Does your dog bite?
God's Grace is not maintained by your efforts, it is established by His Promise. Now, if you doubt God would keep His promise because you failed to earn the Grace given, then you are under works of the law not under Grace. That is the great lie of satan which is kept active by religions like Mormonism and Catholicism and Islam, who empower their religion using twisted hermeneutics teaching what causes that men doubt God, doubt that God keeps His Promises.
To deny once saved always saved is to deny the Promise of God is established by Him, not your 'all that you can do to merit such Grace'. God's Promises are not like a yoyo, given then dropped then given again then dropped and replaced by a priest re-blessing you to restore your status in God's Promises.
If you ever come to realize that TRUTH, as presented to you by Hoss and so many more on these threads, then bow you head, say thank you Lord, and be born again from above by the Promise of God, the Grace of God in Christ.
I am SO sorry. I just don't know what came over me...
Bless me father for I have sinned...
What's my penance? How many hail marys do I have to throw? How many have to be caught?
:D

You can tell me that all you want -- PROVE that I am wrong. Or, try answering the question about CCC 841...
Telling me repeatedly, "you are wrong" makes me as wrong as me standing in my garage makes me a car. Proof!!!! Show me where/how/why I am wrong....
But, you won't or you can't. And I'm leaning towards can't right now.

Hi MamaB!
Well you have it right as do all Christians... Jesus is the only answer. We’re not Catholicians, we’re Christians.
:D

“Kneeling before the toilet does the soul as much good as kneeling before a cracker in a golden monstrance” Take care that you do not assume you know the heart of the one kneeling to accept the cracker. Since we believe the act is in remembrance of Him, of what He did for us, the one kneeling may have only Jesus in their thoughts and are being blessed by HIM, by His indwelling Spirit as they do this n remembrance of Him. High Church is not automatically void of His presence ... where two or more are gathered in ... you get the gist. Even the Roman Catholic Church misapplying His word cannot over-ride God’s Promises.
out of curiosity — what’s the source of those stats?
Hoss
Meant to ping you ... I wonder what just ‘Hoss’ will think of all this stuff???
I’d say Amen and Amen!

“That ees not my dog.””
You are wrong.
Sellers was Evelyn Tremble/ James Bond 007. When the original Bond (Niven) was called out of retirement he came up with a plan to name all the agents James Bond 007. Woody Allen played Jimmy Bond.
What one believes does not matter ..The pagans believed their idols were gods.. Israel believed the golden calf was their god .
Remember that the human heart is corrupted and it lies
Jer.17:9 The heart is deceitful above all things and beyond cure. Who can understand it?
You are wrong.
That is the peace that passes all understanding ..
The only thing you have proven is that responding to you (and other prots is a waste of my time.
Thanks that’s a beautiful photo.
BINGO !!!!
