    The Doctrine of Purgatory in Catholic Biblical Perspective

    Sooooooo, let me get this straight. You anti-Catholics constantly deny Mary’s sinlessness based on Rom. 3:10, which says: “There is NONE righteous”. The Catholic position on this verse ALL along on has been that it is not talking about “everybody” because babies cannot sin. You anti-Catholic...

    I'm not the one who is claiming that the Ethiopian Eunuch repented. @David Taylor is. Pay attention . . .

    No, you haven't. Show me the verse that shows he repented. Just because you claim he did doesn't make it so. You must show the Scriptural evidence.

    The Doctrine of Purgatory in Catholic Biblical Perspective

    No - YOU implied that he "repented". Show me the verse that even implies this. You have added to Sctipture what is not there . . .

    The Doctrine of Purgatory in Catholic Biblical Perspective

    According to BOTH passages of Scripture I presented - you're dead wrong. Neithe passage mentions YOUR imposed prerequisite of age OR repentance. STUDY your Bible . . .

    The Doctrine of Purgatory in Catholic Biblical Perspective

    Sooooooo, where is the "implied" evidence of the Ethiopian Eunuch's repentance, hmmmm? Acts 8:36-38 As they traveled along the road, they came to some water and the eunuch said, “Look, here is water. What can stand in the way of my being baptized?” And he gave orders to stop the chariot. Then...

    The Doctrine of Purgatory in Catholic Biblical Perspective

    Really?? Since when do anti-Catholics teach “implied” Scriptural teaching?? Mary’s Perpetual Virginity is STRONGLY implied by Luke 1:34. Anti-Catholics reject this. Mary’s sinlessless is STRONGLY implied in Luke 1:28. Anti-Catholics reject this. NOW you want me to accept a so-called...

    The Doctrine of Purgatory in Catholic Biblical Perspective

    This is precisely what Baptism in Christ does, sparky . . . Ezek. 36:25-27 I will sprinkle clean water on you, and you will be clean; I will cleanse you from all your impurities and from all your idols. I WILL GIVE YOU A NEW HEART AND PUT A NEW SPIRIT IN YOU; I WILL REMOVE FROM YOU YOUR HEART...

    Great. Uhhhhhh, then, perhaps YOU can show m where the Ethiopian Eunuch “repented” prior to being Baptized. This should be easy for you. Chapter and Verse, please . . .

    The Doctrine of Purgatory in Catholic Biblical Perspective

    So it’s official – you can’t read. I already covered this, Einstein . . . Baptism is the New Covenant FULFILLMENT of Circumcision in the Old Covenant. Whereas only boys were circumcised in the Old Covenant – there is neither male NOR female in Christ – so everybody gets Baptized in the New...

    The Doctrine of Purgatory in Catholic Biblical Perspective

    If you don’t understand that Baptism is the fulfillments of circumcision – and that girls are now included – then you are FAR more Scripturally-bankrupt than I originally gave you credit for. In the Old Covenant, women did not hold the place that they do within Christianity. Do you NOT...

    The Doctrine of Purgatory in Catholic Biblical Perspective

    No, but Baptism IS. The parents make a Covenant with God to raise the child in the faith – JUST like the Jews did when they circumcised their 8-day-old boys when they entered the Covenant with God. Baptism is the fulfillment of OT type that was Circumcision. Paul refers to it as “circumcision...

    The Doctrine of Purgatory in Catholic Biblical Perspective

    WOW. 1280 words of absolute gibberish. I think that’s a record for you. Not sure how many “LOL’s” were in there – but I’m sure there were plenty . . . I think the only thing we’ve learned in your latest psychotic tirade is that, on top of your Docetist heresy – you ALSO agree with the...

    The Doctrine of Purgatory in Catholic Biblical Perspective

    No, I have provided Scriptural evidence - and illustrated that the Early Church from the 2nd Century and beyond practiced Infant Baptism as an APOSTOLIC practice. Okay – sooooooo, show me where the Ethiopian Eunuch repented before he was Baptized. You won’t find it because it DIDN’T happen...

    The Doctrine of Purgatory in Catholic Biblical Perspective

    These are non-answers in light of the Scriptural evidence I've presented. Besides - you were never able to furnish proof of your claim that Acts says you MUST have faith prior to being Baptized.

    The Doctrine of Purgatory in Catholic Biblical Perspective

    WRONG. You are adding to Scripture what is NOT there. Nowhere does it even imply that the Ethiopian Eunuch repented or came to faith. It simply says that he asked to be baptized. Your prerequisite for Baptism has been proven wrong . . .

    The Doctrine of Purgatory in Catholic Biblical Perspective

    Can you show me where Acts says you must have faith prior to being Baptized?? Chapter and Verse, please. While you're at it - show me where the Ethiopoan Eunuch in Acts 8 professed faith prior to being Baptized. Happy hunting . . .

    The Doctrine of Purgatory in Catholic Biblical Perspective

    Uhhhhh, once again – show me where the entire household of Stephanas was baptized because of their faith. The text does NOT say this. Entire households were baptized, as in the case of Cornelius, Stephanas and the Philippian Jailer. According to the ECFs, the APOSTOLIC practice of baptizing...

    The Doctrine of Purgatory in Catholic Biblical Perspective

    And by the same token – there is NOTHING in Scripture that says Infants should NOT be baptized. However – it DOES says that ENTIRE households were baptized. Entire households include children of ALL ages. Can you show me where it says they shouldn’t be Baptized?? Chapter and Verse, please . . .

    Is There Different Beliefs Among Catholics? Chrislam Movement?

    And they can say what they want. It’s a silly, baseless argument. The reality is that they broke away from the Church. The mere fact that there are literally DOZENS of disjointed and splintered sedevacantist factions is clear evidence of this. Nice try . . .
