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.

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!

Such Christian charity. Such “bone fides”.

I can’t believe some want to disparage this guy. Disagree with his faith, fine. But him personally? I should have known better, he is a Catholic priest and this is FR.

I don’t have a problem personally with his being an ex-addict. I know other Christians who have been delivered from addictions. After all, Christ IS the Redeemer. I do hope he is delivered from the chains of Catholicism and his Mary fixation.

This seems like a strange take on things. After all, didn’t Christ come for sinners?
