For by grace you have been saved through faith; and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God; not as a result of works, so that no one may boast. (Eph 2:8)

Catholics who receive salvation by faith in the finished work of Jesus Christ are saved. Those that add works have not saving faith and are not saved. The Roman Catholic Church is not part of the church of Jesus Christ but I know catholics who have Christ. I also know and have met catholics that only hope to enter heaven and put their faith in something other than the finished work of Jesus Christ on the cross, such as purgatory. It is more than sad it is evil and God will not be mocked by this religion of man.

It seems you are talking in circles here.

I wonder what I did to deserve a private response from you. Before lecturing me about Roman Catholicism, please read about it and understand what the Church actually teaches about Salvation. You don't.
