When Paul received Jesus Christ as Lord he turned from the religion of Judaism because it's doctrines were not in line with Jesus Christ... "Yea doubtless, and I count all things but loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord: for whom I have suffered the loss of all...

Isn't identifying as a Catholic supporting their false doctrines? I don't think you can have it both ways in the eyes of God.

If we know the truth, and a religous group's doctrines are deceiving people into hell, are we not accomplices by not saying anything to possibly stop it and save some of those who may believe that they do not need Jesus Christ to be saved?

Are you saying Catholics do not allow non Catholics to come in and worship with them?

Do you subscribe to their doctrine that one can be saved by loving thy neighbour even if they reject Jesus Christ? That alone would cause me to want to tell them of their error rather than let them continue on as if they are right.

But are you not actually being deceitful to your Catholic parish? God sees everything.

Yes, that is a good one that speaks of "calling upon the name of the Lord". Also here is another one that instructs people to ask... "If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children: how much more shall your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to them that ask him?"...

You are spot on John. Don't let Menno throw you off on his Calvinist theology. Hey Menno, if you don't know where this concept is found in the bible, keep digging and pray Jesus to show you the Light!

I believe the reason James confuses many people is because they do not distinguish between justification of the soul and justification of the profession. All James is doing is explaining how true faith in Jesus Christ is evidenced by having good works. In context, if you take in the entire...

I do not see a contradiction. You have to understand James. Faith alone justifies the soul/person. But it must be a faith evidenced by works and not just a "said" faith. "What doth it profit, my brethren, though a man say he hath faith, and have not works? can faith save him?" "Yea, a man...

Correct. Justification is through faith alone. The works justify the "said" faith.

I do not have to be Jesus' prophet. God gave us the writings of Jesus' prophets so that we may understand the condition of those who reject Jesus Christ and those who gladly receive Him. "They went out from us, but they were not of us; for if they had been of us, they would no doubt have...

Herbert, are you one of these people also? You first told me the Church does not teach a person can reject Jesus Christ and be saved. But you continue to argue with me just the opposite.

I've never said your profession was null. My contention is that Catholicism does not love the world enough to warn the unbeliever of their condemnation and their need to escape God's wrath through receiving Jesus Christ as Lord God and Saviour.

Tell you what Herbert. You keep saying I am wrong to believe what I am reading. How about you explain to us what YOU believe Jesus was saying since it seems to not be as clear to you as it is to me. "He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already...

Herbert, what don't you understand? When you present the Gospel of Jesus Christ to a person and they say NO, I DO NOT ACCEPT THIS GOSPEL OF JESUS CHRIST, I can say by the Authority of Jesus Christ's own words that they remain under the wrath of God, condemned. You just described every NON...

I believe Paul was a Christian and I got this directly from Paul. And then you say this..... After you just gave a whole bunch of explanation of that which is not there. Yes and we have never debated those "who no fault of their own" here. We have always debated those who clearly heard the...

Even after Polls are wrong over and over again, we still have people giving them play. Look at the latest in the UK, the conservative party was said to be Polling 20 points ahead of the others. Once again, Polls are way off! Why is anyone giving them a second thought anymore? And yes. if there...

Your emphasis is selective. Why? "If any one saith, that by faith alone the impious is justified; in such wise as to mean, that nothing else is required to co-operate in order to the obtaining the grace of Justification, and that it is not in any way necessary, that he be prepared and disposed...

This is not the verse I look to for OSAS. This verse declares that one cannot reject Jesus Christ and still be saved through loving thy neighbour. You sin every day. You will have to determine which sin divorces you from Christ and then we can move forward.
