You are free to do as you wish of course, but to paint the communion of the saints as an occult practice akin to 'calling up the dead' is disingenuous.. Peace!

Purgatory is about temporal consequences not eternal ones... Purgatory, as in the scripture quoted earlier, is us being made perfect by the consuming fire of our Lord's love, burning away the dross, and all that we have built that's not of HIM! Peace!

I am interested in following the community of the apostles down through the centuries... I know the catholic, orthodox and coptic churches can demonstrate the cup being passed from the apostles down to today... You claim another community is the true church, and so we MUST find that community...

Hello Stan, Asking those who have gone before us to pray for us is not 'contacting the dead', it is conversing with those who are very much alive... 'he who believes in me will never die..' Peace be with you! Christ IS risen! Alleluia!

Hello shilosfoal, 'Where are those who counted the towers?' Peace be with you!

Cool. Would you then agree that Ignatius was bishop of the Church in Antioch? As for the others you mentioned, they come much later, and I will gladly examine them with you, after we have finished the 2nd century ok? Peace!

Hi Nancy, Yes and yes! And so some members have always done... Forget the verse but Paul mentions someone (Corinthians? ) being baptized on behalf of somone who was dead... Peace!.

Selling of indulgences is contrary to the laws of the Church... Peace!

Hi Nancy, Purgatory is not a 'second chance' it is this: the work of each will come to light, for the Day will disclose it. It will be revealed with fire, and the fire (itself) will test the quality of each one's work. If the work stands that someone built upon the foundation, that person...

Heya aspen, Just so you know, i was (mostly) having fun with you. Politics in the socialist state of Canada are quite different than the USA. Most members of our 'conservative party' would fit right in with your Clinton type democrats... As for the clip. The demonstrator was from a...

Hello phoneman, I would gladly start by looking at the early church with you ( perhaps a new thread?) We can begin by looking at Clement of Rome, Polycarp in Smyrna and Ignatius in Antioch... If you have others from that time period to examine feel free to list them... My first point: Jesus...

... Thats gonna make it a LOT harder to find one... :confused: How bout this: ‘Thank you for your donation’: Trudeau to First Nation protesters at Liberal fundraiser | Watch News Videos Online Peace!

Indeed! And when we love perfectly, there is no need to fear, for we will be walking, in all things, in our Father's will. Father, help us to love just a little more, every day, Every day forming us more into the likeness of your Son, our Lord, Jesus Christ. For this we pray..

Peace be with you!

Bobby, how can I fail a test of your teaching? Well at least you finally mentioned the name of Jesus! There is hope for you yet... Peace!

Bobby, You asked for your spirit to be tested... I do. Apparently you do not.. Perhaps you should go back to studying your books... 'you search the scriptures for in them you think you have eternal life....' The invitation with which we started, is an open one... You too! Are welcome to...

Again, (amen,) I say to you, if two of you agree on earth about anything for which they are to pray, it shall be granted to them by my heavenly Father. You forget that Faith is a gift! As for me and my household we shall serve the Lord! Peace!

Brother, I know your point, but you miss mine entirely... To deny that the children of God can ask this gift for our children, is to deny the very power of the Spirit Himself.... Where is your faith? Peace be with you!

Strike 2 Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood remains in me and I in him. Peace be with you! Christ IS risen! Alleluia!

Strike one. You shall keep it until the fourteenth day of this month, and then, with the whole assembly of Israel present, it shall be slaughtered during the evening twilight. Peace be with you! Christ IS risen! Alleluia!
