No. Sorry. That is incorrect..."

Okay, if this is your belief, let me run this buy you. Is it your understanding that the belief in the Sacraments such as of The Real Presence, Confession, Anoiting of the Sick, to name a few have always been strickly Catholic beliefs, (big C) and still are to this day?
Or how about the belief on Marian Doctrines such as The Sinlessness of Mary; her Perpetual Virginity; Mary, Mother of God; The Immaculate Conception; ect. Is it your understanding (belief) that these too have always been strickly Catholic beliefs, and stiil are to this day?

The teaching of Marian Doctrines such as The Sinlessness of Mary; her Perpetual Virginity; Mary, Mother of God; The Immaculate Conception, did NOT appear in the Catholic Church until AFTER 1850!!!!

These Doctrines only appeared in the last 165 years! They NEVER were in the 1st century!

It's QUITE possible TOO that HISTORY has been changed!!
Just as the Jews did to Christs BIRTH records!!
Stating that a Roman General named Ben Panthera was the Father of Christ.
Also that 6 million Jews were killed in German Concentration camps when there were only 3 million Jews in ALL of Europe.
SO MUCH OF HISTORY IS LIES!!
I pray for DISCERNMENT! And rely on Christ to guide my heart!

EVERYDAY!!
It's a GIFT!!
Yes it is a gift, so either one has it or they do not.. Do you have it?
NO ONE can CLAIM eternal salvation!!
So when Jesus said we HAVE eternal life he lied? When Jesus said we will never die, live forever, and have passed from death to life he lied? When John said we can KNOW we HAVE eternal life. he lied?

Thanks I will trust these men of God and not some church of men

It's a gift from God's Grace possible through Christs sacrifice!!
Yes it is, and he is offering to you right now where you sit or stand, will you receive it? Or keep trusting in some church which calls itself the church of God?

Salvation was such a great price for our PRECIOUS Christ, this ALONE is enough for ANYONE to realise your NEVER saved, as such until Christ tells you so. Presuming otherwise is PRIDE!! The SIN OF SATAN!!

Your right, I am saved, And Christ did tell me

"he who believes in him (has pure faith) is not condemned, (is saved) but he who does not have faith is condemned already, because he has yet to place his faith in the son of God.

That's a complete contradiction in terms. If someone gives you 'a gift' they generally don't take it back unless their idiotic, or doing it for the wrong reasons. I'm very sure Jesus is neither of those. Thank God it's His work and grace in Us which teaches us not to sin.

I think what your claiming is a load of old socks ... ooooops did I say that out loud ... my bad!?

To the posters who keep yelling in their posts please calm down, if you use exclamation marks and bolded letters in your posts the way you are then people think you are yelling or are angry

So your SAVED?
You need not say SORRY for your SINS?
So YOU won't be JUDGED then?
According to you, you're ALREADY saved!!
Your SOUL is so PURE and Christ like, it WON'T require PURIFICATION before entering heaven?

Eternally grateful is eternally grateful for his salvation and he calmly and politely spoke to you he even proved his point with scripture, if you continue to respond in harsh rude and un Christ like manner then please leave this thread. he has shown his fruits that he saved you have not

It is not about saying sorry for your sins. It is about repenting concerning your attitude toward God, and accepting the free gift offered to us through Jesus Christ; we are then clothed in His righteousness.

Thats what God says

Why would I do that to my parent who loves me?

It can only be purified by Christ, He did that 2000 years ago when he hung on the cross.

So you think you can purify your own soul? How do you do that?

I apologise!
When I use Exclamation points and block letters I'm emphasising. Not yelling.
And everything I've said may be readable as nasty, but I truly don't mean it to be.

If I have offended anyone I apologise.
I don't wish Christians to think Catholics are self righteous.

We both feel we are trying to enlighten eachother!
Save each other, in the name of Christ through love for all of Gods Children.
This in itself is a wonderful thing.

I see Roman Catholics come here not so much to talk about the Word of God or their faith in Christ, but to defend the Roman Catholic Church. Perhaps you are unaware that you are on a site where even the founders have not minced their words about believing the RCC to be heretical. We have not gone to a Catholic site to argue the virtues of protestantism, yet Catholics come here to argue what they perceive to be the virtues of their Catholicism; many of those same elements are viewed by others as heresies. So yes, I do.
Hmmmm..... why is it you say this? Is it because we Catholics are making you uncomfortable by revealing your misconceptions/ fallacies of the Catholic Church and her teachings, and leading you to the truth?

Only Jesus saves. He is the rock of our salvation... not Peter. :)
