Thanks for displaying the sins of both of pride and presumption.
Well done!
It’s no sin to proclaim who I am in Christ.
Is there anything else you’d like to throw? I have God’s word in my corner. You have a man made cult in yours. If I don’t reply, I will tomorrow God willing. Hitting the hay here.
It's not enough to rely on what you "proclaim".
It's what Jesus Christ proclaims at your Last Judgement.
Are you prepared for it?
“Why pray to anyone to intercede with Christ when you can pray to Christ directly?”
For one thing, Our Lord likes His mother more than He likes me.
For another, two prayers are better than one.
Why refuse to ask for prayers when it might help?
Sure am. I’m saved by grace through Jesus Christ who died on the cross for me, then he rose, defeating death itself. He is my savior, my intercessor to God. The rc Church is the whore of Babylon, anti Christ Church. Come out of her and find the truth.
Start looking at how many Christians have been murdered by the Vatican over the years. The number is staggering. No church of Jesus Christ would murder his own followers. I pray your eyes are opened and you come away from the great deception. I want you with me when I go to live in his kingdom.
See Post 10
Exactly.
God is no respecter of persons. I doubt Christ likes his mom more than you. I do know we are commanded to pray to God alone not anyone else.
That astonishing that you think Jesus Christ is your intercessor to God!
Do you not believe in the Holy Trinity, that Jesus is God?
Do you not believe that it will be Jesus Christ who will judge the living and the dead?
Or do just consider Him to be your intercessor?
“Tu es Petrus et super hanc petram aedificabo ecclesiam mean “
Too bad you think Jesus is just another guy - that’s what Mohammed said too.
You are also a bigot.
OK, got it.
This is, of course, yet another lie courtesy of the church of Rome. Blasphemous idolators.
Jim Bakker! What does that make Tammy?
The Bible does not say to pray to the Virgin Mary or any other man or woman but only to pray to God
Luke 16:18-31 - Rich man pleads for his sons after he dies
Also, the theology is based on a connection via God-given human logic, made for two millennia:
* The living can pray for each other (many instances in Scripture)
* The saints are still living (many instances in Scripture)
Thus, the saints can pray for us
If catholics think I’m bigoted, I’m doing great. The sadduccees and Pharisees hated Jesus too.
Amen brother. We have God’s word itself that affirms it. I feel bad that people can’t read and comprehend God’s word and insist on perverting it with man made traditions and beliefs that go against God’s word. Yet, they are blind to it. People are vain in their beliefs and refuse to believe the truth. God did say he would harden hearts. I’m so grateful to be among the chosen, and I know our numbers are small, but I won’t be quiet about it, I’ll keep sharing.
In person, I find people listen better, they can see the sincerity. On a forum, it’s a lot harder. I simply get called a bigot. Jesus was called all kinds of names too, and he said people would hate us because of him.
Sainthood is not conferred but rather recognized. The Church does not make saints. It does recognize saints, though.
All that goes into the recognition of a saint.
