[Mark17]

First let me say, I hate Latin. I hated it when I was a catholic altar boy. I hated it when I took it at the catholic high school I went to. I prefer to use English words. Only scripture and only faith. Yes, I ONLY accept that. Nothing else. On that, we will probably have to agree to disagree, probably forever. Maybe we do not mean the same thing by WBR. let me give you my definition. A WBR, to me, means it is a combination of faith and good works, either to get saved, or stay saved. If it is 95% faith, and 5% works, to endure, or to keep it, it is a WBR. I do not accept that. If the Catholic Church is not a WBR, according to that definition, then those priests and nuns gave me some bad information. Without trying to mind read, I have a feeling I know what you are thinking. You might possibly be thinking that I believe I can get saved by faith and then live like Hell. Am I right? I can answer that thought with one word: NO. It can't be done.

Now, I would like to hear your plan of salvation. What will you use to get to Heaven? Preferably the short and to the point version. I will pray that we see each other at the Pearly Gates. 🇵🇭😎🙉🙈🙊

Brother, I would guess every time the Gospel is heard, satan sends his little whispers to convey this exact doubt: "You might possibly be thinking that I believe I can get saved by faith and then live like Hell."

The corollary to that is his little nuance that Salvation must be forcing a believer to be a little Jesus on Earth, so oh how 'you' will miss all that fun stuff you now know.

And the accompanying corollary, if the seed is too good to ignore, 'Can I really be good enough to someday deserve that?'
