Are you upset? That would be a shame.
Excuse me, but this is the grown-ups table. Grow up if you want to participate.
I wasn’t at all sure I had that straight.
Thanks for the correction.
Between the two of you,
There’s a deeper, broader, richer set of RC history and experiences than probably almost all random collections of 10 RC’s hereon, I’d wager.
It's the only choice that some have when an ex- of their organization speaks up and exposes the organization for what it really is, RC or not.
They can't deny the truth of what is said by someone with experience, so discrediting them is the only tactic left.
I've seen it happen many a time on the LDS threads as those who have left the LDS organization expose the blatant lies the LDS teaches.

Except maybe for the rabid clique types.
They sound like they were born sucking on a Rosary; kissing toes of statues and genuflecting in stereo and have kept at it every waking moment until the fossilization process started in—which is obviously well along.
Paranois will destroy ya.
I don’t think the RC’s have the least excuse for any whining in such regards. Their rock throwing surpasses that of all the other groups combined many times over.
NOPE. Sorry to disappoint . . . sort of.
Winding down after a long day. About to hit the shower.
Very, very calm.
No, actually the prosperity gospel is a Pat Robertson thing.
Protestants mostly adhere to the Gospel of Jesus Christ; you know, the one that the Papists rejected in favor of the worship of Semiramis, the mother of God, Queen of Heaven.

LOL.
It would be shocking if any of the rabid clique folks
could
TELL THE DIFFERENCE between
2 year old mentalities so chronically wallowed in by their in-grown groups . . . and 82 year old accomplished wise maturity.
However, to be fair, a 2 year old’s brain is not fully developed.
ROFLOL!!!
INDEED. QUITE SO.

BTW, what would I have to be concerned about. I'm NOT Dr E!

Much to the thankfulness of her hubby.
ACTUALLY
GOD SAID
HE WOULD
THAT WE PROSPER AND BE IN HEALTH
EVEN AS OUR SOULS PROSPER.
GOD’S IDEA.
Kenneth Hagin popularized it so much that verse is often called “Hagin 11:24” IIRC.
Pat Robertson believes the Scripture. He’s not a wild prosperity Gospel sort of person.
Beautiful non sequitur. Just lovely.
I’m not surprised the level of assessment/discernment is evidently not up to the discrimmination challenge construed as presented.
Perhaps the difference will be easer to distinguish next time.
Tossing out the rubber dictionary might help.
You misspelled “discrimination.”
Are you planning to give eyes to the blind? Are you going to give ears to the deaf? Will you give life to a dead man?
No. When Christ told us to "follow Him" He meant for us to believe in Him as Lord, God and Savior. And with that faith in Christ comes the good fruits of the Holy Spirit who is progressively sanctifying us into His image.
Roman Catholics presume salvation is earned, and it is not. Read your Bibles.
But to him that worketh not, but believeth on him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness." -- Romans 4:4-5"Now to him that worketh is the reward not reckoned of grace, but of debt.
Could Paul have been any clearer? Men perform righteous, selfless acts because the Holy Spirit has transformed them into new men with new hearts and renewed minds who willingly perform the good deeds of Jesus Christ.
That is part of men's sanctification. It is not where our salvation lies. Salvation is by Christ's righteousness alone, mercifully imputed to the sinner by God to bring that sinner into repentance for his sins and gratitude for the gift of God's free grace.
Gee, the subject sure got changed fast enough when I wouldn’t take being called a liar without exposing it.
Imagine that.
