    Good Morning ~ Hope you had a very pleasant Thanksgiving Day. I have no doubt Mary was highly favored, and chosen for a "particular" service unto the Lord God, a service that was "applicable" to her "only". As well I have no doubt "others" were highly favored, beloved, and chosen for...

    Is The Rapture A Literal Event?

    I think we all can get a bit side tracked at times being wrapped up in our own passion of Walking with God. We don't all hear, read, learn, study the exact same things, at the exact same time, or for the exact say amount of time, thus our "Distance" on our walk with God, varies. I agree with...

    I also use Caps and bold type. My intent is to stress a point I am making. Often I use Caps, as it is easier, since all of my responses are from my phone, without the ease of a computer. BOL uses Caps and bold particularly often to stress his namecalling, cutting down and hissy fits when people...

    The Doctrine of Purgatory in Catholic Biblical Perspective

    LOL ~ That is a Lie! Kecharitomene; Full of Grace So? That has been addressed. No one disagreed that Mary was full of grace. Then you "attempt" to DEFINE "Full of Grace", by claiming it means: Naturally Born Sinless. That is a Lie; and would make Scripture a lie. Then you "attempt" to...

    See...if you disagree, out comes the name calling....(that is an old trick, that is supposed to make you look unworthy to be considered to be correct)...but what does not appear is a Scriptural verification for their claims. Glory to God, Taken

    The Doctrine of Purgatory in Catholic Biblical Perspective

    So? Not a secret Mary was being informed of a very significant thing the Lord had chosen Her to do. Only those in HEAVEN have been given a great measure of Gods Grace? Only Mary was given a highly important role to fulfill? And Serously, ONLY those IN Heaven have "that KIND of endowed...

    The Doctrine of Purgatory in Catholic Biblical Perspective

    "Just a spirit" ? Sounds so insignificant... Jesus is the Word of God. Jesus is the Christ, and the Christ IS the POWER of God. Jesus is the Christ, and Christ IS the WISDOM of God. Jesus IS Spirit...and was NEVER a "HUMAN". Are you completely unaware of the Power of spirits to APPEAR in a...

    I don't REQUIRE anyone to DEFEND what I say. I don't REQUIRE anyone to AGREE with what I say. I agree with Scripture. I disagree with what Catholic Teach, and some Protestants have "adopted" from the Catholic teaching. "THEY" know and believe what YOU DO? You are hysterical. You have spent...

    You want an "INTELLIGENT" argument against Catholic teaching? Then...Present a Catholic "TEACHING" that is Verified in SCRIPTURE! The Rejection of Catholic Teaching, IS much of WHAT Catholic Teaching hinges ON, which IS NOT in Scripture....It is MADE UP Doctrine, from Ideas, Philosophies...

    Is The Rapture A Literal Event?

    Perhaps people do stumble over understanding this verse. The verse I mentioned was: John 3: [13] And no man hath ascended up to heaven, but he that came down from heaven, even the Son of man which is in heaven. Uh huh, aware of those scriptures and what they mean. John 3:13 is clear. NO MAN...

    Your comments have already revealed the Truth, and now you want to DENY what you said? Funny. You would rather NOT be found in heresy by your church, than be found in the Truth by God. Facinating where your FEAR is settled. Glory to God, Taken
