When the OP is predicated on lies, half-truths and other innuendo - WHY would you expect anything else?? I have absolutely NO problem discussing the Catholic Church's history - warts and all - IF it is an honest, 2-way conversation. If it's just another anti-Catholic kangaroo court - then all...

Phoney - Here are the official titles of the Pope: - Bishop of Rome - Vicar of Jesus Christ - Successor of the Prince of the Apostles - Supreme Pontiff of the Universal Church - Primate of Italy - Archbishop and Metropolitan of the Roman Province - Sovereign of the Vatican City State - Servant...

"Everyone" knows?? Really?? Then this should be EASY for you to substantiate. Show me some documented proof that the POPE "sparked" the Rwandan Genocide. Show me some documented proof that the POPE sparked "millions" of murders in Mexico. I can't WAIT to read your historically-researched...

This is almost like talking to a wall because you are purposely ignoring the meaning of Epignosis. For the hundredth time - Epignosis is NOT simply "knowledge". Gen. 4:1 tells us that Adam "Knew" Eve and she conceived and bore a son. In this sense, his "knowledge" of Eve was the most intimate...

No - what's "hogwash" is that YOU seem to think that the rules of faith are somehow different for Jews than for everybody else. Sounds pretty anti-Semitic to me . . .

WHO said that GOD unsaves people?? People unsave themselves.

Nice try - but indulgences have absolutely nothing to do with what we were talking about. The point is that he have his writings - and he DID tell Melanchton that we could and SHOULD sin boldly because the forgiveness of Christ is that much greater. This completely goes against what YOU said...

Hmmmmm . . . What about your Protestant Father, Martin Luther? In a letter to his contemporary, Philip Melanchton - he wrote about the forgiveness of Christ: "Be a sinner, and sin boldly, but let your trust in Christ be stronger, and rejoice in Christ who is the victor over sin, death, and the...

Nice try - but you are still ignoring the most important word in the warning: EPIGNOSIS. Epignosis is the Greek ford for “knowledge” that used here. It is NOT the usual word, which is Oida. This is talking about a full, experiential knowledge. This verse is about CHRISTIANS who had an...

And that's great - for YOU. However, there ARE those who do fall back into a life of willful sin and LOSE their salvation - and THAT is what the verses I provided warn against.

No - I never said that they "ALL" became saved. The verses I provided show that SOME who are saved will fall back into darkness and be LOST. That's Scriptural truth - not MY opinion.

And those He is said to have "called" and "predestined" are those who CHOSE Him of their own free will. God simply knew in advance because He is outside of time He didn't make the choice FOR us. Once again - God doesn't drag ANYBODY kicking and screaming against their will into Heaven - NOR...

The "wolves" in Matt. 15-20 are false prophets. The lost people on Matt. 7:21-23 are false disciples. Good grief - do your homework . . .

Nice try - but anything that Spain did with the indigenous people of Mexico was the work of the kingdom of SPAIN - and not the Church. The SAME goes for the Rwandan Genocide. This was a TRIBAL genocide - NOT a religious one. NEITHER historical incident had anything to do with the Catholic...

And that's the difference between a person IN Christ and a person who pretends to be in Christ. We who are IN Christ don't go around accusing others of NOT being in Christ . . .

Amen.

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 their salvation. How can they...

Correct. Nor does He drag us into Heaven against our will when we change our minds and hearts against Him. (Matt. 5:13, Matt. 7:21, Rom. 11:22, Heb. 10:26-27, 2 Peter 2:20-22, 2 Peter 3:17, Rev. 3:5, Rev. 22:19).

I've already addressed ALL of these points. However, since Phoneyman is a hit-and-run attacker - he ignores the answers and continues to post as if it is a one-way conversation.

No - you're not getting away with this. YOU posted the following: "The Papacy killed only thousands? This list which is but a partial account of the total number of casualties reports on millions, not thousands." I challenged you to provide historical documentation to support these numbers -...
