"No; She ministers to woman who have been abused."

No doubt she does good works, but we are told repeatedly on these forums that works are like filthy rags. By your own standards her ordination makes her a charlatan. I am not rude and crude, I am just applying what you say to real life examples.

Christian isn't some role you get to play anonymously on the internet. Nor is it some verbal gotcha game where you get to invent your own history to justify your prejudices. With your duplicitous baggage (see (1 Corinthians 14:34-35 and 1 Timothy 2:11-14) and the very specific insults you have made about Catholic clergy, whom I have as family members, you have no room to complain about rude and crude.

Were they clergy/family in 2004, when you posted that you didn't accept Papal and Magisterial infallibility? Or that you didn't accept the Catholic practic of venerating saints, that the saints do not intercede from Heaven, and that such a belief was a holdover of Roman polytheistic worship?

Works are to be done, however they will not provide salvation.

I think you are reaching for Isaiah :

Isa 64:6 For all of us have become like one who is unclean,
And all our righteous deeds are like a filthy garment;
And all of us wither like a leaf, And our iniquities,
like the wind, take us away.
Strong's H5708 - `iddah
1) menstruation
a) filthy rag, stained garment (fig. of best deeds of guilty people)

Salvation is not earned; if you have been "called out", you have salvation.

Good works are a result of being saved by accepting the blood of the Lamb
to cover your sins.

You seem to conflate being a RCC Priest and being an ordained Minister.
We are all Priests as per Peter.
Some are singled out as those who minister to the hurting.

I on the other hand preach the WORD of Elohim. Some folks take issue with the WORD
and prefer the RCC Catechism and man-made tradition to the WORD of Elohim.

There is NO support in the WORD of Elohim for a set-apart un-married Priest.
That is syncretic amalgam with the paganism of Babylon.

The Hebrew Priests were commanded to be married.

Please forgive me if I have hurt you or yours feelings
by preaching the WORD of Elohim.
