You've been posting that YOPIOS thing disparaging Protestants for such a long time, Narses. Maybe turnabout's fair play, lol?

Signum sacro sanctum efficax gratiae.

A sacrosanct sign that produces Grace.

"Unless a man be born again of water and the Holy Ghost, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God" (John 3:5); "He saved us, by the laver of regeneration, and renovation of the Holy Ghost" (Titus 3:5); "Then they laid their hands upon them, and they received the Holy Ghost" (Acts 8:17); "He that eateth my flesh and drinketh my blood, hath everlasting life . . . For my flesh is meat indeed, and my blood is drink indeed" (John 6:55-56).

If anyone say that the sacraments of the New Law do not contain the grace which they signify, or that they do not confer grace on those who place no obstacle to the same, let him be anathema" (Sess. viii, can.vi). "If anyone say that grace is not conferred by the sacraments ex opere operato but that faith in God's promises is alone sufficient for obtaining grace, let him be anathema" (ibid., can. viii; cf. can. iv, v, vii).

Acts 15:8 and the heart-knowing God did bare them testimony, having given to them the Holy Spirit, even as also to us, 9 and did put no difference also between us and them, by the faith having purified their hearts;

Pure hogwash.


What a wonderful, fact based reply!


Mary (the biblical one) is dead.

Today's Catholic one, apparently, is thought to be alive by many folks.

It will be interesting to see what this BELIEF is based upon...

Which means that we don’t need to know.

If we DO 'need' to know; is that not an indictment against the RCC?

Doesn't IT claim that it had the Authority and Power to assemble the BIBLE as we have it today?

WHY did they LEAVE THIS STUFF OUT when they had the only game in town for 1500 or so years?

>>to suggest that any matter of debate within Christianity hinges solely upon Sacred Scripture is a fool's errand.<<

Well!! There it is! The belief that relying on God's word alone is a "fools errand".

... LEAVE THIS STUFF OUT when...

Yeah; I know. One will now chime in and assert that them DAMNED Prots took out books from the bible.

But, when the evidence is produced of those missing books, MARY ain't in them; EITHER!!!

The Eucharist IS Jesus!
1324 The Eucharist is "the source and summit of the Christian life."136 "The other sacraments, and indeed all ecclesiastical ministries and works of the apostolate, are bound up with the Eucharist and are oriented toward it. For in the blessed Eucharist is contained the whole spiritual good of the Church, namely Christ himself, our Pasch."137 -CCC

Then where is her tomb?

It's right next to Moses'.

You HAVE complained about not having the ability to take a pilgrimage there; right?
