Ever been on O’Reilly’s No Spin Zone?
Marysecretary; What is that that entitles you to determine who is saved or not? Who gives you these great powers of universal knowledge? What compels you to you to insult others, who love God, like you do, just differently? Realize that those slandering the Pope are referencing their slanderous quotes of the Pope with links to posts in Freerepublic. From my perspective, the Taliban who denounce a country, are less wrong than those who denounce and slander believers in God. My reverence for God would not allow me to do that. Humility, which God asks of us, and fear for my soul, would not allow me to pretend that I am God to determine who is saved or not. I just don’t understand that mentality. I completely understand that you don’t agree with Catholicism, but you take it to a level that is sad. Our God is love and compassion. You are distorting His image.
Nah, they’re made up of commun-ists.
(they) "...have by no means been deprived of significance and importance in the mystery of salvation."
How significant? What level of importance?
No double talk. Give us the straight talk version.
Really? What was that?
She’s right where she belongs. It’s where God has placed her. Her knowledge is astounding, like some Catholic freepers, but I believe she already HAS the peace of Christ without being a part of the ‘one true church.’ (Actually, she IS part of the one true church—the Body of Christ.)
May we all come to really know, feel, and understand Gods love. Come Holy Spirit and fill the hearts of your faithfull.
It's tough to discuss theology with RC's because any criticism is more often then not viewed as an attack on their faith. It has been explained to me, by RC's, that they view support of their church as support of their faith. So when your Pope makes a stupid comment, calling Christians defective, and is criticized for it the attack dogs come out and claim that their church is being smeared by those that say the Pope said something stupid.
IIRC, the only ones who got upset were the Christians who believed in ecumenism. I didn't get upset because it was just a stupid comment from a guy that I don't associate with.
Scriptural errors such as sola scriptura and sola fide.
Tacky and Gross
Didn't happen.
Whew, that IS a relief.
Mary reads the Bible and believes the words of Jesus Christ.
"Be not afraid; only believe." -- Mark 5:36
Agreed. The errors of Calvinism lead to some whoppers.
I really wish God never gave us free will. Or at least I wish I had just enough free will to ask God to take it away from me.
No, because the minute any of us walked into it, it would be defective. (Because we aren’t exactly perfect.)
Reads? Believes?
Marysecretary told me Mary is dead.
