Your comment: “The RCC lied to me about many things, but the one thing that made me leave without even a second thought was their lies about Salvation.”
You drank the kool-aid. So you believe that Jesus forgave all of your future sins when you say that you are saved? Is that really logical? Why did Jesus give His Apostles and their successors the authority to forgive sins or to retain them?
Do protestants read the whole Bible or just ignore the parts that they don’t like?
Your comment: “Would you rather trust God’s Word or your “church” organization about your Eternal Destiny?”
I trust the infallible authority that Jesus gave to the Catholic Church to Preach the Good News and Baptize all nations rather than the fallible interpretation of heretical men and women.
For your sake, I hope you reconsider before your death as a Baptized Catholic you have the opportunity to make a confession with absolution before you die.
Catholic pedophile priests have zero spiritual authority ... except to do evil as their devil father directs them. Shall I post a few of the hallmarks of your Catholic Faith religion?
Jesus never gave any authority to any “Roman” organization.
You guys don’t even follow His Words!
Your entire post is a joke and you can’t back up squat with your fallacies with Scripture.
You better read up on true salvation amigo.
Hell fire is eternal....
ALL our sins were future sins to Jesus when He died for them.
And yes, ALL the sin of the believer is forgiven when he turns to Christ and is born again/born from above.
Colossians 2:13-15 And you, who were dead in your trespasses and the uncircumcision of your flesh, God made alive together with him, having forgiven us all our trespasses, by canceling the record of debt that stood against us with its legal demands. This he set aside, nailing it to the cross.
He disarmed the rulers and authorities and put them to open shame, by triumphing over them in him.
The whole record of our sin debt to God was canceled and nailed to the cross. All of the sin is covered, whether we confess it or not.
And you cannot tell us, and seriously expect us to believe, that people are capable of remembering and confessing more than a small fraction of the sin they commit each day.
Anyone who thinks they can do that is self-deceived.Jesus did not establish Roman Catholicism. Romanists simply make that claim retroactively, stating that they are the ones He meant therefore, they have the authority etc......
And then they fabricate history for the first few centuries of the church to try to bolster that claim.
Now that's rich coming from a Catholic...

We will continue to disagree until you can show me the truth of your beliefs (not your mere general opinion) or you learn to accept That Jesus trusted and authorized His Catholic Church To Preach God’s Truth of Salvation and to Baptize all nations with the keys to the kingdom of Heaven instead of your man made interpretation and doctrine.
Rev_20:4 And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years.
Do you know what that is??? Of course you don't otherwise you'd know why Jesus gave his Apostles (not successors...there are no successors...) the authority to forgive sins or retain them...
And you would know that apostles forgiving and retaining sins has nothing to do with the church, or even the Catholic Church...
You would know what the Kingdom of Heaven is instead of just throwing words around to non suspecting Catholics like you know something...
And you'd know what this verse means...
Rom_4:8 Blessed is the man to whom the Lord will not impute sin.
Meaning your made a fallible judgment to trust in a church that has presumed to infallibly declare she is and will be perpetually infallible whenever she speaks in accordance with her infallibly defined (scope and subject-based) formula, which renders her declaration that she is infallible, to be infallible, as well as all else she accordingly declares.
How convenient.
