Actually - Romans 3:10-12 is refencing Psalms 14:1, which says: The FOOL says in his heart, “There is no God.” They are corrupt, they do abominable deeds; there is none who does good. However, in Verse 5, we read that God keeps company with the RIGHTEOUS.

And faith without works id DEAD (James 2:14-26). To believe is MUCH more than intellectual assent. The Biblical prescription for belief is: - Being baptized (Matt. 28:19-20, John 3:5, Rom. 2:29, Rom. 6:1-11, Col. 2:12-17, 1 Peter 3:21) - Picking up our cross daily to follow him (Matt. 16:24...

The catechism is a PRIMARY source for what the Church teaches. When you want to learn what the Church teaches - you don't go to wikipedia - you go to the Catechism. Everything that is written in the Catechism is backed up by Scripture - unlike wikipedia . . .

Because it's a stronger message to show the victory of the cross over paganism. And for your information - the Catholic Church didn't build the obelisk. It was built in Egypt and moved there by the Emperor Caesar Augustus before Jesus was born. It was moved to Caligula's circus a few decades...

Then, that is something other than the "Real" Presence.

That's funny because In John 6:66, Jesus's follower's left Him because of His teaching on the Eucharist. The ONLY time in the Gospel that His followers left for doctrinal reasons. Let's see . . . who ELSE rejects the Real Presence in the Eucharist . . . . . .

Good grief - the confusion that is cause by an ignorant persona with a keyboard. Most reputable scholars have long-abandoned the Scripturally-bankrupt notion that the Catholic Church is the "Whore" of Babylon.

Unless you fall from faith - as the Scriptures warn us about: 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...

And SOME people don't know how to properly exegete the Scriptures. As Peter so wisely wrote about people like YOU: 2 Pet. 3:16 His (Paul's) letters contain some things that are hard to understand, which ignorant and unstable people distort, as they do the other Scriptures, to their own destruction.

Good grief - why don't you do your homework?? WHY is there an obelisk in St. Peter's Square? Did you ever look at the TOP of that obelisk?? A cross sits atop that obelisk as a symbol of the victory of Christianity over paganism. There's nothing "sinister" about it. This thread is nothing more...

I stand by that statement because wikipedia is NOT a primary source. Always go to the primary source. This is a blunder that many people make when attempting to explain what the Catholic Church teaches - instead of going directly to the Catechism.

No - it took you years to be as confused as you are. It took a long time to develop some of the bizarre notions you have about what you THINK the Catholic Church teaches vs. what it actually teaches.

Here's a little advice for you: Don't get your theology from Wikipedia. You should know better than that . . .

Whenever I see or hear somebody lying about Christ's Church - I will expose them and present the truth.

Just because Jesus is faithful doesn't give YOU the luxury of abdicating YOUR faith . . . Matt. 7:21 Not everyone who says to me, "Lord, Lord" shall enter the kingdom of heaven’ - but ONLY the one who DOES the will of my Father in Heaven." Matt. 24:13 "He who endures to the end will be saved"

The prize is eternal salvation - period.

Then REFUTE the dozen or so verses I presented in Post #1422. Until you can give a well-researched and intelligent answer instead of the silly opinions and one-liners - you lose . . .

That is a perversion of what Jesus said. His message was simple: You are the salt of the earth. If you lose your taste - you're worthless. The point He is making is that you CAN lose it.

HOGWASH. Hebrews 10:26-27 “If we sin deliberately AFTER receiving KNOWLEDGE of the truth, there no longer remains sacrifice for sins but a fearful prospect of judgment and a flaming fire that is going to consume the adversaries.” This is a clear warning that falling away from God will result...

This is a non-answer because you didn't address the entire verse.
