    CRA Christians in Recovery (anonymous)

    This may be my last post as I have suddenly by a gradual realization come to find this chat as possibly suspect and possibly collusive in some ways. After a very helpful conversation with my Catholic neighbor about an extremely unusual encounter via this chat which occurred early this morning my...

    Is accepting Christ enough to be saved?

    Dead religion is a blight no matter what denomination. Catholicism has the wrong structures and wrong doctrines. Protestantism has many flawed structures, although less so than Catholicism. Protestant doctrines are more accurate, but doctrine never saved anyone. I have better acceptance and...

    And the SMOKE of their torment...No eternal damnation for anyone, except the Devil

    Not sure why it boggles anything. However, I do understand your doubts about this. I have some questions myself, such as the passage in which God says that He came to call all men back to Himself, or something like that. Clearly all men will not be called back to Himself. Soooo... what does...

    And the SMOKE of their torment...No eternal damnation for anyone, except the Devil

    That is correct, since the vast majority of Christendom has long been seated or established in Roman Catholicism. Hopefully it is no longer a knee-jerk reaction to assume "Catholic" when one says "Christian," as that used to be the case. I suppose it is possible you do not believe RCC dogmas and...

    Research: Majority of Americans Believe Works Are the Key to Salvation

    It's not an exact quote, but if you'd like, I'll find it for you - it's essentially the same. BTW, quotes that were nothing to find 5+ years ago seem to be disappearing as prophesied polarization of Christians toward either true Protestantism and Catholicism continues. And, who does...

    Research: Majority of Americans Believe Works Are the Key to Salvation

    What Catholics believe and what Protestants believe, is of no concern to me. Actually, you also preach that the law must be strictly obeyed. Transgression of the law is also sin, within your interpretation. Works are not the evidence of salvation, anyone can occupy themselves with works...

    Research: Majority of Americans Believe Works Are the Key to Salvation

    I don't think you fully understand things, friend. 1) I don't preach salvation by works, I preach good works are the EVIDENCE of having received salvation and the absence of good works are the evidence it has not yet been received., 2) Catholicism doesn't teach salvation is limited by...

    The main reason there can never be true unity between Catholics and Christians

    Yep, if you read my posts I agree Catholicism has error. What I don't agree with is starting threads tearing down every denomination. I have friends that are born again that have remained in the church to try and show others the truth. Let's no send everyone to hell because they attend such and...

    The main reason there can never be true unity between Catholics and Christians

    It is the official position of the owner of this site that Catholicism is full of heresy. In fact, Protestantism exists because Catholicism is full of error.

    Institutionalizion of the Church

    I hate Catholicism because it's a false form of Christianity that has done untold evil in the world. If it would stop calling itself Christian that would be one thing; but it pretends to be Christian when its anything but. It's not Catholicism per se I hate but all forms of demonic doctrines...

    Institutionalizion of the Church

    If you are not a Protestant, why are you so opposed to the Catholic Church? Protestantism is a form of Christianity that originated with the 16th-century Reformation,[a] a movement against what its followers perceived to be errors in the Catholic Church.[1] (wikipedia)

    Institutionalizion of the Church

    The United States was populated by various religious groups, escaping fierce persecution in England and in Europe. The Quakers would be a good example of religious folk, fleeing Protestant England and that started in the Seventeenth century. Protestant England claimed freedom in belief and...

    Institutionalizion of the Church

    Anti-Catholics selectively ignore that Protestant Churches also did sinful things in the past. They took this single verse out of context: “Thou shalt not suffer a witch to live.” (Exo 22:18) Such OT verses don't apply in this dispensation, but many in those days misunderstood this. Today...

    Is veneration of saints Biblical?

    Just because Protestant groups in the West can seem to get together that's no reason to turn to false Christian idolatry. There are a lot of people who don't want anything to do with either one but neither Catholicism nor Protestantism wants to make it very easy for them. They seem to think you...

    Can there be apostles today, and have their been throughout church history?

    The word "apostle" has been replaced by "missionary". I don't why, perhaps to avoid confusion over the founding 12. Apostles should be founding churches in places where there are no Christians. Such churches should become self sufficient. It is fine for the apostle to encourage, teach, exhort...

    Can there be apostles today, and have their been throughout church history?

    If the author is referring to past apostles and prophets, referring to the past does not mean that he is making commentary about the present or the future. The ministry of apostles and prophets was an ongoing thing when he wrote this. There were also historical prophets and some commentators...

    How do you cope with distractions?

    That priest's behavior is reprehensible. Added: Protestantism in Poland is the third largest faith in Poland, after the Roman Catholic Church (32,440,722) and the Polish Orthodox Church (503,996). As of 2018 there were 103 registered Protestant denominations in Poland. Most Protestants (mainly...

    Interpreting the Parable of the Rich Man and Lazarus: It's Really Good News!

    Antinomianism comes from the Greek meaning lawless. In Christian theology it is a pejorative term for the teaching that Christians are under no obligation to obey the laws of ethics or morality. Few, if any, would explicitly call themselves "antinomian," hence, it is usually a charge leveled by...

    Interpreting the Parable of the Rich Man and Lazarus: It's Really Good News!

    Cognitive activity is now "spiritual activity"? Cognitive activity, though mental, is still reliant on our physical existence - dead people don't think, know, plan, feel emotions, OR DREAM. Paul's use of "spirit/soul/body" is the same as if a mom says to the kids, "I want the our kitchen, our...
