To: one Lord one faith one baptism; presently no screen name
pnsn: “Jesus died ONCE”

oLofob: you seem like an expert in the Faith, how many times does the Church teach Jesus died?

Nobody needs to be an expert to understand plain English.

Hebrews 9:11-12 11But when Christ appeared as a high priest of the good things that have come, then through the greater and more perfect tent ( not made with hands, that is, not of this creation) 12he entered once for all into the holy places, not by means of the blood of goats and calves but by means of his own blood, thus securing an eternal redemption.

Hebrews 9:24-28 24For Christ has entered, not into holy places made with hands, which are copies of the true things, but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God on our behalf. 25Nor was it to offer himself repeatedly, as the high priest enters the holy places every year with blood not his own, 26for then he would have had to suffer repeatedly since the foundation of the world. But as it is, he has appeared once for all at the end of the ages to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself. 27And just as it is appointed for man to die once, and after that comes judgment, 28so Christ, having been offered once to bear the sins of many, will appear a second time, not to deal with sin but to save those who are eagerly waiting for him.

i am happy you posted these verses from Hebrews, the Church accepted Hebrews as canonical ( even though no one is sure who the human author is ) because the book matches the Catholic Faith received from the Apostles perfectly.

but you as a former Catholic already knew that the Church teaches died only ONCE, right??
