Let's get back to this as this is what started our conversation.

Your quote was:

"This is not an avowing of Universalism on my part --- I believe this to be an error --- but it is part of the Catholic belief that, though we are bound by the Sacraments, God is not bound by them."

I'd like for you to clarify what you believe to be an error. You may have to go back to the original post, but I'd like to understand what you are saying here.

We'll come back to once saved always saved later.

Sorry. I see I expressed myself confusingly.

"This is not an avowing of Universalism on my part --- I believe this to be an error --- "

I believe Universalism to be an error. I do not avow it and the Catholic Church does not avow it.

Re-reading it with the rest of the sentence, it comes off garbled. (Wince.) Thanks for pointing this out.
