    What is the one true Church?

    Typically, the Sacraments of Confirmation and Holy Communion are conferred on children at the age of 7 or 8 years.. Because the children are receiving three sacraments during these years, Reconciliation, Confirmation and Eucharist, Sacramental Preparation is a 2-year program.

    What is the one true Church?

    Since you guys will not talk about the good things that the Catholic have done in modern times I guess I will post a few things. The Modern Catholic church does have a focus on marriage and the family.... The first Catholic school in America opened in Philadelphia in 1783. Throughout the 19th...

    What is the one true Church?

    My point is that there is no requirement in the Bible for a wedding ceremony. I cannot show you something that is not there. That is how you formulate your religious beliefs.

    What is the one true Church?

    Anytime they talks about a wife it a marriage without a wedding ceremony. Read the bible. Now we would not be having this discussion if the Bible required a wedding ceremony. You should find that. The topic would be at least different if the bible said King David and Bathsheba had a wedding...

    What is the one true Church?

    The Pope did not make statements on marriage along the way.... And "marriage appears in it highest form in the teaching and practice of the Catholic Church! Oh my gosh! It was one of many reasons for the Protestant reform. I wish it was true. But please....please have at it! Produce some...

    What is the one true Church?

    You have not even began to! You still need to find where the Bible requires a wedding ceremony. You still need to find where the Catholic Church required wedding ceremonies before the 1500's.

    What is the one true Church?

    What is the one true Church?

    Correct. When you study history you cannot say....Ya it happened and here are the details.....if there are no details. You can say you suspect or you believe....but no proof. I do not treat the absence of evidence as evidence.....I have no problem saying we do not know or I do not know or I...

    What is the one true Church?

    I keep telling people to look all this up....I want them to look it up. A person that is not telling the truth is not going to do that. You still need to find where the Bible requires a wedding ceremony. You still need to find where the Catholic Church required wedding ceremonies before the...

    What is the one true Church?

    There were definitely female saints and martyrs in the first 300 years of Christianity. Paul definitely used females and married couples in his ministry. Roman vs Christian marital arrangements.... 1. Romans married a legal wife....she may have little to do with his sex life....heterosexual or...

    I go to a lot of different churches including Catholic churches and I love Christians. But most have a lot of false beliefs for instance..... I do not like the Host communion....I do not like crackers and grape juice.....I prefer real bread and wine. I do not do confession.....Me and Christ...

    What is the one true Church?

    No harm no foul. The division between the Catholics and Protestants is something I have to deal with all the time. And I would think that Christ would not be happy with it either. The facts can be harsh and the Catholic Church was harsh in a time period that was harsh and complicated. But the...

    What is the one true Church?

    The Apostles did not forget.....it did not happen yet. God nor Christianity died after the biblical era.

    What is the one true Church?

    Sort of.....Vicar of Christ....Supreme human authority over Church affairs? Be careful of the term cult.....it is kind of an erroneous term.

    What is the one true Church?

    1559, kind of after the fact. It is kind of what leaders when the stuff hit the fan. Malleus Maleficarum is not a scam it is part of Catholic Church history and is well documented. The Malleus Maleficarum was a torture manual that was produced by the command of the Pope. So your defense of...
