God became man. The Incarnation was the event in salvation history that raised matter to previously unknown heights. All created matter was “good” from the start (Gen 1:25), but was “glorified” by the Incarnation. Ritual and “physicality” were not abolished by the coming of Christ. Quite the...

The Miracle of Lanciano is consecrated Bread and Wine turned into real Flesh and real Blood and hasn't decomposed after 1200 years! Eucharistic Miracle of Lanciano The early Church Fathers are indispensable resources for helping to bridge the gap between our own time and the age of the...

If you left the historic Church with this nonsense, you weren't much of a Catholic. Nor did the LCMS or WELS or LDS or UCC or most other denominations. But of course, the Orthodox would insist the RCC separated from it (but the RCC insists it is the other way around). There was no RC...

Laying of of hands has nothing to do with a condition of salvation, I never said it was.. You have been throwing verses at me desperately trying to prove OSAS for several weeks, and you haven't succeeded. That's because OSAS is a false doctrine and it's not in the Bible. The truth is much...

A while back you were arguing with me that there was no laying on of hands. No, it isn't. Romans 8:35 is about not being separated from the love of Christ. It is not a guarantee one will never separate themselves from the love of Christ. In case you forgot, we all have a free will. Romans...

That is forum sadism. CATHOLIC: Where did the word originate? It comes from the Greek word Katholikos, which was later Latinized into Catholicus. It means 'Universal', which in itself means, 'of or relating to, or affecting the entire world and ALL peoples therein'. It means, ALL encompassing...

Agreed, but you can't name one single bishop after the death of the last apostle. And you can't name one single, reputable Protestant historian of the last 50 years that agrees with your psychotic fantasies. Cowards don't post their sources of lies of this magnitude, or you dreamed up these lies...

No, I deny your abuse of them. I don't accept everything in John Gill's commentary because he is a biased Baptist hyper-Calvinist with a freeze dried theology written over 300 years ago, although I have used it myself on rare occasion. These verses refute OSAS. They ALL say they are saved, and...

God cannot turn His back on God, it's impossible. Jesus could not finish Psalm 22 because He was dying. Willie turned the light on with verse 24. BTW, Jesus spoke Aramaic from the cross, not Greek.

You rebut verses not on my list in post #8. You say you rebutted my post but just a handful. I used over 20 verses followed by a brief exegesis. They were written by John Salsa, who has a Ph.D. He has a few public debates on line. Unlike most people in here, I give my sources. What assurances...

So you are at a loss to give the year this "denomination" started, and you either refuse or are unable to name the Person who started it. Finding the year and founder for any Protestant denomination is easy. All parishes and rites are in union with their bishop, the bishops are in union with...

If your parents were Catholic, you do not need re-baptism. Some converts are surprised to discover they don't need baptism, because the Church recognizes baptism from other churches as valid. Catholics use the Bible in daily liturgy. The Bible says to HEAR the word of God, it says nothing about...

You refute yourself.

If the Catholic Church is a denomination, then you should be able to pinpoint the year it was founded, and Who founded it. Cite scholarly sources please. The CC didn't separate from anybody. The CC has all the essential truths today as she did in the first century. The evidence is there for...

The catechism as abused by Matt Slick is not the catechism, but paragraphs taken out of context using false dichotomy tactics. He does not use the catechism properly, only as weapons to attack and mock. You don't know what the catechism is for, or where it came from, or its proper use, and you...

Who do you think called the cops in the first place? We don't deny there are sick men in the church, but they belong in the church. Jesus came for sinners, not holy righteous perfect people. The aide was sent to the hospital for treatment and he will face criminal charges just like everybody...

The Pope, as a human being, is not infallible. You just refuse any and all explanations of the true meaning of infallibility. Do you deny the infallibility of the Council of Jerusalem as well? When did this infallibility expire? What Constantine did for the Church as a temporal ruler had no...

And many, both men and women, who have been Christ’s disciples from childhood, remain pure and at the age of sixty or seventy years…” Justin Martyr, First Apology, 15:6 (A.D. 110-165). “And when a child has been born to one of them, they give thanks to God [baptism]; and if moreover it happen...

No Scott. You are not being accountable for your hatchet job on you did with Luke 12:51. We are the bad guys in the flesh and you are the good guys in spirit and you accuse me of lashing out? Peter didn't follow Jesus? He gave Peter nothing to do? Your clarity is dubious. This is the kind of...
