    Is there salvation outside the Catholic Church?

    WRONG again . . . Scripture is CLEAR that born again people can fall away and LOSE their security . . . Romans 11:22 “See, then, the kindness and severity of God: severity toward those who fell, but God's kindness to you, provided you REMAIN in his kindness; otherwise you to will be cut off.”...

    Is there salvation outside the Catholic Church?

    Yup – and the Gideons could NEVER have done so ha Jimd it not been for the Catholic Church who wrote the NT and compiled and copied the Bible for centuries before the world ever even heard of “Protestants”, let alone “Gideons” . . . As for those Jews who started the Church – they were the first...

    Is there salvation outside the Catholic Church?

    They were still part of the Catholic Church. There was NO other form of Christianity. Try as you might - you can't change history . . .

    Is there salvation outside the Catholic Church?

    Differences I can live with. Lies, myths and fairy tales about the Catholic Church are another story . . .

    BreadOfLife ~ UNPROVEN CLAIMS..

    I DIDN'T make that claim - the Word of GOD did. JESUS told Saul who was persecuting His Church: Acts 9:5 "I am Jesus, whom you are persecuting" The Holy Spirit calls the Church the very FULLNESS of Christ (Eph. 1:22-23). If YOU don't believe these things - that's YOUR problem . . . WRONG...

    Is there salvation outside the Catholic Church?

    First of all - an image is not an "idol". An idol is something other than God that is worshiped. And, I'm NOT sure where you're getting your false information - but the Catholic Church has NEVER held to Iconoclasm - and actually deemed it a heresy. The fact that you reject history is...

    Is there salvation outside the Catholic Church?

    Look - if you want to live in denial, then be my guest. Before the East-West Split in the 11th century - there was ONE Church, ONE form of Christianity. After the 16th century - the Church splintered into what we have today: Tens of thousands of disjointed and perpetually-splintering factions...

    Isaiah 51:1-2 Look to THE ROCK from which you were cut and to the quarry from which you were hewn; look to Abraham, your father, and to Sarah, who gave you birth. For cryin' out loud - do your homework for once.

    Is there salvation outside the Catholic Church?

    Christians are falling away, period. Falling away "in faith" is an asinine term. Falling away is falling away, Einstein . . .

    Is there salvation outside the Catholic Church?

    More ignorance . . . Ummmm, the Apostles were part of the Church, Einstein. As for "those Gideons" - they werem't even founded until 1899. That's about 1900 years AFTER the Catholic Church's founding. "Those Gideons" wouldn't know Christ if NOT for the Catholic Church. Do your homework . . .

    Is there salvation outside the Catholic Church?

    Correct - the serpent wasn't for worshiping. The people screwed up - not God. How does this "condemn" the creation of statues?? THOUSANDS of people saw the Bronze Serpent. THOUSANDS of people visited Solomon's Temple where statues were in display. The argument FOR paintings but AGAINST...

    Is there salvation outside the Catholic Church?

    Matt. 16:18 And I tell you, you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my church, and the gates of hell shall NOT prevail against it. But, according to YOU - Jesus lied because Hell DID prevail for 1500 years. What a pathetic lack of faith . . .

    Is there salvation outside the Catholic Church?

    WRONG. You can't escape your past. If you are a Christian and you are NOT Catholic or Orthodox - you follow your Protestant Fathers. Actually - you practice a perversion of what THEY believed because many of your Protestant Fathers believed in Catholic teachings such as the Real Presence, the...

    Is there salvation outside the Catholic Church?

    ONE more time: YOUR Protestant Fathers would NOT know Christ had it NOT been for the Catholic Church. This is a fact of history. EVERY ONE of them was a Catholic Churchman who broke away. YOUR Protestant history has its roots in the Catholic Church - whether YOU like it or not.

    Is there salvation outside the Catholic Church?

    Spoken like a person who knows absolutely NOTHING about ancient Jewish culture. Women were considered chattel to a Jewish man. It was very much a man-centered faith and culture. It wasn't until the New Covenant that women were considered to be spiritually-equal. Gal. 3:28 There is neither Jew...

    Is there salvation outside the Catholic Church?

    Are they Christians? So am I. Changing the subject won't bolster your position. The fact remains that YOUR Protestant Fathers would NOT know Christ had it NOT been for the Catholic Church.

    And Abraham is the ROCK (Isa. (51:1-2) And Peter is the ROCK (Matt. 16:18) Does the Bible LIE - or do you simply reject it?? Peter was sent ONLY to the Jews?? WHO was Cornelius and ALL of the people in his household?? STUDY your Bible . . .

    Is there salvation outside the Catholic Church?

    The Lord called ALL Jewish males to circumcision and to be raised in the Jewish faith. Did the 8-day-old infants CHOOSE to do this - or was it on the faith of their parents?? STUDY your Bible . . .

    Is there salvation outside the Catholic Church?

    The Holy Spirit guides the CHURCH to teach all nations the Gospel. He doesn't guide each individual from nothing and teach them the Gospel. they heard if first from His Church. So, once again - YOUR Protestant Fathers would NOT know Christ had it NOT been for the Catholic Church.

    Is there salvation outside the Catholic Church?

    Nobody said ANYTHING about "worship". And the worship of images and statues has ALWAYS been forbidden in the Catholic Church. Sooooo, what's your point??
