    Why do we need priests?

    Song of Solomon 8:5 5Who is this coming up from the wilderness, leaning on her beloved?, (THE BRIDE) I roused you under the apple tree (ISRAEL IS THE APPLE TREE THAT WE ARE GRAFTED INTO). Israel aroused the faith in all the nations for the one true God, (THROUGH ISRAEL THE FAITH CAME); there...

    CHRISTIANS IT IS OKAY TO ADMONISH ONE ANOTHER : Galatians 2:11-13 Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition (RSVCE) Paul Rebukes Peter at Antioch 11 But when Cephas came to Antioch I opposed him to his face, because he stood condemned. 12 For before certain men came from James, he ate with the...

    2Peter 2:1-20 Deliverance from False Prophets 1Now there were also false prophets among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you. They will secretly introduce destructive heresies, even denying the Master who bought them—bringing swift destruction on themselves. 2Many will...

    Why do we need priests?

    \ NO HE CAN NOT. The comparison you use is like an apple to orange thing , she was not a person who knew Christ then chose to sin.She was a sinner who knew not Christ and chose Christ and was saved. That is not what a priest in MORTAL SIN DOES. AND NO he does not serve Christ. PERIOD. The...

    Romans 11:1-36 The Remnant of Israel 1I ask then, did God reject His people? Certainly not! I am an Israelite myself, a descendant of Abraham, from the tribe of Benjamin. 2God did not reject His people, whom He foreknew. Do you not know what the Scripture says about Elijah, how he appealed to...

    Why do we need priests?

    I notice a trend with certain men in here. They speak as though the RCC is the only assembly, and with that- it is the ONLY assembly which is Christ's church??? So I am going to L.A.R.P and go along for a bit. Based on this train of thought, then the Letters to the Churches all pertain to this...

    Why do we need priests?

    Are you a do- it- yourself theologian? Do you have something that would like to share with the class? The first do- it- yourself theologian who fancied himself a follower of Christ (Judas) was a scholar born of Sadducees' . Like men today, he thought he knew a better way than God. It would...

    Why do we need priests?

    No Mary is not exclude and how anyone could deduce that from Psalm 99 is out of his mind. Carry on. As for Jorge he can crown statues all he wants God knows his heart and knows what going through the motions looks like. But you are duped and have no clue what truth looks like.

    Why do we need priests?

    Really ? Where does it say mortal sin is forgivable? Question do you know the difference between Mortal sin and Blasphemy of the Holy Spirit? Do both denote being cut off from God- DEAD TO GOD or are they different? We know blasphemy of the Holy Spirit is the unforgivable sin, we also know we...

    Why do we need priests?

    I only need to defend the faith and the FAITHFUL. You can defend whatever misbehavior the wolves created. You can do whatever damage control. And that story goes on and on and on, to this very day. But clearly there is a lot of defending and explaining not because the behavior has been good but...

    Why do we need priests?

    Did I say something to the contrary that you address me? And everything you just said is an oxymoron: " Actually, the Church gave credit to Luther for bringing the abuses to light, and banned all money associated with indulgences at the Council of Trent" Then you follow with:"that is another...

    Why do we need priests?

    Wonder why a professing Catholic would set up threads which seem to encourage Freemasonry? Greater than that, I wonder why professing Christian catholics would brush off that sorcery as if it is no big deal? Isaiah 47:9 These two things will overtake you in a moment, in a single day: loss of...

    CONCLUSION: Malachi 2:2-3 A Warning to Priests …2“If you do not listen, and if you do not take it to heart to honor My name,” says the LORD of Hosts, “I will send a curse among you, and I will curse your blessings. Yes, I have already begun to curse them, because you are not taking it to...

    Why do we need priests?

    Man does not replace God. It is God who sets up shepherds. If a priest is invalid before God , God is clear what he thinks of him and his offering and no amount of two stepping will change His Truth. Christ is clear and His prophets are clear and no matter how long ones spiel is, it does not...

    Why do we need priests?

    Here's a thought.......If members of the body of Christ are not to pray for such a type of sin called (Mortal) then how can an unholy priest in mortal sin perform any priestly duty? Christ is not present in the man, therefore nor is He then in the bread and wine he offers.. Venial & Mortal sin...

    Why do we need priests?

    POINT: There are TWO trains of thought concerning the catholic assembly. You can ask yourselves which falls in line with God's word? Obviously I am of the stance that a priest in Mortal sin can not consecrate the Bread and Wine. Christ is not in such a man. Nor does He aid and abet in His...

    Why do we need priests?

    I wasn't going to respond as I am and even in that I am curbing my sincere outrage at such claims of irreverence. I will address this as nicely as possible. Actually I will let the saints and prophets address it. Why there is a complication within the Catholic assembly and opponents of it? It...

    Teresa of Avila and Watering the Garden

    I am still waiting for that support of your allegations . You tossed some very heavy accusations at Teresa. The burden of proof is on you and I am open to those proofs. God Bless!
