Now that I have been liberated from the OTC, I know that ALL sins are mortal sins. Get over it bro.

If so, how do you expect to get into Heaven?

God’s promises of grace, silly.

Does Ephesians chapter 2 ring a bell?

Probably not; you still deny that Paul even wrote it.

[Mark17]

If so, how do you expect to get into Heaven?

The same way everyone else does, by grace through faith. It’s not difficult Ebb. Even you could do it. I DO wonder sometimes, however, if you are even interested in Heaven. My opinion, and it is just an opinion is, that you are not.

Through the forgiveness Jesus gives us, which concept seems to be beyond the comprehension of virtually every Catholic I've met.

John 1:12 But to all who did receive him, who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God,

Romans 10:9-13 because, if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart one believes and is justified, and with the mouth one confesses and is saved. For the Scripture says, “Everyone who believes in him will not be put to shame.” For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek; for the same Lord is Lord of all, bestowing his riches on all who call on him. For “everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.”

1 John 1:9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

Here's a newsflash for you, ebb.

God WANTS to save people and keep them out of hell.

I know that's a foreign concept to Catholics since the God they present is one who harsh, intolerant, easily angered, impatient, constantly needing to be appeased and placated.

It even portrays Jesus that was by referring to Him as a Judge and praying to Mary because they think she has the compassion that God and Jesus lack. And they've created this mythology that God and Jesus cannot refuse any request that Mary makes of them.

So they go through Mary to thinking that they can get brownie points with God for it and He wouldn't condemn them for every little failing or sin they commit.
