Please know that those that confront the false teachings and practices of your church do it out of the highest form of love, a love that desires that all men come to the truth who is Christ

So, what about fasting? In the wilderness? For forty days and forty nights? Would you presume to tell Christ he was mentally ill?

Please know that those who pervert the teachings of the Catholic Church do so out of the highest form of self-regard, a self-regard that presumes to judge everything that others do here on earth to discipline their souls, and who never have regarded any other teaching of Christ except their own superiority in twisting scripture to their own benefit.

Fasting is prescribed in scripture,,but not self flagellation

Where does one find the teachings of Christ?
