And it id because of Jesus Christ alone that we are able to do the goo works that God prepared for us in advance to do (Eph. 2:10). If those good works aren't an essential element of your faith, along with trust and surrender - then it's worthless. If your faith is just belief - if it's just...

Works are not a “byproduct” of faith. They are an essential element of it. Faith without obedience/works is just “Belief” – just like the demons (James 2:19). That’s why James calls it “DEAD” (James 2:26). We’re not created in Christ Jesus for mere belief. We are created in Him – “…for good...

The BLIND leading the blind . . .

Repeating cheap anti-Catholic slogans doesn't make them "true". It just shows your ignorance - and your willingness to bear false witness. And speaking of salvation - LIARS will have no part in the Kingdom of Heaven (Rev. 2:18) . . .

Faith includes obedience, which includes works. THIS is what Scripture teaches (Matt. 25:31-46, Eph. 2:10, Gal. 5:6, James 2:14-26). You CANNIT have true faith is all you do is "believe". The Bible clearly shows us the folly of that Protestant invention . . . James 2:19 You believe that God is...

And you're just another typical anti-Catholic LIAR. I OPENLY-CHALLENGE you to show me those teachings from the Catechism. And, try NOT to stick your other foot in your mouth . . . And the ONLY way this works is if you accept that "Faith" includes surrender and obedience - which includes works...

@Taken is just another anti-Catholic troll who vomits out the same nonsense - even after being repeatedly corrected.

It was the Catholic Church who provided the Gospel to the WORLD. As for Faith "Alone" - no, we don't believe in that because it is NOT taught in Scripture OR Tradition - as Protestants teach it. Only in this sense can one preach "faith alone". Faith = Belief + Surrender/Obedience (Works)...

They can certainly be clueless . . .

Well, thanks for trying – but you didn’t prove that Scripture is our “SOLE” Authority from the Scriptures themselves. As to the false, 16th century Protestant invention of Sola Fide – you didn’t provide any Biblical evidence for that, either. You bas your doctrinal beliefs on OPINIONS of your...

Not true. The cup is available to ALL communicants As for a YOUR standard of a “definitive declaration” being necessary for believing in the things of God – show me where the Bible “definitively declares” – Sola Scriptura (Scripture ALONE) Sola Fide (Faith ALONE) A Pre-Trib “Rapture” Limited...

Funny that the historic Christian Church NEVER taught what you posted. There is also a major flaw in that explanation that most Protestants overlook: Jesus usually explains what He means to His disciples - as in the Parable of the Sower (Matthew 13:36-43) and the Parable of the Weeds (Mark...

Ummmm, since when does "Memory" or "remembrance" mean "metaphor"?? You remember things that are real - not imagined. John 6:54-55 Whoever feeds on my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up on the last day. For my flesh is true food, and my blood is true drink.

I figured you'd respond with a worthless comment like that. Whereas, I presented actual published evidence for my argument - all YOU have are your anti-Catholic opinions. I suggest you pick up a copy of Pedophiles and Priests, which includes actual FBI, police and insurance statistics

Read the posts, Einstein. I already destroyed that myth back in post #191.

"So many"?? A minute fraction have been accused of wrongdoing. On the other hand - molestation in the Protestant sects is OUT of control. According to the book, Pedophiles and Priests, by Protestant author, Philip Jenkins - the problem in YOUR factions dwarfs the problem that took place in the...

As I stated - Ignatius of Antioch was a lifelong student of the Apostle John and was pas Bishop by Peter. Nice try . . .

I WROTE that post on that thread. It's from an article I wrote 10 years ago. Are you saying that I can't reuse it? The article I wrote is based in part on a book written by a Protestant minister, "Where We Got The Bible - Our Debt to the Catholic Church" by Rev. Henry G. Graham.

No - it's a window into the 1st century Church, showing how the Christians of the day practiced their faith. Denying History doesn't make you a "Scripture scholar" - it just makes you a sad little revisionist . . .

Wanna bet? Time for a History Lesson . . Did you know that had it not been for some of their contemporaries like Philip Melanchton - your Protestant Fathers would have also deleted Hebrews, Jude, Revelation. YOU talk about “adding” to the Word, but you don’t have a problem with Martin Luther...
