    The Doctrine of Purgatory in Catholic Biblical Perspective

    Careful – your lack of intellect is showing again . . . “YOUR conception” means when YOU were conceived – not when YOU got pregnant. “MARY’S conception” means when MARY was conceived – not when MARY got pregnant. If you know your Scripture and your Greek - and are honest (I’m NOT holding my...

    The Doctrine of Purgatory in Catholic Biblical Perspective

    Ahhhh, I see they brought in the “D” team. Time for a Bible and linguistics lesson, sparky . . . According to Luke’s Gospel, when the Angel visited Mary, Luke uses the Greek work Kecharitomene, to describe the angel’s greeting of Mary. Gabriel didn’t call her “Mary”, or “Highly favored one” -...

    This is an asinine interrogation. If you can't understand what "Mary's conception" means - I suggest you take a Biology course . . .

    The Doctrine of Purgatory in Catholic Biblical Perspective

    Scripture is indeed all true - it's just not all LITERAL. This seems to have escaped your limited intellect. Heaven and Hell are spiritual realms - not physical or astronomical ones. LEARN the difference . . .

    I believe I've already told you TWICE. Post #432 couldn't be ANY clearer. Are you really this dense - or is this an act??

    The Doctrine of Purgatory in Catholic Biblical Perspective

    Like I said before - if you actually believe that Hell is in Middle Earth with the Hobbits and Heaven is in the sky and stars - you can never understand an infinite and eternal God. You don't even understand that Scripture is BOTH literal and allegorical . . .

    The Doctrine of Purgatory in Catholic Biblical Perspective

    "Heaven" in this context is talking about the "heavens" - the sky, outer space, the stars, etc. It is NOT talking about the place where saved souls spend eternity with God, Einstein. I shouldn't have to explain this to you . . . Okay - Hell is not "IN" planet earth either, Einstein. This is...

    MARY'S conception - when SHE was conceived.

    The Doctrine of Purgatory in Catholic Biblical Perspective

    Mary was sinless from conception (Luke 1:28). I have debated this with MANY people here - including YOU - and you ALL throw Rom. 3:10 at me as "proof" that she couldn't be sinless. NOW, you are using Rom. 3:10 to show that YOU are righteous. This is a gigantic hypocrisy . . .

    The Doctrine of Purgatory in Catholic Biblical Perspective

    There are some 200 references quotes and allusions to the 7 Deuterocanonical Books in the NT. There is NO disputing that Jesus and the NT writers studied from the Septuagint. For example . . . Eph. 6:13-17 - The whole discussion of armor, helmet, breastplate, sword, shield follows Wis. 5:17-20...

    The Doctrine of Purgatory in Catholic Biblical Perspective

    UNREAL . . . What a gigantic contradiction. FIRST, you say that I am still thinking the "OT way" - yet YOU describe Heaven as Gen 1:8 describes the SKY. This is NOT talking about the Heaven of eternity - but the heavens (sky, clouds, starts, planets, etc). LEARN the difference . . . And NO -...

    The Doctrine of Purgatory in Catholic Biblical Perspective

    First of all - I find it both interesting and hilarious how Protestants - and even YOU - throw around Rom 10:3 to deny Mary's sinlessness - yet when it comes to yourselves, you're "perfectly righteous". Your hypocrisy NEVER fails . . . As for the rest of your insane diatribe - these verses...

    The Doctrine of Purgatory in Catholic Biblical Perspective

    Your edited Protestant Bibles stop at verse 30. The original Bible the Jesus and the Apostles studied from goes on for another 70 verses.

    The Doctrine of Purgatory in Catholic Biblical Perspective

    As I have stated repeatedly – where and how Purgatory happens is a mystery. It can’t take place in Heaven because there is suffering. It can’t take place in Hell because the person is eventually saved. For that matter – WHERE is Heaven?? WHERE is Hell?? As for your nonsense that you are...

    ONE more time: Jesus prayed repetitiously (Matt. 26:44). The Angels in Heaven pray repetitiously (Rev. 4:8). Catholics pray repetitiously. NO difference, Einstein . . .

    The Doctrine of Purgatory in Catholic Biblical Perspective

    Actually, in context - Baal worshipers at that time used to babble out loud trying to conjure up their god. We read about them in 1 Kings 18:26-29, where the pagan prophets on Mount Carmel tried to invoke Baal all day long, repeatedly calling on his name and performing ritual dances. This may...

    Soooooo, Jesus, who prayed repetitiously (Matt. 26:44) is a "heathen"??
