The fruit of the Spirit is a different subject.

uncontrollable laughter-the flesh

self control-the Spirit

Walk in the Spirit, not in the flesh.

 

[Dan_473]

Reasons why I could personally never chose to be Catholic:​

Baptist prospective

1st of all, comparing spiritual things with spiritual, I feel that as old as the Roman Catholic Church is; it still has not worked out it's kinks.
- ​

1 Corinthians 2:13

(KJV Bible)

I feel like if I'm going to partake congregationally to worship, it is a absolute must that i am 100% comfortable with the Church and its Doctrines, all elements combined.
- ​

Galatians 1:6-7

(of ​

Galatians 1:1-12

) (KJV Bible)

It is well known most Baptist have issues with Catholicism because of the Catholic claim of: transubstantiation. Within the ritual of a catholic mass, the pope holds a piece of bread, turns his back, and while his back is turned. Proclaims that it "literally" turns into the physical flesh of Christ.

3rdly, Christ is the head of the Church, There is absolutely no need for a Pope. It is opposite of scriptural and from what Iv heard, Pagan derived.
- ​

1 Corinthians 11:3

(KJV Bible)

God Bless you,
I have large hopes that you find a profitable King James Version Only proud and preaching Church near you & find the Bible way to Heaven.​

protestants assume the bible is top be interpreted by the individual, Catholics assume interpretation by Christians as a group, that is, the church.

those assumptions account for the differences, imo

 

[Nehemiah6]

protestants assume the bible is top be interpreted by the individual, Catholics assume interpretation by Christians as a group, that is, the church.

"The church" meaning the RCC, and more specifically the clerical hierarchy culminating in the pope. One would think that that should make for better interpretation, but in fact it is the exact opposite. The Catechism of the Catholic Church is full of misinterpretations.

 

[so-jesus-e-deus]

Because nothing that is done in the religion have to do with the gospel's essence.

yes, the Catholic interpretation is wrong

relative to

many personal interpretations

 

[MatthewG]

Well, Catholics, they believe in the Lord Jesus Christ.

That is good enough for me to know that, there are Good Lord Loving Catholics out there.

I don't cast any judgement on what they do at there mass meetings... Who cares, as long as we can know that the Lord Jesus Christ is there with those who believes in God, and the Lord Jesus Christ, what can you really say?

Other than target the church and it's doctrines if you want to.

 

[Nehemiah6]

Well, Catholics, they believe in the Lord Jesus Christ.

To believe in the Lord Jesus Christ is to believe that salvation (justification) is by grace alone through faith alone in Christ alone. Not including all the sacraments as being necessary for salvation.

And we must always distinguish between Roman Catholics (the victims) and the RCC and its hierarchy (the victimizers). Exposing and rejecting the LIES of the Catholic Church is not the same as attacking individual Roman Catholics (who are generally deceived).

 

[MatthewG]

I need to go to ten catholic churches to get a feel of the general people, and what goes on...

But either way, I don't believe I can deny the fact that there are people in the churches, that love the Lord Jesus Christ.

So yes, all you can do is just share and anayliaze the doctrines and the practices that they do use, which i never seen personally but know they do some weird stuff or whatever. But, like I said, how can you really say what they believe in their heart if you never really ask them?

Reasons why I could personally never chose to be Catholic:​

Yet you think you choose? You might have been called to repentance, but many are called, few are chosen.

Whereunto he called you by our gospel, to the obtaining of the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ. For this cause also thank we God without ceasing, because, when ye received the word of God which ye heard of us, ye received it not as the word of men, but as it is in truth, the word of God, which effectually worketh also in you that believe.

And Jesus said, For judgment I am come into this world, that they which see not might see; and that they which see might be made blind. 40 And some of the Pharisees which were with him heard these words, and said unto him, Are we blind also? John 9:39-40

Why I personally could never choose to be you:
I don't think KJV is God.

Honestly, until you get out of your KJVOnly trip, it really doesn't matter what you personally will, or will not choose.

 

[DJ2]

Still afraid of The Holy Spirit I see

2 Samuel 6 (KJV)

14 And David danced before the Lord with all his might; and David was girded with a linen ephod.
15 So David and all the house of Israel brought up the ark of the Lord with shouting, and with the sound of the trumpet.
16 And as the ark of the Lord came into the city of David, Michal Saul's daughter looked through a window, and saw king David leaping and dancing before the Lord; and she despised him in her heart.

Strange that you would use this verse. I am unaware of church dancing with all their might half naked. What church is doing this and are there any you tube clips, not that I would want to watch.

Is this a verse from the Bible? If so why have you not shared this before?

KJVO cult versus Roman Catholicism?

Pass me a Rosary...

 

[tourist]

Well as an ex-catholic i am gald when people declare that they will never be catholics

[finaldesire]

See this is why I open these threads, like (Does the bible save us?)

If you believe and love Jesus with all your heart I dont see any reason you'd want to be with a brood of vipers. Not saying there bad people they've just been conned by Father Religion. I for one wouldnt step foot in a Catholic church

You will need more than a Rosary. Request absolution.
