Catholic “convert”. Doesn’t mention a thing about Christ...
Eternal life is found only in Him, regardless of denomination. Let’s hope he came to Christ.
I agree and most if not all Catholics would probably also agree that "Eternal Life is found only in Him"
Let's hope we all come to Christ.
I want you, dear brother / sister in Christ to draw nearer to Him with me and indeed we all need hope in that we may come to our Dear Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and move nearer to Him each minute of our earthly lives so Please help me out because I am baffled.
In your very first post on this thread, you seem to insinuate that Gary in converting to Catholicism did not come to Christ and requires hope that he did indeed come to Christ despite converting to Catholicism. It also seems to me from your brief post that you exclude Catholics from your "regardless of denomination" qualifier. If you thought that Catholics could believe that "Eternal Life is found only in Him" why would you post anything at all?
Perhaps I read your post as more contentious then you intended it to be but now you seem to confirm my suspicions as you continue your attack and claim that you know my heart better than I do. How is it that you can conclude that "He is not important"(Ouch) or at least as important or even more so in "my worldview" than in anyone else's? Are your powers of clairvoyance sufficient to read my mind, over the internet even? Perhaps we should all be worshiping you and your more perfect union;)
I may be wrong and your snide comment was not actually meant to separate you and others from your dear Catholic brothers and sisters in Christ and if so (which is often) I apologize, especially for remotely equivocating your little two line post to the horrific brutality that is happening in the middle east and will go back to hacking at the enormous beam in my eye endeavoring to make it ever smaller. Please Pray for me.
Indeed my hope is that you and everyone else are much closer to Christ than I am and that we may even, triumphantly march together through those pearly gates after the beasts come to lop off our heads and we run out of ammo:)
May God Bless and protect each of us especially you, Gary and both your families on our journey towards Christ.
Great post. Really like our FR homepage, too.

The article doesn’t even mention Christ - the only source of eternal life. Instead, it focuses exclusively (excluding Christ) on his conversion to Catholicism. They are different.
If the article was about someone converting to any denomination and didn’t mention Christ, I would post the same thing.
“Perhaps I read your post as more contentious then you intended it to be but now you seem to confirm my suspicions as you continue your attack and claim that you know my heart better than I do.”
It was not an attack on you. I quoted your words and observed how peculiar they were.
“Indeed my hope is that you and everyone else are much closer to Christ than I am and that we may even, triumphantly march together through those pearly gates after the beasts come to lop off our heads and we run out of ammo:)”
My hope is that we all know Christ, regardless of denomination. He is all that counts for eternal life.

Thank you and back at you too.
