9 If you declare with your mouth, Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. 10 For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you profess your faith and are saved. 11 As Scripture says, Anyone who believes in him will never be put to shame. 12 For there is no difference between Jew and Gentilethe same Lord is Lord of all and richly blesses all who call on him, 13 for, Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.
Romans 10:9-13
Unless, that is, your child calls you a good person. Never mind What the Apostles of Jesus said. Nevermind what Jesus Himself said:
And Jesus said to him, “Why do you call Me good? No one is good except God alone. Mark 10:18
17 Now when Jesus came, he found that Lazarus had already been in the tomb four days. 18 Bethany was near Jerusalem, about two miles[a] off, 19 and many of the Jews had come to Martha and Mary to console them concerning their brother. 20 So when Martha heard that Jesus was coming, she went and met him, but Mary remained seated in the house. 21 Martha said to Jesus, Lord, if you had been here, my brother would not have died. 22 But even now I know that whatever you ask from God, God will give you. 23 Jesus said to her, Your brother will rise again. 24 Martha said to him, I know that he will rise again in the resurrection on the last day. 25 Jesus said to her, I am the resurrection and the life.[b] Whoever believes in me, though he die, yet shall he live, 26 and everyone who lives and believes in me shall never die. Do you believe this? 27 She said to him, Yes, Lord; I believe that you are the Christ, the Son of God, who is coming into the world.
John 11:17-24
I don’t answer to or obey heretics, whether they be Bergoglio you.
bttt
So you are your own little luther.
You are officially a heretic then as you will not submit to your pope. I imagine that's a mortal sin in some capacity in Roman Catholicism.
Imagine that ebb....you're committing a mortal sin and you show no sign of repenting.
Should have taken him to 1 Timothy 2:4. Then reminded him of the thief on the cross who was saved at the last minute. Your father had you baptized. It may be that your father called on Gods Salvation as he was dying and in that case he will be in heaven.
What should he have told a little boy grieving for the recent loss of his father?
"I'm sorry, but your father is damned to Hell for all eternity"?
Of course that sounds harsh, but how much more harsh is the reality of Scripture? The Church’s sugar coating of God’s Word has gotten us to where we are today.
I get a kick of heretics lecturing me about mortal sin when they don’t even believe in it.
It’s like a muslim terrorist lecturing me about their false prophet.
Or Pope Hagar:
You don’t have to die to go to heaven
Or hang around to be born again
Just tune into what this place has got to offer
Cause we may never be here again
I want the best of both worlds
And baby I know what it’s worth
We can have have the best of both worlds a little
Heaven right here on earth
Just using your own terminology to illustrate your mortal sins.
Consider, ebb....you are now without salvation until you can get to a priest.
You also have the mortal sin of bearing a false witness on another thread.
You've racked up two today.
You better get to see the priest.
They remind me so much of the libtards who think we should let them run the world because they have such good intentions even though their actual track record in governance produces misery for the masses they claim to love.
Child molesters claim to love children, too.
Of course that sounds harsh, but how much more harsh is the reality of Scripture?
So that, or words to that effect, is what you would have said to the little boy?
I'm a Fried-Chicken-eatin, KJV-readin, baptized-by-dunkin Baptist.
I wouldn’t know what to say to this child.
Kind of like if they ask if Santa Claus is real.
And in a larger sense, I thought Popes believed in Catholicism.
Pope Francis is in deep into the project of either deforming doctrine beyond recognition, or abrogating it, day by day, line by line, 24/7/365.
It’s painfully disorienting to have a non-Catholic, NO, an ANTI-Catholic, Pope.
I understand the difficulty of the circumstances, I really do, but the pope does the boy, and the world, no favors by using false transactions.
As you know, Hell is real and is a horrible place of eternal suffering. To this fact the Author of life Himself said, “It is better for you to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to be thrown into hell.”
Exactly. I’m not sure that I could tell a young child that his father just might be receiving abominable gifts from Satan Claus.
“Jesus died for him too” and “Only God knows a man’s heart.”
Take the chance to tell the boy how much Jesus loves him.
