The Profession of Faith
I believe in one God, the Father, the Almighty, maker of heaven and earth, of all that is, seen and unseen.
I believe one Lord, Jesus Christ, the only Son of God, eternally begotten of the Father, God from God, Light from Light, true God from true God, begotten, not made, one in Being with the Father. Through Him all things were made.
For us men and for our salvation, He came down from heaven: by the power of the Holy Spirit He was born of the Virgin Mary, and became Man.
For our sake He was crucified under Pontius Pilate; He suffered, died, and was buried.
On the third day He rose again in fulfillment of the Scriptures;
He ascended into heaven, and is seated at the right hand of the Father. He will come again in glory to judge the living and the dead, and His kingdom will have no end.
I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the Giver of life, Who proceeds from the Father and the Son. With the Father and the Son He is worshiped and glorified. He has spoken through the prophets.
I believe in one, holy, catholic, and apostolic Church.
I acknowledge one Baptism for the forgiveness of sins. I look for the resurrection of the dead, and the life of the world to come.
Amen.

Jesus said to them: "Amen, amen, I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of man and drink his blood, you will not have life in you. 55 Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up on the last day. 56 For my flesh is true food, and my blood is true drink. 57 Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood abides in me, and I in him. 58 Just as the living Father has sent me and I live because of the Father, so also whoever eats me, the same shall live because of me. 59 This is the bread that descends from heaven.

One of the most beautiful books on the Mass is Scott Hahn’s,
“The Lamb’s Supper”. It had a great influence on me when I was in the process of reverting to Catholicism.
Another influence was St. Justin Martyr’s Apology circa 150AD in which he lays out what the early Christians do when they gathered for the Lord’s Day.
This post is wonderful and well done. Thank you, I will be sending the link for this to friends and family.
hmmm, the catholic mass, intrinsincly linked to the word of God...who would have thought it </s>
I have an audio series from Scott Hahn called "How to get the most out of Mass", and I can say it sure did help me to.
And you're welcome.
Ping.
Roman Catholocism is strange in that on one hand it teaches orthodox christianity and on the other it defends doctrines that are extra-biblical. For example: Mary is taught to be a co-redemtrix; priests (generally) are not permitted to marry; confession to a priest is a sacrament and essential; baptism is essential for salvation; Jesus is actually present in the communion elements. These are just a few of the objections that non-Catholic christians have with Roman Catholocism. You place your faith in scripture, tradition and the organization called the RCC. Christ calls us to place our faith in the living and written Word (in Him) and the leading of the Holy Spirit - period! I have no animosity toward the RCC but I see its overall doctrine as being corrupt, i.e., not pure. Has the RCC ever repented over any of the strange doctrines that it’s taught over the centuries? In light of the doctrine of infalibility, it may be impossible it to do so. God forbid the RCC admit that some of its teachings have missed the mark.

the so-called ‘extra biblical’ traditions you note, are also grounded in scripture and sacred tradition handed down in the original deposit of faith.
The fact that you neither see it, nor desire to see it, are a shame.
I'll just take this one, Friend.

Most impressive!
A few questions:
1. Where did Jesus give instructions that the Christian faith should be based exclusively on a book?
2. Other than the specific command to John to write the Revelation, where did Jesus tell His apostles to write anything down and compile it into an authoritative book?
3. Where in the New Testament do the apostles tell future generations that the Christian faith will be based solely on a book?
4. Where did the table of contents of the Bible come from?
5. What do you think happened to all the things in John 21:25? Jesus did many other things as well. If every one of them were written down, I suppose that even the whole world would not have room for the books that would be written."
No, they were developed over hundreds of years. The ‘seed’ theory says they were always present, just unseen until hundreds or thousands of years clarified them. Either way, you have the Magisterium changing what is accepted and known as true.
If these verses had anything to do with the Catholic Mass being a sacrifice for atonement of sin, then it would be impressive. However, there is no attempt to show that - just that we are to celebrate the Eucharist, “in remembrance”.
Changing ‘do this in remembrance of me’ into ‘do this for forgiveness of sin’ is quite a jump, that the Magisterium took, forgetting another scripture in 2 John: “Everyone who goes on ahead and does not abide in the teaching of Christ, does not have God. Whoever abides in the teaching has both the Father and the Son. If anyone comes to you and does not bring this teaching, do not receive him into your house or give him any greeting, for whoever greets him takes part in his wicked works.”
You are confusing makeing up doctrine (like sola scriptura, or sole fide, neither mentioned in the bible) with the essentials that were in the deposit of faith given to the apostles.
the seeds were there, and grew over time into the doctrines you see today.
If the seeds never existed, then neither would the doctrines.
Folks can read the scriptures themselves, and see if the seeds were ever there.
The law of the LORD is perfect, reviving the soul;
the testimony of the LORD is sure, making wise the simple;
the precepts of the LORD are right, rejoicing the heart;
the commandment of the LORD is pure, enlightening the eyes;
the fear of the LORD is clean, enduring forever;
the rules of the LORD are true, and righteous altogether.
More to be desired are they than gold, even much fine gold;
sweeter also than honey and drippings of the honeycomb.
Moreover, by them is your servant warned; in keeping them there is great reward.
Psalms 19
Salvation has nothing to do with baptism or any of the other sacraments. You make my point when I say that your faith is based on tradition and corrup doctrine. Consider the thief on the cross who entered paradise upon his death. No baptism. Adhering to rituals will save no-one.

>>Mary is taught to be a co-redemtrix<<
Stopped right there.
You have no clue what you are talking about, so study up and come back.
Please ping me if someone answers your questions.
They are brilliant.
