Check your church laws that were established at Trent.
Canon 9. If anyone says that the sinner is justified by faith alone, meaning that nothing else is required to cooperate in order to obtain the grace of justification, and that it is not in any way necessary that he be prepared and disposed by the action of his own will, let him be anathema.
A couple more laws that you might want to consider:
Canon 19. If anyone says that nothing besides faith is commanded in the Gospel, that other things are indifferent, neither commanded nor forbidden, but free; or that the ten commandments in no way pertain to Christians, let him be anathema.
Canon 24. If anyone says that the justice received is not preserved and also not increased before God through good works, but that those works are merely the fruits and signs of justification obtained, but not the cause of its increase, let him be anathema.
Canon 27. If anyone says that there is no mortal sin except that of unbelief, or that grace once received is not lost through any other sin however grievous and enormous except by that of unbelief, let him be anathema.
Obviously the Bible being translated into the vernacular and disseminated among believers created a lot of problems for the RCC.
I note that in your reply to me, you pinged a gtoup of people that I do not care to discuss anything with. So, I’ll just thank you for the courtesy of your reply, pray that God blesses you, and go to a different thread.
How interesting. All the vitriol slung our way claiming works are necessary then proclaiming the RCC doesn’t teach that only to be shown from their own Canons that indeed they do. The spinning and dodging and weaving and double speak works only to entrap. I shudder to think of the wrath God has in store for such an organization that leads so many people with their lies.
NICE!
