"I admire your constancy, sir. It is a gift to be so wrong so often, in so many ways. Do you have your Bible handy?"

Oh, I have a Bible handy...it is the thing that continues to expose the Roman error so routinely. Your first quote is so obviously taken out of context that it serves as a prime example of the destructive hermeneutic promulgated by Rome and its ignorant ilk.

Then you teach us Jewish Law as a practice for believing Gentiles. Obviously, you did not read the rest of the story (Eph. 2:11 - 16), but that has never stopped you from spouting the bizarre theology peddled by Rome.

We could only hope that some of the Roman constituents would actually cut off and tear out some of the appendages demanded by the tenets of Jewish Law for the failures that they inevitably commit. If they did at least they would be closer to demonstrating they actually believed the tripe they try to set upon the rest of the world. Instead, like Peter was compelled to spank the Judaizers, we need to chastize you patrons of Rome, "Now therefore why do you put God to the test by placing upon the neck of the disciples a yoke which neither our fathers nor we (especially the RCs) have been able to bear? But we (the real rescued believers) believe we are saved through the grace of the Lord Jesus,..." You probably cannot find this in the Bible, since it repudiates the silly self-justification of Rome.

But, please continue with that cultish practice of penance and other empty rituals certain to be destroyed in the final judgment. It makes the free and unearned grace of Jesus Christ so beautiful in contrast to the self-righteousness mistakenly held by Rome. Those called into the light of Christ will see this contrast and flee to the safety of His righteousness and away from Vatican darkness.

If one pounds a little less and reads a little more, there is no end of the revelation of God that one may encounter.

the destructive hermeneutic promulgated by Rome and its ignorant ilk.

We wrote the NT, we selected the version of each book, bound it, printed it, and via Gutenberg, brought it to the heretic, the apostate, the pagan and the ungrateful. We know what it means; innovative theologies are of no interest to Christians. Only the worship of God. You may wish to take your complaints to Dr. Phil.

But, please continue with that cultish practice of penance and other empty rituals certain to be destroyed in the final judgment.

We do not take or eschew action on your bidding; we pay attention to God and follow the Word of Jesus Christ. The Latin Church is responsible for the Reformers, it is true. The Orthodox did not let the heretics get to the point where they could form their own substantial churches. I'll tell that to Dr. Phil.

It makes the free and unearned grace of Jesus Christ so beautiful in contrast to the self-righteousness mistakenly held by Rome.

The only righteousness comes from God and His Grace in our hearts and souls. We do contrast the beauty of the Faith to the hate of the Reformers when called on to defend their own innovative beliefs. I will admit that to Dr. Phil.

Those called into the light of Christ will see this contrast and flee to the safety of His righteousness and away from Vatican darkness.

The love and the light of God do not sit well with the tenor of your post to me. I will tell Dr. Phil that I will pray that your heart be converted and you will become Christian. In spite of Reformed efforts to the contrary:

AMEN!

FWIW, I can't stand this Corapi guy. Has anyone read his biography? He's an ex-drug addict. And that's not the least of his bone fides.

He's just gone from one addiction to another.

"Can the blind lead the blind? shall they not both fall into the ditch? " -- Luke 6:39

Gotta go. Enjoy the day the Lord made, Saints!

I think it may be as simple as they are stuck on the wrong side of The Cross.
