When Roman Catholics tell us that "Christian" means to pray to saints and to view the priest as "another Christ" and to label Mary as a "co-redeemer," we, as Christians, feel obligated by the Gospel to say "No, that is not how we have so learned Christ."

"Christian" means follower of Christ. "Christian" does not mean "pray to saints." "Christian" does NOT mean to view the priest as 'another Christ.' "Christian" does NOT mean to "label Mary as a co-redeemer."

Christian means "follower of Christ" of any one of a number of sects. I hardly think that Baptist Christians believe any of the above. Your statement is false. The beliefs you reference are specific to Catholics, when they are not twisted and distorted by disgusting prottie twists. And Catholics are Christian.

No, Christian means follower of the Christ revealed to us in the bible, not one revealed in "another gospel".

No.

"Christian" means follower of Christ alone.

And I offered no "disgusting prottie twists."

I offered Roman Catholic caucus threads.

But if you tell me Roman Catholic caucus threads "distort" and "twist" the truth in "disgusting" ways, I'll take your word for it.

You're trustworthy, aren't you, Judith Anne?

No it doesn't...Many people followed Jesus to get free food...Some to get healed...

All Christians follow Jesus...But all followers are not Christians...

Why is it you guys can't ever get yourself to say Jesus Christ??? I'm thinkin' you guys need a little closer relationship with your Saviour...
