    The Biblical Basis of 10 Catholic Distinctives

    Only the profound understanding of Scripture reveals Mary as the Ark of the New Covenant. There is a great gulf between the profound understanding of scripture and the profane understanding of scripture. The profane can read scripture all they want, but they will never uncover the depths of...

    The Biblical Basis of 10 Catholic Distinctives

    The Ark of The Old Covenant had a crown, it is fitting that the Ark of the New Covenant have a crown as well. “and shalt make upon it a crown of gold round about.“ Exodus 25 At the Great Atonement for all Israel Lev 16, The Ark was central. The High Priest sprinkled blood of Sacrifice on and...

    The Biblical Basis of 10 Catholic Distinctives

    Did it sort of look like this. The Arks of the Covenants are heavily involved in the Genuine worship of God. Mary is The Ark of The New Covenant. The Ark of the Covenant is not worshipped, it is venerated as the Seat and Throne and Sanctuary of God on Earth, in the Old Covenant and...

    The Biblical Basis of 10 Catholic Distinctives

    I’m not making anything up. Catholicism is very Jewish, what you call pagan is actually the roots of Jewish religious practice. It was a Jewish Rabbi that instantly saw the ancient Israelite Temple worship when he entered a Catholic Church, only with Jesus being worshipped as the Messiah in the...

    It was a Catholic Holy water font in the 1400s. Catholic Holy water is blessed in the Name of The Holy Trinity.

    The Biblical Basis of 10 Catholic Distinctives

    No the Jews used holy water in Jesus day under mosaic law, that’s where Catholics inherited the practice into the New Covenant. Old Covenant worship practices foreshadowing New Covenant worship practices we see in Catholic and Orthodox Churches. Exposition of Jesus in The Holy Eucharist, you...

    Holy water font older than Protestantism or Baptist’s. Church entry. Israelite Laver at entry.

    The Biblical Basis of 10 Catholic Distinctives

    No we don’t. Under the New Covenant we use holy water differently. The Holy water is blessed in The Name of The Father and of The Son and of The Holy Spirit. Is this the pagan god you are referring to? You go too far. Did pagans bless their water in The Name of The Father, Son and Holy Spirit?

    The Biblical Basis of 10 Catholic Distinctives

    “[A]nd the priest shall take holy water in an earthen vessel and take some of the dust that is on the floor of the tabernacle and put it into the water.” Numbers 5:17 Our priests use holy water as well in the New Covenant priesthood. Holy water is Scriptural whether you like it or not. It’s...

    Mexican makings

    I’ve been making tortillas and putting various stuff in them, but not genuine Mexican fare. Tortillas apparently are the base for many different Mexican dishes. A lot of ingredients mentioned online we don’t get here and they are complicated, I’m looking for really simple fillers and things as...

    We have reached point 2 and so far proved these Scriptural.

    The Biblical Basis of 10 Catholic Distinctives

    All members of the body of Christ are subordinate to the Head. Never claimed Paul was the source of healing, God’s Grace was given him and people received God’s healing Grace through Paul. Just like people received God’s healing Grace through Paul’s handkerchief touching it in faith. Your...

    The Biblical Basis of 10 Catholic Distinctives

    No, idolatry viewed the object itself as a God, with its own powers, and make sacrifices to it, as worship. Not a holy object graced by God, to be subordinate source of God’s healing Grace. This is the ignorance and wrong understanding of Scripture I’m talking about. “He did right in the sight...

    The Biblical Basis of 10 Catholic Distinctives

    Paul himself was subordinate, should people have gone to him for healing prayer and not God first hand? “As a result, people brought the sick into the streets and laid them on cots and mats, so that at least Peter’s shadow might fall on some of them as he passed by.” Why did people seek out...

    The Biblical Basis of 10 Catholic Distinctives

    That’s not idolatry. This is pure ignorance. Idolatry is making sacrifice to the object as a god of itself. It’s ignorance like this, and perhaps prejudice that seem endemic with you guys, you can’t see right, nor judge right. Wrong. Why was the bronze serpent destroyed? Because people...

    The Biblical Basis of 10 Catholic Distinctives

    So the incidents involving Paul’s handkerchiefs and aprons was idolatry? The bronze serpent was ordered by God to heal the people who looked on it. It was a subordinate source of healing Grace. Whilst the Israelites used it as such, it was perfectly fine. Only later did it have to be...

    The Biblical Basis of 10 Catholic Distinctives

    The bronze serpent was sort out if people were bitten by snakes and they were healed by looking upon it. So God established an object as a subordinate source of His healing Grace. Wrong. The Ark of the Covenant for one. People couldn’t touch it, it was so Holy. The Sacred vessels in the temple...

    The Biblical Basis of 10 Catholic Distinctives

    Anyway, if people don’t have faith that God has the power to heal and deliver through objects and that objects can be made holy by the Word and prayer, then it would not be of any effect. Believe in God’s power. Power left Jesus through His robe and into the woman healing her instantly. She...
