I am trying to clarify the original question, whether or not catholics worship the pope. In order to figure that out, we must look at the catholic catechism. The answer is in SECTION TWO „THE CREEDS“, CHAPTER ONE „I BELIEVE IN GOD THE FATHER“, Article 1, Paragraph 2. „THE FATHER“, article 266...

Nando, glad to have you with us! And glad to read that you study the bible. You learn German? Well, greetings from Germany :)! I am sure that you will find a lot of people to talk to. And sorry for being a little biased, but I guess the catholic way is not the worst . It has convinced me so much...

Emsie, glad to have you with us! I hope and pray that the gap between the christian confessions will not lead to further discord and friction among us christian people. I will include this wish in the intercessions in tomorrow's holy mass. May the blessing of almighty God, the Father, and the...

Dear SangWooSuh, it is so particularly pleasing, encouraging and gratifying to read your post and to realize that there is somebody who thinks and lives christianity. I am so enthusiastic about what you wrote about David, please allow me to add some thoughts of mine and some links to other bible...

Dear guy from Mars, Have a look at Mattew 6:33. „But seek first the kingdom (of God) and his righteousness, and all these things will be given you besides.“ And Jesus says that whoever gives God and his cause first place will experience in a quite miraculous way that he does not come up short...

Dear Gideon, I understand that God challenges you a lot. I live far away from you, and I cannot be physically with you and help you, I am sorry. I can imagine that you do not know how to make ends meet with your job, your family and suddenly a friend in need of long-term care. Any possibility to...

My dear Gideon, There is so much to say about dementia. What is the answer of the church to that? Why did it hit your friend? Too much to be written in a post. Let me tell you that what you are doing right now is true christian charity. You help your dear friend, you are with her, you give her...

Dear Julie, just to make sure that I understood properly: your daughters are happy to wear their jackets, but they do not want to zip them up, even when it is cold and rainy outside. Is this correct? If yes, you probably asked them WHY. What is their answer? Is it a...

Hael, a warm welcome to you, glad to have you with us! Wanna tell us a little bit about you?

Lala, glad to see that you want to spread love. Do you know 1 Corinthians 16:14, "let all that you do be done in love"? If you follow this commandment, you always do the right thing. I am so convinced of it that I put this verse in my profile as my favorite Bible verse. Let your love grow! May...

Callie, glad to have you with us! May the blessing of almighty God, the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Spirit, come down on you and remain with you for ever.

Dear bbarger, I believe that love can achieve anything. So, close your eyes, make yourself aware that there is a human being who needs love and attention. Make yourself aware that it will make you happy to help him. Be HONEST About it. Then, with this spirit, hold his hands, look into his eyes...

Danny, glad to see that you want to become a better Christian. I try to follow the commandment "love your neighbour as yourself". Based on the reaction of the people around me I dare to say that it seems to work out somehow ;-) This is a wonderful forum with nice people. If you want to become a...

Helene, glad to have you with us! May the blessing of almighty God, the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Spirit, come down on you and remain with you for ever.

Dear lewisx, not all the christian confessions have exactly the same understanding of the eternal life. I can give you a little background about the roman catholic point of view, based on bible passages. After death, the human body is not lost forever, but is to find the last destination in God...

Dear bondservant, I was very touched by your post, in particular by what you wrote about missing your best friend, about the small things that remind you of her and about your grief. I am not personally in your situation and the situation when my parents both went home some years ago is probably...

Paige, glad to see you coming back to God. Working on putting God 1st and giving him complete control is easier said than done? Well, then love your neighbour as yourself. That‘s maybe easier and still God will be your number 1 :-) May the blessing of almighty God, the Father, and the Son, and...

Hello Heikki, nice to have you with us! Yes, I know, bureaucracy and boring sermons can be painful. Have a look at parishes around you … maybe you will find what you need? You will find soulmates here to talk to, I‘m sure :-). May the blessing of almighty God, the Father, and the Son, and the...

Dear Devin, when I was a boy, we had a lot of activities going on in our parish. There were masses especially for the teens and the young adults. There were what we called „liturgic nights“, a mixture of church service, meditation, prayers and even games. We also had early morning masses before...
