These are historical truths. There were many books at that time. Some of those books were written by Gnostics. Christians were also reading books such as the Shepherd. But the matter was already settlted when St. Jerome wrote the first Christian Bible, which was the Latin Vulgate...

Yes, thank you for correcting the numbers that I got mixed up. The Septuagint contained 46 books - the same as the Catholic Bible. The Protestant Bible contained only 39 books of the Old Testament. Yes, there was a governing body of a reforming Judaism which was centered in the city of Jamnia...

The Old Testament books that Jesus and the Apostles used was the Septuagint (sometimes called the LXX). These old Testament books contain 39 books. At the end of the First Century, the Jewish Council of Jamnia, which consisted of the Pharisees, got together and took out 7 books from the Old...

It is possible to turn away from God because we have the free will to do so. Of the 12 Apostles that Christ chose, Judas Iscariot did turn away; yet, he was chosen by Christ. He was indeed an Apostle, but he made the decision to murder himself rather than to trust in God's mercy. It is only...

All a Christian need to do in order to lose their salvation is to reject God's grace. And yes, there are Christians who have converted to atheism and even to other religions.

The marriage rules of the Roman Catholic Church applies only to Roman Catholics. The Catholic Church recgonizes that non-Catholic Christians who marry in their own church, for example, are valid marriages. The Catholic Church also recognizes that non-Christians (such as the Jews) who are...

Actually, the only ones who can say that they are truely saved are those who are already in Heaven. As long as we are on Earth, it is possible to lose our salvation just as Scripture say; therefore, it is important to recognize when we sin and to repent from it: Hebrews 10:26-27 For if we sin...

It actually helps if you had read the entire thread first before posting. Afterall, how difficult can it be to read ONLY two pages??

No, Christians are not obligated to rest on the Jewish Sabbath Day (Saturday) just as they are not obligated to practice circumcision. The Jewish Sabbath was linked to the OLD CREATION in which God created everything in six days and then rested on the seventh day (See Exodus 31:16-17)...

Finally back home on Guam. :)

The thing is.....it would be best to look into the source first. If your source is anti-Catholic, then it's a one sided source that prints only half the truth to discredit the true teachings of the Roman Catholic Church. As I pointed out, Pope Boniface letter was used by some group to...

For some reason, I got cut off from the computer before I could finish off the rest of my response to you. Pope Eugene IV addressed this letter to the Catholics who left the Church. So, again, it is taken out of context. As the Bible says, a person who comes to the knowledge of the Truth...

According to the Holy Bible, Jesus IS a prophet (See Matthew 21:11). Matthew 21:11 And the multitude said, This is Jesus the prophet of Nazareth of Galilee. The problem with BOTH the Jews and Muslims (let's not blame only the Muslims) is that they are ignorant of the nature of God. Unlike...

First of all, that website is not a ROMAN Catholic website. It is a TRADITIONAL Catholic website. The Traditional Catholics were excommunicated by the late Pope John Paul II for going against the Second Vatican Council and for disobedience to the teachings of the Roman Catholic Church. When a...

Jesus does not serve any man. He served only God His Father and followed His Father's will....as all men should. The word in John 13:23 is "loved." This, however, does not mean that Christ did not love the other disciples. God has a right to choose. For example, among all the nations on...

Yes, I agree that with God's help, homosexuals can make the choice not to have sexual relations with people of the same sex. There is one person I know who is gay and he attends my Church everyday. Homosexuality is his cross because he is attracted to men. However, he remained celebate and is...

Homosexuality has an impact on society. Studies have shown that homosexuals have a higher rate of mental and physcial health as compared to heterosexuals especially among men. Studies have shown that gay men have a much higher sexually transmitted diseases because they practiced sodomy or anal...

We all have free will. The choices we make all have consequences. I believe in freedom of religion so a person is allowed to choose whatever religion they want to follow including the choice to not believe in God. However, like all things, freedom of religion comes with limitations. People...

I agree. God does not hate homosexuals. He only hates the sin. Christ came down to save sinners. He loves the homosexuals as well as all sinners.

Tradition says that Joseph died sometime after Jesus' 12th birthday.
