Quoting exactly what God says in Scripture is not "parroting."
I gave it to you straight, without any interpretation. Just what He said.
Read it again, if you did not understand it the first time. As many times as it takes.
Then ask yourself if you know you have eternal life now.
I do.
I believe what God said.
If you cannot answer that you have eternal life, ask yourself why you don't believe what God said.
>> I do.<<
That’s absurd. You know nothing of the kind, and you nor anyone else will know that they’re saved until it happens. And no matter how many times you make this claim, it just ain’t so. What you’re doing unwittingly is negating the whole meaning of “faith”. You need to ponder the meaning of the virtue of humility because Christ admonished those who simply cry out Lord, Lord and said His response would be that He never knew you. Pride goeth before the fall (Proverbs 16:18). You need to remember that.
This person is deeply deceived, so deceived that he believes even quoting The Messiah’s own words are invalid.
He has no place telling others about True Salvation.
More hypocrisy on the part of Catholics.
Condemning us for our own personal interpretation of Scripture, and then asking for it above and beyond Scripture itself.
They ask us what we believe, and when we point them to Scripture, they disallow it.
