Mark, I believe this is why the Holy Rosary said by humble pilgrim believers, at abortion mills, has known such success to SHUT THEM DOWN.

These dear people do not harangue, they do not incite or badger, but offer love and resolve to a tragic irreversible action, armed with practical, immediate assistance to help solve a desperate situation.

They practice what the Holy Father recommends here.

I was waiting for the infallible word to come up. This was an interview — it was not a doctrine or a dogma pronounced by the Pope or the Magisterium.

The Pope is not impeccable. He goes to Confession too. John Paul II is said to have gone to Confession once a week.

So do you confess your sins and know they are forgiven?

**Forget the pope and read the Bible.**

LOL! I can just picture you trying to tell that to St. Peter. LOL!

You can trust the Bible.

Which one?

Where's that in the Bible?

Where does the Bible tell you that the Bible is the sole rule of faith?

It doesn't.

And it can't.

It would have been impossible for the biblical writers to refer to "the Bible" ("the books") as a whole, because the books of the Bible weren't canonized until centuries after all of its books had been written.

Why the King James, of course, because "If it was good enough for Jesus, it's good enough for me!"

Not opinion, plain talk, it is the word of God...plain and simple. Read it for yourself.

God bless.

“I was reminding you what God has said of Himself.”

Exactly.

Thanks for that, .45 Long Colt!

The one I use is the Life Application Study Bible and the profiles of biblical persons, the chapter notes, maps, and index are invaluable.

The first one was a gift from my beloved grandmother and is falling apart. For three years it rarely left my hands or my presence. I am now on my second one.

Highly recommended, Thomas. Get one and do a comparison side by side with a Catholic bible.

Peter would be the first one to say...study the Scriptures for yourself.

It just breaks my heart how utterly deceived and blinded by Rome these good people are.

Why would we lie to you? We have absolutely nothing to gain by doing so. You leave Rome, come to a saving grace thru Christ Jesus, and are born again and filled with the Spirit. If we are so horrible, then why in the world would we want you to have that? We should be just the opposite and keep this wonder all to ourselves.

We are not the ones deceiving you...we are not the enemy.

It must be a far more terrifying thing that I have ever imagined for a Catholic to leave Rome. Secret Agent Man was right when he said we speak to the interested, the seeker, and the humble. And we also speak to those perhaps too terrified to even contemplate leaving Rome.

I will say, that if any of you would like to speak in private about anything with me, you have my word that nothing will be brought out publicly...just in case fear is driving some of you.

I can say truly that we do care, we are here for anyone, and we will help anyone who does desire to leave the RCC. And it will be up to you to choose whether anyone else on this forum or in the world ever knows about it.

For those of you listening and hearing and who are genuinely interested, I invite you to PM me.

God bless you all,
jodyel

I base this only on instinct - and my experiences of dealing with other people who have unconfessed and unrepentant sin in their lives before God.

I believe he has a homosexual past, or is currently practicing homosexuality.

It is most likely one or the other.

And this quote from him is absolute heresy to God's Word, the Holy Bible.
