You are assuming that what the Catholic church teaches is differnent than what the apostles taught, when she can do nothing but hand on that which she received from Christ through the apostles... As for myself, i am a lazy schlub, who squandered my inheritance, and am not worthy to be but the...

Do you mean this one: The question is nonsensicle. It presupposes that there is a lie to be exposed.. Perhaps you should rephrase the question.. Peace!

You are confusing magic with the power of God. How did Jesus feed thousands with a couple fish and a handful of loaves? (Note: it is not by accident that John writes of this just before the Bread of Life discourse) Peace be with you!

I should say so, yes. Those that are living the Faith as they aught... As for how we worpship as a communuty, at the height of the Mass, we lift up that one sacrifice of Christ crucified, uniting to it our offering of praise and thanksgiving, our joys and our sufferings, yes our very selves...

Hello marksman, Hmm. Whether it is true that the wine becomes the Blood of Christ or not is independent of my belief or your unbelief. Jesus said it was His Blood.. I believe Him! You too! Are welcome to come to the wedding feast of the Lamb of God! Peace be with you! Christ is risen...

?? What are you talking about? The wine (and water) become the mystical Blood of Christ by the power of the Holy Spirt. Peace be with you!

Hellow Enow, Could you please clarify what you mean by 'obtain salvation'? Consider St John's words: If anyone says, "I love God," but hates his brother, he is a liar; for whoever does not love a brother whom he has seen cannot love God whom he has not seen. This is the commandment we have...

Hello Victory, Thank you for this. Spot on! And beautifully put! But the stone that struck the statue became a great mountain and filled the whole earth. Peace be with you!

Well that certainly sounds like persevering in charity to me... Peace be with you!

Whoever says he is in the light, yet hates his brother, is still in the darkness. Whoever loves his brother remains in the light, and there is nothing in him to cause a fall. Seems to me that 'persevering in charity' is indeed necessary.. Peace be with you!

through glory and dishonor, insult and praise. We are treated as deceivers and yet are truthful; as unrecognized and yet acknowledged; as dying and behold we live; as chastised and yet not put to death; as sorrowful yet always rejoicing; as poor yet enriching many; as having nothing and yet...

Ha, Reminds me of an old Othodox saying: ' the problem with the latins is they talk to much' Peace be with you!

Hello amadeus, Thought you might enjoy this: Peace!

hmmm... which do you think is more likely to know what tradition Paul is talking about... the communities founded by the apostles who received these things from the apostles, or Enow circa 2020 AD? But you, remain faithful to what you have learned and believed, because you know from whom you...

Of course! it's right here: Therefore, brethren, stand fast, and hold the traditions which ye have been taught, whether by word, or our epistle. And thus you find in all the ancient apostolic communities the sacraments of the Church, the 2000 year old living witness of those in communion with...

Hello Enow, said no apostolic community ever... Indeed this is so. The gospel is really very simple: believe and be united with Him! Jesus had just said: "and the bread that I will give is my flesh for the life of the world." so clearly HIS flesh counts for everything. His response to...

Hello marks, John tells us what it means: 1John 2: 9-10 Whoever says he is in the light, yet hates his brother, is still in the darkness. Whoever loves his brother remains in the light, and there is nothing in him to cause a fall. And ,of course, Jesus tells us how to abide in Him here...

Just as you know not how the breath of life fashions the human frame in the mother's womb, So you know not the work of God which he is accomplishing in the universe.

Hello Nancy, Who is the bride? Hosea 2:18-22 I will espouse you to me forever: I will espouse you in right and in justice, in love and in mercy; I will espouse you in fidelity, and you shall know the LORD. On that day I will respond, says the LORD; I will respond to the heavens, and...

Regardless of what cults may do, this is what John said of those who leave the community of the apostles... Peace be with you!
