....And that's enough anti-Catholic ranting from you....

lolol. Spoken like a true authoritarian.

As proven on this forum hundreds of times, any disagreement with Rome is considered "anti-(Roman) Catholic ranting.

"If you look upon him as an unconverted person, in a state of enmity against God and His grace (a supposition which, without good evidence, you should be very unwilling to admit), he is a more proper object of your compassion than of your anger. Alas! 'he knows not what he does.' But you know who has made you to differ. If God, in His sovereign pleasure, had so appointed, you might have been as he is now, and he, instead of you, might have been set for the defence of the Gospel. You were both equally blind by nature.

If you attend to this, you will not reproach or hate him, because the Lord has been pleased to open your eyes, and not his. Of all people who engage in controversy, we, who are called Calvinists, are most expressly bound by our own principles to the exercise of gentleness and moderation...Our part is not to strive but in meekness to instruct those who oppose, 'if peradventure God will give them repentance to the acknowledgement of the truth.'" -- John Newton, author of the hymn, "Amazing Grace."

Consider yourself instructed.

Authoritarian?

No, that would be the guy who thinks something has been “PROVEN” on this forum “HUNDREDS OF TIMES” and thinks by saying it, that it is so.

No one could possibly disagree with someone so desperately hungry to be right and have everyone comply.

What a joke....

Oh well......I know better to get involved in theological discussions with Romans. It always ends up where you get frustrated by their inability to debate from scripture. Then they start with the personal insults and everything quickly degenerates into mudslinging.

This is one of the reasons I tend to avoid these encounters, and definitely avoid them with certain individual posters. You cannot win an argument with "The change it as you go along, Church".....cause they'll just change it again!

Let me debate a Protestant anytime. It helps keep me sharp and I do learn a bit from them...... some of them! LOL

nabber>I was asking the bona fides from someone else, not you (unless you are Xenia, but then I would wonder about schizophrenia).

Thank you Sister for letting me know Nabber was doing their usual stuff.

Calling names behind ones back.

I take this action as indicative of his ilk.

They claim to be Christians,
however never display the Chesed

One has to wonder.
