It is not The Catechism that is why it’s called the Converts Catechism. Not sure why that is so hard to understand. Yes, it can be relied upon IF it quotes directly from The Catechism of the Catholic Church and does NOT give opinions on it’s interpretation. Does it do that? It appears to be...

Nope, it is not The Catechism not matter how much you want it to be so YOU can be right. Nope, the church didn’t lead you astray. You were just flat out wrong. Why can’t you admit that? Why do you feel the need to blame someone else for your mistake? It seems....to the best of my...

Sooooo no answer? After all you interjected yourself into the conversation. The least you could do is TRY and answer the question instead of being flippant.

I sincerely apologize.....re-reading your post I see I missunderstoood what you were saying.

Nice diversion......

Hmmmmm.......your personal library is over 1,000 books but you have never studied this matter.

And once again....You said that the Catechism ‘admits’ to this change. Can you quote from the Catechism this alleged admittance so we can discuss what the Catechism says instead of what you believe it says?

Not a diversion kiddo. It’s a fact that what you said was not true. Now you can’t even admit that you were wrong. *sigh*

Yes, to the best of our knowledge he didn’t get baptized. Scripture doesn’t say anything about the good thief’s life BEFORE his crucifixion. He could have been a baptized Christian. Soooo your “LOL” flippant comment was unnecessary.

LOL......NO...Not “every” believer is saved by faith and grace. Scripture makes it clear that is NOT true but there is no need to go there. Your theory that baptism is symbolic is a 500 year old Protestant teaching that not all Protestants believe. SOME still adhere to the 2,000 year teaching...

Hmmmm......Satan believes Christ is who he says he is and has faith in him. I wonder why Satan Doesn’t do good works and is saved. Mary

You let them.....The Church doesn’t: Matthew 18:17

Hi Bobby Jo, I agree with you that Paul pointed out Peter’s hypocrisy. Being a hypocrite is not practicing what you preach. Peter was preaching the word...he just wasn’t following the word; he was a hypocrite. Sooooo, once again, that analogy has NOTHING to do with who decides what the truth...

Yes, The Church teaches that. The good thief is a perfect example. He recognized Jesus for who he was but didn’t have the opportunity to do works or, to the best of our knowledge, get baptized. None the less on that day, by the grace of God, he was with Jesus in paradise. He was saved by faith...

Hi Renniks, Scripture makes it clear that faith without works is dead. That means someone can have faith but if they don’t DO the works their faith is dead. Scripture separates the two. Faith does NOT automatically lead to works. Even the devil has faith and believes that Christ is Lord but...

Thank you. 1 Corinthians 14:29 (in context) has NOTHING to do with admonishing one for a false belief or interpretation of Scripture. Paul didn’t rebuke Peter on the matter of doctrine or interpretation of Scripture. He rebuked him on a personal decision (not to eat with certain people). So...

Hi Renniks, You say baptism saves no one....1 Peter 3:21 disagrees with you. I do agree with you that multiple verses say that belief is required. Sooooo are we to pretend that the other verses in Scripture (that I pointed out) are not in Scripture? If we pretend they are not there then YES...

Hi Renniks, Paul rhetorically asked the same question which has your answer: Is not the cup of thanksgiving for which we give thanks a participation in the blood of Christ? And is not the bread that we break a participation in the body of Christ? He also warned us that whosoever shall eat...

Hi Bobby Jo, You partially quoted me which, in effect, dodges the real question I was asking. You theory is that we are entitled to believe whatever we want and that we have free choice. The question is: According to Scripture is it ok for those that believe abortion is ok to believe that...

Hi Bobby Jo, Using your theory that we have free choice and we are entitled to believe whatever we want what are we to do with the 'christians' who have used that free choice and believe that Scripture supports their belief that abortion is OK with God? Is that choice a good choice?
