    Jesus never said he was God Almighty

    Jesus was not conceived, He was incarnated. Big difference. Constantine was present at the Council of Nicae as a secular or temporal ruler, he had absolutely no spiritual authority and made no votes.

    Why I could personally never chose to be Catholic

    The scripture citations that I provided do that. I am not going to spoon feed you or brakelite. Look up the verses yourself and stop being so lazy. I'm not going to repeat myself 4 times. I can't make the blind see. Introduction to Trinitarian Theology “Going therefore, teach ye all nations...

    Why I could personally never chose to be Catholic

    This reflects a total misunderstanding of the Early Church Fathers, who they were, and how they contributed to the development of the Church. We know they are not scripture, no one ever said they were. They give us glimpses of the life and thought of the times they were in, and there is nothing...

    Why I could personally never chose to be Catholic

    Anybody can make a completely ridiculous fallacious comment by placing a question mark at the end. The #1 man made tradition by anti-Catholics is the blind refusal to accept the proper biblical definition of Sacred Tradition...that's not you, is it rstrats?

    Why I could personally never chose to be Catholic

    The 4th Commmandment has never changed, it's still there. You are conveniently inventing a lie. You can't even honor Jesus' mother because of your rigid pharisee-ism so who are you to lecture us about the 4th Commandment? That your SDA buddies don't print the whole thing??? Hypocrisy at it's...

    Why I could personally never chose to be Catholic

    "So you're saying that scripture is man made tradition? And what might those man made traditions be?" That is a straw man fallacy, because I never said such a thing, therefore you misquote me, and you misrepresent me, the standard anti-Catholic reply to just about everything. And you wonder...

    Why I could personally never chose to be Catholic

    I answered your false charges on Saturday only worship, and your false charges on changing the 10 Commandments. TWICE. Followed by no response. So why should I answer your question? It has little or nothing to do with the context of Matthew 7:9-12 from where the bulk of your question came; I am...

    Why I could personally never chose to be Catholic

    I really don't like being misquoted and misrepresented. That's two.

    Why I could personally never chose to be Catholic

    Again, here is that ridiculous quote we got from that Seventh-day Adventist (Brakelite): “NIV, KJV, NKJV, RSV etc. have all Gods Commandments intact. HOWEVER, the Catholic Catechism has totally deleted the 2nd commandment, and split the 10th into 2 to make up 10 commandments. They CHANGED Gods...

    You can be eliminated for following man made traditions.

    I haven't mentioned any doctrines. You can't refute my posts intelligently so you make a lot of noise. Your knee-jerk reactions to anybody who is Catholic, regardless of the content, are meaningless. You should look up "religion" in the dictionary and stop using your private definition.

    Ecumenism

    "...If they wish truly and effectively to oppose the world's tendency to reduce to powerlessness the Mystery of Redemption, they must profess together the same truth about the Cross.1 The Cross! An anti-Christian outlook seeks to minimize the Cross, to empty it of its meaning, and to deny that...

    Scripture does not condemn the use of images to aid in worshiping God, as some Christian communities suppose. On the contrary, the Old Testament is full of examples of God giving the Israelites permission to do just that, as in the pillars of cloud and fire and Ark of the Covenant, both pictured...

    That's ridiculous. Catholics worship The Father, the Son, Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit and nothing else. You have no evidence to the contrary so what you are saying is malicious slandering, done out of ignorance. When was the last time you were at a Mass and observed for yourself your...

    The Last Pope?? says there is no Hell!! More Signs of the Last days!!

    When the Pope teaches the truth, few pay attention. When the media lies about what the Pope said, the anti-Catholics go nuts. On 29 March 2018, news outlets began reporting that during an interview, Pope Francis purported denied the existence of hell: In an article titled “It Is an Honor to Be...

    Many Protestants will claim that, while the Catholic may say he does not adore statues, his actions prove otherwise. Catholics kiss statues, bow down before them, and pray in front of them. According to these same Protestants, that represents the adoration that is due God alone. Peter, when...

    Jesus Is the Reason It is Jesus Christ himself who gives us the ultimate example of the value of statues and icons. Indeed, Christ, in his humanity, has opened up an entirely new economy of iconography and statuary. Christ becomes for us the ultimate reason for all representations of the angels...

    A betrayal on the part of the priesthood? What part? No, I don't know what you are saying is true. Please explain in detail why you object to statues of Jesus and His mother, yet say nothing about statues of the reformers. Joh_4:24 That is not a condemnation of images, but how to worship...
