Catholic Word of the Day: DE FIDE, 03-20-15
CCDictionary ^ | 03-20-15 | Fr. John Hardon's Modern Catholic Dictionary

Featured Term selected at random:

DE FIDE

 

A term meaning "of Faith," used to identify those doctrines of the Church which are infallibly true. Their infallible certitude derives ultimately from divine revelation, but proximately from the fact that they have either been solemnly defined by the Church's magisterium or have been taught by her ordinary universal teaching authority as binding on the consciences of all the faithful.

This says “De Fide” — Oops on your part?

Please study your Latin:

**A term meaning “of Faith,” used to identify those doctrines of the Church which are infallibly true. Their infallible certitude derives ultimately from divine revelation, but proximately from the fact that they have either been solemnly defined by the Church’s magisterium or have been taught by her ordinary universal teaching authority as binding on the consciences of all the faithful.**

De fide means “of faith”

My response was:
Faith alone
Scripture alone
Grace alone
Through Christ alone
Glory to God alone

Magesterium or ex-cathedra statements being equivalent to Scripture? Deuteronomy 4:2, Psalm 119:160, Proverbs 30:6, 1 Corinthians 4:6, Revelation 22:19.

How about, "raison d'être?"

Rusty French. "Reason to be." That's what my Catholic Faith is in my life. I don't know it in Latin... I'd be so lost without the Church's teaching to guide me. And I'm grateful for all It teaches about Our Lady. I would sooner not have the sun come up in the morning than not have her in my life!

So are you saying that Deuteronomy 4:2, Psalm 119:160, Proverbs 30:6, 1 Corinthians 4:6 and Revelation 22:19 do not appear in the Bible of the Roman church? If these scriptures are missing, I hope you paid a discounted price for your Bible!
