Hopefully Tyler comes to realize that the Roman Catholic church isn’t “home” but a religion that has perverted the true gospel of the grace of God while asserting herself as THE church Jesus established. I wonder how Tyler will respond when the priest tells him he cannot be assured of his salvation - which was promised by Jesus - and if he does so he’s committing the “sin of presumption”?

Take it from a former Roman Catholic, Tyler, you were closer to the truth as an Evangelical. Salvation is the gift of God and not by your works lest any should boast.

Thorns grow up and choke the growing seed which is what leads to so many “former Catholics”.

Such folks are especially funny when they talk about Scripture after first throwing out a large section of the Old Testament and following up with basing what they accept as Scripture on the Masoretic Text rather than the older versions that do not have the major alterations Jewish rabbis made to the Masoretic.

Not a lick of fear and trembling in a whole crowd of em’

I don’t understand your anger. Did the Lord say to St. Peter that he holds the keys to the kingdom? On Holy Thursday, did the Lord not give his people the gift of the Eucharist and everlasting life?
It seems to me that the protestants left the Catholic church when Luther posted his thesis on a tree/door.
Now people make up any church they want. Anything goes or not.
The Orthodox Church. Look into them. They also believe in the Eucharist. (this I believe is why you are angry, your soul is thursting for the Bread of Life)

you mean an evangelical like the Oneness Pentecostals who deny the Trinity?

Or an Evangelical like Joel Osteen, Creflo Dollar, etc?

Or an Evangelical who denies the words of Christ who promised the destruction of Jerusalem happening in the lifetime of the generation who were listening to Him?
