Can you name anything the Papists believe that comes from scripture?

“This is my body.”
Well ... they do believe that Jesus is the Christ ... :-) ... along with being the Son of God and one of the Trinity. They do have a few things right.
How long do we have to come up with an answer???
Hey... wait -- is this a trick question?
:D
The answer is, nothing they believe comes from Scripture. Unless it's twisted.

Do you know where Scipture comes from? Catholic teaching existed centuries before the canon of the New Testament was established... by the Catholic Church.
The Real Presence. Try reading the words of Jesus himself and then Paul. Couldn’t get any more plainer than them.

Can we agree on this?
201 To Israel, his chosen, God revealed himself as the only One: Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God is one LORD; and you shall love the LORD your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your might. Through the prophets, God calls Israel and all nations to turn to him, the one and only God: Turn to me and be saved, all the ends of the earth! For I am God, and there is no other.... To me every knee shall bow, every tongue shall swear. Only in the LORD, it shall be said of me, are righteousness and strength.
202 Jesus himself affirms that God is the one Lord whom you must love with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind, and with all your strength. At the same time Jesus gives us to understand that he himself is the Lord. To confess that Jesus is Lord is distinctive of Christian faith. This is not contrary to belief in the One God. Nor does believing in the Holy Spirit as Lord and giver of life introduce any division into the One God:
We firmly believe and confess without reservation that there is only one true God, eternal, infinite (immensus) and unchangeable, incomprehensible, almighty, and ineffable, the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit; three persons indeed, but one essence, substance or nature entirely simple.8
