Roboop why would I bother to speak to you about Mary when you clearly HATE a denomination because of a close relative who you truly believe is not in heaven. You are the judge, not me. But to answer your questions... Yes to all the above. My eyes have been opened, not closed. Remember that where there is too much light we can go bling, and I believe more in the power of Jesus over his church than most of you who doubt every person in the planet is the devil unless they agree with you. The amount of HATE in Christian Chat is unbelievable, and can wear any person down. I came here to make friends be lifted and discuss theology. Things get heated too quick and there is no control on anyone who is not catholic, it is a free forum to insult us. (Banned for catholic heresy) Really!
God has more power than any human or spirit, or what ever else there might exist which I do not know of. But you simply choose to believe satan overpower Jesus and his church. Yes the Roman Catholic Church which is Christian and you do not believe because a personal agenda. I pray that God helps you and this site and that your eyes be open, and if I am still able to remain in the Christian Chat, because you banned Catholics for defending their faith, then I would gladly open a forum and show you why she is Immaculate, Virgin and Mother.
Hey Rock022
On the contrary, you're the one who brought up this whole issue. And even my previous post that you refer to was prompted by many cases of Catholics posting heresy in our forum, and then other Christians getting the impression that we tolerate it since it's all over our site. We want to welcome Catholics and all but don't blame us for responding honestly when people post extreme error or heresy, and really promote it. Responding honestly to error is not hate.
I honestly don't feel any hate toward you or any of the thousands of Catholics who are all around me in this Catholic country. Nor do I go around correcting them all but when there's an opportunity to talk about God then yes I love to exalt Jesus and may feel the need to point out that we shouldn't exalt any other human being to the same level of Jesus (e.g., saying Mary is sinless -- you said your answer is yes to my first question regarding that, right?).
No dude, Mary was a sinner just like you and me. To say there was another sinless human being like Jesus is to exalt that person to the level of Jesus.
But we can argue til we're blue in the face. I guess you'll just have to accept that this site's statement of faith differs greatly with yours, and if you want to exalt Mary as sinless and all that, you should do so on a site that agrees with that.
Again, you brought up the whole matter, and even my previous post that you referred to was also in response to all the die-hard Catholics exalting Mary as sinless, as our intercessor, etc., and flooding our site with such error.
For us to openly respond to all that which is being openly promoted here on our site, isn't hate.
And guess what? For what it's worth, I actually kinda feel love for you right now. Weird huh?
Anyway I certainly don't feel any hate.
But we'll operate our site as we see fit, and try to keep a balance of allowing some open discussion, questions, etc., without allowing certain heretical groups to flood our site too much with their agenda. It's strange that you would say I have an agenda -- seems much more the other way around. But anyway, here's some love for ya:
Jesus is Lord!
