    Ummm, it was the Catholic Church who gave the NT Canon of Scripture to the world with the gudance of the Holy Spirit and and preserved it over the centuries. You wouldn't even HAVE a Bible ig not forthe Church. They don't teach you that in your anti-Catholic congregations . . .

    WRONG, my intellectually-bankrupt friend . . . Sacred Tradition is ON PAR with Scripture (2 Thess. 2:15). And since you've already been told this - and the Catechism is available onlinbe for your reference - the fact that you propagate thiss lie makes you morally-bankrypt as well. Rev. 21:8...

    I just showed you that it DOES. NOT sure how you can read that an NOT see it . . . 1 Cor. 10:4 - Paul relies on the ORAL TRADITION of the rock following Moses. It is not recorded in the Old Testament. See Exod. 17:1-17 and Num. 20:2-13. 2 Timothy 3:8 - Paul relies on the ORAL TRADITION when...

    No matter how you slice it - OSAS or Eternal Security or whatever you want to call it – is a false and unbiblical doctrine. You can’t be this dense. HOW does an R-1 Visa force the establishment of a state religion on anybody? HOW does it restrict anybody from freely practicing their religion??

    I’m saying being a Sola Scripturist is a self-defeating proposition because Scripture puts Sacred Tradition on EQUAL footing with itself (2 Thess. 2:15).. That’s NOT what Paul said. THIS is what He said: 2 Thess 2:15 "Stand firm and hold fast to the Traditions you were taught, whether by an...

    Explain what you mean by that. ALL of these verses are directed toward the living.

    God is the ultimate Authority. His Authority is conveyed to us through Scripture (2 Tim. 3:15, 3 Pet. 1:21), Tradition (2 Thess 2:15, 2 Thess. 3:6, 1 Cor. 11:2) and the Church (Matt. 16:18-19; 18:15-18, Luke 10:16, Joh, 16:12-15, John 20:21-23). Then you reject Scripture itself . . . Your...

    No it’s not. It is the actual legal definition of what a D-1 Visa is. YOU’RE just embarrassed because I exposed your ignorance . . .

    How many former Catholics are here?

    Spoken from an utter ignorance of the U.S. Constitution . . . The R-1 Visa is a non-immigrant visa for temporary religious workers. How is this a violation of the Constitution?? You don’t understand the First Amendment. I will now educate you . . . The First Amendment states: Congress shall...

    Do you even understand what OSAS is?? OSAS stands for “Once Saved Always Saved”. Otherwise known as “Eternal Security.” This is a false Protestant doctrine. The Bible warns us that borna-again Christians can LOSE their secure position and be LOST – by their OWN doing . . . (Matt. 7:19-23, Matt...

    This has absolutely NOTHING to do with OSAS.

    First of all – separation of Church and state is NOT a Constitutional matter. In fact, the ONLY time that phrase was ever uttered by the Forefathers was in 1802 letter to the Danbury Baptist Association by Thomas Jefferson. It is certainly based on principles of the 1st Amendment – but not...

    How many former Catholics are here?

    That’s NOT Sola Scriptura. Sola Scriptura is the false Protestant belief that Scripture is our SOLE Authority. Show me where the Bible teaches this . . . Then you’re VERY sheltered. Infant Dedications are commonplace in Protestant circles. WOW – this is like talking to a wall . . . Ummm, I...

    How many former Catholics are here?

    That’s a pretty inane question. The difference is that we don’t offer sacrifices to idols. As I already educated you from the Catechism – the worship of anyone or anything other than God is idolatry. For the LAST time, my lying friend – Catholics worship God – and God alone.

    I merely stated that the Eucharist is the glorified body, blood, soul and divinity of Jesus Christ. YOU’RE the one who has the problem with it – not me . . . Tell that to the Holy Spirit, who commands it through Paul (2 Thess. 2:15) . . . First of all – you don’t understand what “communion”...

    WRONG. There was ONE Church established in many places – be it Jerusalem, Antioch, Corinth, Ethiopia, etc. Bu, make NO mistake - it was ONE Church . . . Tell that to the first century Church in Corinth, whose clerical issues had to be resolved by Pope Clement I, the Bishop of Rome – yes, the...

    His Body wasn’t “re-created”. It was glorified, like ours will be. It is in its fullness. We receive Him in Hid fullness in the Eucharist. “This IS my body.” “This IS my blood.” ““This cup IS the new covenant in my blood. “ What part of this do you thin He wasn’t being serious about? Where...

    Nope. Christ is King. Just as Joseph was Pharoah’s chief representative and God appointed Moses as HIS representative to His people – the Pope is Christ’s representative. That’s what a Vicar is by definition . . . The Catholic Church isn’t a “branch” of Christ’s Church. It’s the Original Tree...

    His glorified Body isn’t a ghost. He ate and drank after His Resurrection (Acts 10:41Luke 24:30-43) His body STILL has the wounds of His Crucifixion (John 20:27). No – it IS just a symbol to you. To the Early Church – it is Christ Himself . . . Ignatius of Antioch Take note of those who hold...

    Paul is telling the Corinthians to disassociate with people who are immoral – sexually or otherwise. He didn’t say ANYTHING about judging their hearts or condemning them . . . An idolator by definition is one who worships someone or something other than God. We worship God alone – as commanded...
