Yup – HE completes our faith. That’s why HE prepared the works that are a necessary component of our faith FOR us in ADVANCE (Eph. 2:1) - that we can't take credit for. As the Holy Spirit assurs us through James’s pen – you CAN’T have faith without works. Leave EITHER one out – and you have...

STILL not ready? That's what I figured. Take your time - I'm not going anywhere . . .

Suuuurrre . . . Lemme know when you're equipped to deal with the following Scriptural torpedos of your man-made Calvinist fairy tale of "OSAS" . . . Romans 11:22 “See, then, the kindness and severity of God: severity toward those who fell, but God's kindness to you, provided you REMAIN in his...

WRONG. James is defining what REAL faith is. He is explaining that works aren’t simply an “after-effect” of faith – but an essential component of it. THIS is why he differentiates “Belief” from “Faith – even though YOU can’t. Funny how you have an opinion on James 2:19 – but you run like a...

Your understanding of Scripture is as empty and vapid as your understanding of Catholic teaching. The Bible is clear that Baptism is a requirement for salvation (Mark 16:16, John 3:5, 1,Acts 2:38, Pet. 3:21). However, God CAN and DOES make exceptions, as in the case of the Thief on the cross...

Why do you LIE with such impunity? Don’t you fear God?? Don’t you know that the Kingdom of Heaven will NOT include liars (Rev. 21:8)?? I NEVER said that Protestants did NOT differ in doctrine and that you differed “only” in practice. This is a flat out LIE of your own making. I merely said...

More of your ignorant manure . . . As I have told you about a dozen times now - SOME within the Church, like Johann Tetzel were selling Indulgences. THEIR sins do not represent the ENTIRE Church – any more than YOUR sins represent YOUR entire sect. I’m sure there are people in YOUR sect who...

I've absolutely heard of revisionist history - and I'm witnessing it right mow. As I have educated you several times now - the Catholic church NEVER sanctioned the selling of Indulgences. Not only does Luther NOT claim that the Church did this - he doesn't mention ANY document, declaration or...

You can throw whichever verses you want at me. It's ALL a desperate cover-up of YOUR lie that the Catholic Church officially decreed the selling of Indulgences. Remember - I didn't goad you into this topic. YOU brought this up ALL on your own - and now you can't dig yourself out of this LIE...

A witness sees and hears. A witness is not a paperweight. Besides, there is precedent for "dead" saints (Moses & Elijah) being alive and aware at a little Biblical incident known as the Transfiguration (Luke 9:28-36). And, as I stated earlier - Rev. 5:8 shows those in heaven interceding on our...

The Catholic Church STILL deals with Indulgences - but it is not now nor has it EVER been a matter of doctrine. It's a matter of discipline. The matter of "history" that involved Luther was the SELLING of indulgences by men like Johann Tetzel. You're ignorant of history - and you got CAUGHT in...

NONSENSE. Just look it up online. EVERY document ever decreed by the Catholic Church is readily available online for EVERYONE to see. EVERY great saint and every criminal - every great deed and every misdeed. It's ALL there. If you can't find a document that says what YOU claim - it's because...

then, perhaps YOU can correct me - AND the Holy Spirit, speaking through James, Einstein. James 2:24 You see that a person is justified by works and NOT BY FAITH ALONE. Take your time. I'll wait right here . . .

It's not the SOLE meaning Otherwise, there would be NO reason for the author of Hebrews to remind his readers that they are "surrounded" by this "cloud of witnesses". Context - always look at the CONTEXT . . .

Another post of desperate ad hominem - and another dodge. As I said before - consider yourself Scripturally-spanked . . .

Then SHOW me the teaching about selling Indulgences - from ANY point in history. Otherwise - just admit that you lied.

HOGWASH. YOU have as much “access” to Catholic documents as I do as they are ALL online. The Catechism is ALSO online. The plain fact of the matter is that you WON’T look for the proof because you KNOW I caught you in another LIE. It is a LIE to say that the selling of Indulgences was ever an...

Then you should have NO lroblem showing me the official Church decree that promulgated the selling of indulgenslces. Take your time - I'll wait right here . . .

Whether or not you believe I answered it “adequately” is irrelevant because I’ve addressed and debated this issue on SEVERAL posts with you. I showed you the accompanying verses that show the CONDITIONS of that everlasting life – and YOU haven’t been able to “adequately” refute those. On the...

WRONG. The Catholic Church has never been in the business of selling Indulgences. This was an ABUSE of certain individuals like Johann Tetzel in Germany. This practice was condemned by the church – but was NEVER sanctioned. The onus, therefore, is on YOU to show me the official Catholic...
