How can you say that when it’s out there for all to see? Don’t you EVER question anything your church says? We’re supposed to.

Hey, we’ve already got one, and we actually read it.

You just got done saying you didn't need one.

I would think you would realize that’s a common statement, but if you didn’t, sorry. I’m not here to fight either.

Yeah, in your dreams.

You deny everything your preacher tells you to deny?

>>She will be alive after the judgement, like the rest of us.<<

I’m not picking here, I really don’t understand. How can she not be alive when Our Lord promised “Eternal” life? There isn’t a “stop and start” to Eternal. It’s eternal, always, forever.

How can it stop when one leaves the Earth?

Why don’t you get off that hatred kick? We don’t hate you any more than you hate us.

“the hatred kick” is a security blanket. Using it as a talisman to ward off evil, there’s no reason to get out from under it.

Protestants differ from Catholics on the meaning of that scripture and we always will. The Eucharist is not Christ and therefore it cannot save.

It's right there in Scripture, friend, clear as could be.

"Then Jesus said to them: Amen, amen I say unto you: Except you eat the flesh of the Son of man, and drink his blood, you shall not have life in you."

The Eucharist is the body and blood of Christ. Protestants differ from Catholics and Orthodox Christians on this issue because they have to, not because they are teaching the truth.

To base one's entire theology upon Sola Scriptura but reject Christ's clear and unequivocal teaching on the Eucharist is the ultimate paradox.

As a fellow Christian, I want you to have the fullness of the Faith. The Eucharist is a wonderful gift instituted by Christ himself. I pray that you will one day be able to experience the immediacy of Christ's love via the gift of His Real Presence.

What "current darkness"?

In case you haven't noticed the world is in a sad state. We are as blind as we ever were. Like a good mother would, Our Lady guides us back to Jesus. God has always sent his messengers to help and warn us. It is no different today.

Well, it is definitely connected with trying to ward off evil, so you got that part right.

I like the appeal to Sola Scriptura when it suits you. How do you determine when to use it and when not to?

Sorry, I can’t read Calvin because he’s not in Scripture. He’s just a commentator on Scripture with no teaching authority whatsoever.

The Word of God and the revelation of Christ isn’t enough to get you through huh?
