WHO said Purgatory was a "place"?? Final purification of the elect is more of a state than a place - it it occurs BECAUSE of what Christ did for us. If you're going to attempt to debate a topic - be sure that you have educated yourself about it first . . .

If he was - he certainly didn't appear on THIS forum . . . .

Wrong again. Christian life is a journey of enlightenment (learning) about God. It is a journey towards perfect holiness and salvation. Our journey doesn't end during our lifetime. As for your second comment in RED - I thought you said that we can't do ANYTHING to receive Salvation . . . Care...

WRONG. Who is James writing to? He is writing to CHRISTIANS. That's why in the same chapter, he tells them call their PRESBYTERS of their church to pray over a sick person (James 5:14). Learn how to properly divide Scripture . . . No - but YOU need to provide evidence from Scripture for your...

So, enlightend me, Einstein. Explain the difference between the two . . .

No - I pointed out the exception because I am the one who first posted this verse. No need to lie . . .

Then go to the source and read about it in the Catechism. I've already explained to you that a person is baptized with Water and the Holy Spirit - as Jesus prescribed in John 3:5.

No - I've already shown about a DOZEN passages that show us Salvation is not a "one time" event - and NOBODY has been able to refute those passages. Sanctification is the process by which we are made completely holy - which is the process of SALVATION. Sanctification is God actively saving us.

And this is as Biblically-bankrupt as saying that circumcision of an 8-day-old baby boy meant nothing . . .

Baptism is when we are born again (John 3:5). We can fall from grace at ANY time - based on our own will.

Pentecost was part of the Apostles journey to Salvation. As I have shown from Scripture - ad nauseam - Salvation is a process.

And all of your accusations and insanely paranoid diatribes are based on nothing but your own fanciful imagination. Not ONE single shred of evidence regarding Pope Francis's "Satanism" or Socialism or "One world Church". Just a lot of noise from a dissident Catholic. You haven't just rejected...

Why on earth would you believe in the Father if He lies to you through His Word?? If the Virgin Birth is a myth- then He lied to you - so, why believe in the rest?? And, as for your argument that since Luke and Matthew are the only Gospels that speak of the Virgin birth, then it CAN'T be true -...

And your beliefs are counterfeit because the Bible teaches just the opposite is true. I know you arrogantly think you don't sin - but Scripture says you DO (1 John 1:8). The Bible says that we CAN fall away and be forever LOST (Matt. 5:13, Matt. 7:21, Rom. 11:22, Heb. 10:26-27, 2 Peter...

I absolutely believe. However, as Paul said: 1 Cor. 4:4 For I am not aware of anything against myself, but I am not thereby acquitted. It is the Lord who judges me.

Agreed - and EVERYBODY backslides unless they die right after they are born again . . .

Read my last post (#1619).

A born again person isn't saved until they get to Heaven. The following verses ALL speak about born again Christians who can fall away and be LOST . . . 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...

When did I say that a baby is "saved". YOU said that back in post #1600 - not me.

I hope so . . .
