Dear Ferris, as they make a pretense of religion but deny its power. Reject them. If there is no power in the sacraments, if the POWER of the Holy Spirit is not active in Baptism... Why bother? Time to walk away from the powerless doppelgangers, and come embrace the real thing.. You too! Are...

Hello Brakelite, Why not? If Jesus can multiply loaves and fishes to feed our bellies, certainly He can multiply Himself to feed our souls.. (There is a reason John places this miracle just before the Bread of Life discourse) Hmm now, Jesus holds up the Bread and says, here I am.. You say...

Hi Romanov, Welcome to the board. I know many people who are conservative and not Christinian. Many of course belong to other faiths such as muslims, jews etc.. What is interesting to me, is that Christian morality seems to be split both on the 'left' and on the 'right' .. So i dont think...

Hello Ferris, How is Jesus sharing His life with us and pouring out His Grace on us through the sacraments, a 'works based salvation?' Maybe instead of attacking that strawman, you should try to understand what we actually , believe, teach and practice. You can do so by reading this...

I told you, but you do not believe me. Jesus and Paul were speaking to Jews who rejected Christ, you are speaking to a child of God and member of the body of Christ. You are not competent to sit as her judge. Treating others especially the children of God with the respect due them is not...

Interesting that this thread is leading to a discussion of celibacy. I think Paul and Jesus have something to say on that but I think I'll just keep kibitzing for now :) Pax et Bonum

You should probably stop standing in the place of the accusor of a daughter of God, Anointed priest, prophet, and king, she is worthy of far more honor and respect. Pax et Bonum

Hello heartwashed, Are you saying that I have been horrified and disgusted by the open display of unrighteousness that is a 'pride' parade, that means I am guilty of what they do? That makes no sense to me ... Pax et Bonum

?? Whatever gave you that idea? The martyrs were not destroyed but are very much alive and part of the communion of the saints, Polycarp qnd Ignatius being obvious examples.. There community still exists today and will forever! Please trace their community back to the apostles for me of you...

Dear Brakelite, If they were destroyed, then clearly theyre not the planting of the Father and did not fulfill Jesus prophecy.. If they 'morphed' pne should be able to identify their community down through the ages.. If they left the community of the apostles and established their own...

And where are these comminities that have rejected the Sacraments and the authority of their bishops today? Where were they in 100 ad 200 ad.. 500 ad... The Truth does not change.. 'every planting not of My Father will be uprooted' Pax et Bonum

When did Alexandria rely on the state? As for leaders and kings submitting their whole nations to serve Christ and His Church? Oh and merits of the treasury? Now I rejoice in my sufferings for your sake, and in my flesh I am filling up what is lacking in the afflictions of Christ on behalf...

Indeed! Certainly not as often as I should (always) and never perfectly and sometimes shamefully not at all.. But by God's Grace, more and more each day. Thank you Father, For the gift of my wife. All praise and glory are Yours, through Your Son, our Lord, Jesus Christ Who lives and...

Ah brother, All this time and still you dont know me? My faith is not blind. Neither is it in apostolic succession, but rather in Christ and His promises to His Church and in the power of the Holy Spirit. That which is belived, practiced and taught by the whole apostolic Church, everywhere...
