    The Doctrine of Purgatory in Catholic Biblical Perspective

    Sure she was. But you don't want to know anyway - so why bother explaining it?

    The Doctrine of Purgatory in Catholic Biblical Perspective

    That is a mystery because Scripture is silent on the matter. Once we are dead and being judged - we aren't really bound by time at that point anyway.

    The Doctrine of Purgatory in Catholic Biblical Perspective

    Well - after reading your posts this morning - I was going to say that I was GLAD to see that we could finally have a civil discussion - with different points of view that was completely devoid of the usual anti-Catholic horse manure you engage in. Unfortunately - your posts got progressively...

    The Doctrine of Purgatory in Catholic Biblical Perspective

    That’s a completely inaccurate explanation of Catholic teaching. – and a poor defense of both Sola Scriptura and Sola fide. BOTH of those Protestant doctrines are man-made inventions from the 16th century – and completely devoid of Biblical support. So much so, in fact that Luther had to ADD...

    The Doctrine of Purgatory in Catholic Biblical Perspective

    And yet, I haven't dodged a single issue or question . . .

    The Doctrine of Purgatory in Catholic Biblical Perspective

    Actually, I agree with you – up to a point. We ARE being purified on earth and we ARE being sanctified. HOWEVER – nobody is truly righteous. Aren’t you Protestants the ones who are fond of throwing Rom. 3:10-11 at us Catholics when we talk about Mary’s sinlessess: Rom 3:10-11 "There is no...

    The Doctrine of Purgatory in Catholic Biblical Perspective

    Well, this is another misconception about Purgatory or Final Purification. This process is not for those who are obstinate and refuse to repent. It is for those impurities in our life that we may not have recognized or had the epiphany to realize that they were wrong. Have you ever had a bad...

    The Doctrine of Purgatory in Catholic Biblical Perspective

    Precisely the kind of moronic response I expected from you. I didn’t think you’d be able to defend your anti-Biblical doctrines – but I just wanted everybody here to see you dodge the issue. Nice job . . .

    The Doctrine of Purgatory in Catholic Biblical Perspective

    Gee - sort of like Eternal Security, Sola Fide and Sola Scriptura. Kinda like that, huh? Yikes . . .

    The Doctrine of Purgatory in Catholic Biblical Perspective

    Actually - you're both so wrong. Purgatory has nothing to do with Hell. Any sort of intelligent discourse is wasted on you . . .

    The Doctrine of Purgatory in Catholic Biblical Perspective

    Can you point me to the post where I said that Purgatory takes any amount of "time"? Who said anything about "one day" - or ANY amount of time??

    What God said to me about Abortion

    Soooooo - your mother was a giant dirt clod - or wash she flesh and blood? As I indicated before - either you're not very bright - or you are just playing possum. Those who know the Word of God understand what it is speaking allegorically and symbolically - and when it is speaking literally. -...

    What God said to me about Abortion

    Once again – you pervert Scripture to fit your weird parameters. You can’t tell the difference between allegorical or poetic text and literal text?? You honestly believe that Job didn’t have a mother – that God shaped him from clay like Adam?? Either you’re not very bright – or you’re just...

    What God said to me about Abortion

    This is a completely asinine understanding of Scripture. You are assuming that everybody is created in the same fashion as Adam – from the dust of the earth. Adam was a blob of clay until God breathed life into him. Unfortunately – you fail to understand that people since then aren’t created...

    The Doctrine of Purgatory in Catholic Biblical Perspective

    Stop wasting your time. @Ezra and @Taken are so blinded by anti-Catholic hatred that they refuse to understand the Biblical concepts of Final Purification. It’s worse than ignorance because it’s a refusal to accept the truth. They keep comparing it to Hell – where a person cannot be saved –...

    The Doctrine of Purgatory in Catholic Biblical Perspective

    The problem with your view is that verse 13 specifically points to this being an event taking place at Judgement – NOT during our lifetime. 1 Cor. 3:13 “. . . each one’s work will become manifest, for the Day will disclose it, because it will be revealed by fire, and the fire will test what...

    Pay to Pray eRosary from the Vatican

    Okay – that’s fair enough. In post #344 – you stated: “You need to care for your host the same way they had to care for their idols.” This implies that the consecrated Host is an “idol”. To a Catholic, who believes the Eucharist to be the Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity of Christ – this is an...

    Pay to Pray eRosary from the Vatican

    You were misrepresenting my Catholic faith. Intelligent conversations begin with charity. Uncharitable conversations beget reproval.

    Pay to Pray eRosary from the Vatican

    Why is it that you all feel that you can post all of the heinous filth and lies about the Catholic Church – yet we’re just supposed to suck it up and keep quiet? Like the proverbial crooked politician who breaks the law with impunity yet becomes “indignant” with those who expose him for it –...

    Pay to Pray eRosary from the Vatican

    You compare MY faith with pagan worship - yet I am the one who is being "offensive"? Hypocrisy in its purest form. I merely pointed out your error . . .
