I'll give you one thing, annalex. you ARE persistent. wrong, but persistent. And if persistency were required for salvation, you would be a shoe-in. Unfortunately for you, it isn't. But don't let that stop you in your pursuit of persistency.

No anti-Catholic is the arbiter of right and wrong. And I am certain that nowhere did Annalex say that persistence was required for salvation. Christ Jesus, Risen Son of the Living Almighty God is sufficient, and HE knows who is "right" and "wrong." Where did any protestant get the authority to judge? That's hilarious!

I, too, reverence Mary, the mother of the incarnate 2nd Person of the Holy Trinity.

All believers are of one sheepfold, Sister Judith. Let’s rejoice at that truth despite the naysayers who reject Christian Unity as outlined in John 17:23. “23I in them and you in me. May they be brought to complete unity to let the world know that you sent me and have loved them even as you have loved me.”

Let’s “overcome evil with good.”

Ah, I can always count on you to fail to see the obvious. of COURSE annalex never said anything about persistence being required for salvation, Judith Anne. I said he was persistent. Never let it be said that Judith Anne saw the humor in a post. It was a joke about persistence. Do you eat a lot of dry toast?

If I am wrong about the scripture, there should be a scripture that proves me wrong.
