As John Cardinal Newman said: “To be deep in history is to cease to be Protestant.”

As Elsie says: “To be deep in the BIBLE is to cease to follow Apollo.”

I have finally really found Jesus.

I am so sorry that you have rejected Him.

I thought you didn't want to demean us 'incomplete' folks? (#51)

Don't worry however, if you were baptized at all, by anyone, anywhere, you are Catholic....

You REALLY need more catholic 'education' about this!

What do you think "Catholic" means?

Looks like it is shorthand for Roman Catholic Church - something entirely different than 'catholic'.

THERE IS SO MUCH NONSENSE IN THIS POST THAT I CAN’T FIGURE OUT HOW TO ANSWER IT NOR DO I HAVE THE TIME RIGHT NOW.

Don't run away; as folks will think you have no ammo left.

Some may refuse to read this because they are offended by the author's use of the words "papist", "Romanist", "Romish", "popery", etc., ...

True. Some may do just that. My personal take is that it says much more about the author's style than my substance as a Catholic. Do you give your political opponents the power to upset you with derogatory names? Same principle applies here.

and they will dismiss anything that he may say simply because of this,

Don't be so sure. There are plenty of reasons to dismiss the article apart from name calling.

I am not at all convinced this is the genuine reason. I think it is more like some are AFRAID to read it because it is true and admitting it is true would require a decision.

I read the article. I didn't feel at all fearful but thanks for your concern :-) I don't find the article requires any decision on my part. It's typical anticatholic stuff I've read numerous times before. I spent a lot of years researching the RCC in scripture, the fathers, and other sources. I don't find this author remotely persuasive but if you do that's fine by me.

there are some who would rather continue to go along rather than ever be challenged to think for themselves.

Those who disagree with you and/or the author are impaired in their ability to think for themselves? What if I turn that question around? Are those who repeatedly criticize the RCC by citing antiCatholic articles instead of formulating their points independently impaired in their ability to think for themselves?

For others, the thought of letting go of a lifetime of dedication to a cause is too high of a price to pay.

Perhaps. It's also possible that some are just (gasp!) so in love with the Lord and so nourished by the RCC that wild horses wouldn't drag them away. No matter how many antiCatholic articles they read :)

So they would rather stop up their ears and pretend there IS no other truth but what they hold.

I get that you think Catholics are wrong. That doesn't mean their ears are stopped or that they're pretending anything at all. They may just be living a close walk with their Lord and Savior :)

As Wylie states, "When one man only in the world is permitted to think, and the rest are compelled to agree with him, unity should be of as easy attainment as it is worthless when attained."

No one is compelled to agree with RCC dogmas. Membership is voluntary. I choose it freely and find much joy in being Catholic, the best decision I ever made! Jesus asked us all to be one, to be united, so that the world may believe. If you and Wylie consider me unthinking and in a worthless kind of unity with my fellow Catholics, you're entitled to your opinion. And the fact that you would hold such view of me doesn't trouble me in the slightest. In about 6 hours I receive the greatest gift in the world, Jesus in the Holy Eucharist. You and Wylie can call me anything you want but I'll still feel blessed to be Catholic and very much loved by the Lord. It's going to be a great day!!

Peace be with you.

To bad you didn’t become a Christian.

Now don't be like him!

HE probably is one; just not fully informed.

You and I and a LOT of others KNOW how simple the Gospel is.

Those who get wrapped up and entangled in the externals tend to think those are ESSENTIAL.

"Who do YOU say the Son of Man is?" is STILL the question!

THE IMPOSSIBLE GOSPEL OF MORMONISM: PLAN OF SALVATION



 
 


Welcome to MORMONism 101

 

While we are waiting to start; enjoy the artwork on our walls.

If some of it seems shifty to you, just look at it real closely

 and it will stop moving, but another location will then start to crawl on you.

Do NOT think our DOCTRINE is this way!

THE IMPOSSIBLE GOSPEL OF MORMONISM: PLAN OF SALVATION



 

"He (Joseph Smith) is the man through whom God has spoken... yet I would not like to call him a savior, though in a certain capacity he was a god to us, and is to the nations of the earth, and will continue to be."
 - Brigham Young, Journal of Discourses 8:321
 
 
"You call us fools; but the day will be, gentlemen and ladies, whether you belong to this Church or not, when you will prize brother Joseph Smith as the Prophet of the Living God, and look upon him as a god..."
- Herber C. Kimball, Journal of Discourses 5:88
 
 
"If we get our salvation, we shall have to pass by him [Joseph Smith]; if we enter our glory, it will be through the authority he has received. We cannot get around him [Joseph Smith]"
- (as quoted in 1988 Melchizedek Priesthood Study Guide, p. 142)
 
 
There is "no salvation without accepting Joseph Smith. If Joseph Smith was verily a prophet, and if he told the truth...no man can reject that testimony without incurring the most dreadful consequences, for he cannot enter the kingdom of God"
- Joseph Fielding Smith, Doctrines of Salvation, vol. 1, p.190
 
 
"I tell you, Joseph holds the keys, and none of us can get into the celestial kingdom without passing by him. We have not got rid of him, but he stands there as the sentinel, holding the keys of the kingdom of God; and there are many of them beside him. I tell you, if we get past those who have mingled with us, and know us best, and have a right to know us best, probably we can pass all other sentinels as far as it is necessary, or as far as we may desire. But I tell you, the pinch will be with those that have mingled with us, stood next to us, weighed our spirits, tried us, and proven us: there will be a pinch, in my view, to get past them. The others, perhaps, will say, If brother Joseph is satisfied with you, you may pass. If it is all right with him, it is all right with me. Then if Joseph shall say to a man, or if brother Brigham say to a man, I forgive you your sins, "Whosoever sins ye remit they are remitted unto them;" if you who have suffered and felt the weight of transgression—if you have generosity enough to forgive the sinner, I will forgive him: you cannot have more generosity than I have. I have given you power to forgive sins, and when the Lord gives a gift, he does not take it back again."
 - Orson Hyde, Journal of Discourses, Vol. 6, p.154-155
 
 
 
"It is because the Lord called Joseph Smith that salvation is again available to mortal men.... If it had not been for Joseph Smith and the restoration, there would be no salvation,"
 - Bruce McConkie, Mormon Doctrine, p. 396, 670
 


They succeeded in killing Joseph, but he had finished his work.
He was a servant of God, and gave us the Book of Mormon.
He said the Bible was right in the main, but, through the translators and others, many precious portions were suppressed, and several other portions were wrongly translated; and now his testimony is in force, for he has sealed it with his blood.
As I have frequently told them, no man in this dispensation will enter the courts of heaven, without the approbation of the Prophet Joseph Smith, Jun.
Who has made this so?
Have I?
Have this people?
Have the world?
No; but the Lord Jehovah has decreed it.
If I ever pass into the heavenly courts, it will be by the consent of the Prophet Joseph.
If you ever pass through the gates into the Holy City, you will do so upon his certificate that you are worthy to pass.
Can you pass without his inspection?
No; neither can any person in this dispensation, which is the dispensation of the fulness of times.
In this generation, and in all the generations that are to come, everyone will have to undergo the scrutiny of this Prophet.
They say that they killed Joseph, and they will yet come with their hats under their arms and bend to him; but what good will it do them, unless they repent?
They can come in a certain way and find favor, but will they?
 Brigham Young,

--JOURNAL OF DISCOURSES, vol. 8, p. 224

THE IMPOSSIBLE GOSPEL OF MORMONISM: PLAN OF SALVATION



But OUR leaders don't get PAID; like you hateful, bigotted Catholics and Protestants do!!

--MormonDude(No matter WHAT our scripture says!)





Doctrine and Covenants

Section 42


Revelation given through Joseph Smith the Prophet, at Kirtland, Ohio, 9 February 1831 (see History of the Church, 1:148–54). It was received in the presence of twelve elders and in fulfillment of the Lord’s promise previously made that the “law” would be given in Ohio (see section 38:32). The Prophet specifies this revelation as “embracing the law of the Church” (History of the Church, 1:148).

1–10, The elders are called to preach the gospel, baptize converts, and build up the Church; 11–12, They must be called and ordained and are to teach the principles of the gospel found in the scriptures; 13–17, They are to teach and prophesy by the power of the Spirit; 18–29, The Saints are commanded not to kill, steal, lie, lust, commit adultery, or speak evil against others; 30–39, Laws governing the consecration of properties are set forth; 40–42, Pride and idleness are condemned; 43–52, The sick are to be healed through administrations and by faith; 53–60, The scriptures govern the Church and are to be proclaimed to the world; 61–69, The site of the New Jerusalem and the mysteries of the kingdom will be revealed; 70–73, Consecrated properties are to be used to support Church officers; 74–93, Laws governing fornication, adultery, killing, stealing, and confession of sins are set forth.


1 Hearken, O ye elders of my achurch, who have assembled yourselves together in my name, even Jesus Christ the Son of the living God, the Savior of the world; inasmuch as ye believe on my name and keep my commandments.

2 Again I say unto you, hearken and hear and obey the alaw which I shall give unto you.

3 For verily I say, as ye have assembled yourselves together according to the acommandment wherewith I commanded you, and are agreed as btouching this one thing, and have asked the Father in my name, even so ye shall receive.

4 Behold, verily I say unto you, I give unto you this first commandment, that ye shall ago forth in my name, every one of you, excepting my servants Joseph Smith, Jun., and Sidney Rigdon.

5 And I give unto them a commandment that they shall go forth for a little season, and it shall be agiven by the power of the Spirit when they shall return.

6 And ye shall go forth in the power of my Spirit, preaching my gospel, atwo by two, in my name, lifting up your voices as with the sound of a btrump, declaring my word like unto angels of God.

7 And ye shall go forth baptizing with water, saying: Repent ye, repent ye, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.

8 And from this place ye shall go forth into the regions westward; and inasmuch as ye shall find them that will receive you ye shall abuild up my church in every region—

9 Until the time shall come when it shall be revealed unto you from on high, when the acity of the bNew Jerusalem shall be prepared, that ye may be cgathered in one, that ye may be my dpeople and I will be your God.

10 And again, I say unto you, that my servant aEdward Partridge shall stand in the office whereunto I have bappointed him. And it shall come to pass, that if he transgress canother shall be appointed in his stead. Even so. Amen.

11 Again I say unto you, that it shall not be given to any one to go forth to apreach my gospel, or to build up my church, except he be bordained by some one who has cauthority, and it is known to the church that he has authority and has been regularly ordained by the heads of the church.

12 And again, the aelders, priests and teachers of this church shall bteach the principles of my gospel, which are in the Bible and the cBook of Mormon, in the which is the dfulness of the egospel.

13 And they shall aobserve the bcovenants and church articles to cdo them, and these shall be their teachings, as they shall be ddirected by the Spirit.

14 And the Spirit shall be given unto you aby the prayer of faith; and if ye receive not the bSpirit ye shall not teach.

15 And all this ye shall observe to do as I have acommanded concerning your teaching, until the fulness of my bscriptures is given.

16 And as ye shall lift up your voices by the aComforter, ye shall speak and prophesy as seemeth me good;

17 For, behold, the aComforter knoweth all things, and bbeareth record of the Father and of the Son.

18 And now, behold, I speak unto the church. Thou shalt not akill; and he that bkills shall cnot have forgiveness in this world, nor in the world to come.

19 And again, I say, thou shalt not kill; but he that akilleth shall bdie.

20 Thou shalt not steal; and he that astealeth and will not repent shall be bcast out.

21 Thou shalt not alie; he that lieth and will not repent shall be cast out.

22 Thou shalt alove thy wife with all thy heart, and shalt bcleave unto her and none else.

23 And he that alooketh upon a woman to lust after her shall deny the faith, and shall not have the bSpirit; and if he repents not he shall be cast out.

24 Thou shalt not commit aadultery; and he that committeth badultery, and repenteth not, shall be ccast out.

25 But he that has committed adultery and repents with all his heart, and forsaketh it, and doeth it ano more, thou shalt forgive;

26 But if he doeth it aagain, he shall not be forgiven, but shall be cast out.

27 Thou shalt not aspeak evil of thy neighbor, nor do him any harm.

28 Thou knowest my laws concerning these things are given in my scriptures; he that sinneth and arepenteth not shall be bcast out.

29 If thou alovest me thou shalt bserve me and ckeep all my commandments.

30 And behold, thou wilt remember the apoor, and bconsecrate of thy properties for their csupport that which thou hast to impart unto them, with a covenant and a deed which cannot be broken.

31 And inasmuch as ye aimpart of your bsubstance unto the cpoor, ye will do it unto me; and they shall be dlaid before the ebishop of my church and his fcounselors, two of the elders, or high priests, such as he shall appoint or has appointed and gset apart for that purpose.

32 And it shall come to pass, that after they are laid before the bishop of my church, and after that he has received these testimonies concerning the aconsecration of the properties of my church, that they cannot be taken from the church, agreeable to my commandments, every man shall be made baccountable unto me, a csteward over his own property, or that which he has received by consecration, as much as is sufficient for himself and dfamily.

33 And again, if there shall be properties in the hands of the church, or any individuals of it, more than is necessary for their support after this first consecration, which is a aresidue to be consecrated unto the bishop, it shall be kept to administer to those who have not, from time to time, that every man who has need may be amply supplied and receive according to his wants.

34 Therefore, the residue shall be kept in my astorehouse, to administer to the poor and the needy, as shall be appointed by the bhigh council of the church, and the bishop and his council;

35 And for the purpose of apurchasing lands for the public benefit of the church, and building houses of bworship, and building up of the cNew Jerusalem which is hereafter to be revealed—

36 That my covenant people may be gathered in one in that day when I shall acome to my btemple. And this I do for the salvation of my people.

37 And it shall come to pass, that he that sinneth and repenteth not shall be acast out of the church, and shall not receive again that which he has bconsecrated unto the poor and the needy of my church, or in other words, unto me—

38 For inasmuch as ye ado it unto the least of these, ye do it unto me.

39 For it shall come to pass, that which I spake by the mouths of my prophets shall be fulfilled; for I will consecrate of the ariches of those who embrace my gospel among the Gentiles unto the bpoor of my people who are of the house of Israel.

40 And again, thou shalt not be aproud in thy bheart; let all thy cgarments be plain, and their dbeauty the beauty of the ework of thine own hands;

41 And let all things be done in acleanliness before me.

42 Thou shalt not be aidle; for he that is idle shall not eat the bbread nor wear the garments of the claborer.

43 And whosoever among you are asick, and have not faith to be healed, but believe, shall be bnourished with all tenderness, with herbs and mild cfood, and that not by the hand of an enemy.

44 And the elders of the church, two or more, shall be called, and shall pray for and alay their bhands upon them in my name; and if they cdie they shall ddie unto me, and if they live they shall live unto me.

45 Thou shalt alive together in blove, insomuch that thou shalt cweep for the loss of them that die, and more especially for those that have not dhope of a glorious resurrection.

46 And it shall come to pass that those that die in me shall not ataste of bdeath, for it shall be csweet unto them;

47 And they that die not in me, wo unto them, for their death is bitter.

48 And again, it shall come to pass that he that hath afaith in me to be bhealed, and is not cappointed unto death, shall be dhealed.

49 He who hath faith to see shall see.

50 He who hath faith to hear shall hear.

51 The lame who hath faith to leap shall leap.

52 And they who have not faith to do these things, but believe in me, have apower to become my bsons; and inasmuch as they break not my laws thou shalt cbear their infirmities.

53 Thou shalt astand in the place of thy stewardship.

54 Thou shalt not take thy brother’s agarment; thou shalt bpay for that which thou shalt receive of thy brother.

55 And if thou aobtainest more than that which would be for thy support, thou shalt give it into my bstorehouse, that all things may be done according to that which I have said.

56 Thou shalt ask, and my ascriptures shall be given as I have appointed, and they shall be bpreserved in safety;

57 And it is expedient that thou shouldst hold thy peace concerning them, and anot teach them until ye have received them in full.

58 And I give unto you a commandment that then ye shall teach them unto all men; for they shall be ataught unto ball cnations, kindreds, tongues and people.

59 Thou shalt take the things which thou hast received, which have been given unto thee in my scriptures for a law, to be my alaw to govern my bchurch;

60 And he that adoeth according to these things shall be saved, and he that doeth them not shall be bdamned if he so continue.

61 If thou shalt ask, thou shalt receive arevelation upon revelation, bknowledge upon knowledge, that thou mayest know the cmysteries and dpeaceable things—that which bringeth ejoy, that which bringeth life eternal.

62 Thou shalt ask, and it shall be revealed unto you in mine own due time where the aNew Jerusalem shall be built.

63 And behold, it shall come to pass that my servants shall be sent forth to the east and to the west, to the north and to the south.

64 And even now, let him that goeth to the east teach them that shall be converted to flee to the awest, and this in consequence of bthat which is coming on the earth, and of csecret combinations.

65 Behold, thou shalt observe all these things, and great shall be thy areward; for unto you it is given to know the bmysteries of the kingdom, but unto the world it is not given to know them.

66 Ye shall observe the laws which ye have received and be faithful.

67 And ye shall hereafter receive church acovenants, such as shall be sufficient to establish you, both here and in the New Jerusalem.

68 Therefore, he that lacketh awisdom, let him ask of me, and I will give him liberally and upbraid him not.

69 Lift up your hearts and rejoice, for unto you the akingdom, or in other words, the bkeys of the church have been given. Even so. Amen.

70 The priests and ateachers shall have their bstewardships, even as the members.

71 And the elders or high priests who are appointed to assist the bishop as counselors in all things, are to have their families asupported out of the property which is bconsecrated to the bishop, for the good of the poor, and for other purposes, as before mentioned;

72 Or they are to receive a just remuneration for all their services, either a stewardship or otherwise, as may be thought best or decided by the counselors and bishop.

73 And the bishop, also, shall receive his support, or a just remuneration for all his services in the church.

74 Behold, verily I say unto you, that whatever persons among you, having put away their acompanions for the cause of bfornication, or in other words, if they shall testify before you in all lowliness of heart that this is the case, ye shall not cast them out from among you;

75 But if ye shall find that any persons have left their companions for the sake of aadultery, and they themselves are the offenders, and their companions are living, they shall be bcast out from among you.

76 And again, I say unto you, that ye shall be awatchful and careful, with all inquiry, that ye receive none such among you if they are married;

77 And if they are not married, they shall repent of all their sins or ye shall not receive them.

78 And again, every person who belongeth to this church of Christ, shall observe to keep all the commandments and covenants of the church.

79 And it shall come to pass, that if any persons among you shall akill they shall be delivered up and dealt with according to the laws of the land; for remember that he hath no forgiveness; and it shall be proved according to the laws of the land.

80 And if any man or woman shall commit aadultery, he or she shall be tried before two elders of the church, or more, and every word shall be established against him or her by two bwitnesses of the church, and not of the enemy; but if there are more than two witnesses it is better.

81 But he or she shall be condemned by the mouth of two witnesses; and the elders shall lay the case before the achurch, and the church shall lift up their hands against him or her, that they may be dealt with according to the blaw of God.

82 And if it can be, it is necessary that the abishop be present also.

83 And thus ye shall do in all cases which shall come before you.

84 And if a man or woman shall rob, he or she shall be delivered up unto the law of the land.

85 And if he or she shall asteal, he or she shall be delivered up unto the law of the land.

86 And if he or she shall alie, he or she shall be delivered up unto the law of the land.

87 And if he or she do any manner of ainiquity, he or she shall be delivered up unto the law, even that of God.

88 And if thy abrother or sister boffend thee, thou shalt take him or her between him or her and thee alone; and if he or she cconfess thou shalt be dreconciled.

89 And if he or she confess not thou shalt deliver him or her up unto the church, not to the members, but to the elders. And it shall be done in a ameeting, and that not before the world.

90 And if thy brother or sister offend many, he or she shall be achastened before many.

91 And if any one offend aopenly, he or she shall be rebuked openly, that he or she may be bashamed. And if he or she confess not, he or she shall be delivered up unto the law of God.

92 If any shall offend in secret, he or she shall be rebuked in secret, that he or she may have opportunity to confess in secret to him or her whom he or she has offended, and to God, that the church may not speak reproachfully of him or her.

93 And thus shall ye conduct in all things.

The disciples were called Christians first at Antioch.

Yep. And Ignatius of Antioch (bishop of that city who was familiar with the apostle John, and probably several other apostles as well) is the first person known to use the phrase "Catholic Church," about the year 107 in his letter to the Smyrnaeans (chapter 8). So did Polycarp, bishop of Smyrna (a student of the apostle John).

Catholics didn't come along until about 300 years or so AFTER the 'first christians'!

I guess our early martyrs Polycarp and Ignatius weren't 'first christians' then! If you read paragraph 8 of the link I gave you above, you'll see a very early historical source referring to the Eucharist, authority of bishops, and overall sounds quite Catholic.

Peace be with you.

You are correct, it was snide.
I was just thinking about the posts I have seen from the poster and they are not about Christ but about ‘Catholic’.
It is though Catholic and legalism are primary, Christ and Grace are secondary.
