Ok...Ummmmm I never suggested that it is your "obligation to correct them". It is the responsibility of The Church hierarchy to correct them. Nor have I ever said that all catholics follow official teaching sooooo whats your point? Soooo who are your rulers that you give double honor to?

Thanks Gary. To some it's just common sense. To others, like @JohnPaul, they are comfortable reading Scripture and interpreting it on their own thinking they are right and everyone else is wrong. Scripture teaches opposite of that. Respectfully, Mary

Hi Taken, Its not a big secret that those "clerics" are worthy of double honor for they are in charge of our souls (1 Timothy 5:17). It is no secret they Keep watch over all the flock, of which the Holy Spirit has made them overseers so that they can shepherd the church of God. Sadly some...

Thanks JP, How do you KNOW you are adhering to the bible? I know you think you are....but how do you KNOW you are? The key point I was making is that you (a mere man) believe that you adhere to the bible. You do this according to YOUR interpretation of the bible. Other men interpret the bible...

Oh...YOU adhere to the bible? So if I follow what YOU (a mere man) teach then I would be adhering to the bible but if I follow what the men of The Church teach I am not adhering to the bible? It sounds like you believe the men of the church.....any church (denomination) are not as smart as you...

Hi GG, Perhaps this will help: we earnestly ask and exhort you in the Lord Jesus that, as you received from us how you should conduct yourselves to please God and as you are conducting your selves you do so even more. For you know what instructions we gave you through the Lord Jesus. Clearly...

Who taught you this theory?

Thats pretty brave of you to admit on a public forum that you reject Scripture....

So if you don't adhere to the RCC teaches then WHO's teachings do you adhere to? Also, The Church condemns idolatry so any catholic committing idolatry is not adhering to Catholic teaching.

I have never been taught that either....

I wish it was that easy. Scripture says a whole lot more than just that on what one must do to be saved.

Thanks GG, Purgatory is a tough one for me also. The teaching of it makes sense though. We know thru Scripture that Nothing impure shall enter heaven. I know I won't be pure (sinless) when I die so it makes sense that there could/would be a purification process. The thing is we can't pick and...

You crack me up Taken......You should read the entire thread before you open your mouth and put your foot in it. ;) In a previous post I stated to @Enoch111 Ok....you believe that The Church teaches false doctrines. The response I got from enoch to that statement was a picture from a artist...

Cmon Enoch.... You are confusing the postion of The Church with the position SOME catholics and some local churches/charities take on immigration. The Vatican has made it clear it supports legal/lawful immigration. The Biships in the United States have also made their position clear: The U.S...

Lol...Hold on kiddo. Sooooo Kelly Latimore, an "artist" who creates controversial "art" created a picture from HER imagination and then Karna Lozoya, who is the Catholic University of America's vice president for communications, commented on the "art" and THAT IS YOUR EVIDENCE THAT THE CATHOLIC...

And still, no answer to the question: Who decides what a false teaching is? Just more ramblings about 18% alchol, magical prayer, Santa Claus an purgatory. It's a simple question. Patient Mary

Finally, we agree on something. You, a man, follow what YOU believe is "his guidance and teachings" from Him. You rely on you to convince yourself what the truth is and you believe that He is guiding you. Kind of like all the other false prophets and men who have led His sheep astray.

Lol...sooooo no one but the Apostles "know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven"? Even though Jesus explained his parables and we have his explanation of those parables in Scripture? Hmmmm......Your theory is interesting....and wrong.

Ok....soooo you have no evidence to prove what you are alleging. Just to be clear, I can't find any evidence of your allegation either so we are both in the same boat. So YOU should apply common sense which is if YOU have no evidence of an allegation then your allegation can't be...

Oh, but you do follow a man. You follow yourself. You tell yourself what the truth is and you follow it soooooo stop being so silly. If your not Catholic or Orthodox your Protestant. You can't change that accepted fact kiddo. Ok....you believe that The Church teaches false doctrines. That...
