Re: Why Roman Catholic Papists Are NOT Christians

Gee 'Steve', no chapter or verse? Why am I not surprised. Mull on the following for a bit:
Luke 11:27 And it came to pass, as he spake these things, a certain woman of the company lifted up her voice, and said unto him, Blessed is the womb that bare thee, and the paps which thou hast sucked.
Luke 11:28 But he said, Yea rather, blessed are they that hear the word of God, and keep it.

If any verses of scripture at any time had an opportunity to exalt Mary, it would be here. But Jesus totally goes the other way and leaves Catholic false doctrine in the serpent's dust.

PRAISE JESUS! The papists just can't hang!

Re: Why Roman Catholic Papists Are NOT Christians

In that case, what do you call the man who helped convince you? Again, all historical proof says the Catholic Church was truth, and its the Truth of Christ? Oh and what about this 1Corinthians 4:15 Even if you should have countless guides to Christ, yet you do not have many fathers, for I became your father in Christ Jesus through the gospel.

Friend, Jesus walks with me in my life. He tells me to follow Him. I do not need the 'suprise in the robes' priest to drone on and on and i'interpert' the Holy Bible. I READ it!
A guide is not a person I worship friend. Nor do I pray to my Pastor. I drop to my knees for Jesus!

Re: Why Roman Catholic Papists Are NOT Christians

First off, Catholics don't worship Mary, we honor her,

Yeah, Yeah, tell that to Jesus! You bow down before her graven image. Your place in the Darkness and Flames is assured.

M't:16:15: He saith unto them, But whom say ye that I am?
M't:16:16: And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God.
M't:16:17: And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Bar-jona: for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father which is in heaven.
M't:16:18: And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.

See, Only Jesus can save us from Hell, Not Peter. The Rock is the Christ, the Son of the living God.

Don’t believe me? Or you don’t believe God?

1Co:10:4: And did all drink the same spiritual drink: for they drank of that spiritual Rock that followed them: and that Rock was Christ.

Re: Why Roman Catholic Papists Are NOT Christians

First off, Catholics don't worship Mary, we honor her, but thats it, we ask for her prayers because we believe we can ask for our brothers and sisters in Heaven to pray for us.

On the basis of what Bible teaching do you believe that? How many mediators between God and men are there?

1 Tim. 2:5-6: For [there is] one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus; Who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time.

Oh and what about this 1Corinthians 4:15 Even if you should have countless guides to Christ, yet you do not have many fathers, for I became your father in Christ Jesus through the gospel.

What do you make of that verse and Matthew 23:9? Please answer without implying that they contradict each other, since God's Word is perfect and therefore perfectly internally consistent.

Re: Why Roman Catholic Papists Are NOT Christians

In that case, what do you call the man who helped convince you?...

They call him Pastor, or Zeke, or Ezekiel, just not late for dinner.

...Again, all historical proof says the Catholic Church was truth...

Would any of this "historical proof" just happen to come from the Catholic church itself?

Re: Why Roman Catholic Papists Are NOT Christians

Perhaps you can justfy the following:

Isaiah 42:8 I am the LORD: that is my name: and my glory will I not give to another, neither my praise to graven images.

Matthew 23:8 But be not ye called Rabbi: for one is your Master, even Christ; and all ye are brethren.
Matthew 23:9 And call no man your father upon the earth: for one is your Father, which is in heaven.
Tell me, what do you call your 'pope'?

If you ask me, this is pretty clear regarding what God thinks of Catholicks:
Matthew 15:6 And honour not his father or his mother, he shall be free. Thus have ye made the commandment of God of none effect by your tradition.
Matthew 15:7 Ye hypocrites, well did Esaias prophesy of you, saying,
Matthew 15:8 This people draweth nigh unto me with their mouth, and honoureth me with their lips; but their heart is far from me.
Matthew 15:9 But in vain they do worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men.

Acts 1:14 These all continued with one accord in prayer and supplication, with the women, and Mary the mother of Jesus, and with his brethren.
(The last time Mary is mentioned in the Bible, the apostles are praying with her - not to her)

Acts 4:12 Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.

Well 'Steve', what does the Bible say about worshiping anyone but Him? Chapter, verse please.

Re: Why Roman Catholic Papists Are NOT Christians

So if the Catholic faith is a "cult" then why was it the first Church, started by Jesus Himself? (im a convert from the Baptist faith by the way) but doing some research, the Catholic faith is what makes the most sense. God bless you

Dear Mary-worshiper;

Wrong. Baptists are the original Christians. Read THIS.

Please make a thread of your own in the "Introductions" section of the forum, so that we can properly greet you. Tell us about yourself, your church, and how you came to find Jesus.

And if you're here to flame us, better take a look at THIS before making an even bigger ass out of yourself.

YIC,
