All worldly ways, false religions, mysticism, false philosophies and paganism originated in Babylon. They were proud and arrogant and wanted to to build a tower to the heavens and be like God. This is why God confused their language and they were scattered and their ways a d beliefs were...

Explained that already - you can't grasp it: We are in the "already but not yet" state of salvation It is a done deal but not fully consummated.

When did Jesus speak of the unforgivable sin? When the Pharisees accused Him of healing by the power of Satan. They accused the Holy Spirit of being Satan. So that us it. Obviously if you are dead, it is too late to ask for forgiveness for any sin. If you retained a rejection of Christ up until...

Your present state of salvation. Listen, don't really want to continue. You seem to be a on a warpath mode - "Attack the Protestants"

That is where you are dead wrong. We are living in the "already and not yet" state of salvation. It is state between the physical and spiritual realms. There is a tension between the two where things in God's realm are already done but in ours, not yet. We live in our physical realm. Christ...

By Bible says we are all priests and saints. Yes. It is important to learn from those who have walked with God, been educated, as I have for many years, to learn the basics. But God saves and converts the soul. He uses priests and pastors and the rest of us to witness and minister, but the Holy...

Christ's own words tell us we are saved by faith! The HOLY COUNSEL of GOD on the subject of Salvation trumps every counsel of man who has come together! For those of you who like KJV only: Ephesians 2:8, 9 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift...

The Holy Apostolic Council was wrong about a few things - Luther corrected them.

Sounds like a trick question. Jesus is the WORD. He is God, no limitations there. As far as the written word, the Bible, that is not all of God's truth, for all the volumes on the planet could not contain God's knowledge. He just gave us enough to digest. The Bible is sufficient and we also have...

Good post, but a no win situation and opening up a Catholic can of worms. "Blessed" simply means happy. She was happy, proud ti be of service ti God and very special. Mary was chosen, she was a descendant in a particular blood line as well, so was Joseph. God chose her before she was born so in...

Oh gee, how about the hundreds of priests who come dressed in sheep's clothing and molest little boys and girls. "Come to me ... I will bless you!" By their fruit you will know them! Teaching errors is bad enough, but leading children into darkness ... well, it would be better if they weren't...

Not religion, just the condemning allegations you posted. I often throw in a little humor sometimes. You can dish it out but you can't take it!

That's all correct. I think Jesus was warning us of future false spiritual prophets who may be claiming to be Him. "THERE He is ..." "Really, did he DESCEND FROM the CLOUDS AS HE ASCENDED ... with His angels in His glory?" I would also like to submit that it could be a secular prophet, an...

I guess you'll have to count most Protestants anathema! There should be a special section for us in Purgatory ... that is such a big load, it will take awhile. Say a few Hail Mary's for us will ya and ask a few of those Saints as well to chip it - we need all the help we can get.

True faith perseveres through it all! That is a message given in the Parable of the Sower. Those whose seed was planted in shallow soil or rocky soil wither and die when tribulation comes. They don't produce fruit either.

How could one forfeit his soul if they were never offered salvation/ eternal life? If you were born a reprobate, then how could you forfeit salvation, when God never intended for you to have it and therefore never offered it to you? Furthermore if you were born reprobate, you could not be judged...

You do realize that the tetragrammaton is YHWH. Yahweh was used probably 1000 years before Jehovah was verbalized, which was manmade. "The Masoretes, who from about the 6th to the 10th century worked to reproduce the original text of the Hebrew Bible, replaced the vowels of the name YHWH with...

That was just an amplified version of James 2:24. This goes hand in hand with "By their fruit you will know them!" A mature Christian produces fruit, good deeds, is obedient. Let's switch fruit with the word faith: By their faith you will know them. Ummm ... Not really recognizable until they...

"Wasn’t our ancestor Abraham 'made right with God by works' when he placed his son Isaac on the sacrificial altar? Isn’t it obvious that faith and works are yoked partners, that faith expresses itself in works? That the works are “works of faith”? The full meaning of “believe” in the Scripture...

Seed that is planted in fertile soil and is continually nourished matures and produces fruit. Other seed is scattered on rocky or shallow soil ... These seeds may start to grow but when the trials and tribulations in life come they wither and die. So you will find people who claim they believe...
