    Is there salvation outside the Catholic Church?

    In your infinite ignorance – you are conflating “Covenant” with “Sacrifice”. Without the shedding of blood – there is no remission of sins. A Covenant, by definition has NOTHING to do with the shedding of blood. SOME Covenants have involved blood – but others haven’t. God made a COVENANT...

    Is there salvation outside the Catholic Church?

    A couple of problems with that statement. First of all – Jesus told the Thief: "Truly I tell you, today you will be with me in paradise." OR, did He say: "Truly I tell you today, you will be with me in paradise." There was no punctuation in the Greek, so it all depends on where you insert the...

    BreadOfLife ~ UNPROVEN CLAIMS..

    According to Strong’s, the Hebrew word used in Scripture for “Trespass” is אשמו, which is defined as: 1) guilt, offense, sin, guiltiness 1a) offense, sin, trespass, fault 1b) guilt, guiltiness 1c) compensation (for offense) 1d) trespass or sin offering

    BreadOfLife ~ UNPROVEN CLAIMS..

    Yes. A trespass is a transgression and a transgression is a sin. However, it doesn't apply in mere circumstance unless the will is involved.

    Is there salvation outside the Catholic Church?

    No – I’m not calling Isaiah a “Liar”. I’m saying outright that he never prophesied that it would rain at the Crucifixion. I’m saying that you have falsely interpreted his words by twisting them to mean what you WANT them to mean. And once again – you have dodged the question about the...

    Is there salvation outside the Catholic Church?

    Ummmmmm, YOU’RE the one who proudly stated that Protestants were the ones who “first” taught that marriage was a Covenant – then you couldn’t tell me WHOSE blood was spilled in the marriage Covenant. WHY us that?? Sooooooo – if YOU claim that ALL Covenants require the spilling of blood – WHOSE...

    Is there salvation outside the Catholic Church?

    The ONLY sins you were ever “required” to confess to a priest are mortal sins. It was even that way when YOU were a little girl. Venial sins have NEVER been required to be confessed to a priest. This is a PRIME example of what I mean when I tell you that you are VERY ignorant of ALL things...

    Is there salvation outside the Catholic Church?

    Ummmmmm, first of all – Scripture NEVER states that it rained at the Resurrection. In fact – I don’t even know if one single tradition that point to this. YOUR insistence that it DID rain, just to cover your position that the Thief “HAD” to be water baptized is silly. I think you’ve seen...

    Care to LIST those "immoral" teachings??

    Is there salvation outside the Catholic Church?

    And therein lies your dishonesty – or Scriptural ignorance. Take your pick . . . Even if is WAS a sin according to the Law – the Law was FULFILLED by Christ. The Law contained statutes that were mere SHADOWS of what was to come. The reality, however, is found in CHRIST (Col 2:16-17). Don’t...

    Is there salvation outside the Catholic Church?

    Not at ALL. However, what you say doesn’t cover the millions of babies murdered by abortion. As I asked you before – do you believe that THEY burn in Hell for eternity because they weren’t Baptized?? OR – are they exceptions? As for believing what Christ taught as opposed to what His Church...

    Is there salvation outside the Catholic Church?

    And you should pray that God isn't as wooden and literal as YOU take His word. The Thief on the cross is an exception. He was kind of "busy" and didn't have time to be baptized - yet Christ told him that he was saved based on his faith. Baptism is the norm - but God DOES make exceptions - and...

    Is there salvation outside the Catholic Church?

    I wouldn't count out the idea that it may have rained at the Crucifixion. However - NOT everything we believe as Christians is explicitly stated in Scripture. For example - nowhere is the Trinity mentioned - yet it is one of the basic tenets of Christianity. We also never read the word...

    Is there salvation outside the Catholic Church?

    Yes, I believe he is a truly elected Pope. No reason to think otherwise. He's not my favorite Pope by any means, but he has not taught heresy. But, then - I'm a John Paul the Great fan . . .

    Is there salvation outside the Catholic Church?

    I don’t know who gets the award for “Most Dishonest Poster” – YOU or Taken. This is an absolute LIE. I never said that some things that were sins before are “no longer” sins. A Levitical priest drinking in the Tabernacle wasn’t a sin. It was a PROHIBITION. The sin was disobedience – which is...

    Is there salvation outside the Catholic Church?

    Believe it or not – I’m enjoying our conversation . . . With that said – I think you are under a couple of erroneous assumptions. The Church is not “perfect” – nor is the Pope. In fact, the Pope is not infallible. He is ONLY considered to be infallible in matters of teaching faith and morals...

    Is there salvation outside the Catholic Church?

    WHO told you that Catholic priests were under the same Mosaic Laws as the Levitical Priests?? Have you NOT read what Christ said?? Matt. 5:17 "Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to FULFILL them. Paul also wrote: Col. 2:16-17...

    Is there salvation outside the Catholic Church?

    Actually, this has already crossed my mind – and I have come up with 3 scenarios . . . a) He is just another anti-Catholic, hurling as much garbage as he can-hoping that something will stick b) He’s just trying to get a rise out of me. c) He’s really, REALLY stupid. After conversing with...

    Is there salvation outside the Catholic Church?

    Actually - we’re not. Not until we’re ready to make a commitment. Belief is NOT enough. We learn this much from James when he writes: James 2:19 You believe that God is one. You do well. Even the demons believe that and tremble. Do you want proof, you ignoramus, that faith without works is...

    Is there salvation outside the Catholic Church?

    Once again – your moronic attempts to twist the Scriptures and paint Catholic priests in a bad light fails on several levels. First of all – NONE of the cases you listed had anything to do with the priest sipping from the Chalice during Mass. The average amount of wine poured into a chalice...
