You must read Scott Hahn's books...He changes scripture just like you do...
No, there are no weeds in the church...The weeds are in the world...So if there are weeds in the Catholic religion, that's because the Catholic religion is the World, not the church...There are no weed in Jesus Christ's Bride...
Apparently you guys mean an 'empty' church when you say that the gates of hell will not prevail against his church...An empty building...And that's because because God certainly did not prevail when your popes, God's men on Earth murdered people for not bowing down to them or for killing each other or stealing from the pot or living as queers...And if God wasn't prevailing, who was???
So it was the empty buildings that hell wouldn't prevail against, eh???
But here's a clue...If the building is empty, there is no church/Bride there...
Do you seriously want us to believe you actually read Scott Hahn's books? If so, please give me couple of examples so that I can check them against his books and Scripture.
