Good verse to go with this.
Amazing that Catholics know the Bible, huh? /sarc off
Is the truth found in days, delchiante? Or in “Today”, so that...
“Today, if you hear His voice, do not harden your hearts.”
Mat_19:21 Jesus said unto him, If thou wilt be perfect, go and sell that thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come and follow me.
Luk_12:21 So is he that layeth up treasure for himself, and is not rich toward God.
Mat_6:19 Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal:
Mat_6:20 But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal:
God condemns the stored up wealth of your religion and you still claim that your religion wrote the bible; owns the bible...How ridiculous is that???
Should never have that much anyways...you can only take your soul to heaven.....
**Food for Africa. Do You Want to Sign a Petition?**
Obviously this poster has never heard the story about giving a person a fish versus teaching them how to fish and thus making them productive and self-feeding instead of waiting for another hand out. But if this person is a product of the American “school” system, they only know that welfare is the only way to get rid of the poor.
I got question was this idea came out in after Tudor England times I think so it come every few 50 years they thinking about it
Why not a suggestion that the Smithsonian should auction off all that junk and give the money to the poor.....they could use the building for a homeless sheltes....
WOW, it's amazing how much you know about the Vatican and its workings......NOT
Don't pay any attention to those dates...never mind Christmas Easter and whatever and if you don't like the Gregorian Calendar, invent your own........of wait a minute, you already have a meaningless bunch of nonsense dates that mean nothing to anybody.....Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!!!
One of the qualities of gold is that it can be laid on things in an EXTREMELY thin layer....the golden dome of Notre Dame university is gold.....not much of it, but gold.
Ok professor enlighten us all.
You wouldn't handle your own expenses the way you apparently think the Church should. If you did, you wouldn't own a computer to freep with. If God condemns the Church for maintaining assets, then He also condemns you.
Was stationed at San Vito Air Station and there was a Catholic orphanage in Carovigno just down the way.
The Church owned the property and had it staffed with an old priest and 2 nuns. The place was a wreck and we sponsored it to make improvements to keep the kids dry and warm. The roof leaked and we completely scraped and resurfaced it. There were gaping rough-in holes without windows and rough holes in the floor where stones had been improperly laid. It was a mess and the weather was allowed free access to the place. We we told by the priest that the Catholic Church "gracefully allowed the use of its facility for the orphans" but it was wholly dependent on public charity - the Church wouldn't put a lire into it.
He then asked if we would refresh the small chapel because it was showing wear and tear - we respectfully declined until such time as the living quarters for the kids was in good shape...
I thought the situation sucked, but it was gratifying to be doing something good and the kids loved it when we showed up - they'd run into the dirt courtyard and holler "Pazzo Americani! (Crazy Americans!). They'd bring out an old soccer ball and we'd play with them for a while before we got started with the project for that day.
The Church's reticence in spending its wealth on the kids was double-edged - it bothered me but it also gave some of us the opportunity to do some soul-refreshing work.
Oh c'mon...There's not a single person being helped with the riches of the Vatican...You guys have a steady influx of income that handles your charities...
So you are rejecting what God says why???
Today is His 5th day.
The day He made the creatures in the Seas.
And the birds in the heavens
Thanks to Rome, it’s called Saturday.. and instead of a work day, millions think its holy.
Worship Him who made heaven the earth the sea and all that is in them is the command of one angel in Revelation . REV 14:7
Truth is truth. And the Vatican is selling a counterfeit..
Now if people dont think Rome is the 4th kingdom of Daniel that is responsible for changing times and laws, then nobody has any reason to question them and can trust them.
Scripture warns about another gospel and another Jesus. The Vatican has each..
This argument surfaces in every generation.
_____________________________
Yes, it does....though it has surfaced much more frequently of late due to the tremendously widespread ignorance of this generation. (sigh)
Maybe after the collapse, we will #1.look again to God and His ways and #2. build better schools.
We do have to give Vatican some credit for reading the first five books.
January 1st is a holy day and perfectly 8 days from December 25 which they can celebrate the circumcision.
And then Feb 2 is also a holy day which commemorates the presentation 40 days from birth.
Those are counterfeits to the genuine truth but they do follow the ‘template’ of scripture.
Just like goodfriday/holy Saturday/easter Sunday follows the ‘template’ in scripture.
Problem is , Passover is the actual day the Lamb was slain.. and that day ‘floats’ around the Pope Gregory calendar.
On the Father’s calendar , Passover is always the 6th and final workday.
Even when it lands on a Monday.
And a counterfeit gospel and a counterfeit Christ created according to a catechism and not the scriptures..
Subtle, but the enemy is subtle. And billions wont see it..
