Why I LOVE my Catholic Religion....we have CONFESSSION almost whenever you want to go, there will be a Priest ready to hear your confession!!!

That's one of the reasons I love my Christianity...I can go to confession 24/7 at any time of the day or night and never leave my home...And I know the High Priest is there ALWAYS, to hear me and forgive my sins...

Once saved always saved. The doctrine reeking of presumption laced with the convenience to suit ones own selfish prideful needs.

Worship God instead of creating rationalizations to assuage ones conscience with handpicked bible verses which can be refuted with other verses. All is couched in the selfish term "MY Christianity" as opposed to the Christianity established by Jesus. This is the smooth path to eternal damnation referred to frequently by the Lord..

Accept Jesus in your heart as your personal savior instead of just claiming this with your lips

often I see nondenominational Christians forgiving themselves...like those looney tv evangelist...openly crying on tv about asking God for forgiveness....

please....

then they go ahead and sin more....like Clintoon....

although Catholic confession is not public, it is lowering yourself to another human being and saying out loud your sins...acknowledging your sins...

but I suppose just talking to God in the privacy of your home would be easier...and you wouldn't want the public to know that you actually sin...no ,not that...
