    Redemption ?

    You're back-pedaling. The Immaculate Conception refers to MARY'S conception - not Jesus's. YOUR question was: "Was Mary Immaculately conceived in her Mother's womb or when the Holy Spirit came upon her and the Power of the most High over shadowed her?"

    Redemption ?

    Yes - and the point being that Mary was not "conceived" when the Angel visited her. She was a young woman. Mary was conceived in the normal way - within her mother's body.

    Redemption ?

    Ummm, first of all - this entire angry tirade reflects a deep ignorance of the prefix "Co". Then again, it may be a simple a refusal to acknowledge that it doesn't mean what YOU want it to mean. YOU want it to mean that the Church is trying to tell us that Mary is another Redeemer. And, as I...

    Redemption ?

    It's glaringly apparent that no matter how many times the prefix "Co" is explained to you, it just dribbles out of your ears. "Co" only means "equal" to English-speaking Americans who are ignorant of other languages. "Co-Redemptrix" is perfectly fine - when you have the capacity to understand...

    Redemption ?

    Really?? Was Jesus just joking when He said: Matt 16:18-19 And so I say to you, you are Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church, and the gates of the netherworld shall not prevail against it. I will give you the keys to the kingdom of heaven. WHATEVER YOU bind on earth shall be bound...

    Redemption ?

    You're being dishonest. Attempting to show that the underlying message of the title of "Co-Redemptrix" means that the Church considers Mary to be another redeemer is a flat out LIE. Kepha was spot-on with his explanation that "Co-Redemptrix" means that Mary "assisted" in our redemption and she...

    Redemption ?

    Really? We've had the Bible for over 2000 years? When was it compiled and declared Canonical?? Have you EVER cracked open a history book?

    Redemption ?

    And it sounds like you're confused - and a little dishonest. To put it simply- if any Early Church Father says that the Church is necessary for interpretation and the standard of orthodoxy, or that Tradition is binding, then he does NOT believe in Sola Scriptura. You can cherry-pick their...

    Redemption ?

    The problem with terms like "Co-Redemptrix in English is that Americans automatically assume that the "Co" person has an equal share in the work. "Co" simply means "with" - not equal partners. It is in THIS sense that Paul is calling us "Co-workers" (Sunergos) with God and that he stated that...

    Redemption ?

    According to YOU - but not according to many linguistic scholars. Lets see - Greek linguistic scholarship vs. some guy spewing his opinions on an anti-Catholic online forum . . . Again - you have the nerve to claim that Paraphrasing is "always" debatable - yet you sit there and claim that the...

    Redemption ?

    Oh, you mean those out of context quotes? NONE of those Fathers believed in Sola Scriptura. Here is what the ones YOU quoted actually believed about your heresy: Irenaeus said: The Catholic Church possesses one and the same faith throughout the whole world, as we have already said (Against...

    ANTI-CATHOLICISM IN THE MEDIA

    As I've said at least 100 times on this forum: Stop lying and I'll leave you alone. People like You and Ally.s.j and all of the other anti-Catholics here complain when you get exposed for posting lies. Sins have consequences . . .

    ANTI-CATHOLICISM IN THE MEDIA

    I don't "tear the guts" out of anybody. I destroy lies - and expose people like YOU who perpetuate them. Look at how angry you get every time you are exposed for the half-baked falsehoods and myths you spread. Everybody who lies HATES to be exposed - ans that's why you're angry . . .

    Redemption ?

    Then explain what is mean when Paul says that we are "co-workers" with God . . .

    Redemption ?

    This is the most asinine defense of Sola Scriptura I've ever seen because we you're using extrabiblical testimony (falsely, by the way) to support something that can ONLY be supported by Scripture itself. Unfortunately for YOU - Scripture doesn't do that. It NEVER claims to be our sole rule of...

    Redemption ?

    Wrong. That's like saying that to swim, swimming, swam and have swum are the same exact word used exactly the same way. They're not. Kecharitomene is a variation of charitoo - it's the perfect participle of that word, not the same exact word. You will find Kecharitomene only in ONE place in...

    ANTI-CATHOLICISM IN THE MEDIA

    Yup - history is jam-packed with the sins of men - Catholic, Protestant, Lone Rangers, Muslims, Buddhists, Hindus, etc. It's even filled with the sins of the folks over at YOUR cult aggressivechristianity.net. That is the folly of man. If you're looking for perfect people - you'll only find...

    Redemption ?

    Paul calls us "Sunergos" - "CO-WORKERS" (1 Cor. 3:9, 2 Cor. 6:1) with God. We are not God's stooges - we are His co-workers. Explain to me what this means.

    Redemption ?

    It’s BOTH. In Hebrew, Immanuel can be rendered as “God with us” or “With us is God” (Strong’s Greek Lexicon). For example – the title of “Firstborn” can be an adjective OR a noun: Merriam Webster’s Collegiate dictionary Firstborn adjective 1. first in the order of birth; eldest. noun 2. a...

    Redemption ?

    Wrong. Paul talks about his sufferings for the sake of the Church. Jesus also teaches about suffering for the sake of the Gospel. Paul calls us "Sunergos" - "CO-WORKERS" (1 Cor. 3:9, 2 Cor. 6:1) with God. The proof is right here in God's sacred Word. You can't escape it.
