The Deposit of Faith.
Is that an opinion or something catholics have to believe? There are some catholics who claim to be more knowledgeable than the pope. Perhaps we need their insight on this matter?
btw....you confuse sola scriptura with what you post.
Luther translated everything, even the books that WEREN’T recognized as CANON at the time by the Catholic church itself.
He included them in a separate section.
Playing lawyer are we? The Deuterocanonical books were recognized as canon at the time, as they were since the 4th century. By placing them in an appendix he was declaring that they were not part of Sacred Scripture even though they were bound in the same volume. Thus Luther did remove the Deuterocanonical books from the Bible, i.e. from Sacred Scripture. Or would you claim that they are indeed a part of the Bible and are to be considered Sacred Scripture?
The Cardinals. But I thought that you knew that.
John notes in two places we have all we need to know on how to have eternal life.
He doesn't wear a Crucifix. The image he wears and frequently hides is of a figure posed in the "osiris position".
You openly acknowledge that you don't care, so why do you think anyone should waste their time giving you a serious answer?
Don’t you think one ignernt question per post is enough? You had enough in there for two additional ignernt posts. Just sayin. Space it out a little.
Well known is the Catholic teaching that no one can be saved outside the Catholic Church. Eternal salvation cannot be obtained by those who oppose the authority and statements of the same Church and are stubbornly separated from the unity of the Church and also from the successor of Peter, the Roman Pontiff.In the same letter, he said:
There are, of course, those who are struggling with invincible ignorance about our most holy religion. Sincerely observing the natural law and its precepts inscribed by God on all hearts and ready to obey God, they live honest lives and are able to attain eternal life by the efficacious virtue of divine light and grace since God who clearly beholds, searches, and knows the minds, souls, thoughts, and habits of all men, because of His great goodness and mercy, will by no means suffer anyone to be punished with eternal torment who has not the guilt of deliberate sin.This is well before Vatican II.
I do not understand your question.
Well; I've been accused of being my own pope; so I would reason that these guys are their own Torquemada.
The GOPe is having fits because of Trump daring to speak out.
You got the weekend duty?
Terycarl and Vlad will be back tomorrow?
Reading is FUNdamental!
"One indeed is the universal Church of the faithful, outside which no one at all is saved, in which the priest himself is the sacrifice, Jesus Christ, whose body and blood are truly contained in the sacrament of the altar under the species of bread and wine; the bread (changed) into His body by the divine power of transubstantiation, and the wine into the blood, so that to accomplish the mystery of unity we ourselves receive from His (nature) what He Himself received from ours." — Pope Innocent III and Lateran Council IV (A.D. 1215)
Therefore, if anyone says that it is not by the institution of Christ the lord himself (that is to say, by divine law) that blessed Peter should have perpetual successors in the primacy over the whole Church; or that the Roman Pontiff is not the successor of blessed Peter in this primacy: let him be anathema. — Vatican 1, Ses. 4, Cp. 1
I love how protestants are so attracted to Catholic threads.
It’s like salmon doing their best to swim upstream, back to where they were born.
So when you drive a stake in a Catholic’s heart do you use wood or silver? Just curious. :-)
