Another impotent excuse from another angry little anti-Catholic. You couldn’t answer my Scriptural destruction of your man-made OSAS fallacy from the very first time I presented it to you. Now you use Proverbs 26:4-5 as an excuse not to give a reasoned Scriptural response – even though you are...

Easy. Heb. 3:14 states explicitly: We have come to share in Christ IF indeed we hold to our original conviction firmly to the very end. “IF” is the key word in this verse. Matt. 10:22 says in NO uncertain terms: And you will be hated by all for my name’s sake. BUT the one who endures to the...

Thanks - I've been here all along. I've been stuck on a couple of other threads.

Catholics petition fellow members of the Body of Christ to pray FOR us. We ask each other here on earth - and those in Heaven. Rev. 8:5 shows the elders in Heaven interceding on our behalf and TAKING our prayers to God. Rev. 8:4-5 shows the Angels in Heaven doing the same thing. Question for...

Their corrupt flesh expired - but they are MORE alive that YOU are. They been made perfect in Christ - you haven't. You're still being worked on (sanctified). Rev. 21:27 says that NOTHING imperfect can enter Heaven. Was Moses "dead" when he spoke with Jesus at the Transfiguration? OR - is...

I couldn't agree with you more. You FINALLY understand that there are CONDITIONS to everlasting life - and you listed some of them (in RED). Matt. 10:22 and you will be hated by all for my name's sake. But the one who endures to the end will be saved. Heb. 3:14 We have come to share in Christ...

Sooooo, you can’t stick to the topic of the discussion. Gee – what a surprise . . . You’re responding to a conversation about salvation and OSAS with an asinine post about “plastic Marys”. If you can’t address the fact that I’ve annihilated the entire OSAS argument – just admit it and let...

Remember what John said about the teachings and works of Jesus: John 21:25 Jesus did many other things as well. If every one of them were written down, I suppose that even the whole world would not have room for the books that would be written. Now, that’s obviously hyperbole – but you get the...

You're correct about Stephen. He is said to be "full of grace" (khar'-ece) in Acts 6:8. Strange that the KJV renders this word as "Faith". Anyway, this is not the word used for Mary oi Luke 1:28. "Kecharitomene" has much deeper implications, as I explained earlier, because it describes a...

You just can't stay away because you're obsessed . . .

I’m assuming that since she’s MY granddaughter - she is a Catholic. I would remind her what she was raised knowing – that she was saved at Baptism when she was an infant (John 3:5, Mark 16:16, Acts 2:38, 2 Pet. 3:21). I would also remind her that since we are flawed humans with a free will...

I’ll dumb it down for you like I did for one of your equally-ignorant minions on another thread . . . Eph. 2:8-10 For by grace you have been saved through faith; and this is not your own doing, it is the gift of God— not because of works, lest any man should boast. For we are his workmanship...

I wasn’t trying to argue with you – I was simply correcting the poor translation of “highly favoured”. That is a FAR too simplified translation of “Kecharitomene”. As for Mary’s significance – it’s not ME who is making a big fuss about her – it’s GOD. HE is the one who chose to make her...

Who said anything about “adding” to God’s grace?? So much ignorance – where to begin? Okay, I’ll dumb it down for you . . . Eph. 2:8-10 For by grace you have been saved through faith; and this is not your own doing, it is the gift of God— not because of works, lest any man should boast. For we...

Actually - Mary is called, "Kecharitomene." The Greek word is "Kecharitomene" that Luke used in his Gospel (v.1:28), is the perfect passive participle and indicates a completed action with permanent result. It translates, “completely, perfectly, enduringly endowed with grace.” This indicates...

He is referring to Luke 11:28, which is actually a reference to the mother of Jesus: Luke 11:27-28 As he said these things, a woman in the crowd raised her voice and said to him, “Blessed is the womb that bore you, and the breasts at which you nursed!” But he said, “Blessed rather are those who...

It doesn't say it anywhere in Scripture. That is a post 16th century, man-made fallacy.

They're not MY opinions. It's Scriptural truth - and 2000 years of Christian teaching.

Suuuuure you are. You're obsessed . . .

So, you’re STILL having a hard time with the Biblical concept that Faith without works is not simply an “inactive” faith as YOU would try to have us believe. The Word of God tells us that it is NON-EXISTENT (Dead - James 2:26). You’ve perverted God’s word by minimizing what true faith actually...
