion on your part. The whole site is hyperlinked for anyone to...

It's not a defense of Catholicism (there is no such thing as a "roman church") It is a critique of Calvinism, which makes the same empty assertions, with no proof, as you do.

55 Critiques of John Calvin: Introduction & Master List

I didn't say "everything", I said "most things". Scroll up. Catholicism and Calvinism have more in common than you can imagine. John Calvin: Authoritative Council Needed to Unite Protestants

This is the Greek word martus, from which is derived the English word “martyr.” 1) Greek-English Lexicon of the New Testament (Joseph H. Thayer, Grand Rapids, Michigan: Baker Book House, 4th ed., 1977; orig. 1901, 392) defines it — as used in this verse — as follows: “One who is a spectator of...

It's amazing how many Christians support John Calvin's OSAS invention, yet they disagree with most other things he taught.

That doesn't answer the question. Does your religion forbid praying for others? Once again, "Praying to Our Blessed Mother is no different than you asking your own mother to pray for you. Is that worshipping your mother?" There is only one answer, and the answer is no. My question exposes the...

Praying to Our Blessed Mother is no different than you asking your own mother to pray for you. Is that worshipping your mother?

From a Protestant questioner on the Coming Home Network board, with my replies: * It kind of bugs me. Why did the Church have to announce those dogmas in the 1800s anyway? I’ve read that previous clarifications are in response to heresy. Exactly. The Church defined them at the highest dogmatic...

The verse does not say, "I saw a sign of a woman." and the verse does not say "sign of a red dragon". It's not me misquoting scripture. There is not a single Catholic document in a 2000 year period that says " you are damned, excommunicated, anathematized, ship wrecked your faith AND incur the...

DIALOGUE WITH A PROTESTANT (IN BLUE) ON THE ASSUMPTION OF MARY Since you brought up the supposed “Assumption of Mary” let us deal with that. You suggest that because a thing did happen to others (Enoch, Elijah etcetera) that it could have happened to Mary. That’s a poor argument for the idea...

It was not called the "Roman" Catholic Church in the first century. The prefix "Roman" as a blanket coverage for all Catholics was invented as an insult by the Anglicans in the 16th century. They wanted the name "Catholic" for themselves, so they made the distinction. The center for all...

Tell that to the Pew Research Center, which showed that .006% (3 priests) of the over 50,000 members of the clergy had a substantiated accusation made against them between June 1, 2017 and July 31, 2018. No religious or secular body can beat those numbers. Catholics, as well as non-Catholics...

The Catholic Church... defines doctrinal development as a growth of depth and clarity in the understanding of the truths of divine revelation. It is important to understand that the substantial or essential truths at the core of each doctrine remain unchanged. Only the subjective grasp of men...

This is trolling. Try contributing and following the thread with intelligent comments instead of the usual meaningless flaming zingers.

The sex abuse crisis in the Catholic Church has ended. Pretending it is ongoing and nothing has been done about it is a lie from Satan.

Scripture, Tradition, and the Magisterium all work together in harmony. One is not over the other. That is the biblical final authority on faith and morals. I challenge you, using scripture alone, to prove Tradition and the Magisterium are not necessary, or won't be necessary at some future point.

Isaiah 8:20 refers to those who practice the occult. Context is your enemy. 16 Bind up the testimony, seal the teaching among my disciples. 17 I will wait for the Lord, who is hiding his face from the house of Jacob, and I will hope in him. 18 See, I and the children whom the Lord has given me...

They didn't understand why He allowed Himself to be crucified until after He opened the scriptures to them on the road to Emmaus.

Catholic League president Bill Donohue comments on the latest report on priestly sexual abuse: In 2004, two years after the priestly sexual abuse scandal broke in the media, the United States Conference of Catholic Bishop released its first annual audit of this subject. We have been tracking...
