Interesting. Do you think that Catholics don’t read Scripture?

Well, I can’t say that about all Catholics, because I’ve never met them all :) No denomination owns the “fail to read the bible” label, because many of us fall short in that category. That being said, I usually encounter surprise by the Catholics I’ve interacted with when I show them from scripture what I believe and why I believe it, namely justification by faith as Paul taught it in Romans. What role do the sacraments play in our justification? I’m confident that Paul would say nothing.
