Hey eithor the council of Trent is right or it is wrong..talk to your church not to me

Hi Mom!

You feelin' OK today? You been checked for dementia? (only kiddin') How's the flame suit? LOL!

Mom, you don't understand what the Church means by there is no salvation outside the Church (the anathema associated with this cannot pertain to Mother Teresa because she never said anything of the sort)!

We're talkin' to you because you lack the true meaning of the anathema. Read and reread with an open heart the following...

CONGREGATION FOR THE DOCTRINE OF THE FAITH

DECLARATION
"DOMINUS IESUS"
ON THE UNICITY AND SALVIFIC UNIVERSALITY
OF JESUS CHRIST AND THE CHURCH

Mother Teresa means nothing to me..

She should!! She is the best model of a Christ-like life in modern times that we've had. Would that the world was filled with her type of Christian. But I guess you wouldn't understand any of this because you believe in predestination and no free will and therefore we have no role to play in our personal salvation and relationship to Christ. You don't believe in ANY good works having to do with salvation. We Catholics believe that we are saved by grace, and our faith and works cooperate with it!

PS: The Church has never condemned ANYONE to HELL! It has excommunicated but never condemned to hell. Calvinists may do that! I know from experience! ;^)

In the Bible we read that they thought Jesus was a nut..so your tongue in cheek "joke " blesses me in His name

Thomas I may be nuts ...But I know something very few Catholics (you included it seems) do not know .There is no salvation in works.Mother Teresa will not go to heaven or hell based on her works anymore than you or I will...

The Council of Trent cursed those that were reformers with excommunication..Mother Teresa words put her in that class

I also know Rome does not decide the fate of any soul..that is done by Him that sits on the right hand of the Father..so Rome may call someone a saint that burns in the pit and it will not change their fate...I also know that those they cursed for leaving to follow Him are blessed and safe in the arms of the Father..

Council of Trent

Canon 9. If anyone says that the sinner is justified by faith alone,[114] meaning that nothing else is required to cooperate in order to obtain the grace of justification, and that it is not in any way necessary that he be prepared and disposed by the action of his own will, let him be anathema.

So how many non Catholic Saints are there cannonized...cause she is out or Trent was wrong:>)
