Prayer to Mary and the saints in Heaven is simply a request for them to pray FOR us. Pull out your dictionary and look up the word "Pray". This what you'll find: Merriam-Webster’s Collegiate Dictionary Pray verb \ˈprā\ Full Definition of pray transitive verb 1: entreat, implore —often used as...

Then you don't understand the parable. The FIRST seed that fell on the path - was NEVER received. The seed that fell on "rocky" ground WAS received with joy - and they lasted a while before they fell away during hardship. You cannot "fall away" from Christ if you NEVER had Him to begin with...

Is there something wrong with you?? ALL of the verses I presented were written AFTER the Resurrection - by YOUR own admission in post #58. ALL of the verses are written to BORN AGAIN Christians.

Didn't YOU say that the teachings about "enduring" were only for the JEWS in regards to the Mosaic Law? The passages I presented show that this teaching is for EVERYBODY who is in Christ.

And you know their hearts? You know that they weren't born again? Only GOD knows the heart . . .

NOT according to the Bible . . . 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.” Paul is warning the faithful to REMAIN in God’s favor or they will lose...

Again - it's NOT about the Father rejecting the son. It's about the son rejecting the Father. Nobody is "un-soned" when they fall away from God. They have chosen to divorce themselves from Him. They have every chance to come back until the day they die.

Then you didn't actually read the passage. Jesus stated clearly that the person RECEIVED the Word (Him) with joy - and then fell away. This is not a person who rejected the Word or simply let it pass on by. It is a born again person who fell away . . .

100% opinion - with ZERO Scriptural proof. Mary WAS and IS the Mother of Jesus, the Son of God. Try again . . .

WHO said anything about being “un-soned”?? Did God “stop” loving Israel because THEY were unfaithful to HIM?? No. The Scriptures tell us that God hates DIVORCE (Mal. 2:16) – not Israel. He didn’t cut THEM off – they cut HIM off. It’s the same in the New Covenant. Nobody can snatch us out of...

Another thing – remember that Jesus taught that believers CAN fall away in the Parable of the Sower: Luke 8:13 "And the ones (seeds) on the rock are those who, when they hear the word, receive it with joy; but these have no root, they believe for a while and in time of temptation fall away."...

Then you'll have to explain why BOTH the author of Hebrews and Peter speak of those who have an Epignosis of Christ being in danger of losing it all (Heb. 10:26-27, 2 Peter 2:20-22). "Epignosis" isn't just a knowledge or intellectual assent. The Greek terms for that are Oida or Gnosis...

This topic comes up about every 3 months - and the answer is the SAME: We can absolutely lose our secure place with God - and the Scriptures are CLEAR about this. In order to believe the man-made invention of OSAS - you must completely ignore the language used Scripture that warns us about...

Oh - and what happened to you showing me where the Bible says that those in Heaven are "DEAD" as YOU put it?? Chapter and verse, please . . .

In post #92 - YOU made the following false claim about the Catholic Church: ". . . the false teaching of -worship of statues & images of Mary & the dead RC saints" YOU claimed that this is a TEACHING of the Church. Now - I want you to show me this official "teaching" from the Catechism. If you...

Ummmmm, and where is the Biblical proof for Sola Scriptura that you claim??

No - a picture is NOT worth a thousand words. A picture is USUALLY taken out of context. Is THIS picture worth a "thousand words"?? I asked you for official teaching because YOU made the idiotic claim - and now you CAN'T substantiate it. Good job . . .

STILL waiting for a list of the names of some of the people that the Catholic Church has "led to Hell". Can you give me some names - or was that just more idiotic rubbish?

Until YOU can show me that Mary is NOT Jesus's Mother - you have LOST this argument. She IS His Mother, according to Sacred Scripture (John 2:1, 19:26, Acts 1:14). He IS God, according to Sacred Scripture (Psalm 110:1, Isaiah 7:14, Isaiah 9:6, 1 Timothy 3:16, Matthew 1:23, Mark 14:61-62, Luke...

Ummmmm, while you're shaking your head - can you show me where the Bible states that the Bible is our "Sole Authority"?? Please ALSO address what I have asked you in past posts - which you have been running away from: Since YOU brought it up - show me the official Catholic teachings on -...
