Well, it’s not like Mike Gendron doesn’t know what he’s talking about.

Yes, it is precisely that. He does not know what he is talking about or he is lying about it.

His words as you posted them serve to chew up Exodus 20:16 and spit them in Christ's eye.

You said — Yes, it is precisely that. He does not know what he is talking about or he is lying about it.

You must have missed the part where he said the following, then... “Let us consider the contradictory beliefs of Catholics and Christians. By definition we will propose a Christian is one who believes the Gospel while a Catholic is one who believes the official teachings and traditions of his church (presented by paragraph number from the Catechism of the Catholic Church).”

You’ll note that this is the “number” in the parentheses...

For example, one section ...


A Christian is justified once by faith because justification is a permanent declaration by God (Romans 8:30). However, to the man who does not work but trusts God who justifies the wicked, his faith is credited as righteousness (Romans 4:5).

A Catholic is justified repeatedly by sacraments and works because he loses the grace of justification each time a mortal sin is committed. The sacrament of Penance offers a new possibility to convert and to recover the grace of justification (1446).


So, it’s all right there for everyone to see for themselves... :-)

Nonsense.

Nice rationalization but it just doesn’t wash.
