Then why did Paul make up in his body what was lacking in the sufferings of Christ?

I think though that the “Year of Mercy” revolves around a liturgical year which aren’t necessarily exact calendar years. They are the span of time between when Advent begins between one year and the next, a span of time that’s not always 365 days.

Oh; I get it now!

The Jews didn't get enough 'holidays' from GOD to begin with; so the Only True Church had to create some more.

Makes perfect sense to me.

I guess you need to familiarize yourself with scripture

John 20:21-23
21 So Jesus said to them again, “Peace to you! As the Father has sent Me, I also send you.” 22 And when He had said this, He breathed on them, and said to them, “Receive the Holy Spirit. 23 If you forgive the sins of any, they are forgiven them; if you retain the sins of any, they are retained.”


Yup. Somehow I've missed Mary; Mother of Mercy in this passage.

Thanks for the help.

Should have had made this a Catholic caucus thread.

Yup; then you Catholics could have venerated, adored and prayed to Mary; Mother of Mercy to yer hearts content; without any of us obnoxious Prots spoiling the love fest.

God works through those who serve Him.

Except that goofy ELSIE; who is exceedingly like Balaam's ass!

Frankly, I'm not interested in all the rhetoric we get posted by those into anti-Catholicism.

By golly; GTG; I hear ya!



"One indeed is the universal Church of the faithful, outside which no one at all is saved, in which the priest himself is the sacrifice, Jesus Christ, whose body and blood are truly contained in the sacrament of the altar under the species of bread and wine; the bread (changed) into His body by the divine power of transubstantiation, and the wine into the blood, so that to accomplish the mystery of unity we ourselves receive from His (nature) what He Himself received from ours." — Pope Innocent III and Lateran Council IV (A.D. 1215)

Therefore, if anyone says that it is not by the institution of Christ the lord himself (that is to say, by divine law) that blessed Peter should have perpetual successors in the primacy over the whole Church; or that the Roman Pontiff is not the successor of blessed Peter in this primacy: let him be anathema. — Vatican 1, Ses. 4, Cp. 1

Roman catholics worship Mary as evidenced by their actions and by what the pope has noted in this statement today.

You have NO proof of this!!!

Oh...
Wait...



 
 
 
Bernadine: …all gifts, all virtues, and all graces are dispensed by the hands of Mary to whomsoever, when, and as she pleases. O Lady, since thou art the dispenser of all graces, and since the grace of salvation can ONLY come through thy hands, OUR SALVATION DEPENDS ON THEE.

Bonaventure: …the gates of heaven will open to all who confide in the protection of Mary. Blessed are they who know thee, O Mother of God, for the knowledge of THEE is the high road to everlasting life, and the publication of thy virtues is the way of ETERNAL SALVATION . Give ear, O ye nations; and all you who desire heaven , serve, honor Mary, and certainly you will find ETERNAL LIFE.

Ephem: …devotion to the divine Mother…is the unlocking of the heavenly Jerusalem.

Blosius: To the, O Lady, are committed the KEYS and the treasures of the kingdom of Heaven.

Ambrose: …constantly pray ‘Open to us, O Mary, the gates of paradise, since thou hast its KEYS.

Fulgetius: …by Mary God descended from Heaven into the world, that by HER man might ascend from earth to Heaven.

Athanasius: …And, thou, O Lady, wast filled with grace, that thou mightiest be the way of our SALVATION and the means of ascent to the heavenly Kingdom.

Richard of Laurence: Mary, in fine, is the mistress of heaven; for there she commands as she wills, and ADMITS whom she wills.

Guerric: …he who serves Mary and for whom she intercedes, is as CERTAIN of heaven as if he were already there…and those who DO NOT serve Mary will NOT BE SAVED.

Anselm: It suffices, O Lady, that thou willest it, and our SALVATION is certain.

Antoninus: …souls protected by Mary, and on which she casts her eyes, are NECESSARILY JUSTIFIED AND SAVED.

Where Paul went, who knows? He may have gone to Peter!

AHhhh...

Another great example of how some of Rome's 'doctrine' is created.

As to the rest, don’t criticize what you don’t understand...

I've heard that Mary was 'assumed' into Heaven.

“As a matter of fact, I believe you, Kasper and Marx to all be schismatics; not essentially, but actually.”

See, then once again we see you making a mistake with Catholic doctrine. Someone who actually understood what schism is would not say that about me.

“There is no such thing as “essentially” schismatic. You make stuff up.”

Nope. I simply used a term that has been used before to relate the conclusions of the Pontifical Council for the Interpretation of Legislative Texts when it relied on Fr. Gerald Murray’s thesis in regard to the SSPX. You, being the supposed great traditionalist you always claim to be, should know that. It’s no surprise then, if you don’t.

Yeah. Rahab was given mercy because of her GOOD WORKS!

Well; I've finally hit the wall.

I'm at a loss at how to respond to THIS one...

annalex, what anyone can see with ebb tide is that he/she doesn’t apparently understand what he or she is saying.

Mary sinful? That perspective = crock.

Nope; it's Scriptural:

ALL have sinned and come short of the glory of GOD.
