Thanks, Alamo-Girl.
What are they still doing in the Catholic church is they are born again?
No, they are not....but I cannot expect you to understand.
Perhaps you will watch this great vid of the former priest and nun who really know what it is to be born again.
Bet you won’t though.
You just like to be nasty and snarky.

After this comment, I will just ignore you. You are so entrenched Chrsit Himself couldn’t reason with you.
Thanks Alamo-Girl, for your support.
Leave the thread and don’t reply if you don’t want to discuss it.
Catholics are famous or should I say infamous for making scripture say what they want it to say.

Gonna have to look for it especially now.
Reading them all backwards.

This lovely young lady in this vid lost a lot of her family when she was born again. Same with Mormons. Afraid to lose the group, the friends, the family.
That is very sad, colt. You might pray that God convict him right up until the moment he leaves this earth.
I am incredibly fortunate that my family has a history of following Christ and none but. Very thankful for my grandmother who was instrumental in my faith....and her name was Lois.
Here is a neat video I watched earlier. Would love to hang out with this lady. She married a rancher in Del Rio, TX. Not sure how far that is from the Dallas area but I might have to take a road trip and meet her someday.

Did someone else already answer this for you?
Good for you, notary.
Go your way.
How do you know they are born again, snipe?
Many say they are Christian but are not born again.
Here is a great testimony. Think I would love to know this woman.

How do we know for certain anyone is and that answer is not specific to any church.
Many say they are Christian but are not born again.
Hum, because they don't do such things as speak in tongues, no spiritual gift manifestation {charismatic} or because something like the preacher didn't baptize them saying in the name of Jesus Christ?
By GOD's Grace through Christ with Faith we are saved and thus Born Again. The contrite heart and acceptance of Jesus Christ allows us to be born again. The moment that happens the very second we surrender to Christ and ask His forgiveness we are born again and our soul Baptized in His Blood. The person may show no outward or even at that time feel any inward emotion. That for some comes later.
Churches make salvation so complicated yet Christ made it so a child could come to Him. A child does not have to know Latin, even know The Bible for that matter when salvation comes.
I was hounded once for about two years by a Charismatic Zealot who insisted I was not born again, saved, etc simply because the preacher did not specifically say "In the name of Jesus Christ". My faith at that time in my life and my knowledge had not matured. Yet I was still saved. The knowledge and growth would come about seven years later in GOD's appointed time in my life.
I don't believe being a Catholic makes anyone lost or saved anymore than I would believe being a Protestant from any sect makes one lost or saved. It's not about the church. It's not the name of the church or the church that brings one salvation. They are buildings for groupps or people to worship. It is whether the individuals within them or elsewhere for that matter accept or reject Jesus Christ. I believe all churches every songle one known to man are in some way imperfect in doctrine but the believers though they err in dogma, doctrine, or theological issues are saved by Grace.
All sin can be forgiven except the persons final rejection of Jesus Christ. That is a persons harden heart where they ignore or reject The Holy Spirits conviction and call of salvation to where their heart is hardened toward GOD.
By their fruits. But their fruits do not save them rather it is a manifestation.
Matthew 15:16
"Are you still so dull?" Jesus asked them.
He is!
He honestly believes his Church will not lead him astray!
I wonder who led them BAD POPES astray???
I wonder who led the white/black smoke guys astray to ELECT them BAD POPES in the first place?
The Roman Catholic Church doesn't think MORMONs are christian; but at LEAST the name of JESUS is found on each of their buildings!!
Search thru the following to find the name of Jesus...

That's enough to make a fellow tired...
Matthew 11:28-30
28 “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.
29 Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.
30 For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.”

I have read the BIBLE...
maybe by being, an A student baby, you can bring HIS love to you...
I still have to get back to you, elsie, on that one point of sleep...soul sleep. I believe that was what you meant.
Don’t let me forget about it because I will. I am really bad at remembering things.
What are their fruits?
