Thank you Nancy. Without the miracles He performed would you have faith Jesus was who he said he was?

Thank you.....You make some very good points. Without the miracles would you have faith Jesus was who he said he was? If so, on what basis? Mary

Thank you. That would be cool (un-ice the Ark). My family and I went to The Ark Encounter in Kentucky. Have you been? Do you totally disregard the STURP conclusion or do you believe some parts of it? Have you found a study done by someone else that I am not aware of that is irrefutable in...

You make (quote) some very good points. Thomas, one of the Apostles, did not believe that Jesus had risen from the dead. It was the MIRACLE of Jesus being alive after being crucified that made Thomas believe. Once again, it took a MIRACLE for him to believe....not that he just started believing...

Do you participate in the taking of bread and wine at your church? Curious Mary

Really? Proves that he was using a symbol? At no point does scripture (or the historical writings of the Christians who walked and talked with the Apostles) say that it was a symbol. It's simply not in the bible. It is only the words of the men of the Reformation 1,500 years after the death of...

You are right. I am among those who believe that once the bread/cup is blessed it becomes Jesus.....Because that is what Jesus said....This IS my body/blood....Do this in remembrance of me. Why don't you believe and do what Jesus said? Is it because of your lack of faith? How is it that any...

IF??? There is no IF in this statement: This IS my body given for you; do this in remembrance of me. Nor this statement: The cup of blessing which we bless, is it not the communion of the blood of Christ? The bread which we break, is it not the communion of the body of Christ? Oh ye of little...

Yes, you did write some words but none of it makes sense. I will try to decipher it the best I can and here is my best guess: Your theory is that Revelations 18:4 is referring to The Catholic Church even though (also according to your theory) there was no Catholic Church at the time Revelations...

Hi BG, I am always curious how someone comes to a different conclusion than I do with the same evidence in front of them. I believe the STURP team's scientific study of The Turin is fascinating. They can't even explain how the image got onto or into (VP8 imaging) the clothe which compels me to...

Hi Amadeus, I generally agree with you. We do believe by faith. How did we obtain that "faith" that Jesus was the Son of God? Short answer: The testimony put forth in Scripture about what the Apostles saw that made them believe. The Apostles needed signs to help them believe and the first of...

HI GG, It's easy to discover in Scripture why for 2,000 years The Church has believed it was His body and blood.....Because He said it was::rolleyes: For the bread of God is he who comes down from heaven and gives life to the world.” They said to him, “Sir, give us this bread always.” Jesus...

Hi Willie, ".... refueling with the sacraments." What does that mean? Curious Mary

Hi Willie, A Protestant is anyone who follow the principles of the Reformation. I don't know what an ordinary person is when it comes to understanding the written word. When I was teaching college a good majority of my students struggled with anything beyond basic sentences in a history book...

Oh....Now we are moving onto Ireland as evidence? :rolleyes: Soooo here is what it boils down to with all your dancing and weaving and dodging.......you just can't acknowledge the FACT that Catholicism is NOT in decline? You want to point out the places it is in decline and disregard all the...

Lol.....OK CoreIssue!! You NOW want to talk about Catholicism in the United States ONLY and pretend you didn't say "Catholicism" (singular which means world wide). That's fine.....I didn't expect you to admit you miss-spoke. Pride is a hard thing to overcome. Scripture clearly sets up a...

Your original statement just said "Catholicism". Did you mean Catholicism in the US? Did you miss-speak? Mary

Good, we are looking at the same data. And as I hope you can plainly see the "World Data Over Time" for the "Catholic Population" has remained steadily at 17-18% from 1970-2016. Soooo provide evidence of your steep decline statement. Thank you in advance...Patient Mary

Hmmmm.....steep decline? Not according to my research: FAQ Please provide evidence of your statement. Mary

Hi, The Church does not teach that "time equals proof". The Church teaches what Scripture says in 2 Thessalonians 2:15 and 1 Corinthians 11:12. You and your ilk reject your own Christian traditions. Scripture tells us to hold fast to them. You believe/practice the traditions that started...
