    The Biblical Basis for Catholic Distinctives

    COVID?? You think that the Pope is "antichrist "because of his COVID policies?? What a desperately idiotic charge. Jesus promised that His Church would NOT succumb to the gates of hell (MAtt. 16:18). He DIDN't promist that evry leaders would make the right decision regardijng secular...

    The Biblical Basis for Catholic Distinctives

    And yet, it is Peter who Jesus singles out as the leader. If peter wasn't in charge - - Tell me WHY Jesus singled out Peter when He gave him the Keys to the Kingdom of Heaven (Matt. 16:18-19) if did not put him in charge. - Tell me WHY Jesus asked Peter and Peter alone to feed His lambs and...

    The Biblical Basis for Catholic Distinctives

    This is a common anti-Catholic whopper - based in the fact that the quote from Bellermine has been taken OUT of its proper context. When you read On the Authority of the Councils by Robert Bellermine - THIS is what he actually saus: "This is almost de fide, and is proved first of all from the...

    What is the…

    The 1st century document The Didache (Teachings of the Twelve Aposrtles) clarifies this point: Chapter 7. Concerning Baptism And concerning baptism, baptize this way: Having first said all these things, baptize into the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, in living water...

    The Biblical Basis for Catholic Distinctives

    Again - your peoblem is that you claim to come in the name of Christ preching the Word of God - yet what YOU are pproclaiming was NEVER taught by Jesus and is found NOWHER within the pages of the Biblie, which YOU claijm to be our "SOLE" Authority. The Bible is AN Authritative source - not the...

    The Biblical Basis for Catholic Distinctives

    Sooooo, baslically, you couldn't answer yet ANOTHER question. I asked you to show me where the Bible lists the Books that belong IN the Bible - and you failed. Good job . . ..

    The Biblical Basis for Catholic Distinctives

    What the Popes and Vaticans say?? And what's a "dire and grave" doctrine? And why do you keep attacking Protestants alongside Catholics - why YOU yourself are Protestant? Yout problem - a;though there are MANY - is that you believe in a perverted version of revisionist hisatory and are...

    The Biblical Basis for Catholic Distinctives

    WRONG. All men WILL be tested by His glorious truth - but it is NOT all contained in the Bible. Show me where the Bible lists the Books that belong IN the Bible. It's NOT there., my confused friend. That is part of HIS truth - but it was declared by the guardian of His truth, which is His...

    The Biblical Basis for Catholic Distinctives

    Catholics believe in the "Biblical" Christ. In fact - we taught the WORLD about the "Biblical" Christ. Unfortunately - YOU actually believe that Chrust is just a "Biblical" character. As Catholics - we're not foolish enough to pretend that th Church came out of the Bible. We know, as the...

    The Biblical Basis for Catholic Distinctives

    I just got home and read this nonsense and was about to write my rebuttal - then I noriced that @Illumiator had already done a masterful job in post #438. Anti-Catholics love to pretend that the Canon of the Bible was NOT declared by the Catholic Church in the 4th century - but you guys always...

    The Biblical Basis for Catholic Distinctives

    Afteer several attempts - it sounds like you just copy and paste the same mantra in every post but are not willing to have a conversation. That is NO way to evangelize. If you refuse to address the questions are are incapable of answering them - just say so and I'll move on.

    The Biblical Basis for Catholic Distinctives

    This is an extremely UNBIBLICAL view. Jesus never said to "get a Bible" and "learn Him for yourself." He commanded His disciples to TEACH all nations (Matt. 28:19-20) - NOT to give them Bibles so othey can learn for themselves. The Bible had not yet been written and compiled for another 300...

    Why the Bible?

    Thanks Mathhew. We need to look at history objectively and not with a revisionist slant. Many non-Catholics simply refuse to believe that the Catholic Church declared the Canon of Scripture and faithfully transcribed it down through the centuries simply because of their feelings about the...

    The Biblical Basis for Catholic Distinctives

    Oka - so back to my question: WHICH sect is correct? WHICH one is teaching the correct doctrines based on the correct interpretations of Scripture? By YOUR criteria - if there is confusioon because of competing doctrines - SOMEBODY has to be wrong - and SOMEBODY has to be right.

    The Biblical Basis for Catholic Distinctives

    There are literally tens of thousands of disjointed and perpetually-splintering Protestant sects that ALL teach different and COMPETING doctrines -based on the indicidual interpretations of each founder. Now - HOW did thids happen if YOU claim that ALL we need is the Bible??

    The Biblical Basis for Catholic Distinctives

    Yes, you keep repeating that mantra - and you keep dodging the inevitable question: When YOU read the Bible for YOURSELF and your neighbor reads the Bible for HIMSELF and you both come to opposite interpretations - WHO is right?

    Why the Bible?

    I just wasn't sure if you knew or ha read about some of this history - especially as it pertains to #'s 2, 3 and 4. Anyway - happy reading . . .

    Why the Bible?

    Some of it is a bit dry and intellectual - but most of it is easy to read. And for what it's worth - Graham was a non-Catholic when he wrote this. It's interesting to read this perspectuve.
