Christians read the words Christ spoke and don’t add to them...

Nonsense, when challenged on interpretation, Protestants do nothing BUT add to God's Word by interpreting the Scriptures by their doctrine to justify their doctrine.

At least Catholics have the intellectual honesty to live by EVERY Word that proceeds from the mouth of God, and not pretend our eisegesis was God's idea.

Sorry, but I’m talking about Christians. I have no idea who you are referring to.

“ At least Catholics have the intellectual honesty to live by EVERY Word that proceeds from the mouth of God, and not pretend our eisegesis was God’s idea.”

Little of Catholicism is found in Scripture.

It is why they add the amorphous idea of “tradition.”

Then they use the See &Say hermeneutic.

Then they use the logical fallacy of Appeal to authority.

In 18 years year, I’ve yet to meet a Roman who knew the Scriptures or could teach his way out of a wet paper bag.

If you have a specific verse you want to discuss to illustrate your ideas, go for it.

I’m also absolutely sure that you don’t even know what Christians actually teach about doing good works.

Attack that strawman, brah.
