Foxe was not a former Catholic. The dispute you're talking about didn't take place between Foxe and Tyndale, but Tyndale and someone else. Foxe merely reported the incident, but he wasn't part of it. Just the St. Bartholomew's Day massacre alone has estimates of 2,000 to 30,000+ who perished...

Interesting... I first read the Bible from cover to cover when I was in my late 50's. I made a commitment to read it in December 2016, and finished the OT in July of 2018. As soon as I closed the book, I walked out to the living room where my mom was sitting and told her that I finished...

Sez WHO? How can there be a 24 hour-day if the sun hadn't been created yet? And since the Bible says, "One day (24 hours) is like a THOUSAND days....draw your own conclusion. By the way, the verse says, "one day is LIKE a thousand days..." Not that it IS a thousand days...

These days, the mantra of many seems to be, "Life Is Short! So, ENJOY yourself and HAVE FUN!" If we're not having 'fun', we're "WASTING" time, and/or wasting our lives! The New Testament can and often does lead to self-examination...which can be depressing, especially if we realize that...

Where in the Bible is THAT 'rule' written? Do you even know what the 'soul' is? I don't really care about the majority use of 'semeron'. I care about contextual use. I do not see Luke 23:43 ALONE as 'proof of my position'. I see it as one piece of 'evidence' along with other evidence(s)...

Photons will only be absorbed if there's some'thing' to absorb them. You're not telling me anything that I don't already know. But the problem you have, is the SAME problem as you ALWAYS have. You don't delve deeply enough into what you're claiming. Depends on what you believe. "It was...

I DON'T believe differently...so, what's your point? Where does it say in the Bible that the Bible begins and ends with Genesis and Revelation? Where does it say in the Bible that the Bible is "Sola Scriptura?" Hint: It doesn't. If the dead "know nothing", then why was Samuel able to...

So *you* say... Not a good comparison, Phoneman. From a scientific point of view, light DOES continue to exist (travel), even if the source is destroyed. Consider some the light from some of the "stars" we see. While the star itself may no longer exist, we continue to see the light from what...

So YOU say. Catholics believe differently. Those who 'died IN CHRIST' are ALIVE. Their body may have died, but their soul is alive. Sorry, but there's nothing in the Bible to support the Protestant belief of "soul sleep." The thief on the cross with Jesus is a testament that not ALL of us...

You have no idea if that's true. "With God ALL things are possible." (Matt. 19:26) And considering how many individuals have said that they've received help from the saints, I'm sorry...but I don't believe that ALL of those people are lying. Got nothing to do with being "all knowing or...

No, I was trying to follow your train of thought. And now, you're backpeddling. And yes, Catholics do understand what "dying to the old man and putting on the new" means. But when Jesus talked about "laying down your life for your friends" he wasn't only talking spiritually. After all, by...

Hi Debp, I'm a senior, too. And while I used to hear some say that so-and-so was 'under the conviction of the Holy Spirit', it didn't have anything to do with "conviction" in a negative sense (such as 'convicting' someone of their sins). It was more like...having a sort of 'zeal' for their...

Sorry Bob...but you so WANT to judge others. Who are not. like. you. The measure you give is the measure you'll get. Good luck.

As long as you're still alive on this planet, then you DID NOT lay down your life for Christ! You think that by calling out brethren who are also about "love, joy, peace and forbearance, yadda, yadda, yadda" is "Christian-like?" Sorry to say Big Boy, but your whole attitude is what TURNED ME...

I'm only going to address what you wrote to me: You're right. I'm NOT Christ. But there's nothing...ab-so-lute-ley NOTHING in the bible that says that the Lord WON'T do some things. I'm willing to BET that *you* -- along with many others -- wouldn't be willing to 'lay down your life' for...

That's right! He DOES have the right to talk to anyone he wants! And some of the Apostles witnessed this. Aren't we supposed to imitate Christ? Were Moses and Elijah dead? Or alive in Christ? There are NO instructions from the Lord in His Word directing His people to use a computer...

Sooooo...JESUS was "sinning" when he spoke to Moses and Elijah... when BOTH had clearly been dead?

Does anybody care about the "10 things that non-Catholic Christians are saying about Catholics?" BT. DT. It's boring. Can't you guys think of something new to BASH us about? *Yawn*

To a point. Phoneman said: "Maybe if the papacy didn't make such blasphemous claims like the priest is "the creator of his Creator", we wouldn't criticize such blasphemy." The papacy didn't make that comment. St. Alphonsus de Ligouri wrote it in his work entitled "DIGNITY AND DUTIES OF THE...

I get that. What I don't get is why 'they' pay attention to those 'supposed documents' without looking up this stuff for themselves...tlus, I get the wanting to know...and the questions... What I DON'T get is, what's with the insults and the sarcasm....? I mean... ...where the heck is THAT...
