Of course I believe in Salvation by faith vs works. Of course I believe in a focus on GOD ALONE. But I suspect that God can get individual RC’s to that kind of place with Him via at least several routes.

The Roman Catholic, like everyone else is going to have to reject what he has been taught and believe what the Bible says, no different then any other unbeliever does.

God is indeed long suffering, not wanting any to perish, but the route to salvation is narrow, not broad.

Many Roman Catholics are hearing the true Gospel on these threads and are going to have to deal with the truth of what they have read.

That is how God's grace operates, by getting the truth to those who need to hear it and those who reject it will be judged by those words they rejected.

So, for example, if "the Roman Catholic" rejects what the sola scriptura crowd says, according to the grace of God, the sola scriptura crowd gets to judge the RC?

I'm just trying to figure out what you're saying. That GOD is going to have the sola scriptura crowd judge the RCs that do not reject their own church?

Catholics believe what the Bible says.

Many Roman Catholics are hearing the true Gospel on these threads...

And with the true Gospel, they are also hearing a boatload of lies about Catholicism.
