Well, the first step is you have to search the Scriptures.

Not if you believe the Messiah; I just posted His parable.

Three Steps
1. Hear the word.
2. Keep it.
3. Bring forth fruit with patience.

I offer the Immaculate Conception of Roman Catholicism as proof for why you search the Scriptures.

Search all you want...it's not in there and Roman Catholicism's own Catholic Encyclopedia admits it.

Hence the need to confirm with the Scriptures what is being heard.

[Elsie]

Hear the word.

As Rome has explained it.
