That demonstrates just how embarrassingly stupid some anti-Catholics are. Their credibility is as vacuous as their minds.

Because by pointing out falsehoods re the Catholic Church, you are opposing Satan and obstructing his polluted river of lies. So just stop it!

What are "the implications"? What do you understand about "Jesuit education"?

I remember reading a Protestant claim that the Inquisition killed 90 million!!! Absolutely hilarious. No doubt there are folks out there who believe this absurd figure. Satan is the father of lies.

In that case, the Cathars weren't even Christians - just some idiotic cult that was not of God and deserved extinction.

All Catholics are sinners, so they are prone to weaknesses and errors. The mistakes and sins of certain Catholics don't prove that the Catholic Church is not what she claims to be - ie, the one, true Church founded by Jesus Christ, whose doctrines are the infallible word of God.

This verse says the testing of our faith produces patience. Fair enough. But other verses imply that the testing of our faith is required before our salvation is granted - for example: ”now for a little while you may have to suffer various trials, so that the genuineness of your faith … is...

The reason for that is, no one is saved until after they die, are judged by Christ and are granted eternal life. You are confusing justification with salvation. How do you know you have “saving belief”? How do you know you will not be liked those in Luke 8:13 who “believe for a while” but...

The "sacrificial work of Christ" does not mean you are eternally saved and "sealed" as soon as you believe. You can delude yourself with that nonsense if you like, but it won’t help you on Judgement Day - Christ will decide if you’re saved or not; your opinion will mean nothing. Furthermore...

Of course not. We are not saved by works alone, but by faith and works. If you study the whole NT, you will learn this. In Rev 3:4, those who are “worthy” of salvation are those whose “works” (3:1) have not “soiled their garments” (3:4). In Rev 2 and 3, Jesus criticizes six of the seven...

Some people are so gullible, they'll swallow any ol' rubbish that's fed to them.

The Star of David is the national symbol of the state of Israel - that's good enough for me. I don't care about any mendacious, anti-Semitic fairy tales about pagan symbols. The snake is a symbol of the devil, yet Moses held up an image of a snake to cure the people.

Fair enough, but there are other verses to consider: ”now for a little while you may have to suffer various trials, so that the genuineness of your faith … is tested by fire (1Peter1:6-7); 1Thess 2:4 says God “tests our hearts”; ”Blessed be the man who endures trial, for when he has stood the...

It is certainly proving to be a waste of time - I asked you twice to explain why God tests our faith and hearts if He knows us completely, but as yet you have failed to provide said explanation. Sorry, no “twisting” involved - the text clearly implies God knew something about Abraham after the...

So you’re implying that the eternal “seal” exists from the moment you believe. Jesus says some people “believe for a while” and then lose their faith and “fall away” (Luke 8:13). According to you, once you have the “seal” you can’t lose it, so if a believer loses his faith, he still has the...

Jesus says some people “believe for a while” but then “fall away” (Luke 8:13). If the “seal” is received as soon as one believes, and then one loses faith, what happens to the “seal”? Obviously, the “seal” is lost if faith is lost.

The Star of David is a pagan symbol? I didn't know King David was a pagan!

Can you be more specific, please?

Sorry. which covenant do you refer to?

Sorry. Maybe I'm getting Jesus and Elvis mixed up. Which one lived in Graceland?
