I do say that Protestantism is a systematic lie about the Gospel, chiefly because of the way Protestantism spins it away from the

Catholic truths of salvation being by grace alone through faith and works,

Eph 2:8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:
Eph 2:9 Not of works, lest any man should boast.

Gal 1:9 As we said before, so say I now again, If any man preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed.

Not much more needs to be said...You condemn yourself and your Catholic religion without any help from us...

Let the Lurkers behold...

Me: Catholic truths of salvation being by grace alone through faith and works

You: Eph 2:8-9

. What I explained to you is a full quote from Eph 2 on this matter,

[8] For by grace you are saved through faith, and that not of yourselves, for it is the gift of God; [9] Not of works, that no man may glory. [10] For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus in good works, which God hath prepared that we should walk in them.

Naturally, if you cut one verse out the rest might look like no works is involved in the salvation at all. Cut verse 8 and it would seem that faith is not needed either.

Protestantism is the dark art of lying about the Gospel, and believing their own lies.

Gal 1:9 As we said before, so say I now again, If any man preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed

Indeed. Or in the words of the Council,

CANON IX.-If any one saith, that by faith alone the impious is justified; in such wise as to mean, that nothing else is required to co-operate in order to the obtaining the grace of Justification, and that it is not in any way necessary, that he be prepared and disposed by the movement of his own will; let him be anathema.

ON JUSTIFICATION
