Giving up God’s Truth, the Holy Spirit, and Eternal Life for dead works based religion?!? Not wise!

Wisdom too often seldom comes but it ought not to be rejected because it comes too late. Johnson is wise. There is only one truth and one Church, the rest are scattered wild mushrooms that wither away and die with time and tide.

I read authors like Scott Hahn....

Hahn has some of the weakest apologetics for catholicism I've seen.

I can see why the guy got messed up in catholicism.

To avoid hell, make sure you sign on the dotted line by doing whatever the preacher says you need to do

(“believe,”

8But what does it say? “THE WORD IS NEAR YOU, IN YOUR MOUTH AND IN YOUR HEART”—that is, the word of faith which we are preaching, 9that if you confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved; 10for with the heart a person believes, resulting in righteousness, and with the mouth he confesses, resulting in salvation. 11For the Scripture says, “WHOEVER BELIEVES IN HIM WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED.” 12For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek; for the same Lord is Lord of all, abounding in riches for all who call on Him; 13for “WHOEVER WILL CALL ON THE NAME OF THE LORD WILL BE SAVED.” Romans 10:8-13 NASB

“repent,”

37Now when they heard this, they were pierced to the heart, and said to Peter and the rest of the apostles, “Brethren, what shall we do?” 38Peter said to them, “Repent, and each of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins; and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. 39“For the promise is for you and your children and for all who are far off, as many as the Lord our God will call to Himself.” Acts 2:37-39

“have faith,”

21But now apart from the Law the righteousness of God has been manifested, being witnessed by the Law and the Prophets, 22even the righteousness of God through faith in Jesus Christ for all those who believe; for there is no distinction; 23for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, 24being justified as a gift by His grace through the redemption which is in Christ Jesus; 25whom God displayed publicly as a propitiation in His blood through faith. This was to demonstrate His righteousness, because in the forbearance of God He passed over the sins previously committed; 26for the demonstration, I say, of His righteousness at the present time, so that He would be just and the justifier of the one who has faith in Jesus. Romans 3:21-26 NASB

“give your life to Jesus,” etc.)

18Now as Jesus was walking by the Sea of Galilee, He saw two brothers, Simon who was called Peter, and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea; for they were fishermen. 19And He said to them, “Follow Me, and I will make you fishers of men.” 20Immediately they left their nets and followed Him. 21Going on from there He saw two other brothers, James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, in the boat with Zebedee their father, mending their nets; and He called them. 22Immediately they left the boat and their father, and followed Him. Matthew 4:18-22

Is this the same Don Johnson from Miami Vice?

If so, his daughter is the female lead in the ‘Fifty Shades of Grey’ movies.

What part has light with Darkness? My children love Jesus Christ’s true word (Bible) and know that rote mantras and sacraments cannot save. The just shall live by faith! Why would anyone send their children to a homosexual/ pedophile infested group that places little value in the Word of God? Yes, there is one true church...made up of believers all over the planet who confess Christ and believe His Word. Only those who reject Romanism and believe, will dine with Jesus Christ at His great supper!

This One Church you refer to as consisting of “believers” all over the planet is sheer mythology. They all crack open the pages of the Bible (a Bible that was assembled by the Catholic Church as the true Word of God) and believe whatever they want to from Joel Osteen to Rev. Jeremiah Wright.

The Catholic Church itself has a single Credo and a Catechism that reflects one belief.

You mistake personal sin as substitute for the Church. The Church is not only a hotel for saints but a hospital for sinners including its own.
