I see.... you think it is wrong for us to bow down to statues because the Bible says not to bow down, but it is okay for you to keep images of your loved ones in your home and wallet despite the fact that God also said "Do not make any likeness of anything that is on earth." Exodus 20:4 Thou...

Once again, I will post my response to the 3 questions that a poster asked. I've also added some additional comments in blue. 1. Catholics do not worship statues. The Bible says "Thou shalt not make to thyself a graven thing, nor the likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or in the...

My sister, we are not to worship anyone or anything other than God. That is what God looks for in a person's heart. Whether you bow out of respect to the angels or to a human king does not matter so long as one does not worship the angel or the human king. God already commanded that statues...

Are you denying what Abraham did in the Bible when he bowed down before the angels when they came to visit him? Did you not know that in Asian and Middle Eastern cultures, bowing is a sign of respect? Where was Christ raised? He was not raised in the United States where they don't bow as a...

Again, I have given my response to Joebeliano's post if anyone cared to read it. I'm sure it would answer a lot of your own questions. Furthermore, Aspen is correct. Catholics only worship God and God alone. It is in the Catechism of the Catholic Church. And if anyone bothered to read what...

When a Catholic bows or genuflects to a statue or image, that is not worship at all. It is the same kind of bow that Christopher Columbus showed when he bowed or genuflected to the king and queen of Spain. Was he worshipping the king and queen of Spain? No. He was showing respect. That is...

This is my respone to Joebeliano's questions, and I hope that it answers the questions of everyone else's as well. 1. Catholics do not worship statues. The Bible says "Thou shalt not make to thyself a graven thing, nor the likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or in the earth...

Hello Jobeliano, I would be happy to address your questions: 1. Catholics do not worship statues. The Bible says "Thou shalt not make to thyself a graven thing, nor the likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or in the earth beneath, nor of those things that are in the waters under...

Matthew 7:1 Judge not, that you may not be judged. Luke 6:37 Judge not, and you shall not be judged. Condemn not, and you shall not be condemned. Forgive, and you shall be forgiven. These are words spoken by Jesus. When a person judges everyone as sinners while he says that he is sinless...

Hello Aspen, I am a Roman Catholic and I am very knowledgeable in the Catholic faith and in the Catechism of the Catholic Church. I am a Minister of the Word in my parish, and I am currently walking in the Way as a Co-Responsible in my community. My family are strong in the Catholic faith...

Who said anything about mental illness? There are all kinds of doctors. In my post, I never specified which doctor you have been to? I simply asked, "When was the last time you saw a doctor?" It was YOU who brought up mental illness; therefore, I assume that someone (maybe a family member or...

You misinterpret my question. Trust me...I have absolutely no fear of you. As a matter of fact, I do not even fear death. It is such a simple question I ask, and right away you accuse me of something that is not true. A person who reacts to such a simple question is a person who is showing...

Out of curiosity, when was the last time you saw a doctor?

OOOOOHHHHH!!!! WOW!!!! Ooooookayyyy.......Hmmmm......:blink: :blink: I've seen pride and arrogrance before, but never to the point where someone is actually proclaiming to be God Himself.

Have you noticed that he is using the same verses that we have written in our own bibles; yet, he claims that the Roman government changed the biblical verses. If the Roman government changed the verses, his verses should not be exactly the same as ours. In Christ, Selene

I am sorry to tell you, my friend but the Word of God is Truth and is not a hypocrite. He would not use scriptures as being useful and inspired and then say to burn those same scriptures because he thinks it is useless. In other words, one cannot say that Scripture is useful and then say it is...

If the Scriptures are not the word of God as you say, then why do you quote the scriptures to us? In Christ, Selene Judging people is a sin. Bragging that one is sinless is also a sin. All these are sins of pride. In the Bible, there was a story about a sinner and a Pharisee who...

A person who says that he has no sin is already commiting a sin....the sin of pride. Where is the humility? A person who judges others also commits a sin.... the sin of pride. Having a username "The Word" also speaks of pride because there is only one "Word" with the captalized "W".....His...

Hello Religusnut, 1 Corinthians 14:34 is interpreted to mean that women are not allowed to teach in Church or in the Assembly. This biblical verse is aligned with 1 Ti. 2:12. St. Paul DO allow women to speak in Church because in 1 Corinthians 11:5, it shows that a woman can pray and prophesy...

Did not the Anglicans express a desire to return to the Catholic faith? A Catholic has no problem taking holy communion in an Orthodox Church because the Orthodox Christians have kept all 7 sacraments. Do you keep the sacrament of the Eucharist? If you do, then it should not be a problem to...
