If I am misusing the definitions of the Church, by all means please correct me. I guess that I'm still confused as to which ones I misused. Could you point them out to me again please?

Perhaps it's easy for you to forget; no one can read your mind. But it's not so easy for Bible-believing Christians to forget the errors you've already admitted you made.

Mark, you wrongly attributed your church's belief in "infused" righteousness to the Calvinists, when "infused" righteousness is the belief and statement of your own catechism (as you were shown from the catechism). However, the word "infused" appears nowhere in Scripture, nor in any Protestant denomination I know of, most especially not among the Reformed.

MARKBSNR'S ERROR HERE
POST 9,917

As the Bible tells us, we are saved by Christ's "imputed" righteousness, and not our own. His obedience saves; His righteousness saves; His sacrifice saves, which are "imputed" to us (reckoned to our account) by God alone.

You were corrected in post 10,043 which also listed the other posts that corrected your error -- Harley (post 9,909), Frumanchu (10,027), me (post 9,921).

To: Dr. Eckleburg

I am concerned that I am misusing or misdefining terms used by the Church.

The One Holy Catholic and Apostolic Church. I do not consider any of the hundreds of Reformed Churches part of the Catholic Church; not by the Catholic Church’s choice but by the Protestants.

Now, with each Protestant church having its own set of rules, definitions, confessions and doctrines, I do ask pardon when I don’t get them right. And if I inadvertently insert traditional Christianity’s terms and beliefs into an essay on some modern day religion, I do ask pardon for that as well.

There are many more Protestant beliefs than the collection of Reformed, Dr. E. and sometimes the clamour makes things a little difficult to follow.
