You are not infallible as you concede. Neither am I nor do I claim to be infallible. Whether you are A Reformed Christian or simply a Christian must be left by me to your subjective self-analysis.

As I indicated at the beginning of the last paragraph of my previous post, I decline your invitation to theological dispute. I will leave it to others more knowledgeable and more charitable than I to take up that task.

You have ignored the essence of my post which was a simple request for civility in discourse and to refrain from calling those who disagree with you "liars" simply because they disagree with you. I do not imagine for a moment that you are a "liar" because you disagree with Catholicism. If you are not willing to extend an analogous courtesy, so be it. I am certainly not going to engage you in some unseemly theological debate as though it were necessary to prove my point.

So, please show me where I called someone a liar... It seems that your reading comprehension may be difficult. Civility is a nice form of saying "why can't we all get along"? How did that work out for Rodney King?

Understanding Scripture and the things that we learn from Scripture does not require theology. It requires the ability to listen to God.

I don't need to be infallible to be part of Jesus' family, and I don't need to listen to somebody trying to put me into a box. Good night, from the Philippines...

Contrast the fallacious ramblings of the RCC's claims of their eucharist with what Scripture actually tells us... and let me know if Scripture is lying or maybe that is coming from the Roman Catholic cult...

24 For Christ did not enter a sanctuary made with human hands that was only a copy of the true one; he entered heaven itself, now to appear for us in God’s presence. 25 Nor did he enter heaven to offer himself again and again, the way the high priest enters the Most Holy Place every year with blood that is not his own. 26 Otherwise Christ would have had to suffer many times since the creation of the world. But he has appeared once for all (emphasis mine) at the culmination of the ages to do away with sin by the sacrifice of himself. 27 Just as people are destined to die once, and after that to face judgment, 28 so Christ was sacrificed once to take away the sins of many; and he will appear a second time, not to bear sin, but to bring salvation to those who are waiting for him.
