What do you think sanctification IS?? It is holiness. Without sanctification, we cannot enter Heaven. Sanctification is what purifies us. No sanctification = no salvation.

Nonsense. Your previous post implied that the grace from Christ's finished work on the cross requires our cooperation in order for us to be saved. This is the correct position. ALL of us are REDEEMED by that finished work - but not ONE is us is saved until we cooperate with that grace. What...

First of all - provide some historical documentation that the Catholic Church ever promoted the "selling" of forgiveness. Secondly - show me some historical evidence for the moronic charge that the Catholic Church killed between 50-150 MILLION people. This would have wiped out most of Europe...

WRONG again. There is not ONE single document or decree from the U.S. Bishops that states a Catholic must eat fish on Fridays - and there NEVER has been. there isn't even a document suggesting it - only to abstain from meat on Fridays during Lent. So - everything you have said so far is a...

Now there are a couple of "intelligent" responses. YIKES . . .

Careful - your ignorance is showing again . . . First of all - an "anathema" is simply an excommunication. It isn't a damnation or a physical punishment. As for Popes being responsible for 50-150 MILLION deaths - there is so much that is perversely wrong with that statement - it's difficult...

And once again, you've been proven wrong by Scripture - and all you can do is whine. Commandments ore for the BELIEVER - not the UNbeliever. What good is a command from God to a person who doesn't even acknowledge Him?? Pretty elementary . . .

Uh huh. A Command BY Jesus TO LOVE. A Command that is possible for a Saved and Born again man can fulfill via the Power of God within them. And? What is your position, about he WHO performs "WORKS" of mercy and charity? A saved and born again man? An unsaved and not born again man? And? What...

That's your choice - but next time, do your homework before you go around making false claims about Mary.

Pretty much what I thought you'd say . . .

It's never time to be silent at the beginning of a conversation. Listen - YOU made a false claim. I responded - then, you refused to respond. That's running from a conversation . . .

Historically-bankrupt nonsense. Not only is the Catholic Church still here - it is by FAR, bigger than any Protestant splinter sect. It has been here for 2000 years and will be here until Christ returns. Not sure where you're getting your history - but it's not from this planet . . .

Yes, I was. I never run from a conversation.

And again, you dodged the question. My question to YOU was: When Jesus told Peter that the gates of Hell would NOT prevail against His Church (Matt. 16:18)- was He just kidding - or lying?

EVERYTHING you listed above can be said of BOTH His born again followers AND the unbelievers. We ALL must repent when we sin. We ALL must become reconciled. We ALL must ask. We ALL must seek. We ALL must knock. Non-believers are not "commanded" to do anything. ONLY the born-again believer is...

Jesus said plainly: John 14:15 “If you love me, you will keep my commandments." WHAT did He command us to do? John 13:34 A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another: just as I have loved you, you also are to love one another. WHAT does this entail? - Works of mercy and charity...

Sooooo, when Jesus told Peter that the gates of Hell would NOT prevail against His Church (Matt. 16:18) - He was just kidding - or lying? Please enlighten us . . .

Perhaps YOU could shed some light on how Catholics are being Spiritually "starved to death". This should be an easy task for you . . .

Nonsense. ALL of Jesus' commands are for His followers. John 14:15-17 “IF YOU LOVE ME, you will keep my commandments. And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Helper, to be with you forever, even the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees him nor...

Not to "what" - but to WHOM. The answer is God.
