“If Martin Luther had never been, we would still say it because that is what Scripture says.”
No, actually if Martin Luther had never been, then you would not be saying it because scripture doesn’t agree with Protestantism. Even Protestants disagree with one another about the meaning of scripture.
“I don’t know how someone in an all-consuming Catholic mind-set can ever be led to truth about it though except by God.”
God leads people to an “all-consuming Catholic mind-set”. I have met plenty of former Protestants who would attest to that fact.
“We can say it all day and all night but unless the Lord moves upon you to show you what we say is true, you will always believe that erroneous interpretation.”
Thankfully God has led me to the truth - the Catholic faith - and preserved me from the error of Protestantism.
“No, actually if Martin Luther had never been, then you would not be saying it because scripture doesn’t agree with Protestantism. Even Protestants disagree with one another about the meaning of scripture.”
Yes, I would.....I am neither of a Protestant or Catholic mind-set. Just a bible-believing Christian and that is what the Scripture means 100%. But only the Spirit of God can convict you of that truth. So my original statement stands.
Again, only God can lead one to the truth of what I say and that includes both Catholics and Protestants. I am neither. I am a born-again, Spirit filled Christian.
Again, I am not Protestant nor Catholic. I believe the truth of the Scriptures as revealed to me by the Holy Spirit and not man’s interpretation thereof.
