I have Jesus, and once one has Him, there NOTHING to add.

Prove to me by scripture that your claim is correct then I’ll accept what you have to say.

“Prove to me by scripture that your claim is correct then I’ll accept what you have to say.”

I don’t believe you ever would. Protestants here routinely demand verses as proof for things they have been taught by their Protestant masters to believe are false. Verses are then posted to them. The Protestants then rely on their Protestant understanding of doctrine (all man-made) to say that those verses don’t mean what Catholics say they mean. Some Protestants take that song and dance a step further by using the Bible to show that the Bible doesn’t mean what the Bible says - all without seeing the obvious problem this causes for sola scriptura (yet again).

And here is the other problem:

“I have Jesus, and once one has Him, there NOTHING to add.”

I said nothing about “adding” anything. I said having Christ more completely. You have already resorted to distorting what I said. Perhaps you did it because what I said doesn’t fit your Protestant doctrines, but in any case, it is not only a wrong thing to do but it tells me that your other claim (”Prove to me...then I’ll accept what you have to say”) is simply not believable.

Pay special attention to the bolded verses so that you may do what you wrote you would do.

Simon Peter, a servant and an apostle of Jesus Christ, to them that have obtained like precious faith with us through the righteousness of God and our Saviour Jesus Christ: Grace and peace be multiplied unto you through the knowledge of God, and of Jesus our Lord, According as his divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that hath called us to glory and virtue: Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust. And beside this, giving all diligence, add to your faith virtue; and to virtue knowledge; And to knowledge temperance; and to temperance patience; and to patience godliness; And to godliness brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness charity. For if these things be in you, and abound, they make you that ye shall neither be barren nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. But he that lacketh these things is blind, and cannot see afar off, and hath forgotten that he was purged from his old sins. Wherefore the rather, brethren, give diligence to make your calling and election sure: for if ye do these things, ye shall never fall: For so an entrance shall be ministered unto you abundantly into the everlasting kingdom of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.
-Second Peter, Catholic chapter one, Protestant verses one to eleven, as authorized by King James
