Yes, the universal catholic church, made up of those who believe in Him. It’s not a denomination called the Catholic church. It’s all of us who believe. The Catholic church is only one part of it.

Boy, the stuff you learn here, LOL.

One glance at the thousands of pleas to Mary for salvation is all it takes to realize Rome often teaches one thing and practices another.

"Jesus answered them, and said, My doctrine is not mine, but his that sent me." -- John 7:16And when He Who sent Jesus teaches us more of His doctrine, through the Holy Spirit, the source is the same.

The false doctrine sola scriptura does not appear in Timothy or any other Scripture.

Well, now that Protestant is a term claimed by Calvinist for themselves... LOLOL. Where do you get this stuff?
If you're hoping to stir up the pot between Calvinists and non-Calvinists, you'll have to do better than that.
Thankfully, threads like this show the overwhelming agreement most Protestants (Calvinists included) have concerning God and men's salvation...
"Be not afraid; only believe." -- Mark 5:36
That the RCC is compelled to embroider God's grace with the filthy rags of men's good works simply displays Rome's myopia.
Pray for eyes to see.

AMEN, dungeonmaster. Good point.

Cardinal Law was appointed to a cushy position as archpriest of St. Mary Major Basilica in Rome by Pope John Paul II. Possibly as a reward for his fine work in Boston. Yep. Again, Rome says one thing and does quite another.

Ignorant and crude comes to mind.

To: Marysecretary
Amen. Either God has given us a new heart and new eyes and new ears and a renewed mind, all by the new birth of the Holy Spirit, or we remain in darkness, looking elsewhere for our salvation.

“The Lord made Simon alone, whom he named Peter, the “rock” of his Church”
Not to beat a dead horse here but Jesus is actually using a pun here at Peter's expense. He is saying “you (Peter) are a stone, a movable, rolling stone (petros) and upon this huge immovable rock (petra)(either the confession or Jesus Himself)I am in the process of building my called out assembly.” He had already begun the assembly with John's disciples and it was now growing and ebbing as more disciples came and left with His message.
The assembly was not institutionalized, but came together loosely as the Holy Spirit moved.

Thank you so much for sharing your insights and those excellent Scriptures! Truly, the words of God are spirit and they are life.
It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, [they] are spirit, and [they] are life. – John 6:63
The words of men are not spirit and they are not life. To God be the glory!
To: Petronski
Keep believing that Petronski. To your detriment.
To: OLD REGGIE
Well, let’s see if my answer is satisfactory...
