I've been trying to be nice! Don't get me started on my top 10 list of heresies in the RCC.
Can you find biblical worship in a RC.Church? Most of it does not seem to be in scripture?
Do most Roman Catholics read the bible?

No, it would be in an incorrectly placed faith on this matter.
I demonstrated Catholic interpretations of Scripture are ancient. I quoted the Church Fathers who were quoting the scriptures on it.
Baptismal Regeneration was universal and pre Bible Christian belief.
Infant Baptism was universal and pre Bible Christian belief.
Notice all these ancient and great Early Christians and scholars all were quoting the scriptures for their doctrines.
Which is itself a lack of faith in anything happening.

That is irrational. Everyone has some kind of faith. Even a faith as an opposing faith.
No, it’s logical. If your theological starting point is that nothing will happen, then nothing will.
We are granted measure for measure, and this according to our Faith.
This is why our Faith must be boundless, because The Lord’s power is boundless like His Love and Goodness.
It is men that put limits on God, and Cessaitionists even institutionalise it.
Don’t put limits on God.
Real Faith is never ignored by God, He is enchanted and honoured by it.
Like when a man first introduced himself as the friend of a friend and welcomed himself in. He went straight for my drinks trolley for a scotch and helped himself to my humidor. Polite but pleasant and confident of my hospitality.
This is an approach I appreciate, prevail upon me by action assuming the best of me, not stand at the door supplicating assuming I’m Ebenezer Scrooge.
Don’t we know enough about Jesus to assume the best of Him, don’t we realise yet how offensive it is to Him to be distrustful of Him.
I often wonder what kind of Jesus people have in their heads.
I’ve always hated skittish dogs, a skittish dog I can kick through the palings. A bold confident trustful dog or an aggressive dog I can understand and handle. But the double minded, lukewarm skittish dog gets a kaboot.
If we feel this way about mutts how does God feel about our skittishness.
People are institutionalising distrust of Jesus by their theology.

Not my view. James 1:17, Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning.
Yes and.....
Apostolic signs and wonders were ONLY gifted to the Lord Jesus own Apostles, as they were given the task to conform and proved their message that Jesus was and is the risen Lord and Savior, but even during apostles own time gifts were ceasing, such as when Paul advised Timothy to take some wine, not to receive divine healing from Paul!
And did not even author of Hebrews state that Apostles did confirm thru signs and wonders, but not such any longer, but by the Scriptures themselves now conforming Jesus as the Lord?
The Church of Rome denied Pauline Justification, repudiate the Reformation true Gospel. so how can she have any part in the "power of God?"
I hold a balanced view of the issue.This video refutes 5 of the standard arguments for cessationism:

This thread will then elaborate on the grounds for continationism, a doctrine that is vital for acknowledging and promoting the work of the Holy Spirit in our era.
Does Jesus heal? Yes.
If the faith healers are genuine, then they need to go to the hospitals, especially the children's hospitals, and empty them out.
