If I weigh in the balance ...

Catholic salvation and
Protestant salvation

(just to keep it simple)


Doing what the protestants say will get me to heaven, and
Doing what the Catholics say won't (or will, but you gott'a ALSO ... (whatever) .. )

The Protestant's salvation is acceptable to the Catholic ... I can hang with them and except for some ritual stuff ... we're on the same page.

but

Catholic people can't or won't hang with US because ... we just don't do things their way.


Now, unless the Catholic can be saved by grace through faith .. alone ... they can't (Even though their own Douay Rheims bible says they can) go to heaven.


Why would I give up a guarantee for a maybe ?

Magr. Charles Pope needs to concern himself with how he and his assigned flock(s) of RC’s are going to stand before God and be judged, rather than surmising in those matters (i.e. the judgment of non-Catholic Christians) that he clearly doesn’t understand or accept as yet.

I don't know bro. I sure wouldn't give up a 100% guarantee of Heaven, for a 1% guarantee of Heaven. At the risk of committing the sin of presumption, I will take the 100% guarantee. I think you will too. 😀😆😄
