Hi Cassandra, Not what I think, rather what our brothers and sisters have thought and taught for 2000 years.. From the Didache that I linked written around 75 AD: On the Lord's Day of the Lord come together, break bread and hold Eucharist, after confessing your transgressions that your...

Hi APAK, Thank you. One must learn to rejoice in the valleys as well as the mountain tops.. Pax et Bonum!

Hello Cassandra, Indeed, we offer the Lamb who ONCE was slain and now lives forever (Rev 5:6) From the very beginning (~The Didache~) the Church recognized the offering of the Eucharist as the fulfillment of Malachi 1:11, and truly today it can be plainly seen that: For from the rising of...

The Word of God speaks, and so it is! Pax!

Lord! Pax et Bonum!

It is right, and just, that we do so! Maranatha!

Et tu JohnPaul? Why be so harsh? Do you know our hearts? Will you stand as the accusor of the brethren? Pax et Bonum

Hi quietthinker, I would think such a view of God is a terrible theological position, and one not supported by any good Christian or Jewish scholar. Of course it is this terrible (and frankly insulting) view of God that leads to the penal substituion theory of the Atonement of Christ's...

Not really sure what you're trying to say here.. Catholics are in agreement with James that faith without works is useless.. Or as Paul puts it ' i have faith to move mountains but have not love i am nothing' Here's a link to the catechism that perhaps will help you understand what the...

Hello Ferris, Perhaps what you are missing, is that it is Christ who 'performs' the Sacraments.. It is Christ who Baptizes, who consecrates, who reconciles, who ordains... By the power of the Holy Spirit, working through His body, the Church... As for an accurate telling of Catholic...

Children, let no one deceive you. The person who acts in righteousness is righteous, just as he is righteous.

What a gross misrepresentation of the Catholic faith... Good luck finding anything in the Catechism to support such outlandish assertions.. Perhaps you should talk with more informed Catholics..

Hello my friend, For most, The Pope is the Bishop of Rome, although I do believe the Copts call the Bishop of Alexandria Pope (or its equivilent) The term is akin to 'papa' or 'father' .. If you're satisfied with that answer I'll try to answer the second part :D Pax et Bonum!

All things work for the good of those who love God... and He knows who those are :)o_O;) Pax et Bonum!

hmmm anybody know where we can find 144000 consecrated virgins? Pax et Bonum!

Umm.. No.. Catholics think St. James said this: Do you want proof, you ignoramus, that faith without works is useless The issue has never been faith or works... But works wrought in faith! Pax et Bonum!

God looked at everything he had made, and he found it very good. Evening came, and morning followed - the sixth day.

Hello Mantis, But we must! For He loves them as surely as He loves us! This is why we call the Eucharist celebration 'Mass', for we, having been filled with the Life of Christ are 'sent out' to share His love with the world around us... To be light in the darkness.. To be salt of the...

Ah, and which of us does not long to hear 'well done good and faithful servant'... But I think for me it'll be more like.. 'what were you thinking! You doofus... Yeah ya scraped in...
