You know what I mean by the term: it's commonly enough used. Your attempts at sophistry are unimpressive

Oh, so that's alright then. It wont matter if a few dozen more.die each year in high school.That surely is the dumbest thing on this thread

Seems like the kids get it even if the so-called 'grown ups' don't: In Florida aftermath, US students say 'Never Again' - American teens demand 'Never Again'

Your children pay a very high price for your 'rights' it seems...

Yes it does work here. Not sure why it doesn't work with you. Assault weapons? Seriously? A friend of mine has come to the - to my mind accurate - conclusion that there are striking similarities between the NRA apologists and the proponents from sub-Saharan Africa of FGM: yes, the rest of us...

No, I'm saying that, like here, no civilian should be allowed to purchase a semi-automatic weapon.

So, someone please explain to me why it's illegal for a 19 year old to purchase alcohol but perfectly legal for him to buy an AR-15 with which to slaughter 17 of his former pupils and teachers?

Define "Church"

But please confirm you agree that Ulrich Zwingli did in Zürich

But the demons had faith in Christ - in Who and What He was/ is. It availed them nought.

One is justified by and in Christ

As he says, even the demons believed that Jesus was God when He exercised them; indeed, their faith was arguably greater than that of many Christians! None of that saved them though.

No, I think you've missed the point: if you claim to 'have faith' and yet don't love God or your neighbour, of what value is that 'faith. I think St James has quite a bit to say about that...

Bad news for the Apostles, then!

Just as well I'm not then but, rather, the sure promise that Jesus meant what He said when He said "This is My Body, this is My Blood"; "unless you eat My Flesh and drink My Blood, you have no part in Me". Unless you think Jesus practised witchcraft?

Yes, but I think St Paul would run a mile from you if he realised you were using his words to condemn the Mass, LOL!

OK, this is going all over the place - now you are saying 'grace alone', not 'faith alone'. You have at least confirmed that it's not 'faith alone', so let's move on to 'grace'. Define 'grace' - what is it, how does it work, how do we receive it?

So, not 'faith alone' then for you. Thanks for clarifying

So it doesn't matter if I occasionally attend Mass then

...which doesn't answer my question: am I saved by faith alone or not? If I have faith and yet can apparently be damned by what you call witchcraft, then my faith does not save me - I am not saved by faith alone. Please make up your mind and clarify whether you believe in salvation by faith...
