Alex, I see all the scriptures you posted in several different posts. How are you coming up with your summaries? Level with me bro. When I was a member of the Roman Catholic Church (there, I didn’t say RCC) I was always told I needed a priest to interpret scripture for me. Is this no longer in affect, or are you doing YOPIOS again? 😁 It’s ok if you do. I am merely asking. It’s been decades since I left the Roman Catholic Church (there, I didn’t say RCC again) so maybe the interpretation issue has been changed. By all means, enlighten me, and feel free to demolish my stuff. 😇🙏😝🤣😆

How are you coming up with your summaries [of Matthew 25:34-40 and Ephesians 2:4-10]?

I did not provide a summary. I posted them in the context of the statement in 503, where, perhaps due the Protestant ignorance of the Holy Scripture, these passages are said to be a "blaring contradiction" and "double-speak".

Roman Catholic double-speak that says we are "saved by grace" but then "judged according to our works"
You are right that confirmed Catholics are called to explain the Holy Scripture but not to interpret it. I am a confirmed Catholic. If another confirmed Catholic wishes to bring my "summaries" into question, I'd be happy to discuss and ready to stand corrected.
