That’s all you’ve got?
Come on now, you can do better.
“Bring Him off the cross. “
Excellent point.
We know they love their idolic statues, (which coincidentally contradicts their claim of living by the 10 Commandments but I digress)
Why is it that they put on exhibit a dead Jesus, as if the romans were declaring ongoing victory, but yet they always display a living Mary.
“That’s all you’ve got?
Come on now, you can do better.”

No, I wasn’t even getting to the papal conclaves, but since you bring it up......I present into evidence “Foxes Book of Martyrs”
Foxe’s Book of Martyrs is a work of Protestant history and martyrology by John Foxe, first published in 1563. It includes a polemical account of the sufferings of Protestants under the Catholic Church, with particular emphasis on England and Scotland. The book was highly influential in those countries and helped shape lasting popular notions of Catholicism there.0 Foxe’s account of these martyrdoms contributed significantly to a nationalistic repudiation of the Roman Catholic Church and asserted a historical justification intended to establish the Church of England as a continuation of the true Christian church rather than a modern innovation. The book chronicles the suffering and brutal deaths of those who have sacrificed their lives for the sake of the Gospel of Jesus Christ, capturing the God-given, Spirit-inspired courage of these noble souls. Foxe’s original work ended with the martyrs of his own day, those who were killed during the reign of “Bloody Mary.” The book has been an invaluable addition to the libraries of faithful Christians for almost five centuries, chronicling the suffering and brutal deaths of those who have sacrificed their lives for the sake of the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
well, this has been entertaining Ebb tide. Please tag me next time you decide to debate Sola Scriptura.

At the end of the day, I fear the Roman church has painted itself into a corner. It lives and dies by the pope, and as soon as a pope declares infallibly that gay marriage is ordained by God, then Ebb Tide and others have no defense against heresy. That day will come, most assuredly. However, the Bible stands as an eternal bulwark of truth, and it will always offer a truly unchanging standard.
Had enough?
Already?
hah, I’m just getting warmed up. I have the Word of God at my defense. and you have?
The One, Holy, Catholic and Apostolic Church, outside of which there is no salvation.
Bible's not good enough for you, huh? You had to resort to another book.
The One, Holy, Catholic and Apostolic Church, outside of which there is no salvation.

just keep believing that. See how far that takes you after missing the Rapture!
Hold up…you’re going back to others? Cmon. There is so much freedom…I’m not trying to disparage. BEEN THERE. Let yourself go. Christ is waiting with open arms.

Please expound on your tag line. The one you believe to be infallible.
BTW, Foxes Book of Martyrs also speaks of all the aborted babies found in the catacombs. From all those forced abortions after the priests impregnated them.
The one you refer to as:
“The One, Holy, Catholic and Apostolic Church, outside of which there is no salvation.”
Foxes Book of Martyrs is a historical book that exposes “The One, Holy, Catholic and Apostolic Church”
Hold up…you’re going back to others? Cmon. There is so much freedom…I’m not trying to disparage. BEEN THERE. Let yourself go. Christ is waiting with open arms.
(Lol. I’m catching up…meant to post earlier)
Tell me about the magical soothsayer power of the rosary beads and where it is found in the Bible.
Explain how these are not classified ad idols.
Catholics claim to uphold the Law of Moses right?
Exodus 20:
3 Thou shalt have no other gods before me.
4 Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth.
5 Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them:
I'd argue also that Rome has done the same with its Marian dogmas which contradict inspired Scripture.
Rome has allowed, and encouraged, its followers to wear a scapular in hopes of avoiding the hell-fire.
Imagine trusting your eternal destination to a man-made piece of cloth an apparition told you to wear vs faith in Christ...and only Christ.
Please tell me Ebb tide, what assurance of Salvation has the roman catholic church offered you?
And since you will deflect to James 2, then please expound on how your works have justified your salvation.
“Tell me about the magical soothsayer power of the rosary beads and where it is found in the Bible.”
LOL “magical soothsayer power” LOL
They help you keep track of which prayer you’re on.
I hope you go to heaven and I hope your mental illness gets treated there.
