    The Biblical Basis for Catholic Distinctives

    Sooooo if a group disagrees with 'you, your sister and a few others' on the proper interpretation of Scripture when it comes to on what one must do to be saved..... who is right and who is wrong? Your group or the other group? Curious Mary

    When to Leave Church

    Translation: I am embarrassed to tell you!! AND my prediction came true....You won't answer!! :rolleyes: Listen Triumph, if you FEEL like your church OR you are personally teaching the Truth and that you/your church does not teach a false doctrine and you believe all other churches...

    When to Leave Church

    Then don't be tied to a denomination. Be tied to The Church! Where in Scripture was the Holy Spirit clear on this? Or are you saying the Holy Spirit spoke to YOU about this? denomination = autonomous branch of the Christian Church.

    That is a better way to present the question. Thank you. I doubt @Triumph1300 will answer....but I could be wrong! Mary

    Secure Eternal Salvation

    Hmmmm.....here are some points to think about on the theory you have been taught that Peter wrote his epistle from Babylon: First, the book of Revelation symbolically refers to Babylon as Rome (Rev. 16:19; 17:5; 18:2).[1] Second, Peter says that “Mark” is with him (1 Pet. 5:13). Since we know...

    Secure Eternal Salvation

    Thanks Ronald. I can see how one might construe what you have quoted as being proof that "some churches held the teaching of the Real Presence, but some did not." You said MOST did not hold that teaching and the "proof" you provided does not back up what you said....but I won't belabor the...

    Secure Eternal Salvation

    Yup Ronald. I agree. The Protestant revolution of the 16th century has caused a lot of damage in the name of Christ. The Apostles did NOT establish churches (plural). Paul did not establish a "gentile church" which was different than the churches established by the other Apostles. There is...

    When to Leave Church

    Thanks for joining the convo Triumph. After the death of Jesus Christ the men of the 1st century had the Apostles to interpret His words and call out men who were teaching a false doctrine. The Apostles trained other men and those men lived into the 2nd century. Those men then taught the true...

    The Biblical Basis for Catholic Distinctives

    Ok...So I 'get in my bible' and learn HIM for myself and you get in your bible and learn HIM for yourself and a Methodist get's in the bible and learns Him and a Baptist and a Lutheran and Joe sitting in his basement eating his Dorito's on a Sunday morning does the same thing. We all come up...

    The Biblical Basis for Catholic Distinctives

    Secure Eternal Salvation

    Thanks. I THINK I understand what you are saying. Scripture lists specific local churches and specific men that were appointed to those churches (like Rome). Soooooo that all occurred before 100AD when Christianity was small in numbers. What about 2, 3 or even 400 years later when The Church...

    Secure Eternal Salvation

    Help me out Ronald. I read Timothy and Titus and I could not find ANY passage that said "when Peter got to Rome there was at least one bishop". I must be overlooking it. Which passage(s) are they? 2nd time asking: What is the purpose of a bishop if not "higher in order than local priests...

    Secure Eternal Salvation

    Hold on Ronald. You can't just say that Scripture shows that some churches held the teaching of the Real Presence, but MOST did not....and then not even quote one passage from Scripture that backs up your theory. Soooooo, Where in Scripture does it say that that some churches held the...

    What a beautiful picture Behold. Thanks for sharing it with all of us! :rolleyes: This is a picture of a man showing his love, honor and respect for the Mother of God. I wonder if showing love, honor and respect for the Mother of God is being Christ like? OH WAIT....it is!! Because Christ...

    When to Leave Church

    Nice try kiddo. I asked you a question. Are we having a conversation or is this an interrogation? Lets try again: Who in your denomination is guided by the Holy Spirit to properly interpret His words into the Truth? OR you can make it easier on me so I can do my own research to find the answer...

    When to Leave Church

    Your confusion comes in when you ASSUME that when the Pope speaks it is doctrine and all Catholics MUST believe what he says. If you can get that lie out of your head you will do well.
