If you REALLY have faith in Jesus Christ, why then, do you doubt the path that He laid out for us......it's plain and clear, and has been for over 2,000 years, that He designed, instituted, guided, protected His church through many periods of tribulation.....and that includes the protestant {note the word} revolution.....You can't just decide...after 1,600 years of Christianity, that they have been doing it all wrong and that you can make up your own rules....it CAN'T POSSIBLY work that way....In our little town of 20,000 there are probably 20 different "denominations" all of which assume they are the right way....they aren't; and the Catholic church is still, and has always been the ONE, HOLY, CATHOLIC, AND APOSTOLIC church founded by Christ. You don't get to make up your own rules when it comes to being an American and you don't get to make up your own rules when it comes to being a Christian....
That's one hell of a strawman you have there, right in the very center of your major (and oft-repeated, even though much disproved, already been falsified) thesis.
Can you ever say ANYTHING else?
If I REALLY have faith in Christ then according to you I have to be a Roman Catholic?
That brings us right back to the point we were discussing and which you repeatedly sidestepped. You claimed people were saved by obeying the commandments, being “good” and generally being worthy of salvation. You claimed if someone rejected the Roman Catholic church they were rejecting Jesus Christ. When I reminded you that your OWN Catechism contradicts you and you were “doing it your own way”, you changed the subject.
Now you want to come back full circle and presume I can’t really have faith in Jesus Christ if I reject the Roman Catholic church. Trying to dialog with you is akin to running in circles - we never get anywhere. I really have better things to occupy my time than playing this game. You know what I believe and why I believe it. I’m pretty sure I know your belief. We’re at a stalemate - as usual.
Have a good night.
