the church

[Cruciform]

When a person enters a Catholic church, they are taught to bow to the statues and images up front on the "altar". They also sit and approve of the man in front that has told them to call him 'father'. They watch and approve of that man himself bowing to the cross and the images, and also incensing those images. How can one who loves God go into such an evil place?

You have been decisively answered more than once on every one of these points by several Catholics on TOL, yet here you are trying to put forth the same already-answered claims. One must therefore conclude that you simply lack the capacity to mentally grasp the answers you've repeatedly received. May God help you in your ignorance.

There is no excuse for your disobedience.

Why did the Holy Spirit find it pretty much unimportant and so trivial that he included it only one Gospel... yet you make a mountain out if it and it is a central pillar of your faith?

 

[SaulToPaul 2]

May God help you in your ignorance.

The irony, by one ignorantly worshiping Baal.

You're going to have to take that up with Him you nitwit.

Nope.

Nope.

Nothing nit witish about it at all... Scriptures are a witness... and scripture also calls us to believe only what 3 or more witnesses affirm. The verse you rely on is an out-lier... possibly an editorial inclusion and not inspired by God... much like the woman taken into adultery passage.

There is no excuse for your disobedience.

Thus merely proving my statements in Post #2122 above.

(Incidentally, refusing to follow your preferred interpretations of the Bible hardly equates to "disobedience." Get over yourself.)

How is this: There is no excuse for you not obeying.

Have you ever watched The Journey Home on EWTN?

the church doesn't know what that means but she does teach

-Ephesians 1:7 King James Version (KJV)

7 In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace;

 

[SaulToPaul 2]

the church doesn't know what that means but she does teach

Eph 2:8-9 (KJV)

Why wouldn't the church know what this means?

I have not. Am I missing anything?
