Dave Posted March 15, 2005 Posted March 15, 2005 I noticed this dialogue when browsing the Baptist Board ... any thoughts? [url="http://www.baptistboard.com/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi/topic/28/3108/1.html"]http://www.baptistboard.com/cgi-bin/ultima.../28/3108/1.html[/url]?

Paphnutius Posted March 15, 2005 Posted March 15, 2005 (edited) Has anyone thought about talking about the book of James with these people? That is why James caused Luther so many problems. It threw a wrench into his whole works. If they want to spout about relying on scripture, then why did Luther want to take a book out? Because it disproved sola fides. I am sure we all know James 2:12-17. I grew up around a lot of Baptists, I am sorry but most fo them are awfully closed on even thinking about the concept of faith and works. I would recommend just dropping the discussion with them. If they are going to ignore James, no amount of biblical quoting will help you. We were given a canon for a reason: because no one book is exhaustive of the faith. Edited March 15, 2005 by Paphnutius
cmotherofpirl Posted March 15, 2005 Posted March 15, 2005 If you make a valid argument or they discover you are catholic you will be booted.

Norseman82 Posted March 15, 2005 Posted March 15, 2005 I found it ironic that there is an ad for a Catholic vocations discernment organization on a Baptist website! [url="http://vocationsplacement.org/"]http://vocationsplacement.org/[/url]
Kilroy the Ninja Posted March 16, 2005 Posted March 16, 2005 Wow. That Sirach guy seems to be ok. How very.
MichaelFilo Posted March 16, 2005 Posted March 16, 2005 Good to see Ironmonk... and Sirach is probably an Eastern Orthodox guy. Or a hiding Catholic; but I'm inclined to say Eastern Orthodox. God bless, Mikey

"His" profile states that he's Christian, and if you want to get technical, Catholics were first called Christian before they were called Catholic. "He's" never stated that he wasn't Catholic. :ph34r: Your servant in Christ, ironmonk

MichaelFilo Posted March 16, 2005 Posted March 16, 2005 You know, I assume everyone is a he unless proven otherwise. When referencing to people who I don't know the sex of, I assume a masculine pronoun. Its the traditional practice in English, although as my English book would proclaim, it is no longer the practice of contemparary English and can be found offensive. Whatever the case maybe, I'm a man of traditons, and am slow to part from them. God bless, Mikey

MichaelFilo Posted March 16, 2005 Posted March 16, 2005 Wow, how did I miss the fact that Sirach and Ironmonk are one... The Ironmonk strikes again... God bless, Mikey
Kilroy the Ninja Posted March 16, 2005 Posted March 16, 2005 I called it. And that's why I'm the ninja....

[/quote] I didn't use the term Catholic as my religion... I used Chrsitian, which the truest meaning of Christian is Catholic. Here is my latest: [url="http://www.baptistboard.com/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi/topic/28/3123/"]http://www.baptistboard.com/cgi-bin/ultima.../topic/28/3123/[/url] Have you noticed that if they don't relize that your Catholic, they'll let you keep posting. Since the gaurd is down, I think this will help some be a little more open to the truth. I'm not saying the Catholic Church is right, or wrong for that matter, I'm simply showing them that they have major misunderstandings, in hopes to kindle a blaze with their little spark of interest. They haven't been deleting all my links, so I am making progress (until one of them see this). This latest post is to actually see what they have to say about the questions possed, not to attack them. God Bless, ironmonk
