    Yet, you can't point to a single thing I've said that s incorrect.

    Can Priests Forgive Sin?

    That’s quite a confession. You don’t come off as “obnoxious” as much as you do sad and hopeless. If I was as unsure as YOU are of what I believed in about Christ and His Church – U woulkd porobably go through life as an agnostic . . . Funny how certain anti-Catholics are abiuyt the "errors"...

    JUSTIFICATION: Catholic Vs. Protestant, Part #1

    It's not my job to convince you of anything. I'm here to expose lies and the liars that tell them - not to force my beliefs on anyone.

    JUSTIFICATION: Catholic Vs. Protestant, Part #1

    As I have stated ad nauseam - the original question I asked was "Can you define faith?" The fact that you guys are so terrified to attempt a definition speaks VOLUMES about the "hope" that lies within you . . .

    JUSTIFICATION: Catholic Vs. Protestant, Part #1

    No - I'd say you've lost your ability to listen. You have to actually understand what you're listening TO in order to lose your tolerance for it . . . That's a Biblical description - NOT a definition.

    JUSTIFICATION: Catholic Vs. Protestant, Part #1

    You can claim that until you are blue in the face - but you have YET to prove it. MY original challenge was for another poster to define "faith"., When they refused to do so - I quoted 1 Per. 3:15 - which ius the appropriate verse fo the situation. 1 Pet. 3:15 But in your hearts revere Christ...

    Can Priests Forgive Sin?

    WRONG. The verses above make absolutely zero sense UNLESS you see that it is coming from somebody in Authority. 2 Cor. 5:18-20: “And all this is from God, who has reconciled US to himself through Christ and given US the ministry of reconciliation, namely, God was reconciling the world to...

    JUSTIFICATION: Catholic Vs. Protestant, Part #1

    Same ol' impotent response. Here's a challenge: If it's just "Catholic mush" - how 'bout trying to actually refute my Biblical argument? I'll waith right here for your response . . .

    Can Priests Forgive Sin?

    WRONG.. I laid out a rock-solid Biblical case for the Ministry of Reconciliation in podt #74. Until you can address this - you're just bloeing hot air . . .

    Can Priests Forgive Sin?

    And JESUS said this to the leaders of His Church on the night before He was crucified: John 16:12-15 “I have much more to tell you, but you cannot bear it now. But when he comes, the Spirit of truth, he will guide you to ALL truth. He will not speak on his own, but he will speak what he hears...

    Can Priests Forgive Sin?

    WRONG. The practice of confessing our sins to a priest is based directly in Scripture. Three times in the Gospels (Matt. 16:19, 18:18 and John 20:23), we read where Jesus gave the Apostles the power to FORGIVE sins or to hold them bound. This is NOT a something that Jesus took lightly. In John...

    Can Priests Forgive Sin?

    We can forgive sins against US - not against others.

    JUSTIFICATION: Catholic Vs. Protestant, Part #1

    WRONG. It's the proper ise. You don’t have to be a “walking dictionary” in order to define “Faith” EVERY Christian should know to define faith. If you can’t define it – then you should re-think your theology . . .

    JUSTIFICATION: Catholic Vs. Protestant, Part #1

    And apparently, Mr. College Degree – you skipped over the Council of Jerusalem in Acts 15 where the Judaizer controversy was settled. As to God's command for Isrealites to be circumcised - that was UNDER THE LAW - which Jesys FULFILLED (Matt. 5:17). Finally - as for James being Jesus’s...

    JUSTIFICATION: Catholic Vs. Protestant, Part #1

    I’ve always had contempt for lies - and all evil. So should YOU . . . Psalm 97:10 Let those who love the LORD hate evil, for he guards the lives of his faithful ones and delivers them from the hand of the wicked.

    JUSTIFICATION: Catholic Vs. Protestant, Part #1

    WHICH James? The son of Zebedee or the relative of Jesus (the Less). WHERE does it say that James taught them to circumcise Gentiles? Where does it say that either one of them was a Judaizer? The men from Antioch may very well have come to this belief on their own. You should know that there...

    JUSTIFICATION: Catholic Vs. Protestant, Part #1

    This is absolute nonsense. James NEVER said any such thing at the Council of Jerusalem, In verse 19 – it is JAMES that recommends NOT circumcising the Gentiles. YOU are simply looking for reasons NOT to accept his Epistles because it contains things that YOU reject. Ir is the inerrant Word of...

    gay christians?

    WRONG. Whereas, capital punishment has been revisited by the Church – it does NOT forbid it. The Church does NOT approve of some of the reasons for the death penalty but does NOT rule out ever using it justly. From the Catechism of the Catholic Church: CCC 226: Assuming that the guilty party’s...

    gay christians?

    On post #359 – YOU responded to my following statement: “The Catholic Church has NEVER done an about-face on a SINGLE doctrinal matte in 2000 years - unlike virtually EVERY Protestant faction has.” YOUR response was “Baloney”. I asked you to prove your statement by debunking what I said - and...
