What Is Better, Catholic or Protestant? Francis: “Both of Them Together”

The Youth Pastoral Office of Magdeburg diocese, Germany, will organize an October 2020 “ecumenical pilgrimage” for young people to Rome.

The motto of the journey is “With Luther to the Pope”. A similar trip was already taken in 2016.

The pilgrimage is co-organized by the regional Protestant State church, although the Protestants repudiate pilgrimages.

On the trip's webpage Mit-Luther-zum-Papst.de, the tour operator, Hans Höffmann, remembers what Pope Francis said to the participants of the 2016 pilgrimage when asked by a youngster: "What is better, Catholic or Protestant? Francis answered in German: "Both of them together!”

Martin Luther attended school in Magdeburg as a boy. As a preacher, he led the city to defect from the Church. Magdeburg became the first major city to publish Luther’s writings.

Sorry hun, Jesus did not found your Org.

[Salvation]

Read your Bible.

[MHGinTN]

I am confident that I know The Word of God far more and deeper than you would dare to go, because deeper study and you would see the pride at the heart of you Org fealty.

[editor-surveyor]

.
Jesus didn't found any org; he expanded his already existing Kehillah.

That “Upper room” was Solomon's Porch on the mount, where millions were gathered for the Feast of Shavuot, a rerquired annual gathering.

[Luircin]

Don’t expect any responses to those beyond evasion and subject changing.

And me preemptively calling out the evasion and subject changing.

[Luircin]

Assuming, of course, that there was an apparition at all and it wasn’t just a cynical ploy to divest frightened people of their money. *Coughindulgencescough*

[MHGinTN]

Ah yes, satan’s little twister rears up and finds a Roodian sycophant to air the heresies. Your Michael Rood foolery is almost laughable. Don’t tekt the mark es.

[Elsie]

Bergoglio is a heretic.

Mighty bold talk for a one-eyed fat man.

Show the evidence to the court; please.

[Elsie]

"In an extreme situation, Protestant in danger of death could receive he Sacrament of Reconciliation, Anointing of the Sick, probably all the prayers and sacraments for the Dying. You hear about this happening in situations of war, epidemic and natural disaster.

Luke 8:21 King James Bible

And he answered and said unto them, My mother and my brethren are these which hear the word of God, and do it.Yeah... Sure...

Call no man father.

Luke 8:21 King James Bible

Shouldn’t a Catholic be using an authorized Catholic translation??

[Elsie]

Read your Bible.

James 1:22-24

22 Be doers of the word, and not hearers only. Otherwise, you are deceiving yourselves.
23 For anyone who hears the word but does not carry it out is like a man who looks at his face in a mirror, 2 4and after observing himself goes away and immediately forgets what he looks like

The last catholic mass I went to was a baptism for my cousins son. It was a blasphemous campaign commercial for Obama. Outright political homily and all the other Mary stuff thrown in. No thanks.

 What does LUKE, the good doctor, say?

 

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition (DRA)

Luke 22

¹Now the feast of unleavened bread, which is called the pasch, was at hand.

²And the chief priests and the scribes sought how they might put Jesus to death: but they feared the people.

³And Satan entered into Judas, who was surnamed Iscariot, one of the twelve.

⁴And he went, and discoursed with the chief priests and the magistrates, how he might betray him to them.

⁵And they were glad, and covenanted to give him money.

⁶And he promised. And he sought opportunity to betray him in the absence of the multitude.

⁷And the day of the unleavened bread came, on which it was necessary that the pasch should be killed.

⁸And he sent Peter and John, saying: Go, and prepare for us the pasch, that we may eat.

⁹But they said: Where wilt thou that we prepare?

¹⁰And he said to them: Behold, as you go into the city, there shall meet you a man carrying a pitcher of water: follow him into the house where he entereth in.

¹¹And you shall say to the goodman of the house: The master saith to thee, Where is the guest chamber, where I may eat the pasch with my disciples?

¹²And he will shew you a large dining room, furnished; and there prepare.

¹³And they going, found as he had said to them, and made ready the pasch.

¹⁴And when the hour was come, he sat down, and the twelve apostles with him.

¹⁵And he said to them: With desire I have desired to eat this pasch with you, before I suffer.

¹⁶For I say to you, that from this time I will not eat it, till it be fulfilled in the kingdom of God.

¹⁷And having taken the chalice, he gave thanks, and said: Take, and divide it among you:

¹⁸For I say to you, that I will not drink of the fruit of the vine, till the kingdom of God come.

¹⁹And taking bread, he gave thanks, and brake; and gave to them, saying: This is my body, which is given for you. Do this for a commemoration of me.

²⁰In like manner the chalice also, after he had supped, saying: This is the chalice, the new testament in my blood, which shall be shed for you.

²¹But yet behold, the hand of him that betrayeth me is with me on the table.

²²And the Son of man indeed goeth, according to that which is determined: but yet, woe to that man by whom he shall be betrayed.

²³And they began to inquire among themselves, which of them it was that should do this thing.

And they are as worthless when applied to Protestants as when applied to Catholics. The final exam is a one question test - do you know Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior? If you do nothing can separate you from Him not even death. If you do not all the man made sacraments in the world won’t help you. It’s pretty simple.

Wow!

That must have been one big porch!

Kinda sums it up right there!

Jesus once asked the disciples...who do you say I am?

Catholicism is a Christian-syncretic pagan religion that sadly doesn’t teach the Gospel that leads to salvation.

Mainstream Protestant denominations are similar in many ways.

Yet there are still churches that haven’t bowed the knee to Baal.

A Christian though, now we are talking about only the saved.

Are you saved Salvation?

[aMorePerfectUnion]

“They are members of the church founded by Jesus Christ.”

It is a different church that teaches different things and has lost the Gospel of Grace a thousand years ago.

Today, it is the world’s largest gay religious organization.

Also, the largest religious sexual abuser of children.

And liberal.

Definitely not the church Christ founded.
