No - and neuther do YOU. The Catholic Church NEVER sold indulgences OR blessings to avoud Purgatory. This iwasa a abduse by some in the 15th century - a practice that was condemned by the Church. Here's a question for YOU: Do you remember the Commandement about NOT bearing false witness??

Jesus promised that the Holy Spirit would guide His CHURCH to all truth (John 16:12-15) - and NOT each individual. He made this promise to His inner circle at the Last Supper and NOT to the crowds. YOUR false idea about being "personally guided" into confusion is the reason we have tens of...

WRONG. Peter spoke - and James agreed with him (v. 14). The ENTIRE Council of Apostles sent the letter: “So WE ALL agreed to choose some men and send them to you . . .” “With OUR dear friends Barnabas and Paul . . .” “Therefore WE are sending Judas and Silas . . .” “It seemed good to the...

No - I simply took you out to the historucal woodshed . . . That's code for: "I'd better shut up now . . ."

He's also selectively Sola Scriptura - but ONLY when it comes to Peter. The word, "leader" is never used in Scripture as it pertains to Peter, so he COULDN'T be the eader. Nevermind the fact that the word "Bible" is never used in the Bible - nor is the word "Trinity", even though the doctrine...

No - you got caught with your foot in your mouth, so you owent fisjing for sources to get information for something about which you have NO idea. You just happened to pick a bad source.

WEAK. The Roman guards at the tomb had a job to do - and PART of that job was to quell the Jews who had insisted on a 24 hour guard. Pilate would have had them put to death if they deviated from his orders. Hisotry tells us that he was a brutal man who was feared by his men. The women at the...

The Protestant site, Christian Research Institute’s Hank Hanegraaff gave a highly-publicized rebuke of the History Channel in the 90’s for the exact reasons I gave. The fact that YOU believe the History Channel to be a credible source for Church history speaks VOLUMES about your ignorance...

You're obviously NOT a student of history. Christians didn't start being persecuted until the reign of Nero - after the burning of Rome. That's because you're ignorant. THAT'S who was after the Apostles - NOT the Romans.

Thank you for that "History channel" version of Church history - which is NEVER accurate and ALWAYS biased against the Church. They also get the history of the Bible wrong, the Life of Jesus wrong - and everything else that pertains to Christianity. The History Channel claims that Jesus and...

Ummmm, the Romans weren’t even a factor yet when it came to the early Christians. That came LATER – but you actually have to be a student of history to know that. And IF we’re going by what the Bible tells us – there was NO evidence to suggest that the Jews were hunting the women.

Then you DON'T understand the Gospel. THIS is the problem with people like you who interpret for themselves, forsaking the Church's Authority - and the reason there are so many perpetually-splintering factions. Complete confusion . . .

So, in YOUR judgement, Jesus was a LIAR. He commanded us to LOVE everyone (John 13:34) – yet YOU believe He taught us to HAYE our parents, in direct violation of God’s Commandment to HONOR them., That’s about the most idiotic thing you’ve said so far . . . Lett’s see . . . - Annanias and...

Doesn’t matter of YOU disagree. Jesus isn’t telling us to “hate” our parent in this verse – otherwise, He would be telling us to violate God’s Commandment about honoring them (Exod. 20:12). You’re simply wrong here . . . REALLY?? Is it the killing, torture, burning at the stake or sex...

They were ALL part of the ONE Catholic Church. They weren't "different" Churches - just different locations. Today, we call them Dioceses and Parishes. Acts 9:31 talks about how the Early Church grew throughout the region. The language used here describes the Catholic Church: “Then the...

Apples and Oranges. “Gate your father and mother” is an obvious comparison to the love we must have for God – and NOT a commandment to “hate” anybody. “Be perfect” is an obvious admonishment to STRUVE for perfection. “I will give YOU the keys to the kingdom of Heaven” is an almost verbatim...

This says absolutely NOTHING about WHY Peter was singled out.. They ALL fell. They ALL ran away and hid. Why didn’t Jesus reinstate ALL of them that morning Nonsense. He was putting Peter in charge of bringing the others back. What part of “But I have prayed for YOU, Simon, that YOUR faith...

That’s an impotent response. You’re saying that what Jesus told Peter conveyed Supreme Authority – but He was just “kidding”?? And I’ve given it to you multiple times: Jesus singled out Peter – and Peter alone to feed His lambs and tend His sheep (John 21:15-19). Jesus said that He prayed...

Jesus giving the Keys to the Kingdom to Peter in Matt. 16:18 is an almost verbatim fulfillment of the promise God made to Eliakim, when He gave him the Keys to the House of David in Isa. 22:20-22. The "Keys" symbolize SUPREME AUTHORITY. Peter was absolutely in chare because the Bible says so...

The named adelphoi of Jesus were the children of the other Mary at the foot of the cross and her husband, Alphaeus/Clopas - not Joseph.
