It's a promise, not a prophecy. A conditional promise.

Well, I'm not exactly sure what you're saying because it doesn't make any kind of sense. But if you are promised an inheritance by God, you can be sure of it unless you refuse it by renouncing your faith.

Of course that's what it says, but you can't read passages in isolation. You have to let scripture interpret scripture. " For ye are dead." Doesn't mean you can't choose to let your faith fail and become dead in sins instead of buried with Christ. It's addressed to those who believe, and just...

You do know about punctuation? And you do know that there's lots of teaching about heaven beyond that? "Then the King will say to those on His right, 'Come, you who are blessed of My Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world." "And now I commend you to...

Those are wonderful promises for believers "8 See to it that no one takes you captive through hollow and deceptive philosophy, of this world...." Also in Colossians 22) "And you, who were once alienated and enemies in your mind by wicked works, yet now He has reconciled in the body of His...

Ah yes, the papal infallibility. Always the need to explain away any blunders. When Protestants have a bad leader all they have to say is he doesn't speak for God. You have to explain away popes who tortured people, or commit adultery, etc. Ever wonder why we can't take your church seriously?

Such as all religions being God's will. "Thepluralism and the diversity of religions… are willed by God.” That’s quite a concession for Francis to make, as it contradicts Christ’s claim that “I am the way and the truth and the life; no one comes to the Father but by me.” (Jn. 14:6). He has...

Your popes are forever making unbiblical statements. If you can't even trust your head guy who is supposed to speak for God himself, you might have a problem.

I really can't even tell what you are trying to say. Please use complete words and punctuation, and explain what you actually believe about heaven and we can perhaps have a discussion.

A few? How widespread is the corruption? Just what we've seen is horrendous, and I'm sure it's nothing compared to what was hidden. Just in one state: "The report estimated more than 300 priests across the state abused at least 1,000 known victims, and it condemned the wider clerical culture...

It was said that the bishops must be followed because they have the authority of Christ. I say not if your bishops and Pope are corrupt. If you have an organization corrupt to the top, teaching falsehoods, you are following the wrong " father." The Pope is not teaching what Christ taught, so how...

Cherry picking incomplete verses, lol. No context... Up against a slew of verses promising eternal life to believers... The new Jerusalem isn't figurative.

We are to be slaves of Christ's, not blind followers of evil men. Matthew 7: 15 -20 “But you are not to be called ‘Rabbi,’ for you have one Teacher, and you are all brothers. 9 And do not call anyone on earth ‘father,’ for you have one Father, and he is in heaven. Matthew 23

Sure, pick one and give me your thoughts on it.

I said from scripture. And what makes you think Ignatius would want you to listen to a bishop who was not godly? "Prosecutors and gendarmerie staged a raid this month into the usually serene offices of the Vatican’s Secretariat of State, seizing computers and caches of documents from archives...

IMO the passage only makes sense if it's speaking of spiritual death. Saying you will save him from death is very different than saying God might lengthen his life.

There's a ton of verses about us having the assurance of eternal life, which is assurance of heaven. Where do you think believers who have died are?

Heaven is literal. Read Revelations. Yes, salvation starts now. We are not just to occupy, but to glorify God here and now.

As soon as you show me one that says it refers to the Catholic church.

Maybe in some cases, but he doesn't state it as a mere possibly.
