Plus, I am familiar with your statements on once being Catholic. I'm sorry you either had a poor catechisis, or completely misunderstood it. I have also seen your posts on other threads. It is hard for me to give you any credence on anything Catholic.
Also, I don't think you post in good faith or are an honest person. I have said a prayer for you and the others. It's the best I can do for those that mouth the words but have no love in their hearts.
“...He responded, “Well did Isaiah prophesy about you hypocrites, as it is written: ‘This people honors me with their lips, but their hearts are far from me; In vain do they worship me, teaching as doctrines human precepts.’ You disregard God's commandment but cling to human tradition.”
Mark 7:6-8
I still pray you and the others give up your rebellion against Christ.
I was well taught and was actually a leader in my diocese. Then one day the Holy Spirit opened my eyes to the grace of God ... I wanted to stay catholic, I had ministries I loved, friends I loved and some degree of"position ". My family kept talking to me about tradition .
But one by one God showed me the errors in Catholic doctrine and eventually I had to leave if i was to be true to God and myself
