    Is it possible to lose salvation?

    The most human thing that we do is to reject Authority. It’s been going on since the Garden of Eden. Jesus gave His Church the Authority to teach what He taught them – and they wrote much of it down. With the guidance of the Holy Spirit, He gave that Church the Authority to compile and decide...

    WRONG. It shows that His love is boundless . . .

    Is it possible to lose salvation?

    In a nutshell - It is the implementation of rampant individual interpretation and the rejection of the Authority of Christ's Church (Matt. 16:18-19, Luke. 10:16. John 20:21-23), whom He promised to lead that to ALL TRUTH (John 16:12-15).

    Is it possible to lose salvation?

    Uhhh - STILL waiting on an answer to the following questions you've been running from . . . 1. Can YOU show me where the Bible says that we are ONLY yo adhere to what is in the Bible?? 2. What did the Christians do for the first 300 years of the Church when there was NO Canon of Scripture??

    Is it possible to lose salvation?

    According to YOU – but NOT according to Scripture (Matt. 7:19-23, Matt. 10:22, Matt. 24:13, Matt. 25:31–46, John 15:1-6, Rom. 11:22, 1 Cor. 4:4, 1 Cor. 9:27, 1 Cor. 10:12, 1 Tim. 4:1, 1 Tim. 4:16, 2 Tim. 2:12, Heb. 3:6, Heb. 3:12-14, Heb. 6:4-6, Heb. 10:26-27, 2 Pet. 2:20-21, 2 Pet. 3:17, 1 John...

    Is it possible to lose salvation?

    Good grief, this is a frighteningly stupid remark . . . “Tradition”, by definition is something that is NOT written down in Scripture. WHY would you insist that they would be?? John tells us that Jesus did MANY things that were NOT written down (John 21:25). He left a Church - NOT a Book to...

    Is it possible to lose salvation?

    Ummm, Jesus was speaking of the Pharisees and scribes who were living hypocritical lives and placing their traditions ABOVE the word of God and the spirit of the Law (Matt. 15:9, Mark 7:5-9). He was NOT condemning ALL Tradition. Time for a Bible Lesson . . . Paul tells us that we are to "Stand...

    Is it possible to lose salvation?

    The point here is that I didn't rip Rev. 5:8 out of context . . . It illustrates people in Heaven interceding on OUR behalf by taking OUR prayers to God as "golden bowls of incense". You ALSO dodged my questions and never answered them: 1. Can YOU show me where the Bible says that we are ONLY...

    Is it possible to lose salvation?

    Hmmmmm . . . . Non Catholic doctrines and practices NOT found in the Bible: - Sola Scripture – The Bible is out SOLE Authority - Eternal Security (“Once Saved, Always Saved”) - Born-again believers can't sin - Altar Calls - A Pre-Trib “Rapture” - Denominations - Accepting Christ as...

    Is it possible to lose salvation?

    No. We don’t “re-sacrifice Him. That would be heresy. His was a once-for-all sacrifice (Heb. 9:12, Heb. 10:10). We must also remember that Jesus’s sacrifice is ETERNAL (Rev. 5:6). We re-present His once-for-all sacrifice and are brought to Calvary at every Mass. At every Easter, Christians ALL...

    Is it possible to lose salvation?

    Transubstantiation occurs specifically during the consecration of the Eucharist. Jesus is referring to His spiritual presence in Matt 18:20, not His physical presence.

    WHAT IS THE WATER IN JOHN 3:5?

    Not only is this patently FALSE – it is as ignorant and stupid as everything else you say on the topic . . . Just a quick browse through the Catechism would show you that virtually EVERY paragraph in there is supported with multiple verses of Scripture. Many Traditions are also implicitly based...

    Is it possible to lose salvation?

    I The usual Greek word used for human eating is “phagon”, however, this is NOT the word used in these passages. John uses the word, “trogon”, which means, “to munch or to gnaw “- like an animal. Jesus was again using hyperbole as he often did to drive his point across so that the crowd would...

    Is it possible to lose salvation?

    You are correct. It is a matter of discipline, not dogma or doctrine.

    Is it possible to lose salvation?

    And thanks for avoiding the question. Here it is again for your enjoyment . . . Can YOU show me where the Bible says that we are ONLY you adhere to what is in the Bible??

    Is it possible to lose salvation?

    Jesus is our only mediator because only HE can bring peace between us and the Father. HOWEVER, we are ALL called to be intercessors - and that’s exactly what we see in Rev. 5:8. And, if you were Baptized in Him – you WERE forgiven for every sin you committed before coming to Christ. You are...

    Is it possible to lose salvation?

    Yup. Everybody forgets that we still have a free will . . .

    Is it possible to lose salvation?

    We have victory in Christ when we come to Him in Baptism and repentance, living lives of faith. We have a moral assurance of our fate. What we DON’T have is a guarantee that we won’t lose our security. NOT because God will takt it away from us – but that WE will walk away and return to our...

    Is it possible to lose salvation?

    He didn't say NOT to. We ARE told, however to pray and intercede for one another as the Body of Christ. Paul explains in 1 Cor. 11 that the Body has many parts - and they ALL need each other. If we, the parts of the Body of Christ ALL need each other - why would we NOT ask each other for...

    Is it possible to lose salvation?

    First of all, hearing multiple people at the same time doesn’t require OMNIpresence. In other words, they don’t have to be everywhere, which is what omnipresent means. Secondly – everything you are and everything you are capable of in Heaven is because of Christ – NOT because YOU are special...
