Let’s change it to Pastor, I’m not Catholic.


Ok.


If he does know one is disqualified, He should bar access out of Christian love.

Where do the scriptures say that?


Not in context. The ‘knowledge Paul was speaking of referred to the existence of idols.

So you think a man is puffed up if he claims to know anything about eating something offered to idols, but he is not considered puffed up if he claims to know everything else?


Paul seems to be irrelevant in so many Churches except where it is something that fits their doctrine or if they can twist it around to fit.


Most claim to, but considering the Catholic treatment of scriptures, the fruit would say otherwise.

I agree.


Do you?

I have already admitted that i don,t know.


What Paul said about self-examination is irrelevant to this situation, he already spoke of people like this, if they don’t repent, turn them over to Satan. 1Cor5.

Talk about irrelevant, and you come up with this? Paul was not talking about communion, he was talking about kicking a member out of the Church.

1Cor 11:26-28. The Lord's Supper isn't celebrated in a void, it is a confession of the church. James 3:1.

Context, can't read what you want in to it. If I am thought of as harsh in my judgement that lack of faith in God's Word is worse that communing unworthingly, reprove me from scripture, don't create an understanding of a verse where that isn't the context. Rom 3:4.

Read the article. The hierarchy isn't following their own canon. To some Catholics, that is worse than not following God's Word. But if these won't relent and repent how is that different the than the unrepentant Paul spoke of? The pro-aborts should be excommunicated publicly. The Catholic church hasn't the conviction to do so, thus the scandal. Paul would have, in light of their unrepentance turned them over to Satan. Just as he would have pushed for these 'shepherds' to repent, lest they get the same.
