To: Tell It Right

No, you aren’t telling it right :)

18 For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.

As the Bible says, through baptism and living the life as Christ ordained we are already saved (Rom. 8:24, Eph. 2:5–8), an we are also BEING SAVED (1 Cor. 1:18, 2 Cor. 2:15, Phil. 2:12), and we have the hope that we will be saved (Rom. 5:9–10, 1 Cor. 3:12–15).

Like the apostle Paul we are working out our salvation in fear and trembling (Phil. 2:12), with hopeful confidence in the promises of Christ (Rom. 5:2, 2 Tim. 2:11–13).

(tapping my foot) I'm still waiting on you to respond to what I posted on 1st Cor 1:10-17. I've given much attention to what you posted. But you are conveniently ignoring my point that it invalidates apostolic succession, even though you're the one who highlighted v. 10.

The same for what I said about baptism being dunking in v. 16, even though you're the one who highlighted baptism in that verse.

You think you can win a debate by throwing out many arguments hoping something sticks (playing offense). I'm challenging you to show that your beliefs have mettle by defending them.

Wow. Once again you are posting incorrect and false doctrine.

And all in response to myself and other Christians who have patiently tried to clearly point out the simple Gospel message to you.

But as I said upthread - do not pay attention to what any pope, priest or pastor says. Only go by the word of God. Or Christ if you will.

And by doing that you will put away the false teachings of Catholicism.
