False prophets are legion. And Jesus warned us about them a lot.

So, no answers to the scripture I posted? And James was speaking of being justified before man, not God.

Of course I can name several that contradict scripture. The Bible contradicts all these Catholic doctrines: It condemns clerical dress. Matt. 23:4-5 says, "For they bind heavy burdens, hard to bear, and lay them on men's shoulders; but they themselves will not move them with one of their...

Nice dodge, but it's obvious that the doctrine that says the CC has Christ's authority gives them carte blanche in thier actions.

I suspect the heresies varied. In the case of Servtus; According to Servetus, God is one single person. He contended that the persons of the Trinity are actually “forms” in which God has chosen to manifest Himself. According to Servetus, Christ was made a man by God, and His human nature...

I never said protestants didn't kill people. Quit changing the subject.

The verse snowing is ineffective... So let us pick one passage: “I am the true vine, and my Father is the gardener. 2 He cuts off every branch in me that bears no fruit, while every branch that does bear fruit he prunes so that it will be even more fruitful. 3 You are already clean because of...

The doctrine that the church has the authority of Christ, imo.

I accept what Scripture actually says. That faith alone saves. If baptism were necessary for salvation then how do you deal with the paralytic man Mat_9:2, the penitent woman Luk_7:37-50, the tax collector Luk_18:13-14, and the thief on the cross Luk_23:39-43. Was Jesus just misleading them...

Yeah that's why they murdered all those heretics who were genuinely seeking for truth but didn't fall in line with the churches doctrine.

No it's not even close to the same. Losing salvation like you lose your car keys, because Oops! I had a really bad thought and didn't make it to the priest to repent before being hit by a car and dying...that's a legitimate concern under your doctrine. You don't lose salvation, but you can...

Lol, tradition, tradition! Tradition over scripture leads to false teaching

In the Early Middle Ages (c. 476-1000 CE) and throughout the High Middle Ages (1000-1300 CE) and Late Middle Ages (1300-1500 CE). The Catholic Church made it clear that one could only attain salvation and eternal life by following the precepts of the Church, and one’s alternative was an...

How many times do I have to tell you: I'm not a calvinist. I do not believe in eternal security, as the Calvinists understand it.

Do you hear yourself? Unreal. But not to worry, there's always wiggle room for the CC because in Roman Catholicism, “the Word of God” encompasses not only the Bible, but also the Apocrypha, the Magisterium (the Church’s authority to teach and interpret divine truth), the Pope’s ex cathedra...

It was the CC's doctrines that led to burning people at the stake.

Pieces of verses again. Reading comprehension is important!

So do I, but I have no reason to believe they acted justly, while if you are a member of the CC, you have to agree that the church has always been correct in its actions.

The CC are not my leaders, so the question is irrelevant. We are to obey those over us in our church community, as much as is possible. Of course, if they are not actually following the authority of scripture, that's a different matter and we have no obligation to obey a false teacher, because...

It (Roman Church) firmly believes, professes, and proclaims that those not living within the Catholic Church, not only pagans, but also Jews and heretics and schismatics cannot become participants in eternal life, but will depart "into everlasting fire which was prepared for the devil and his...
