Absolutely. It is a good place to START. Then comes obedience - not rebellion . . .

Time for a Bible lesson . . . The practice of telling our sins directly to a priest is based directly in Scripture. Three times in the Gospels (Matt. 16:19, 18:18 and John 20:23), we read where Jesus gave the Apostles the power to forgive sins or to hold them bound. This is not a something...

Ahhhh, so when Paul speaks of the great "Hall of Faith" in, Hebrews 11 - He DIDN'T rely on the Old Testament?? In Romans 3:10-18, Paul WASN'T quoting from the Psalms?? YOUR problem is that you think Jesus and the Scriptures are 2 separate entities. Jesus IS the Word (John 1:1). When you deny...

No - we can talk further when YOU stop dodging questions and start telling the truth. There's only ONE God - and I ain't Him . . .

Seeing as how there is only ONE Catholic Church - Catholics are part of Catholicism. To try to differentiate between them is to be dishonest.

Not only DOES it refer to the woman and her sons - you STILL haven't been able to tell me where Paul got his example of the "Armor of God", if NOT from Wis. 5:17-20. Paul was extremely educated in the Old Testament Scriptures. He learned from the very best teacher of his time (Gamaliel). Your...

Not in any "pain" at all. I just hold people like you accountable for their false statements . . .

Translation: "I've run out of gas . . ."

Sooooo, your entire argument is denial based on the "wisdom" of Jack Chick?? YIKES!!

I think Kepha31 already answered that question in post #43. the fact that YOU won't acknowledge this speaks volumes . . . As for Paul not stating that he was referring to Scripture - this isn't always the case anyway. Does Paul explain that he is referring to Scripture when he speaks of the...

Translation: "Sorry, but I just can't come up with an example of ANY Protestant sect that contains only sinless people as its members." Yeah - that's what I thought . . .

I didn't call you an anti-Catholic. I said that you were EITHER an anti-Catholic or you were simply ignorant. As for Jack Chick - I also read that tract and ALL of his other ones. He was not only a deranged charlatan who perverted the Gospel - but a virulent anti-Catholic who resorted to lies...

Who said that the church was "FULL of whores"?? When you can show me where I made this claim - I will take your posts seriously. For now - we'll just chalk it up to diarrhea of the mouth . . . As for who "We" are - I was referring to us Catholics.

And living in denial of the truth is a pathetic debating tool . . . As I educated you before - the Dead Sea Scrolls proved to the world that they existed back in the 1st century. Whatever questions or doubts about the existence of the Septuagint were SQUASHED at Qumran with the discovery of the...

the only thing sillier and more ignorant than that statement is thinking that the Bible came out of Protestantism. When you actually study your history, you'll understand that the Bible was compiled and declared canonical by none other than the Catholic Church.

And while you're busy "lol-ing" - point me to ONE single Protestant denomination that has ONLY sinless people as its members. Not so funny, it it?

We're not defining it. the Scriptures define what the Church is . . . 1. Jesus established ONE Church (Matt. 16:16-19). He prayed fervently that this Church remain ONE - as He and the Father are ONE (John 17:20-23). There is NO other. 2. Jesus is Truth itself (John 14:6). 3. Jesus...

WRONG. Jesus warned of bad people within His Church (Matt. 7:15-20). Can you show men ONE Protestant faction that consists of only sinless people?? Yeah - I didn't think so . . .

And this is where you fall off the rails. WHO said that the Bible is the ENTIRE Word of God?? Anybody who makes this claim doesn't understand the Bible itself. The Word of God doesn't equal the Bible. The Bible is just the WRITTEN Word of God. When I read tripe like this, it's not difficult...

And, as I educated you earlier - I don't know of ONE single sect that has only perfect people as members. To say that the Catholic Church is NOT the church established by Jesus because there were some bad guys in it is to be completely ignorant of the Scriptures that warn about exactly that...
