Re: Am i doomed ?
Friend, if you want to leave the catholic church, you should probably figure out why you want to leave. If you want to join us (the saved® ) then you should know why you want to be saved.
Have you talked to your priest about your reading of the Bible (hopefully KJV1611)? What did he say? Perhaps you should ask why Tyndale (a translator of the bible) was arrested and tried for heresy, strangled and burnt at the stake.
The reason he was tried, was because he translated the bible into common English. Instead of the Bible being the sole domain of the clergy, it was now available to everyone. This reduced the catholic churches stranglehold on the population. The priests would read latin, the people had no idea what they were saying, and the catholic clergy could set whatever dogma they wanted, because no one knew what was in the bible.
The Bible (KJV1611) is what holds the information for your salvation. It (the bible) isn't your salvation. You must read and understand it to be saved. Just eating a piece of cracker and sipping on some wine isn't going to do it.
