Because the Church I belong to is "The Catholic Church." You will not find the title "Roman Catholic Church" as an official title of the Church ANYWHERE in ANY official document of the Church. There is NO such thing as "The Roman Catholic Church." There is the Roman/Latin RITE. So, when you...

There were ALL sorts of erroneous Bibles being copied. One, which is referred to as the "Blasphemous Bible" omits the word "Not" from the 2nd commandment, rendering it as "You shall take the name of the Lord your God in vain." Another flawed text had Adam and Eve wearing pants (breeches) made...

Then I need for you to show me where my post on the numbering of the Ten Commandments goes "against" the teachings of my own Church. CAN you do that?? As for the use of "Roman Catholic Church" - it was a derogatory term invented by the Church of England during the time of Henry VIII. Any use...

Paul says NOTHING about receiving the Lord repeatedly. He is warning against FALSE prophets who preach a different Christ. This is apples and oranges . . . Soooooo, Jesus was unable to perform a miracle?? Your lack of faith is ASTOUNDING . . . First of all - that's NOT what I asked. I asked...

Receiving Jesus or the Holy Spirit isn't a one-time event. It SHOULD be a lifetime FILLED with such events. Whenever we, as Christian stumble into occasional sin - we come back repentant and "re-fill" our tanks, so to speak, with the Holy Spirit and God's grace. If you're NOT doing this -...

Thank you for posting those irrelevant verses. You may as well have posted the Parable of Lazarus and the Rich man - because that one has nothing to do with what we were talking about, either . . . Surprisingly enough - you ARE right about one thing: Bread and wine are NOT the Christ. They...

There is no such thing as a perfect ANYTHING - except for God. However - my answer was anything but "vague". YOU won't make it to Heaven if you are disobedient. You can "believe" all you want - but the proof is in your obedience (Matt. 7:21). Remember - even the DEMONS believe (James 2:19)...

Ummmmm, where did I call you a name?? What's your IQ, Rollo??

First of all - your use of "Romanists" is stupid - but I'll ignore it so I can destroy your point. "Made NO effort to educate"?? Preaching and celebrating mass, praying over the sick, marrying people, baptizing them - this is "NO effort"?? My FAVORITE thing about your posts, Rollo is that...

THANK YOU for proving my point. The word used in this passage is "Epignosis": Romans 1:28-32 And even as they did not like to RETAIN God in their KNOWLEDGE (Epignosis), God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient; Being filled with all unrighteousness...

Why stop there? Why not show the verse in CONTEXT with the entire passage?? James 2:20-26 Do you want proof, you ignoramus, that faith without works is useless? Was not Abraham our father justified by works when he offered his son Isaac upon the altar? You see that faith was active along with...

Sooooo, the listing in Deut. 5 is "garbage"?? It was inspired by the Holy Spirit, so I would be careful if I were YOU by calling it "garbage" . . . I'm not surprised that this would be your response - but that's what I get for attempting to have an intellectual conversation with an "unarmed"...

The spurious copies were usually in the vernacular and were unauthorized translations. By the time of the Synod of Toulouse in 1229, the Gnostic heresy of Catharism had already taken root because of unauthorized translations of Scripture being distributed. If it hadn't been for the Church -...

And belief is NOT faith. James 2:19 warns us that even the DEMONS believe. TRUE Faith = Belief + Obedience (works) (Matt. 7:21, James 2:14:26).

Only to a Scripturally ignorant. This is one of my FAVORITE anti-Catholic arguments, so please indulge me because this takes a little explaining . . . In the Catholic listing, why is the 2nd Commandment of “You shall not take the name of the Lord your God in vain” different from the Protestant...

I HOPE you do - but you won't get there by being disobedient.

Uhhhh, no we didn't. Can't imagine WHY you'd say that. See post #230 . . .

Uh huh - and what your abject ignorance won't allow you to understand is that: a. As many as 90% of the general public was functionally illiterate and had ZERO use for a written Bible. b. Bibles were HANDWRITTEN in the 12th and 13th centuries. Because of this - they were VERY expensive and...

I place so much importance on it because Scripture does. The entire point of the passage rides on the fact that the person who has Epignosis of Christ can LOSE their secure position with God. Your entire position is about YOU - not the truth. YOUR understanding is that Epignosis is not...

Ummmmm, talk about "ignoring" context . . . YOU have been shown DOZENS of times on MULTIPLE threads that Epignosis is not simply an intellectual knowledge - but a FULL and EXPERIENTIAL knowledge, not unlike the consummation of a marriage. You have been shown that the consensus of PROTESTANT...
