Your description is the human one..that is how that rabbi could judge himself
Could you explain what you mean? I don't have any idea of what you think you're saying.

Men judge things by the standard of men ..God is all Holiness, things we do not think of as sin ,offend God.

In the Rabbis mind he had kept the law, but God sees the heart..

Remember when Paul said that as a Jew he was faultless?. That is because he was judging himself by the law.. but once he was saved he saw his sin and that he was not faultless.

Recently I heard a quote from a pastor that said something like this..

"there is enough sin in my prayer to damn me for eternity "

We can think we are doing things pleasing to God that are actually an abomination to Him..His ways are not our ways

It is not a game Judith...I do not think Catholics know what John 3:16 means..

Jhn 3:17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.
Jhn 3:18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.

Should read:

“His ways are not your (plural) ways.” You did say “we” and “our.”

;-D

Why do you think Catholics do not know what John 3:16 means? Are you going by your own experience when you were a so-called Catholic? How do you know what is in the heart or mind of any Catholic?

A question regarding “all have sinned”... Do babies sin?

Since God's word says ALL have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God, the answer is completely clear.

With respect I would have no idea as I am not God. But if they die with mortal sin on their soul they are in risk of going to hell. If they die with venial sin on their soul they will undergo the purification of purgatory.

Seen a lot of Catholics including priest claim that you guy won't know if you are saved until you see Jesus face to face, at the judgment...

Grant Lord, That our eyes may be fully opened so we may submit to you in full faith as did your Holy Mother.

Mary didn't have faith...She didn't need it...

I agree. I await in joyful hope for the coming of my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Only then will we see justice and peace restored. Till then I’ll err on the side of caution.

I always understood that it was the Catholic position that Jesus wouldn't show up until there WAS justice and peace restored on earth, thru the A-Millennial Catholic Church...

It can’t.

Scripture addresses that as well.

Deception is a powerful tool

I think you are the one who posted a link from the Blue Letter Bible way upthread.

Thanks! It looks like a wonderful resource.

:-)

This is another site I like for Bible reference. It allows you to bring up one verse in several versions on one page for comparison and has links to the original Greek and Hebrew and a Strong’s.

My primary contention is that the canon of Scripture has remained unchanged, regardless of all the discussion, arguments, etc.

You are more than welcome to have your opinion as to what is warranted or unwarranted, as am I.

"You have acknowledged Luther was not the first to challenge the list which Trent ratified..."

There is discussion, debate, disagreement on many things. We've been over the lists and at this point are beating a dead horse. At any rate, I will agree, that "Trent ratified" the canon of scripture that the Church had previously defined.

I hesitate to post a link, but will; matt16.18.freeyellow.com; I just skimmed it but seems to get into the kinds of things you enjoy; most of it is way more detail than I want or need.
