    The Church The Papacy Says You Should Join

    You have transcended from total ignorance to utter stupidity with these comments. The Church never sold Indulgences. It was an abuse - and it is well-documented that this was not an edict from the Church. And, as for your repeated claims of molestation, do I need to keep reminding you of the...

    They were looking for CHRIST in the OT Scriptures because they Apostles were telling them that the prophecies had been fulfilled and that He had come. Jesus explained to the 2 men on the Road to Emmaus the Scriptures that pointed to HIM (Luke 24:27). Regarding the Bereans - it says absolutely...

    Complete unsubstantiated nonsense. Ireneaus, writing in the latter part of the 2nd century llists ALL of the Popes from his time going all the way back to Peter in his treatise Against Heresies. Do your homework . . .

    I see you never tire of spewing falsehoods. I am now openly challenging you to substantiate "millions", Einstein. I have read ridiculous statistics anywhere from 10 million to 150 million from ignorant anti-Catholics like yourself. the funny thing is - there weren't even "hundreds of millions"...

    Everything the Catholic Church teaches is supported by Scripture. The Bible states, as I have shown repeatedly, that WHATEVER Christ's Church ordains on earth will also be ordained in Heaven . . . Matt 16:18-19 And so I say to you, you are Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church, and...

    2 Thess 2:15 "Stand firm and hold fast to the Traditions you were taught, EITHER BY an ORAL STATEMENT - OR BY a letter from us." Luke 10:16 Whoever listens to YOU listens to ME. Whoever rejects YOU rejects ME. And whoever rejects ME rejects the ONE who sent ME." 2 Thess. 3:6 "Now we command...

    First of all - YOU have to show me where the BIBLE says that everything we believe in has to be written in the Bible. CAN you show me that?? The Holy Spirit doesn't guide everything. He doesn't guide anybody into wrongdoing or sin. However - Jesus guaranteed the Holy Spirit would guide His...

    Sooooo, I have asked that ONE of you show me where the Bible teaches Sola Scriptura - and so far, you've ALL failed. Instead, all I get are angry "goodbyes" and "I'm done with you's" instead of ACTUAL Scriptural evidence for your claims. Listen - if you are going to elevate something to a...

    It is utter nonsese to call the Sacraments "beliefs of their own". And your desire that the Church "change" its teachings to accommodate the protests of anti-Catholics is ludicrous. This is precisely what has gone one within Protestantism for 500 years - constant change of doctrine. The...

    WRONG. The point was being erroneously made that since Jesus stated, "It is written" - that this was some kind of "proof" of Sola Scriptura. This is nonsense, as I have shown by the examples I listed. Scripture is Authoritative - but it is not our ONLY Authority, as the following verses AMPLY...

    Yes, but the point is that they never relied on Sola Scriptura - and neither should Christians. The Bible refutes this man-made fallacy.

    No - the Authority of the Church if GOD-given, not man made. Christ Himself transferred this supreme Authority to His Church - that WHATEVER it binds or looses on earth will also be bound and loosed oin Heaven (Matt. 16:18-19, Matt. 18:15-18, Luke 10:16, John 16:12-15, John 20:21-23). If you...

    Absolutely. Also, just because one person who is a member of the Church has an opinion - that doesn't mean that this is what the Church teaches. I'm sure you understand that as well.

    One big problem for you, Phoney - the Jews NEVER promoted Sola Scriptura. They understood that the Word of God was revealed ORALLY and in the written form. Here are a few examples of this ORAL Tradition . . . Matt. 2:23 - the prophecy "He shall be a Nazarene" is ORAL TRADITION. It is not found...

    And there you go again making FALSE accusations and citing spurious and secondary sources and online rumors. You don't even know how to debate. It's like debating with a 2-year-old. - and not a very bright one, at that. - Cite PRIMARY sources for your claims. - Don't just give the name of a...
