A quote from your post: "OBOMINATION ~ TRUMP - THE POLAR OPPOSITES. WAKE UP CHRISTIANS! WE WERE WARNED TO BEWARE OF THOSE WHO COME TO US IN SHEEPS CLOTHING!" The Scriptures mention false prophets to beware of (Matt.7:15), but our President isn't a prophet. Maybe Christians should beware of...

No.

I meant the sin of suicide. You can't repent after you are dead.

How do you force someone to not kill themselves? People find a way to do that if they wish. What people want to do is make assisted suicide legal, for the most part to assure themselves that, even if they become disabled and unable to kill themselves, someone can do it for them. Again, it is a...

Every human deserves worse than what you are describing. Did Jesus willingly, and by the Father's determination and foreknowledge, choose to suffer and die? I long to die also, but let's not approve of the sin of assisted suicide.

I agree with your statement: 'It’s only “idolatry” if it is NOT Christ.' But, I think I have the faith of the Apostles, which teaches that one should not worship a physical object. The Apostle Paul said: (Romans 8)"24. For we were saved in this hope, but hope that is seen is not hope; for...

The Mass proclaims that the bread and wine is (at the words of consecration) God Himself; in person, bodily, completely God. Since it (the Eucharist) is a physical object, and being worshipped, it is an idol. The hate is due to the sin of idolatry; not directed to each Catholic, but to the...

Your statement: "Every Christian should be able to discern the evil emanating from the Pope's eyes." Yes, I did try to bait you.I shouldn't have added the part about salvation, so please forgive me for that. But, your quote is a sweeping statement of what a Christian should be able to discern...

I'm a Christian. I don't see it. Is this a test for maturity, or a way to lose my salvation if I fail?

I agree.

People born blind, limbless, etc. are born as sinners. If one is born same-sex-attracted (SSA) , that person is sinning by desiring the same-sex. That particular desire is a disordered affection, and is sin. And, like any other sin, Christians are commanded to repent of it.

The god of the CC is the bread and the wine (visible). So, the CC worships a god it can see. The Scriptures indicate that one should not 'hope for what one sees', as that is not hope. Protestants hope for, and have faith in, the God they cannot see.

"We simply have more faith than you guys do." No. Protestants (speaking generally) have faith in the God they cannot see. The CC has 'faith' in a god they can see. (Romans 8:24) For we were saved in this hope, but hope that is seen is not hope; for why does one still hope for what he sees?

Maybe this is the way to say it: God hates sin. The CC sins in every Mass (idolatry) it performs. I think God hates your church. But, I am commanded to love my enemies, so I must say I do not hate Catholic Christians, even though I hate your church.

I did not say I was against Catholic Christians. I clarified by saying I am anti-Catholic Church. Won't answer your 'new question'.

Curious Mary: I don't believe the CC is a Christian church, but I assume that many of its members will be saved. So, I am anti-Catholic Church.

I think that, even if he knew what the CC 'truly believes', he would (hopefully) 'stay in his anti-Catholic mindset'.

Is there a 'sin of denominationalism' in the Church of Christ? In other words, am I sinning by being a member of a particular Christian church? If so, and I don't repent, will I be saved?

I thought the Mass was a re-presentation of the same sacrifice of (their) Jesus? (without the blood) It is still an idol, as they worship, bow down and serve a physical object: the bread (wafer) and wine.

"…and all the hosts of heaven are always right,…" The worship of the host of heaven was one of the earliest forms of idolatry and was common among the Israelites in the times of their turning away from the pure service of God (Unger, M. F., Harrison, R. K., Vos, H. F., Barber, C. J., and Unger...
