“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.
Because you can’t or won’t try to prove your point.
That’s the thing if we discussed scripture then at least we’d have a starting point, but I don’t accept man made doctrines from any ‘Church’.
