You might want to change your profile regarding your "faith", as it says "Christian".

Here's two of your statements: "...in fact it was Him who found me." "...,go and find Christ,..." Are both of those statements true? Who finds who? And when you say it was Him who found you, is that the physical man Jesus you talked with face to face?

"God would never put a hole in someone's heart,..." Maybe He does. And maybe He does this, as you said: "...like being born again by Gods doing."

Yes.

"We either belong to Jesus, or we belong to whatever affiliation we have tied ourselves to." No. There are many on this site who belong to a local church, but belong, first and foremost, to the Lord Jesus. You seem to look at the local church as a hindrance to the worship of God, to...

If you mean see Him face to face as a man, as some on these forums teach... How about fear of the Lord? Scripture has many warnings of things like: following another Jesus, believing a false gospel, satan disguised as an angel of light, and our own desires and temptations to see, rather than...

Doesn't BoL at least attempt to teach the correct dogmas, etc. about the Catholic Church? Has he been wrong about Catholic teaching?

No, the church I attend does not teach "they are the way to heaven", or teaches "do enough works to be saved." I don't think I've ever attended a church that teaches those heresies. Don't know what 888 means.

He commands us to meet together, from Hebrews 10: 24. "And let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds, 25. not giving up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but encouraging one another and all the more as you see the Day approaching." Are you in...

People can be saved "without ever setting foot in a church". You bet. But, to deny all the church gatherings that, for example, the Apostle Paul spoke about, is just simply a denial of the Living Word. You always seem to equate "church" with man's religions. Not true. Was the church at Ephesus...

"They did fine without it..." do you mean there were no churches in the beginning, after the ascension of Jesus? I think Scripture tells of many church groups at the beginning.

Here's one where the word "liar" is used, but I can't find the post #: "Job is a textbook example of a liar and spreader of falshoods." (From the Church Forum) Please correct me if I'm wrong.

Wouldn't that also mean non-Catholics worship a different God than Catholics? Protestants, for example, worship a God they can't see;Catholics worship a God they can see.

Except for the bread and wine of your Eucharist.

By "man called Jesus" you are referring to the man who visits you personally, and whom you interact with face to face. Correct? I say this because it is important to know which Jesus people are worshipping: the Living Word who is God, or some other Jesus; such as a real man who visits them, or...

Well said!

I'll quote 2 verses which show that one is declared righteous/justified by belief/faith. That is all it takes to be declared righteous. That's why the word "alone" is used by those pesky Protestants. Must one do works to continue in righteousness? You bet. If Abraham had died 10 minutes after...

O.K.

There is a book by Douglas Wilson, "Black and Tan", which you may like. Amazon has it; used costs about $10.00. I read it online but don't know where I found it.
