So, why did you say you were Catholic when you aren’t?

[Cronos]

it’s not very honest to claim to be something one isn’t....

[Iscool]

But what more can we expect from a cult that practices taqqiyah and pretends to be Christian to cause fights between Christians

Isn't taqqiyah an Izlamic word??? Are you getting confused and running your religions together??? Do you kiss a Koran as well as your popes???

You can't be a Catholic Muzlim and be a Christian as well...Well maybe you can...Everybody's a Christian now days...

[Cronos]

Taqqiyah — pretending to be a Christian Catholic (say) just to mock another Christian (Baptist) fomenting fights. not good....

[Cronos]

Of course it is, so why exactly does your cult practise Taqqiyah?

[Cronos]

iscool: Everybody's a Christian now days...

Ah, so THAT is what irritates your non-Christian cult, eh? That Christianity is spreading.

tsk, tsk.. your little cult's teachings contradict each other so badly no wonder it gets barely one or two adherents.

It only takes a little bit of scripture to knock you guys off your horse...

You sir are very wrong.

We were not talking about “Epistles”, we were talking about the “Gospels”. Read the whole post before you speak.

iscool, your cult says The Apostles didn't hand out or down any faith.

Col 2:12 Buried with him in baptism, wherein also ye are risen with him through the faith of the operation of God, who hath raised him from the dead.

Faith comes from God, NOT the Apostles...

The Apostles handed down, thru the scriptures, Doctrine...The different denominations, yours included, were created based on their own private interpretations of this doctrine...

[Iscool]

Face facts iscool, the list of stuff that your cult does not know is incredible — zero knowledge on the Bible, History, Linguistics etc. Still your posts argue nonsense all the time

Yada, Yada, Yada...Well, I guess when you don't have scripture, you have insults...Nothing new under the sun...

[Iscool]

we have some loony toons who think that “There will be no sign of the Son of Man in heaven...We just get a call, and go up” -—> have you set your speed dial and caller-id correctly?

I wouldn't worry about it if I was you...I'm thinkin' God doesn't have your number...

[JAKraig]

I wouldn't worry about it if I was you...I'm thinkin’ God doesn't have your number...

On the contrary. . . . .I think God has his number :)

[Iscool]

lol...

These are good points, and I am in league with Lorraine Boettner when he says that a certain amount of diversity in the finer points of theology keeps all of us honest. [My paraphrase].

It is a singular mindset to the Romans that there has to be unity in everything ecclesiastical. It’s not necessary to salvation. In the matter of heaven versus hell, all Protestants believe that Christ is the only means of salvation, and the only mediator between God and man. Church government, God’s means of speaking to us, what angels are, etc. are all distinctives without a real difference in the underlying truth of the reality of sin and the need for salvation in Christ. That is my only point. Therefore, that makes the Protestants the real catholics.

[esquirette]

And we can still be friends......

[esquirette]

Yup. Got it. Blessings.

[Cronos]

of course, and I respect you and yes, your church (primarily because of you and in opposition to the bad image I had received of them from others) primarily because they hold to the Nicene Creed.

you may say "catholic Church" instead of capitalizing the C, that's your prerogative, I don't mind. Even if you want to call yourselves catholics, why not, it's your choice. I don't dispute you calling yourselves Presbyterians to differentiate from others, so why grudge us this?

[Cronos]

all Protestants believe that Christ is the only means of salvation, and the only mediator between God and man

That is not completely correct -- Seventh Day Adventists for one, do not agree with that I'd say

[Cronos]

.I'm thinkin' God doesn't have your number

Maybe your non-Christian deity doesn't, but we Christians believe in God, Father, Son and Holy Spirit

i don't particularly care that your non-Christian deity wants to think

[Cronos]

.Well, I guess when you don't have scripture, you have insults...Nothing new under the sun..

Ah, but we do have Christian scripture. Your non-Christian cult which rejects our Christian bible can believe whatever it wants -- that's your choice.
