Hi Salty, Oh for sure this is true. Many Catholics leave and become Protestant. Almost 100% of them did not know there Faith very well. We’ve had two generations now that have not been taught the Faith like I was taught it. You would never convert a Catholic who knew their Faith. The only other...

God bless you Walter. My favorite Baptist convert that had an impact on me is Tim Staples. He even stayed at my house one night! The one thing I like about converts to the Catholic Faith is that usually they don’t hate their former Faith. Tim thanks God for his upbringing and his Baptist faith...

Hi Walter, Congrats on your conversion! I had someone recently say to me that we changed our doctrine when we took away the requirement for abstinence from meat on fridays back in the 1960’s after Vatican II. This was a disciplinary rule and not a doctrine. By the way, this was a former...

Hi Marooncat79, It would help if you applied these verses to something specific.

Hi JonC, I always seem to like your posts. I think it’s because you have a really good attitude. Lol Anyway, I agree with you but I wanted to share something with you. A couple of years ago I watched probably a couple hundred videos by both the Baptist and Calvinist James White and the...

Hi Salty, The second paragraph answers this. This is not a doctrinal change but a disciplinary change. This has to do with excommunication like I spoke about yesterday. If someone has an abortion they are still excommunicated but they do not have to go to the bishop to confess. You can go to the...

Absolutely. Those are opinions but you will never find, in official Catholic Teaching, that abortion is acceptable. It is a loss of Faith. In the Catechism of the Catholic Church it says, “Formal cooperation in an abortion constitutes a grave offense. The Church attaches the canonical penalty of...

Hi 5 Point, There are different levels of understanding in the Catholic Church just like in other churches but there is only ONE Faith that is officially taught.

Hi Salty, It seems that everybody is short help! Lol

Hi Salty, I watched the video. I think the guy hit the nail on the head when he brought up Modernism. Science and the pseudo-sciences have trumped Faith. Making Faith relative and always changing, non-denominational churches have become popular. I believe they are strongly influenced by...

Since the beginning? What time frame are you talking about? This is probably your prejudice against celibacy. You probably think men cannot control themselves with God’s grace for a higher cause. It that it? What about Paul? (1 Cor 7:7-8).

Hi Rocky, Yea, this kind of thing is going on everywhere. They would probably quote you 1 Cor 9:22 or something like that. They would say you have to do whatever works.

I generally agree. I think what you are saying points out that these things are conditional.

Sounds good.

I will probably post on other threads a little but I won’t be starting any new threads until the end of September. I will be out of town for awhile and taking care of other things. I have enjoyed talking to all of you and writing these posts. May God bless!

Part 2 Rom 8 Finally, I want to go through Romans 8 as an example of showing the Church as a family. Rom 8:12 brethren Rom 8:14 Sons of God Rom 8:15 Adoption of Sons, Abba Father Rom 8:16 Sons of God Rom 8:17 Sons, Heirs Rom 8:19 Sons of God Rom 8:21 Children of God Rom 8:23 Adoption, Sons...

Hi All, Part 1 Courtroom Model vs Family Model The Marriage of the Lamb (Apoc 19:7) - Catholic Family Model If you look at the Marriage of the Lamb through the lens of the “Family” I think you will begin understanding the Catholic View. We see everything through the lens of the Family. After...

Mathetes66, I found this definition of the Marriage Supper of the Lamb by Spurgeon on Biblehub.com: II. THE MEANING OF THE MARRIAGE SUPPER. 1. The completion and perfection of the Church. "His bride hath made herself ready." 2. The rising of the Church into the nearest and happiest communion...

Part 4 Conclusion Though the marriage of the Lamb to His bride (the church) and the marriage supper of the Lamb are closely related, they are separate events, just as the wedding ceremony and the wedding reception of our day are separate events. In fact, these two events are often held at two...

Part 3 While the marriage ceremony will take place in Heaven just before the Second Coming, the marriage feast will take place on earth after the Second Coming. In fact, it would seem that the marriage feast is what begins the Millennium or the Messianic Kingdom; the Church’ s co-reigning with...
