I need to know how you do that. You sit down with a Bible. We all agree that the Bible was inspired by the Holy Spirit.
The Bible that you hold was preserved over the centuries by the Catholic Church.
All Catholics believe all the scriptures that are in your Bible.
You believe all the scriptures that are in your Bible.
The scriptures tell us that Christ founded the Christian church....Catholics believe that and you believe that.
Catholicism is the oldest Christian church.
Everybody knows that.
The Catholic church has been under the guidance of the Holy Spirit from the beginning....I will be with you from now until the end of time.
If you are actually following scripture and The Holy Spirit, then you are also following the Catholic church....there is no other possibility...NONE!!
Oh, baloney.
You sure do!
John 14:26 But the Advocate, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, he will teach you all things and bring to your remembrance all that I have said to you.
It's simple!
The book (that you guys put together) says to ASK.
You have not because you ask not.
You guys like a few verses in James why not accept THIS as truth as well??
James 1:5
If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.
Trust the words your church has assembled, protected and published in the form of the Bible.
Use the Force; Luke!!!
Isaiah 55:10-11
"For as the rain and the snow come down from heaven, And do not return there without watering the earth And making it bear and sprout, And furnishing seed to the sower and bread to the eater;
So will My word be which goes forth from My mouth; It will not return to Me empty, Without accomplishing what I desire, And without succeeding in the matter for which I sent it.
