And what did he tell them?? He said about them receiving communion unworthily: 1 Cor. 11:27-29 Therefore whoever eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord unworthily will have to answer for the BODY AND BLOOD OF THE LORD. A person should examine himself, and so eat the bread and drink the...

Absolutely - but that is NOT what we do when asking a saint in Heaven to pray for us. A I have posted several times already - "Pray" does NOT mean "worship". In fact "Worship" is only a secondary definition. "Pray" simply means to ASK. Definition of the word “PRAY”: Merriam-Webster’s...

I didn't say that water Baptism was circumcision. I said that it is the FULFILLMENT of what circumcision was. Paul tells us this much: Col. 2:11-12 In him also you were circumcised with a circumcision made without hands, by putting off the body of flesh in the circumcision of Christ; and you...

Soooooo, let me get this straight. Are you saying that YOU are righteous - or that you are "covered" in the righteousness of Christ. I eagerly await your response. I'm always fascinated at witnessing the birth of a new splinter group within a Protestant denomination . . .

This is a LIE. An anathema is NOT damnation. It is ipso facto excommunication. Excommunication is a BIBLICAL discipline designed to expel the unruly from the congregation and "deliver them to Satan", as Paul puts it, in the hope that they return to the fold (1 Cor. 5:5, 1 Tim. 1:20). And the...

I would say that asking those in Heaven to pray for us IS Biblical. In EVERY debate I've had with Sola Scriptura-adhering Protestants about Mary's sinlessness - they have thrown the following verses at me: Rom. 3:10 There is none righteous, no, not one. Rom. 3:23 "... for ALL have sinned, and...

More Scriptural and linguistic ignorance. Time for another Bible and language lesson . . . In 1 Cor. 11:27-30, Paul speaks to the reality of the Eucharist and the severity of the consequences to those who take this lightly: “Therefore whoever eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord...

Incorrect. Baptism doesn't just regenerate SOME people - but ALL who are Baptized as Jesus prescribed (John 3:5, Matt. 28:19). In Acts 2:38, Peter said that Baptism was for the forgiveness of sins and for the gift of the Holy Spirit. In the very next verse, he assured the crowd that this...

A claim you've made about a DOZEN times now - with ZERO evidence. Nice job, sparky . . .

Yet another moronic, thinly-veiled attack on the Catholic Church. Unfortunately - it's also woefully-ignorant. I'll just address the anti-Catholic attacks - as some of them are anti-SDA/Sabbatarian/Mormon, etc. attacks. The Eucharist is not a "bread-god". It is the body, blood, soul and...

That is the exact OPPOSITE of what is being discussed here. Nehushtan worship was a pagan practice that originated from an image that was constructed by the command of GOD Himself - not the other way around.

And MY point is that some of the things that pagans just happened to do before the age of Christianity, doesn't mean that Christians GOT these practices from pagans and "Christianized" them as YOU falsely assert. Pagans drank water before the age of Christianity. Does that mean that drinking...

Not only is this drivel based on the false, man-made precept of Sola Scriptura, a 16th century invention - your "history" and nomenclature are WAY off. Let's start with the latter and work our way to the former . . . Your claims about "sprinkling" are nonsense. First of all - every time I...

Ummmmm, I wasn't arguing about the fact that Roman crucifixion went on before Christ. Of course it did. I was arguing the point that as a Christian symbol - it was NOT adopted from paganism. It is merely the symbol of the instrument on which Christ made His ultimate sacrifice for humanity...

WRONG. The passage states clearly: "THAT ONE will suffer loss." You cannot suffer anything in Heaven. It is impossible because everything in Heaven is perfect and nothing imperfect can exist (Rev. 21:27). So, by denying this final purification spoken of in 1 Cor. 3:10-13 - it is YOU who is...

The text states very plainly: "But if someone’s work is burned up, THAT ONE will suffer loss . . ." There is NO suffering nor is there any LOSS in Heaven. That is where everything is GAINED. This is NOT describing Heaven. This is NOT describing Hell because the person is eventually saved...

I'm sure the "Good Friday/Crucifixion Wednesday" people will be coming out of the woodwork as we get closer to Holy Week . . .

However, we know that the "stauros" spoken of in Scripture was a cross because of the 1st and 2nd century evidence of crucifixions. For example - the Alexamenos Graffito on Palatine Hill in Rome is the oldest etched depiction of a Roman crucifixion - and it shows a crossbeam. The text...

WOW. That's what you got out of the verses I posted?? They don't say that NOBODY should marry. They simply say that for those who CAN stay celibate for God - they SHOULD. because it is a more excellent way to serve Him.

And as I educated YOU - Jesus was crucified on a CROSS. That's where the christian symbol of the cross comes from - NOT some pagan culture from another time. As for the whole Dagon/Fish worship nonsense - I already explained that to you. And you don't get your history from "authentic" sources...
