Matt. 26:26-28; Mark. 14:22,24; Luke 22;19-20; 1 Cor. 11:24-25 – Jesus says, this IS my body and blood. Jesus does not say, this is a symbol of my body and blood. Matt. 26:26; Mark. 14:22; Luke 22:19-20 – the Greek phrase is “Touto estin to soma mou.” This phraseology means “this is actually”...

I didn't say that. "My words are spirit." is not a metaphor. It's removed from it's context in John 6. You take large parts of scripture literally but not John 6. You do not have supernatural faith to believe Jesus' words. We are not discussing the Sabbath. That does not mean "eat my Flesh...

Three days and three nights is a Hebrew idiom, it does not mean 3- 24 hour periods. The phrase “one day and one night” meant a day, even when only a part of a day was indicated. We see this, e.g., in 1 Sam 30:12-13 (cf. Gen 42:17-18). We know that Jesus was crucified on a Friday because...

iF truth7t7 likes Tyndale and Hus's Bible so much, then there is no reason why he would reject a gender neutral Bible. The Church rejected their Bibles for the same reason truth7t7 would reject a gender neutral bible. A few years after the English government executed Tyndale, English...

I didn't say that. What Protestant leaders say is recorded by historians, theologians, documented sermons and so on. What they said can be adequately substantiated; It is not hearsay. Claims of what the Pope said in the absence of recording devices CANNOT BE ADEQUATELY SUBSTANTIATED. hear·say...

This has nothing to do with post #15.

"God made you like this ..." I've given this some thought. I don't think those were the Popes exact words. First, it's hearsay. He said he said..." is hearsay. Juan Carlos Cruz said the Pope said that. That's hearsay, third party information. Then it went to a reporter who wrote what he said...

Love for the truth was a favorite theme of Pope John Paul II. “Let us seek the truth about Christ and about his Church!...Let us love the Truth, proclaim the Truth! O Christ, show us the Truth! Be the only Truth for us!” – Agenda for the Third Millennium Pope John Paul II The Holy Father’s...

I believe the Bible contains absolute truth, in spite of the limitations of human language. A definition of absolute truth is found in post #7. If you call that circular it could be that you are spinning.

DECLARATION ON THE RELATION OF THE CHURCH TO THE JEWISH PEOPLE NOSTRA AETATE The Church keeps ever in mind the words of the Apostle about his kinsmen: "theirs is the sonship and the glory and the covenants and the law and the worship and the promises; theirs are the fathers and from them is the...

There is no proof because the Catholic Church has never wanted, no has any desire to replace Israel. Were do you get this crap from? The idiots on you tube?

Robert Catesby, Guy Fawkes and other conspirators were not acting on behalf of the Church. They were acting on behalf of themselves. Good motives, wrong method. They were trying to put an end to the persecution of Catholics. They were tortured. Falkes slipped of the gallows and broke his neck...

It is an absolute truth that Jesus is God. It has nothing to do with belief, although I believe it to be an absolute truth. What has been divinely revealed by God are absolute truths.

Not all metaphors are spirit. It's not me that denies the spiritual/physical aspects of the Eucharist. This has NOTHING TO DO WITH THE DISCUSSION, and NOTHING to do with post #61 (scroll up). You have a habit of posting off topic rabbit trails. I am aware that the Church is spiritual, but she...

No one said Mary is the mother of the glorified God. That is a straw man fallacy. We believe Jesus is God, and Mary is His mother. In that sense, Mary is the mother of God. How do you think Jesus came to earth? In a space ship??? Infallible Catholic teaching begin with what has been divinely...

Anti-Catholics, at war with the Church, are mentally ill.

The internet has been set ablaze following reports of highly controversial comments made by Pope Francis during a private conversation with an openly gay man. Juan Carlos Cruz, who suffered abuse at the hands of a Chilean priest, spent three days with Francis talking openly about his struggles...

Yup, nothing like a catchy headline TAKEN OUT OF CONTEXT to discredit the Pope, not to mention a total misrepresentation of the Church's teaching on homosexuality. Being a homosexual is not a sin, doing homosexual things is a sin. Contrary to truth7t7 psychotic babbling, the Pope is not...

The way you can tell that relativism is mainstream, is that there is no such thing as rational debate. In the absence of objective truth, there can be no debate, for a debate is dependent on the assumption that there is something to debate. A debate can only take place if there is such a thing...

PROTESTANT SCHOLARS AGREE, PETER IS THE ROCK John Broadus (Calvinistic Baptist) "As Peter means rock, the natural interpretation is that ‘upon this rock’ means upon thee. . . . It is an even more far-fetched and harsh play upon words if we understand the rock to be Christ and a very feeble and...
