Not so sure thats the case; 'brood of vipers' etc...

Sometimes its hardest to love those closest too us... Pax!

Please identify this 'church of the bible' that stands in opposition to the Catholic Church in 100 AD , 200 AD and 300 AD.... Pax!

I am 100% sure that I dont deserve to go to heaven I am 100% sure that Jesus died for me that I may go to heaven I am 100% sure that we have a merciful judge Were I to die today , i would fall on my face before Him, and throw myself at His mercy.. I am 100% sure that I cannot argue with His...

1John 4:7 Beloved, let us love one another, because love is of God; everyone who loves is begotten by God and knows God.

From my perspective north of the border, it seems to me confidence has already eroded... That is how a man like Trump got elected... Watching US politics from here is almost like watching a bloodsport... Hope you guys stick with the peacuful handover of power thing....

If you say it enough times maybe itll be true.... nah...

Merely a vessel? You're talking about the bride of Christ. You need to let go of the man made traditions that have bewitched you.. May the Lord have mercy on your soul.

Wow. Just wow..

You throw that word around way to cavalierly... Consider 'by the measure you measure' And nice twist on my words to boot.. Now let me ask you, were Peter, Paul, John, James, Jude, Matthew, Mark, and Luke members of the already established Church when they wrote their letters and Gospels? My...

Perhaps you should reread the story of the multiplication of the loaves and fish... If you think that ALL of the apostolic communities are wrong and that 2000 years of the witness of our brothers and sisters is worthless then im quite sure my own experiences cant convince you... May the Lord...

Rev 7:9 After this I had a vision of a great multitude, which no one could count, from every nation, race, people, and tongue. They stood before the throne and before the Lamb, wearing white robes and holding palm branches 6in their hands.

It is not my standards that matter, but the those of the ONE who will judge all of us . I am hopeful that the saved will include not just most in the CC but most of humanity in general. Yes! And that includes not just Catholics but all who have received a valid baptism. Just myself...

Many have left for many different reasons... But leaving because of perceived faults in our brethren is the worst reason one can have imo.. But to bring it back to where we started ..... Every one of those you see coming forward to receive the Eucharist has been baptized into Christ, thus they...

Not sure what you mean by 'sprinkling', but heres some instruction from the Didache : And concerning baptism, baptize this way: Having first said all these things, baptize into the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, Matthew 28:19 in living water. But if you have not...

Which belief is that? Rules (discipline) can be changed, doctrine cannot. Example: celibate priestood is a discipline in the Roman rite.. That can be changed.. Male priesthood is doctrine and cannot be changed.. Pax!

Indeed. Examination of ones concience before receiving is important. That is incorrect. A priest can refuse anyone communion, but this is a grave matter, and not done lightly. Perhaps, but Jesus died to save sinners... Thus it is unsurprising to find sinners coming to Him to heal them.. I...

Why not? Pax!

Only 'born again Christians' are allowed to receive the Eucharist, so I am not unusual in that respect. But I do wonder if many who have left the Table of the Lord, do so because they never truly understood or believed that Jesus is there... Poor cathechisis can be problematic, I remember...

What more can one possibly need? To receive Jesus, experience His love, and take that love out into the world... What more can one possibly want? Pax!
