***Are you still posting these lies after being shown the error of your ways?
You have shown nothing, other than a penchant for insults and defamation.***
It is not possible to insult or defame anyone who repeatedly posts content which has been disproved with swathes of the Gospel.
***Name them. There is only one Church of Jesus Christ; all others are creations of hubris-filled men. Name the church and I can name its creator. The Catholic Church was created by Christ; who created yours?
Christianity. I am a Christian. I follow Christ.***
At a rather significant distance, it would seem.
***I am not a “Catholic”, I do not follow a Pope.***
After all of our discussions, do you not comprehend the role of the Pope yet?
***And it is you hubris that yours is the “true” church. Ask the Orthodox from whom your church split.***
I have. The Catholic Church is the Church of Jesus Christ, which includes the Orthodox and the Latin branches. Not the church of Tom, Dick or Luther, or anything that came from the inebriated synapses in a LaZBoy chair, a tavern, or huddled in a room in Geneva.
***If anyone can lay claim to the original church, it would be the orthodox.***
So you are admitting that you intentionally are out in the cold?
You never had done so; you haven't shown the Biblical stance of purgatory. Or how about the Biblical stance that says Muslims will worship before the Throne of God (Catechism 841)? What's the Biblical stance for that?
At a rather significant distance, it would seem.
I figured you'd say as much. Catholics are so used to be judge, jury, and executioner of all that it just comes natural to attack another person's relationship with Christ.
Go ahead, now tell me I am evil, that I do not know the Savior. I will not counter. I know you have called me an illegitimate son of evil. Jesus told me to turn the other cheek, for it shall heap coals upon the head of my enemies.
Scalp getting a little warm?
After all of our discussions, do you not comprehend the role of the Pope yet?
A man who leads the church, who can make a pronouncement that must be accepted as the Gospel truth. That about sum it up?
I have. The Catholic Church is the Church of Jesus Christ, which includes the Orthodox and the Latin branches
Not according to the Orthodox. They have some pretty serious issues with your "claims" in many areas of theology, and do not consider any "reunification" with your offshoot a possibility.
So you are admitting that you intentionally are out in the cold?
The Orthodox do not state I will never be saved for being a Protestant. I am not condemned to Hell, as you Catholics are so willing to do.
If that is being out in the cold, then I welcome the snow!
We Christians are never out in the cold, Mark. I’m not so sure about you Catholics anymore. After reading your posts, I’m convinced that Catholics grow farther and farther away from the truth.
1. Did the Holy Ghost proceed from the Father and the Son or from the Father alone?
2. Is the pope the earthly head of the Church on Earth, with the universal power of the keys inherited from Peter, or is he merely "primus inter pares?"
3. Is the pope entitled by virtue of his office to "interfere" in the doings of diocesan ordinaries? If not, why not?
Vivat Jesus!
