....” if Catholics deny the teachings by Catholicism about Mary, they are sent to hell. Out of the Catholic belief system, period”....
Now that I didn’t know.....so they have ‘no choice’ to speak candidly about this without appearing they could be denying it?...
....” if Catholics deny the teachings by Catholicism about Mary,...”
No, if Catholics deny the teachings by Catholicism about Mary they are called protestants.
Buy a clue.
Of course the Mormons are flatly denied the right to discuss certain things up fear of instant expulsion.
I was just going on what is stated in the first sentence of this thread, not the bolded area:
The Roman Catholic doctrine of the assumption of Mary teaches that she was assumed body and soul into heaven either without dying or shortly after death. This extraordinary claim was only officially declared to be a dogma of Roman Catholic faith in 1950, though it had been believed by many for hundreds of years. To dispute this doctrine, according to Rome’s teaching, would result in the loss of salvation. The official teaching of the Assumption comes from the decree Munificentissimus Deus by pope Pius XIIPretty plain it seems. No wonder no Catholics on this thread will dispute the fallacy of the assumption of Mary, they could lose their salvation!
Pretty sad to belong to such a belief system that if they decree something extraBiblical and you don't go along with it, they condemn you to hell.
Of course that wouldn't happen, any Catholic who wakes up to the truth won't lose their salvation, just their membership in the Catholic denomination.
Many, even some of the posters on this thread, have had to leave Catholicism and then discovered what a relationship with Jesus is like. It's glorious, but a hard row to hoe and the indoctrination is so fierce and frightening.
