Selah Posted September 16, 2009 Posted September 16, 2009 Wow...some of the things said there are very hateful... Do you want help defending Church tradition? Purgatory? Speaking out against sola scriptura? "Man made" tradition?
CorMaria Posted September 16, 2009 Author Posted September 16, 2009 I'm not so sure. It's not my forum, I don't even have an account on there. My friend showed me the link and what was happening. There seems to be a vast ammount of copy and pasting.
eagle_eye222001 Posted September 16, 2009 Posted September 16, 2009 Looks like half the side of a conversation with some very serious allegations made without any evidence.

CorMaria Posted September 16, 2009 Author Posted September 16, 2009 I came across the same thing the other day. There were some street preachers giving it to the Church, they approached me with the 'are you saved' line, I eventually told them that I am Catholic and I got blasted. When it was my turn to reply, they walked away not wanting to hear my evil, twisted theology. I have a great reputation on this site. -2
Selah Posted September 16, 2009 Posted September 16, 2009 Do what I do: Walk past a street preacher and scream at the top of your lungs, "I PRAY TO MARY!!!!"

I've seen nothing heterodox from you.

Do not take what such people say personally. We should not let the devil burden us with such flimsy attacks. Take my advice and ignore the reputation thing.....some do not vote appropriately.

[/quote] I agree. Don't let that stop you from posting. If you are consistently orthodox and charitable in what you post, your rep will (hopefully) eventually reflect that.

Do you want help defending Church tradition? Purgatory? Speaking out against sola scriptura? "Man made" tradition? [/quote] Of course you are railing against the word of God when you minimize the authoity of Holy Writ which MUST take precedent over any and all spiritual authorities. Paul says, "All scripture is given by inspiration of God and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for instruction in righteousness, that the man of God MAY BE PERFECT, thoroughly furnished unto every good work." (2 Tim 3:16). As usual amongst Catholics, God must never be given the luxury of saying what He means and meaning what He says, but His words are always distorted and squeezed like a dishrag to support anything and everything the Roman Catholic Church says, whom no one must ever question. BALONEY! Let's get to it right here and now Selah. For your position to be true, you would have to name for me JUST ONE good work that the Scriptures are NOT able to thoroughly furnish the man of God for. I defy you to answer the question because the clarity of God's word demands that a THOROUGHLY FURNISHED or "THOROUGHLY EQUIPPED" man (in another translation) has EVERYTHING HE NEEDS. Your position falls to the ground instantly and the subject is closed.

But do you think the Catholic church is the only one guilty? every church says the Bible is left open to interpretation. "Your position falls to the ground instantly and the subject is closed." as for that, [i]shame on you[/i]. You will never have the right to discredit someones position like that. We don't [b]know[/b] what is truely right, and what is truely wrong. I believe what I believe, you believe what you believe, and she believes what she believes, and we will never [b]know[/b] what is right until judgement, that is why it's called [i]faith[/i].
Selah Posted September 18, 2009 Posted September 18, 2009 [quote]The sick need doctors.[/quote] Yes, but if the sick don't want help, what are we to do? If these people want to believe we worship Mary and won't listen to us when we say they are wrong, what can we do about it? It's moot.

[/quote] well yes I agree argueing with them will only make them ardent in what they think. but Prayer never has to be a lost cause. and I understand what your saying. I can accept that.

sacredheartandbloodofjesus Posted September 18, 2009 Posted September 18, 2009 Im seeing with my very own eyes right here and now the good trees and the bad trees. Christopher is bearing good charitable fruit by having a resonable argumentetive state about him. Storm appears to be ranting and raving and selah is not biting back...hmmm...
