That's wise. No need to bother continuing the futility.
I'll help you again.
Mary's role in the Church is inseparable from her union with Christ and flows directly from it.
You would agree Christ is God?
Yes.
Therefore would you not agree that any 'union' that is 'inseparable' would be = to deity?????
No. As I said already, I aspire to an eventual union with God. It is my destiny, by the grace of God. Doesn't mean I am divine.
Furthemore, you seem to not read English very well.
What is "inseperable" in this sentence is Mary's "role" not her union with Christ.
Take out the propositional phrase "in the Church" and read it again.
Mary's role is inseperable from her union with Christ.
Like I said, she is nothing without Christ. Anything else you read (or mis-read) in this passage must be read in this light.
Good work... gramma.. Unfortualty when boxed in a corner (by scripture) most RCC supporters turn into MOONBATs and fly on to the next post.. Are they VAmpires?.. Sadly some are.. As 8 Billion in legal expenses clear show..
Pit Bull? ;o)
I know of no dead, pagan, blasphemous Roman churches (I've never studied archeology). Nor do I know about this Toronto Airport Church...What is their holy scripture...the maintenance manual for a Boeing 747-400?
Her brazen misrepresentation of Catholic teaching IS blasphemous.
That’s a strange post, since the post just before it (582) and others already demonstrate the bankruptcy of her claim.
Uh, much more than that. To a first century Jew keeping the Law was hundreds of commandments, not just circumcision. Plus, it included hundreds upon hundreds of 'traditions' which Christ rebuked over and over (start with Matthew 23 & 24). This is akin to Roman Catholic sacraments and traditions.
Furthermore the idea that its Christ + sacraments, or Christ + tradition, or Christ + Roman Catholicism is more blasphemy. It slaps Christ in the face and tells Him, "I'm sorry but your suffering and death wasn't enough for me...I need to add to it." You go ahead and do that and hope it works out for you.
When He asks me why He should let me into His Heaven, all I'm going to do is point to the cross and say "It was finished" and throw myself on His mercy.
Well you go ahead and carry on following the teachings of men via popes, and saints or whatever. I’ll stick with what I know came from God. Thanks.
Many don't realize the depths of blasphemy that are contained in the catechism. Thank you for posting that reminder.
What part of Christ’s statement: “It is finished” don’t you understand????? If there was anything more that WE could do would He have said, “Its finished”???
That’s the kind of comment that we all expect from you.
No it is not. As Christians, Paul specifically tells us we are to set aside the obedience to the Jewish law. Instead Christ gives us His new law: the Holy Scripture and Holy Traditions of His Church, the Roman Catholic Church, founded at Pentacost with Peter as its head.
Toronto Airport Church? Apparently you can get “soaked” there: http://www.tacf.org/Default.aspx?tabid=290
(I cannot believe they used that terminology! Talk about a set-up!)
Actually The RCC very strange attention to mary the mother of Jesus flesh.. is a direct MOCKING of the Bride of Christ.. as is the Echarist a MOCKING of the Holy Spirit.. and ultimately Jesus SPirit..
Some people simply don't think thats CUTE...
It does no such thing. Christ instituted the Holy Sacraments as gifts to us.
You bear false witness. Contender Ministries is not a "hate site."
The thread posted by Manfredthewonderdawg, which for some unknown reason the Lead Moderator chose to delete, was NOT from a "hate site," but I do realize EVERY site which exposes the errors of Rome is considered as such by some of its members.
For the record, this is not a "hate site" nor a Jack Chick" site, and it is still unclear why it was pulled when this thread, posted by a Catholic regarding what he considers to be Protestant errors, was allowed to stand.
That’s the type of comment Catholics have been getting from the lot of you over this and scores of other threads. I didn’t make the soup, I only served it.
Many more than you, apparently.
