    Is there salvation outside the Catholic Church?

    Yes. You made this claim back in post #1337. I told you that I would expose you every you lie . . .

    Is there salvation outside the Catholic Church?

    Again – you’re using the same logic as the Non-Trinitarians. NOT every verse of Scripture says the exact same thing about the exact same subjects. And just because there are more verses that talk about the necessity of faith does NOT diminish the fact that there are several verses that make...

    Is there salvation outside the Catholic Church?

    The Thief on the Cross was an exception. God can and DOES make exceptions. Not everybody has the opportunity to be baptized. Like the Thief, they are blessed with the Baptism of Desire.

    Is there salvation outside the Catholic Church?

    So there are some priests who are alcoholics – and YOU think its because they’re consuming too much consecrated altar wine during mass?? What an asinine observation. Apparently, you’ve never attended a mass. The priest literally takes a sip from the chalice. Soooo, by your moronic logic – if...

    Is there salvation outside the Catholic Church?

    Then you don’t know how to interpret Scripture. If you are pitting verses against each other – you’re missing the point. You can take 200 verses about the importance of faith on salvation. HOWEVEVER, you cannot simply discount the dozen or so that state the necessity of Baptism on salvation...

    Is there salvation outside the Catholic Church?

    And you ignorantly believe that Catholic priests get drunk during communion?? You actually believe that the tablespoon or so that they consume will make them intoxicated?? Jesus instituted the Eucharist at the Last Supper – using bread & WINE. He didn’t instruct the Apostles to guzzle down...

    Is there salvation outside the Catholic Church?

    No - that's what the BIBLE teaches (John 3:5, Mark 16:16, Acts 2:38, 1 Pet. 3:21) - and what the Church has ALWAYS taught since the Apostles. Justin Martyr As many as are persuaded and believe that what we [Christians] teach and say is true, and undertake to be able to live accordingly, and...

    Is there salvation outside the Catholic Church?

    Leviticus 10:8 and Isaiah 28:7 aren't condemnations of drinking. Jesus Himself MADE wine at the Wedding at Cana - and LOTS of it. What makes you think that drinking is forbidden?? You have a LOT to learn about how to interpret Scripture . . .

    Is there salvation outside the Catholic Church?

    He did a lot of things. I'm not sure why you're asking. He issued the Edict of Milan in 313, which legalized Christianity. He called for the convening of the Council of Nicaea in 325. Am I supposed to do a blow-by-blow of his life after 312? What is this supposed to accomplish?

    Is there salvation outside the Catholic Church?

    That's a trick question. He may have done MANY things to advance Christianity - but NOT as a Christian. His ONLY accomplishment AS a Christian was to be baptized.

    Is there salvation outside the Catholic Church?

    Then, if YOU believe that the Holy Spirit is a hypocrite - or that He contradicts Himself - then YOU'VE invented a different god for yourself than the God of Scripture. Good luck with that . . .

    Is there salvation outside the Catholic Church?

    Digging a hole? He was a pagan who didn't get baptized until his deathbed. That's what I've been saying all along. Not sure what you're point is . . .

    Is there salvation outside the Catholic Church?

    Actually, it's more than just a "chain of command." Paul is instructing his readers to make their marriages as foundational as the Church. This is why Christ was always comparing the Church to a Bride and himself as the Groom. Christian marriage is to resemble the Church - and vice versa.

    Is there salvation outside the Catholic Church?

    Some DO - but it's NOT a prerequisite. As I stated earlier - the Covenant with Noah didn't involve blood, And you STILL haven't told be the origins of how the covenant of marriage is a PROTESTANT invention - or how it requires the spilling of blood. Surely you have an explanation . . .

    Is there salvation outside the Catholic Church?

    Nice try. Eph. 5:22-33 assures us that in Christ, marriage is a Covenant.

    Is there salvation outside the Catholic Church?

    Ahhhh - why didn't you just say "Pseudo-Gospels" or "Apocry[hal works"? I thought you meant the infancy narratives from the 3 Synoptic Gospels. Probably the only one referenced would have been the Protoevangelium of James. This is where we get the name of Mary's mother (Anne).

    Is there salvation outside the Catholic Church?

    WHOSE blood was spilled when God made a Covenant with Noah?

    Is there salvation outside the Catholic Church?

    Because he is guided by the HOLY SPIRIT to ALL Truth (John 16:12-15). And the Holy Spirit doesn't screw up . . .

    Is there salvation outside the Catholic Church?

    WHERE do you get your bizarre information?? NOT all covenants involve blood. God made a Covenant with Abraham. WHOSE blood was spilled? Since YOU said that Protestants invented marriage Covenants - WHOSE blood do YOU spill??

    On his DEATHBED. He didn't convert until he was dying. Check your history, pal . . .
