    Is Catholicism the Oldest Christian Faith?

    That’s the problem? As the supposed infallible head of the Catholic Church his answer left folks scratching their heads . Francis’s non answer answer only caused confusion . No interpretation just a touchy-feely response to make someone feel good . Blessings Bill

    Is Catholicism the Oldest Christian Faith?

    Ok question you said that the Catholic Church interprets the scriptures, so why haven’t they done so ? With nearly 2000 years you would think the had time to do . The Catholic Church has not dogmatically interpreted even 1% of the holy scriptures. That info comes from the Catholic encyclopedia...

    Well what does that have to do with anything. Pope Francis has been at it for over 50 years. Time has nothing to do with it . If so then Frank the hippy Pope is more qualified than you . Bill

    My take on water baptism...

    Yea I am familiar with Irenaeus. What he taught was not original sin . Augustine does attribute the teaching to him though .A simple reading of the work by Ireaneus “Against Heresies” where Augustine gets his idea shows he taught a form of Pelagianism. Irenaeus taught man had no choice to sin...

    My take on water baptism...

    Actually the earliest written document mentioning holy water is from the late 4th century around 380 called The Constitutions of the Holy Apostles . It’s the closest evidence Catholics have trying to show the apostles used holy water . You need to get a good grip on church history. Pushing the...

    Yes it’s a humbling experience to come to the realization that a Holy God exists When you weren’t even looking or concerned with the things of God . From the perspective of a atheist ( former atheist now ) it is something that scares then immediately fills one with gratitude Knowing He is...

    FLAT EARTH

    Ok here is a excerpt from a monk in 735 AD name Bede “The reason why the same days are of unequal length is the roundness of the Earth, for not without reason is it called ‘‘the orb of the world’’ on the pages of Holy Scripture and of ordinary literature. It is, in fact, a sphere set in the...

    How does it come about that only some believe and others not hearing the same Gospel ? It it in the hearing if so it means the one that’s saved had something in him that made him better. So he earned it or was just made better what is it ? Perhaps it was the one sharing the Gospel that lacked...

    Is it permissible for a Christian to use lethal force to protect himself, others, or his state?

    No insult . It’s not that easy . Generally if folks are in a life and death situation your going to have just a seconds it’s has to be center mass . Shooting for a leg or arm increases the likelihood you will miss . If you miss does the bad guy move in and take your weapon , Does the stray...

    Are you a Trinitarian, and if so, can you defend the doctrine?

    Concerning the underlined That may not be for long . If you listen closely especially among the conservatives in the Catholic Church. There is a growing push to make Mary Co Redemptrix ( a co redeemer ) along side Christ Jesus . Putting her equal to Jesus . They already have it that Christ’s...

    If the saved that is dead is in heaven ,With GOD ,Why dose the BIBLE say that the dead can not PRAISE the LORD .

    You need to first look at context here . It’s poor practice to look at verse or even worse a few words out of scripture and use it to demonstrate a theological point. Looking at what is written in the title Psalm 115 is used or in view. The Psalm is contrasting God ,God’s people with Idols and...
