    Just Wondering? Do you think Catholic Priests Are Saved?

    Not intending to offend you. I’m just trying to get all of us to be careful with our words. Though the Bible clearly establishes the gospel as the means of salvation, Not everyone follows the same “path” to salvation . Let me explain. I once knew a man that believed if you didn’t weep when...

    Just Wondering? Do you think Catholic Priests Are Saved?

    And yet you mentioned it in support of your position. And Protestants see God restoring the truth of His Word that was rejected by the Catholic Church in favor of human tradition and out right treachery at times. Correct, the rejection of the Apostles traditional interpretation of scripture in...

    Just Wondering? Do you think Catholic Priests Are Saved?

    When you say someone must “follow” the “true plan” of salvation, you sound like a works based salvation because salvation depends on what someone does. Salvation is a work of God from start to finish, initiated by God, empowered by God, finished by God. The plan is explained in 1 Corinthians...

    Just Wondering? Do you think Catholic Priests Are Saved?

    God can hit straight with a crooked stick. The Catholics have the gospel, plus a lot of tradition and, imo, false teaching especially concerning Mary. It is wrong to place an absolute statement in this case. But if it were true that they cannot be saved, then Luther and Calvin plus many other...

    Judge rules divorced mom cannot take daughter to church!

    Well, I guess it’s possible, but unlikely imo. The court (4 justices) have to agree to hear the case. Then it would get on a docket sometime in the future, but probably not this year. At least, that’s my understanding. It’s a slow process, several years Peace to you

    Just Wondering? Do you think Catholic Priests Are Saved?

    Ok, I didn’t see anyone say they weren’t saved, but I could have missed it. Or… they are saved but misinformed. I can’t see God Holy Spirit indwelling but trust God to correct their misunderstanding if they are saved. Perhaps God will put someone in their life to teach them. Well I disagree...

    Just Wondering? Do you think Catholic Priests Are Saved?

    Well, the BB policy doesn’t say you can question another’s salvation as long as you are nice about it. I’ve decided, after many years, that I cannot know if someone is saved or not because I cannot see God Holy Spirit indwelling. They could be saved, but misinformed, out of fellowship with...

    Just Wondering? Do you think Catholic Priests Are Saved?

    Why do you feel the need to question anyone’s salvation? Discuss doctrine, scripture ministry. No need to question someone’s salvation. It is clear Catholics don’t agree with Baptists. If I were Catholic, I would tell you “of course I’m saved.” You would ask, “how were you saved?” I would...

    Just Wondering? Do you think Catholic Priests Are Saved?

    Some yes, some no, just like leadership and membership in any other church. Catholics have the gospel (they have added a lot to it, but they do have the gospel, so salvation is possible. Many of the early reformers, Luther, Calvin etc, were Catholic priests that wanted to @reform@ the Catholic...

    Judge rules divorced mom cannot take daughter to church!

    Good information, 777. It seems the psychological harm is not concerning religious beliefs, but the Pastor mentioning the girls father, in a prayer, and claiming he was an enemy of the church and was persecuting the girl. It will be interesting to see if the court will hear the case. However...

    lets see how this goes

    Please provide biblical support for the assertion the Lord requires our songs to be “solemn”. You are expressing your desires , your preferences, and then asserting God wants it the way you like it. I appreciate your point of view and think I understand. I think you are wrong in your...

    lets see how this goes

    I thought about the troll issue, but I was in a church about 25 years ago with a man who had the very same views, same attitude, same mindset. It could be a generational thing, with those dedicated to church life in the 50’s and 60’s and saw lots of changes during that time, which they...

    lets see how this goes

    Since you believe it’s biblically supported, you should provide the scripture to support your assertions. Otherwise, it sounds like you are making things up. While you are looking up these passages, please show us the passage that allows you to “confront” a woman from another church whose...

    lets see how this goes

    One of the most beautiful songs I ever heard was from an elderly man who couldn’t carry a tune and his voice sounded like he gargled nails every morning. He sang of his love for God and appreciation of what his Savor had done for him. Moved me to tears. Please provide biblical support for...

    lets see how this goes

    Really? That’s the definition of a “phrase”? So you don’t like modern music. Ok. Who are you to judge what type of music moves another person closer to God? Can’t you be happy another person is moving closer to God? Paul stated he attempts to be all things to all men so that by all means...

    Did getting involved in WW II help the US to dig out of the Great Depression?

    FDR’s “New Deal” deepened and prolonged the great depression. He put the “Great” in the Great Depression. From what I have read, and it has been a while, there was intel on Japanese movements in the Pacific and military experts had warned the fleet in Hawaii should put out to sea. Why they...

    lets see how this goes

    The Apostle Paul preached so long once, someone fell asleep and fell out a window. Can you recount an experience where you actually encouraged someone in church? By encourage, I don’t mean attempting to correct something you think they did wrong, but compliment or edify something they did or...

    Who Caused the Cold War?

    No, you don’t have a clue. You haven’t given evidence of “corruption” or “bribes”. You just make vague accusations and demand people go to jail. You literally advocated limiting who could run for office based on economic status. You literally advocated putting people in jail for receiving...

    lets see how this goes

    Well, I’ll offer this advice to you. Focus on yourself and your family. Practice spiritual disciplines. Bible intake, prayer, meditation (on scripture), fasting, singing songs and hymns and spiritual songs Then focus on others. Develop your own ministry. Help someone, or many. What are...
