They have come to Rome, not to Christ.

Has anyone ever shared The Gospel with you? If you want the only Gospel that saves, if you want the truth of Christ, listen to the links below. None of these links have a thing to do with Catholicism. What I have linked is strong meat suitable for all sinners with a concern for the eternal destination of their own soul. I can’t make you listen, but I will pray you do.

I don’t want to contend with any man. I merely want to sound a warning and point the way to Christ. Please don’t go through this life like the Hebrews Paul wrote of in Romans 10 who had a zeal for God, but not according to knowledge. They thought they knew God, but they were lost. Presumption of salvation is perhaps the saddest condition I can imagine.

What a strange thing to say. That's usually the sermon Catholics give to Baptists, not the other way around. Would you care to preach a few more of our talking points?

As for them "coming to Rome, not to Christ" you aren't God, and you aren't competent to judge the interior condition of their souls anymore than they are yours. They may know Christ far more deeply and intimately than you can even imagine. Or not. It's not for you to play the Pharisee and judge them, nor they you.

My priest shares the Gospel with me every day when I attend daily Mass. Quite a silly question, in my opinion, to ask a Catholic.

Christ died for all.

“May are called, but few are chosen.”

"They have come to Rome, not to Christ... Has anyone ever shared The Gospel with you?"

Your error here --- but surely inadvertent --- is called "rash judgment". It is making a judgment against another person with little evidence, with no evidence, or against evidence.

The person who tells his story in this post at the top of the thread, Timo Aytaç Güzelmansur, makes it very clear that he has put his faith in Christ, who died for our salvation. It is Christ, and Him crucified, who is the object of his trust, and Whom he encountered in the Holy Gospels in the faith community of the Catholic Church.<> A careful re-reading of brother Timo's testimony will show that this is true.

Tagline for you.
