Do not accuse another poster of lying.
That is a form of making it personal.

Exactly! Paul said anyone who teaches something they didn't should be considered accursed. The farther we get away from what Christ and the apostles taught the more likely there is for error. We see that happening already in the seven churches addressed in Revelation. Look to Christ alone. Not some earthly organization. God directly to the throne of God with your cares and concerns.
Nonsense. Christ paid the price once for all and now sits at the right hand of the Father. The offering was once and sufficient for all time not to be continued for all time.
And you still insist that Jesus sinned by eating blood and causing others to do so. A Jesus that sinned could have saved no one.

Thanks, Pgyanke. You are a blessing to those on their journey home.
When they claim they are priests it gives me a pretty god idea...
Second, have you researched what is taught in Catholic seminaries?
Yes I have...
Among other things they recite what is called the Liturgy of the Hours. Each day they read/recite at least 12 psalms and 3 or 4 other scripture readings.
Any one can do that...That doesn't mean anything...
Great witness. Irish to boot.
I’m going to buy you a Kevlar helmet and body armor SAPI plates for Christmas:)
You do, however, well interacting with your Catholic brethren. I just wish they extended the same compassion that you display.
Peace.
A person of their word.
Amen wonderful references.
Good evening. I was born, raised, educated (through university) and catechized in a devout Catholic and VERY Irish family.
I thank the Catholic church and my Catholic family for teaching me the beginning of wisdom...fear (reverence) of God. No better environment to point out sin and the consequences of sin which is death. I received that message loud and clear.
My family also encouraged reading the Catholic Bible at an early age. I continued reading and praying for God’s Grace and praise His Holy Name He gave me light by His Holy Spirit and through His Holy Word.
I understand the Catholic faith quite well. The message was an insufficient grace. Not the Grace of Christ witnessed in God’s Word.
We cannot find Grace of Christ in man-made doctrines but only in His Holy Word.
Happy are the feet of those who bring Good News.
>>Eisegesis doesnt count.<<
Worse, eisegesis with a heavy dose of Aristotle is a recipe for syncretism.
The apostles seemed to handle matters quite well. The apostle Paul seemed to think Timothy “that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus.” (2 Tim 3).
So what’s missing from the Scriptures that make us incomplete?
Paul continued: “All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: That the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works.”
There is a figure in Scriptures who tried to convince people the Words of God were incomplete. But the hour is late and both Eden and the wilderness where Christ was tempted are miles away.
Now is this the point where I am told “but the Catholic church gave you the Bible?”
You can find a lot of similar accounts in this book. It's 28 chapters long if you are interested. You may have seen some of it in the past.
If you want another shorter explanation this one is a good example of how God works.
LOL gonna have to read some of those tomorrow.
Something tells me you were waiting to drop those links and just waited for the right time.
Adam and Eve were not born immaculately. They were created.
If it were necessary for Mary to be born without sin because of Jesus, then it would have been necessary for Mary's mother to be born without sin. If Mary could have been born without sin of a sinful mother by an act of God, then Jesus could also.
In order for Jesus to share fully in our humanity, being born and raised by sinful parents would be part and parcel of it.
There have been some doctrines which conclude the sin nature is passed genetically by the man, rather than the woman alone, hence the possibility of a virgin birth of Jesus Christ from Mary and the Holy Spirit being adequate for the second Adam. I don't know if they are fully sound, but I wanted to point out it might be sound doctrine without resorting to an infinite lineage of sinless mothers to birth the second Adam.
Scripturally, sin came through Adam, the man. He was held responsible for sin entering the world although Eve ate first.
If it came through the woman, then Jesus could not have been born without a sin nature.
