Read your own threads. It is quite clear.
Have you accepted Jesus as your Savior?
Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; The Lord hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name. And he hath made my mouth like a sharp sword; in the shadow of his hand hath he hid me, and made me a polished shaft; in his quiver hath he hid me; And said unto me, Thou art my servant, O Israel, in whom I will be glorified.
Next question.
What kind of absurd assertion is that? To even say protestant services have more scripture than Catholic masses is likewise an absurd assertion, as protestant services are so varied, esp. as defined by RCs, that one is claiming omniscience by making either statement.
And which certainly will not be settled by your contest, and i am sure i find you a Prot service that contains more as well as less Scripture than a RC Mass, but which does not prove anything as regards Prot vs. Cath. services having more. And despite your denial, that was the premise behind your presumptuous challenge, and burdening Jim to example and take notes in potentially dozens of messages in a timely manner.
You need to admit that apart from offering easy money, you challenge was ill- considered. You also admit you have never been to a protestant service while your own unsubstantiated exalted idea of a Mass is already manifest in your false belief that nearly 80% of the Old and New Testaments are read at daily Mass over a period of three years." While admitting "Protestant services are mostly sermon whereas a 5 minute homily may not add even one line of scripture."
In addition, your own list of the use of Scripture includes many things that are not quotes of Scripture but merely reference it for support.
I plan to go thru them next God willing.
Here is a contest perhaps the RMs could judge, but it is not their function to do all of it:
The typical RC posts are apt to example more logical fallacies (like the oft repeated polemical basic assertion, "the Catholic Church gave you the Bible, it assuredly knows what it means"), absurd unsubstantiated or specious assertions, and commit more "personal fouls" and other rule violations than the Protestants that oppose them here, though the competition can sometimes be fierce (esp. are re the latter! protestant services ever even said that in those terms? While not as extreme as claiming omniscience by assertion there never has been a bit of anti-Prot bigotry on FR, you are not only claiming you known how much protestant services have in totality, but never clarifying what yoy mean "protestant" services

Learn to read, then opine. The Catechism said that?
The Catechism is infallible also in these two canons. It is, indeed Jesus Christ Who may save the invincibly ignorant, the Muslim, and also the Protestants, because the Salvation is in the One Catholic Church where He will meet you all.
Yep.
847 Those who, through no fault of their own, do not know the Gospel of Christ or his Church, but who nevertheless seek God with a sincere heart, and, moved by grace, try in their actions to do his will as they know it through the dictates of their conscience - those too may achieve eternal salvation.
That clearly says even though they dont know Jesus they can achieve eternal salvation. The same with the Muslims. They dont believe in Jesus yet the Catholic Church claims the plan of salvation includes them. The Catholic Church teaches another gospel.
2 Abraham begot Isaac, Isaac begot Jacob, and Jacob begot Judah and his brothers. 3 Judah begot Perez and Zerah by Tamar, Perez begot Hezron, and Hezron begot Ram. 4 Ram begot Amminadab, Amminadab begot Nahshon, and Nahshon begot Salmon. 5 Salmon begot Boaz by Rahab, Boaz begot Obed by Ruth, Obed begot Jesse, 6 and Jesse begot David the king.
David the king begot Solomon by her who had been the wife of Uriah. 7 Solomon begot Rehoboam, Rehoboam begot Abijah, and Abijah begot Asa. 8 Asa begot Jehoshaphat, Jehoshaphat begot Joram, and Joram begot Uzziah. 9 Uzziah begot Jotham, Jotham begot Ahaz, and Ahaz begot Hezekiah. 10 Hezekiah begot Manasseh, Manasseh begot Amon, and Amon begot Josiah. 11 Josiah begot Jeconiah and his brothers about the time they were carried away to Babylon.
12 And after they were brought to Babylon, Jeconiah begot Shealtiel, and Shealtiel begot Zerubbabel. 13 Zerubbabel begot Abiud, Abiud begot Eliakim, and Eliakim begot Azor. 14 Azor begot Zadok, Zadok begot Achim, and Achim begot Eliud. 15 Eliud begot Eleazar, Eleazar begot Matthan, and Matthan begot Jacob. 16 And Jacob begot Joseph the husband of Mary, of whom was born Jesus who is called Christ.
He said he was the boss.
I assumed that he was self employed.
I could have been wrong!
Read the Holy Gospel once in a while. People are not vessels.
Hail, full of grace, the Lord is with thee: blessed art thou among women. ... Blessed art thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb. And whence is this to me, that the mother of my Lord should come to me? (Luke 1)
I don't think Mother of God somehow did not give us the Lord. But then I believe the Gospel as written.
Catholic masses do have more scripture than protestant services.
So prove Im wrong and Jim gets $750 of my money ....
Prove you're right.
All we have so far is your say so.
You checked how? When? With whom?
Many Catholic truths and values were adopted and absorbed by the Protestants, the Mormons, and even the unbelievers. Those people are not all bad.
Thank you.
Which keep being changed by the hour.
And if we don't play by your ever changing rules.... What? You take your ball and go home?
See my above post to Cynical Beaver
Sounds a bit, shall we say, arrogant.
Romans 11:4
And what was God's answer to him? "I have 7,000 others who have never bowed down to Baal!"
How DARE you accept the clear meanings of words!!
Hold this thought.
Assumed ey? Tsk, tsk, tsk. :-)
You have NO right to claim them exclusively yours!
I know...
I should have noticed he typed ‘the boss’; not ‘The BOSS!’
