I can’t believe Mark is still arguing with your truth and logic.

We Christians reject the 'truth and logic' of those who simply pile on and say 'me too'. Do you have any truth and logic to contribute yourself?

He only has Roman, man made text, to argue scriptural truths and will not take off the blindfold.

If you wish, I can introduce you to the Gospel of Jesus Christ. You seem unaware of it.

Oh well, he is not alone there, sadly to say.

There are many of us who have rejected the lord of this world. I don't care if you're sad that I do not follow your master.

That must be where the word “sheeple” came from.

Luke 16: 19 12 "There was a rich man 13 who dressed in purple garments and fine linen and dined sumptuously each day. 20 And lying at his door was a poor man named Lazarus, covered with sores, 21 who would gladly have eaten his fill of the scraps that fell from the rich man's table. Dogs even used to come and lick his sores. 22 When the poor man died, he was carried away by angels to the bosom of Abraham. The rich man also died and was buried, 23 and from the netherworld, 14 where he was in torment, he raised his eyes and saw Abraham far off and Lazarus at his side. 24 And he cried out, 'Father Abraham, have pity on me. Send Lazarus to dip the tip of his finger in water and cool my tongue, for I am suffering torment in these flames.' 25 Abraham replied, 'My child, remember that you received what was good during your lifetime while Lazarus likewise received what was bad; but now he is comforted here, whereas you are tormented. 26 Moreover, between us and you a great chasm is established to prevent anyone from crossing who might wish to go from our side to yours or from your side to ours.' 27 He said, 'Then I beg you, father, send him to my father's house, 28 for I have five brothers, so that he may warn them, lest they too come to this place of torment.' 29 But Abraham replied, 'They have Moses and the prophets. Let them listen to them.' 30 15 He said, 'Oh no, father Abraham, but if someone from the dead goes to them, they will repent.' 31 Then Abraham said, 'If they will not listen to Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded if someone should rise from the dead.'"

Both Peter and Paul raised men from the dead. Why would you resist being freed from your unChristian fetters?

Your blather does not work here. Paraphrasing some scripture: the Lord: go away I do not know you. The Catholic: but Lord I worked so hard doing things for you. I even flogged myself until I bled. I gave so much and went without for you. I even tithed and went door to door for you.

The Lord: All I asked was that you received me in your heart and know that I died for your sins. All other human good is like filthy rags to me.

Here is a main difference between you and I. I think that you have accepted the Lord and are more than likely saved but are carrying a bunch of useless baggage on your back (Catholicisms man made rules) for nothing. I'm sure you are a good person and really care about others (who believe the same way you do)

You, on the other hand insult me, a born again Christian who loves the Lord by insinuating that I am heathen, unlearned about the Bible and lost for eternity.

You should let the Holy Spirit work through you and pray before you speak. You not only grieve the Spirit but many others out here. And that my friend is a sin. Now go say your Hail Marys and confess.
