    Redemption ?

    While many Protestants regard Mary's perpetual virginity as a uniquely 'Catholic belief,' it should be noted that the Protestant reformers Luther, Calvin, and Zwingli ALL professed this belief as well. I present this argument ecumenically using Scripture alone, to prove that these 'brothers'...

    Redemption ?

    101G: Believing in heresies for years explains your confusion. All of page 1 says nothing about Mary's blood, not from me and not from BofL. You made it up, or ran with errors by others. The reformers taught all the Marian doctrines you object to, with mediation the only exception. Before the...

    Is The Vatican >Mystrey Babylon?

    You implied they did nothing for 7 years but listened to Moses every day. Sounds kinda boring. Children may have heard it but that does not mean they understood all of it. "hear the words of Moses Preached"where they hear the Torah!", "all were to hear Moses taught" supports oral preaching...

    Redemption ?

    Because non-Catholics like you are obsessed with a topic you know very little about. Every forum has miles of posts about Mary by anti-Catholics who don't have a clue. You are much too hostile to discover the truth of the matter, and making things up as often as you do will put you on my ignore...

    Redemption ?

    The Trinity is blasphemy? Protestants, Catholics and Orthodox accept the authoritive verdicts of the councils of Nicae, Ephesus and Chalcedon, all defining and clarifying the Trinity to refute heresies. Many anti-trinitarians have been ejected from this forum. Who is "we"? The Seventh Day...

    Redemption ?

    Co-redeemer is a theological term as a result of centuries of development. It is not yet dogmatic and not binding on Catholics for usage. I don't think it will be for some time because the general population doesn't understand the meaning of "co", which is plainly evident on this thread...

    Redemption ?

    Isaiah has always been a great saint, prophet and Patriarch of the Church. He is read out loud regularly. Everyone is wicked and corrupt except you? I know of no church or community that teaches just traditions You are quoting from a Catholic book. Only Protestants separate scripture from...

    Redemption ?

    I already brought this up. We are all co-redeemers when we pray for someone. But we are not THE Redeemer, our subordinate redeemer-ship is because of Christ's sole redeemer-ship and no other reason. We mare not supplanting or competing with Christ in any way, we are CO-operating with Him. It's...

    Redemption ?

    That's because you have a false definition of infallibility. Tell me what you think it means and we can go from there.

    Redemption ?

    He will SPEAK to his people, it doesn't say "he will write down for his people to read later." The SPOKEN word always precedes the written word. It doesn't prove sola scriptura, it proves sola Isaiah, and material sufficiency embraces all of it anyway. And Isaiah is not a Church Father.

    Redemption ?

    Yes, Catholics know all that. Plenty has been said about the meaning of "co" that you haven't been able to grasp. There is a very critical distinction which Catholics must always keep in mind when discussing the topic of Sola Scriptura. This distinction determines whether the doctrine of Sola...

    Redemption ?

    Regardless of how you interpret the ECF, none of them embraced Scripture as the final authority. They embraced material sufficiency of Scripture, not formal sufficiency. It is an important distinction. Material sufficiency of Scripture embraces all your quotes, so your quotes to prove sola...

    Redemption ?

    I would like to know the name of the source where you get these lies. "Co" in co-redeemer, co-Mediatrix, etc. is Collaborator Mary "assisted" in our redemption and she assist in our mediation with Christ. This context does not give Mary equal status with Christ, or usurp Christ in anyway...

    Redemption ?

    But that is not in the Bible. What you have to prove is that Tradition and Magisterium are not needed. That is impossible because without them we would have no Scripture. That's why you are forced to re-write history. How could the early church follow sola scriptura when there was no Bible for...

    Redemption ?

    Because doctrines develop over time. All of them do. The Bible itself is a development. The understanding of the Trinity is a development. "Immaculate Conception" just means Mary was conceived without sin; the doctrine has been there since the earliest centuries of the Church. Just because...

    Why do some Christians see Christian art as idolatry?

    Normal people don't worship art as an idol. In fact, I've never met anyone who worships art. The charge is just silly. Iconoclasm is a left over from the reformation and it hangs around like a bad smell.

    ANTI-CATHOLICISM IN THE MEDIA

    January 25th, 2017 CHRISTMAS FOES ON THE RUN; PUSHBACK IS EVIDENT There was a time when the Christmas haters were on the offensive, but now the pushback is in full gear. Our side is showing increasing resolve, and becoming more creative, even when we lose a legal battle. The Catholic League...

    ANTI-CATHOLICISM IN THE MEDIA

    If I believed half the lies you do about the Catholic Church, I would hate her twice as much. The "New Mass" is when the Church got rid of most of the Latin. That was in the late "60's. Are you old enough to remember it? It's the same Mass; the essence has not changed in 2000 years. No one...

    OFFENSIVE CHRISTMAS FARE EXPLODES

    WAR ON CHRISTMAS November Springhill, LA – The Springhill Branch Library banned a living nativity scene that was to be portrayed by a First Assembly of God youth group because library officials disallowed anything with “religious tones” on library grounds. As a result, the living nativity scene...
