Why do you believe the Roman Catholic traditions that deny and defy the Word of God? Crying/weeping is not repentance, it is only a sign of conviction. For reference, see court TV where there are lots of criers!


I don`t know what T.V has to do with it but the reason I said why do you believe Paul, the liar, is so the one who said Peter the liar could see how it looked on the other side of the coin.

I also do not believe a lot of the catholic doctrine, praying to Mary and several other things.

The problem I have with many Protestant Churches is that they base all most every thing on Pauls writings, and while I believe Paul was a believer I am not sure he was an apostle, too many contradictions.

** praying to Mary **

How many times must we tell you that we do not pray “TO” Mary.

Instead, we ask her to pray for us.

Catholics think of Paul as the Apostle to the Gentiles.

The problem I have with your premise is that it defies logic, and also Scripture.

Paul is the most prolific writer of the New Testament for a reason. He was chosen by God to be an apostle, and he was inspired by the Holy Spirit to communicate to various groups of believers around the known world. His testimony of conversion reveals that he was already a follower of god, and due to the Damascus road experience, where God apprehended him, he became a valuable ally to the young church.

TV shows people crying when convicted, not repenting. Read the post and try to comprehend what I said.

Titus 1: 1 Paul, a servant of God and an apostle of Jesus Christ to further the faith of God’s elect and their knowledge of the truth that leads to godliness— 2 in the hope of eternal life, which God, who does not lie, promised before the beginning of time, 3 and which now at his appointed season he has brought to light through the preaching entrusted to me by the command of God our Savior, ...

Paul claimed he was an apostle and Peter claimed what Paul wrote was God breathed scripture...If Paul wasn't an apostle, Peter then doesn't have any credibility either...

Too many contradictions with Paul??? I'm glad to see someone claim there are contradictions...When I started out I saw contradictions as well...But I knew the scriptures couldn't contradict themselves so the error had to be on my end somehow...And it was...
