Catholics more so.
No, there are not some sinners more deserving than others. Quit relegating people to destruction when God has not given you permission. Most Roman Catholics think they are serving God with their rituals. That does not make them evil, just deceived. God is not done with anybody yet. Let's quit putting the horse in front of the buggy. See my blog "God's Salvation Plan." 6-old-thumbsup.gif

I am a Catholic and I would like to have a one on one debate with any Protestant from any denomination, bring up anything on what you do not agree with on the Catholic church as in doctrine, tradition, the papacy, praying to saints etc. I will answer the best I can with love and charity.

God Bless
I'm not joking .. Do you let those forbidden to marry priests put those crackers in your mouth with their hands ?

Wow! What a crass way to speak of communion. For you it may be a cracker and some juice but for others this is the sacrifice that Jesus made on the cross given for us to be in union with Christ.

No I don't think you are joking, which I why I said what I said. So while I disagree with transubstantiation and many other catholic traditions. I will never speak so irreverently about the Lord's Supper. Be cause Jesus gave it to us, and it is his words and his Spirit and his institution, and as long as the his words are given along with the bread and wine to a repentant soul in reverence to the Lord for his sacrifice, it is Holy.

Catholics more so.
In general more so.

But discussing things with them that they seem to do proudly like ashes on ones head or making a triangular sign with ones hand as some sort of self edifying sign gift can aid in discovering truths that we can beware of. .

The differences can be used to share the light of the gospel. Catholisicim would seem like a dark place .

Jesus used that method with the Pharisees and Sadducees .Two different sects (Greek word heresy ) that walked by sight that came together as one. Pharisees with Sadducees. . In that way the bible informs us there must be heresies or different sects so we can know the direction needed for hearing God more adequately as we do seek after his unseen approving as our living hope.

1 Corinthians 11:19 For there must be also heresies among you, that they which are approved may be made manifest among you.

Catholisicim according to a law of the fathers, a law of men as a false zeal for knowing God that was used by the father of lies the god of this world to usurp the authority of our Father in heaven.


Catholisicim is a duplicate of the Pharisees with Sadducees . Roman Catholics with Eastern Orthodox. They too would put aside their differences and build a faith on dead men. . . called Patron saints . Again passed down from the faithless Jews a carbon copy same authority "what the eyes see." .Making Jesus into a circus seal .Show us then we will believe. .The pagan foundation. Out of sight out of mind.

Signs and wonders seekers. No faith.

Prophecy is for those who do believe God, as not seen ( Faith)

Matthew 16:1The Pharisees also with the Sadducees came, and tempting desired him that he would shew them a sign from heaven.

How can you speak so degradingly of it then?
From the hands of a man is offered bread and wine, but from the Lord his body and blood broken and spilled for the remission of sin.

Its a shadow used in ceremonies as sign to the angels that bring the gospel . .

And if it is given as a unknow remnant of grace, is it Holy?

They teach only Mary received the fullness of grace who then becomes a dispenser of grace and mercy .Like; "Mother Mary have mercy on us now and in ones hour of need".

According to the law of their fathers. Everyone else get a unknown amount of grace and after the pass the unknown remains as timeless clock . They even teach Mary goes to purgatory and has seen Protestants there . She gives all her comfort by saying . . .Not today keep on suffering.

I don't regard it as magic .. I break bread and drink water if that's all I have and take a moment to remember what Jesus has did for me , I run a conscious check over my life and repent .. Sometimes I stuff the whole piece of bread in my mouth, drink the water as if it's wine if I'm alone and eat it in faith to Jesus honor and remember Him and everything He is with thanks ..

Like I said I disagree a lot with Catholic teachings. In fact I am quite anti catholic, but I would never use crass terms in reference to the Lord's Supper, not even to sacramentarians, nor to Catholics. Because it is not man who gives it to us it is the Lord Jesus.

It's not magic, and neither is the resurrection.
Jesus gave us the his words and his elements, he instituted it and it is his. He gives it to us.
So while I know we will disagree and there is no point in arguing it, if you are taking bread and water alone it's not the Supper. Jesus didn't consecrate water and neither did he offer it alone to an individual. It is communion, with the body and with Christ himself.
