Thank you Pastor MacArthur for being so concise and accurate to God’s word. One sacrifice, one time is all we need to know and remember, once for all.

And he took bread, and when he had given thanks, he broke it and gave it to them, saying, “This is my body, which is given for you. Do this in remembrance of me.”

Isn't that the pure sacrifice offered worldwide that Malachi prophesied about?

Yeah and Ignatius, Iraeneus, Justin Martyr, Polycarp, Eusebius, Clement of Rome, and every other known Christian who died for Christ until Huldrych Zwingli was a false teacher, and is in hell.

Answer me: did apostles make and bow down to statues? Did Apostles ask passed on saints to pray for them? Or sprinkle "holy" water on believers? Or wore fishhead hat and costumes? Or cite hocus pocus when they serve the communion? They merely broke bread and passed around the table. Did they demand believers to kneel in front of them to serve them communion? Or did Peter ask believers to kiss his hands and feet? Or did Apostles venerate statues, bones or relics?* *You do see clearly it all came from practices of believers after the Apostles - which Rcs claimed its from early writings. They had already deviated from the Apostles and Jesus. What Rcc called doctrines were merely partly traditions of errant believers + partly its own self traditions. Totally not from Jesus and Apostles at all.*

@artax7664 I am also confused. Stick with RCC. Delve deep into the trenches of history. See what the early church thought. See if you can find their take on many of your views. If the early church has your views then keep following your belief. If they do not. Then start looking for a church kr belief that does. RCC all the way. Or be orthodox. I've learned toward it but love the RCC

[@artax7664]

@@thovenach My beliefs come straight from Jesus, or His apostles. Everything I believe is straight from the authoritative Word of God. I always check any doctrine with the Bible. I’ve done some pretty extensive research on church history and I can’t say it’s a very strong case for the RCC. In fact, church history is exactly why I don’t trust the RCC. They are the modern day Pharisees. The church I attend isn’t perfect, but it doesn’t claim to be, nor does it have to be. I am the church. The ekklesia. The body of true believers is the church. The people who put 100% of their trust in Jesus is the church. The names written in the lambs book of life, that is the church and that church doesn’t need to be perfect. They just need to repent, and trust Jesus. The RCC however claims to be authoritative and infallible but lack any justification for this authority and infallibility and despite disagreement over doctrine and dogma within the church itself. So even if I did try to see if my beliefs align with theirs, I’d have to ask who? What time period? What pope? What bishop? Jesus should always be the foundation, the themelios, of our church. The church should be the the “hedraioma”, which is translated “pillar” in 1 Timothy 3:15 but actually means to prop or support in Greek. So the church should prop up or support the foundation which is Christ Jesus. Your faith, and growth in your relationship with God will be stunted by a dogmatic church like the RCC or the Orthodox Church. I follow only one Man, and that Man is also God with us. If you can prove beyond any doubt that I cannot have a relationship with God, or enter the kingdom of heaven without the Catholic Church, then I would convert today. I don’t know how you would do that without using scripture, and scripture is pretty clear. As of right now, these leaders have proven to be nothing more than flawed, corrupt, blasphemous or heretical wolves adorned in expensive exorbitant clothing and housed within excessive and elaborate buildings, preforming pagan like rituals. Sinners in need of grace. The RCC will wither and fade away just like everything else, but the Word of God is forever.

I was raised Catholic, went to Catholic school even, K-12. As a teenager I rebelled, was an atheist for about 8 years, then from 20 to 33 I believed in God but could not find a church I felt was home. This year that changed though & I'm baptized LDS now. Essentially I went from one of if not THE most ostracized sects of Christianity to one of if not THE most ostracized sects of Christianity. Whether Catholic, Protestant, Mormon or other, nothing turns me off more than someone more emphasized on others accepting his church above accepting Christ. No church is perfect. No church is inerrant. Churches are stewarded by men who are imperfect. I think of the "other exorcist" story where an apostle hurriedly tells Jesus that another man is invoking Jesus's name to cast out demons but Jesus calms this apostle telling him that what matters is that good is done by His name. I am also reminded of the several passages which remind us that a tree is to be judged by its fruit. Finally, I remember Paul in one of his epistles telling another disciple not to be preoccupied with what the disciple thought was a false church. Paul told him that this church would only survive if it taught Jesus's message correctly & if it didn't then it would dissolve without needing any action from them. I hope this might resonate with anyone reading it. I try to ALWAYS remember Matthew 22:37 & Romans 14:23 & I think I stay on track with my faith in Christ when I do.

[@SeanL-jw9rr]

If you believe offering Christ as a sacrifice repeatedly, whenever you feel like (aka "on demand"), and are also familiar with scripture, yet find nothing wrong with this, then you are most certainly on the wide path, my friend. Jesus died once for our sins and scripture could not be clearer on this specific point (1 Peter 3:18: For Christ also suffered once for sins, the righteous for the unrighteous, that he might bring us to God). (Romans 6:10: For the death he died he died to sin, once for all, but the life he lives he lives to God). The Holy Spirit did not use the phrase "once," on accident. Any other Christ is a knockoff. And I am not sorry to say this. If you still think you are in the right, read some quotes by the infallible popes (only God is infallible) and some "Church Fathers" over the years, and then tell me you aren't sick to your stomach. They brag about how they can control Christ, call Him down when "they" want, and parade Him through the streets, ...if they so wish. Truly blasphemous stuff, especially out of the mouths of supposedly infallible, or even holy men. Hope your eyes are opened my friend. Man-made institutions are always corrupt by their inherent nature. Jesus would never have accepted a physical church, for His Church is spiritual, and found in our hearts, by the awesome grace of God. When Jesus told Peter "On this rock I will build my church" ...He meant Himself. Christ is clearly the base of the church, and "everything" else is built around Him. Jesus is the cornerstone the builders rejected (and the Old Testament confirms the coming Christ as the rock, in multiple places, look for yourself if you don't believe me). Anyway, the Holy Word is incorruptible, and is all the instruction that you could ever need in life. I will pray for God to enlighten you as He has recently with myself. I don't forget very easily that I (not too long ago), was myself a part of the mass and basically never questioned "infallibility" or any other dogma or doctrine. And praying to Mary and the saints when Jesus is our sole intercessor, (again scripture emphasizes this point many, many times) is just another blasphemy that comes to mind. Aye. I sincerely hope you can see the light and share the one true Gospel with your friends, enemies, and acquaintances... If I can even help one soul to be saved, I would be ever thankful to God for both the opportunity and the blessing. (Receipts: Dedicated and brought up as a well-schooled Catholic, all the way through an excellent local Jesuit high school. And was an immovable Catholic for the first 25 years or so of my life. Currently, a non-denominational believer in the awesome power and glory of His Holy Word) Praise be to Jesus! 😊

However those who believe and do not do the will of God will be beaten severely (Purgatory basis).

Unlike your ancestors who ate and still died, whoever eats this bread will live forever.’” John 6:51-58. Justin Martyr, who metored under John (the same John that watched Jesus die at the foot of the cross) says this And this food is called among us Eucharistia [the Eucharist], of which no one is allowed to partake but the man who believes that the things which we teach are true, and who has been washed with the washing that is for the remission of sins, and unto regeneration, and who is so living as Christ has enjoined. For not as common bread and common drink do we receive these; but in like manner as Jesus Christ our Saviour, having been made flesh by the Word of God, had both flesh and blood for our salvation, so likewise have we been taught that the food which is blessed by the prayer of His word, and from which our blood and flesh by transmutation are nourished, is the flesh and blood of that Jesus who was made flesh. -First Apology, 66 The romans actually used to mock christians for being cannibals because of the Euchrist.

You’re trying to say that people dying for the Catholic faith means it must be true. My friend, people die for Islam, and for other belief systems too. It means nothing. You must not know how strong the devil’s delusion is. He’s capable of blinding your mind so bad that despite you having clear evidence before your very eyes contradicting what your mind says, you still believe your mind. Now I won’t be the guy who just throws this around when I say the devils blinded you Catholics, without explaining why. The truth of the matter is, the idea is to get to know God personally. And the Roman Catholic tradition doesn’t open the door to that. People become Catholics and stay Catholics for decades and never come to know God intimately. I was raised Catholic and encountered Jesus at 21. He led me straight to the Gospel. I repented and received him as my Lord and Savior in my car without getting baptized and he instantly entered my body. Didn’t have to do anything else. Now tell me, if I already know God without having had to do anything else but believe in Jesus, what is the need for religion? Christ hasn’t left my body for 8 years now and I’ve sinned a whole lot. And I’m saying this because I’m not perfect, even though he transformed me. Not because I intentionally go out trying to sin. I don’t anymore since I got saved. Heck, I haven’t done anything after sinning, to get him to forgive me (because I know how true the sufficiency of his finished work is). And, he hasn’t rebuked me, disciplined me, or left me. Again, I now know God personally and intimately, and didn’t have to become catholic for this. I have family members who have been Catholic for decades, and none of them know Jesus. What’s the point of the tradition? This is why I say Catholicism is of Satan. It doesn’t give you any relationship with God. It rejects faith alone, but faith alone is how the Spirit of God enters you. I can testify to that. See also Galatians 3:1-5. So if the only means by which God enters you is rejected by the RCC, that must mean it’s of satan, since he’s the god of this world.

Amen After coming back to God I almost walked away from The Catholic Church due to my own ignorance and feeling peer pressure from other ignorant Christians. After looking more at it it seems that demonitions like Protestisim are just basically like baby Christians. They misunderstand the faith and don't know a lot, so they lean towards themselves and other people more instead of to tradition. (Which The Bible even calls for). I use to think that MacArthur was a great man, but now listening to him there's so much about Catholicism that he gets wrong and the majority of people listening to him just eat it up. I pray that we can all be unified as one in the body of Christ just as The Bible says. Amen

Sadly in order for anyone to believe MacArthur's hateful and wildly inaccurate narrative you would have to had never seriously investigated what the Catholic Church teaches. This applies to many Catholics. I am certain that the best place to learn Catholic doctrine is not from a Baptist pastor who only knows enough about Catholicism to spin some lies about it, be so to convince those who have not yet, or will not, do the work themselves. This is why MacArthur has never debated a Catholic. He knows his false accusations would be exposed and he would no longer get the satisfaction of being self-righteous. He says he does not take pleasure in the damnation of others, but he damns others in violation of God's Holy Word. Lord, have mercy on him.

Why is that so? Explain coherently intelligently. 1. Purgatory 2. Confessing to priests 3. Office of pope or priests4. Pope being the vicar (representation of Christ, usurping the authority of God)5.

Sacrament was never the real body and blood of Christ as RC church claimed (Real meaning real blood and body, bcos it didnt really turned "bloody" did it?)10. Salvation by (works (7sacraments) +faith) was never in the Bible. Real salvation is by grace through faith as seen in Bible. 11. Rosary, set repetitive prayers, hail Mary 10000 times12. Mass - putting Christ on the altar again and again13. Mary as queen of heaven 14. Mary as Ark of the new covenant. 15. Mary as the mother of heavenly Jesus thus Mary exist before Christ16. Immersion of infant for baptism17. Holy water18. Celibacy of priests (no office of priests in NT anyway, only priesthood of all believers)19. Kissing of statues20. Changing of 10 commandments. COmmandment of graven image removed by Catholic CHurch in Catholic Catechism. Splitting of another commandment into 2commandments. 21. Catholic church changed Bible verse Gen 3:15 (And I will put enmity Between you and the woman, And between your seed and her Seed; He shall bruise your head, And you shall bruise His heel."). 'He' and 'His' referring to Christ. Catholics changed it to (Gen 3:15 And I will put enmity Between you and the woman, And between your seed and her Seed; She shall bruise your head, And you shall bruise Her heel.") 'She' and 'Her' refers to Mary. 22. Catholic Church use Rev 12 to refer to Mary as 'queen of heaven', when Rev 12:6 clearly refers to Israel escaping the Great Tribulation. Mary cannot be alive to escape the Great Tribulation. 23. Catholic Church refers to Mary as 'Queen of heaven', but 'Queen of Mary' in the Bible is a demonic entity Astoreth or Ishtar, the female deity partner of Baal. 5 verses in Jeremiah as proof.24. Catholic church refers to Mary as the Mediatress, Co redemptress, helper of Christ, firstborn of all creation .. Mary cannot be the mediatress. Jesus is the one and only Mediator between God and man. Only Jesus redeems. Only the Holy Spirit is the Helper sent by Jesus. Only Jesus is the firstborn of all creation. 25. Roman Catholicism has “saints” one can pray to in order to gain a particular blessing. For example, Saint Gianna Beretta Molla is the patron saint of fertility. Francis of Assisi is the patron saint of animals. There are multiple patron saints of healing and comfort. Nowhere is even a hint of this taught in Scripture. Just as the Roman pantheon of gods had a god of love, a god of peace, a god of war, a god of strength, a god of wisdom, etc., so the Catholic Church has a saint who is “in charge” over each of these and many other categories. Many Roman cities had a god specific to the city, and the Catholic Church provided “patron saints” for cities as well.26. Mary is called the gate of heaven? Mary has keys to paradise? Here are roman pagan teachers saying their man made goddess is their savior. None of these quotes have been denounced, on the contrary they are cited. "Open to us, O Mary, the gate of Paradise, since you have its keys! " St. Ambrose"God has entrusted the keys and treasures of Heaven to Mary."

Confessing to a priest : Jesus says confess your sins one to another. You dont like how its done , thats fair. Pope being vicar, kind of already made with the title of Pope not being in the Bible. Bishop is , the Pope being the Bishop of Rome. We ask the saints including Mary to pray for us, because they are alive in Christ. Penance , Jesus calls sinners to repentance. Part of that is making amends for passed mistakes and changing one's behavior. Worshiping idols: Catholics worship God The Father , The Son and The Holy Spirit. We bow to Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior. Jesus instituted the sacraments. Let me tell you about the Eucharist. It is the body, blood, soul and divinity of our Lord and Savior. It is not a symbol. Jesus took the bread and said this is my body , took the wine and said this is my blood. Jesus said if you eat his flesh and drink his blood you will have eternal life.

I'm not saying every claim the protestants made against the church wasn't founded, many were addressed during the counter reformation, and Saint Thomas Bellermane does a fantastic job addressing the legitimate claims and debunking the illegitimate claims of the various protestant sects.

All the apostolic churches, ie Catholic , Orthodox, Oriental Orthodox, & Oriental Churches agree on: + the definition & number of sacraments + the Mass being a sacrifice + the bread and wine offerings becoming the body blood soul and divinity of Jesus Christ. Also all agree that a sacrifice is the killing of the victim and the sprinkling of the victim’s blood on the altar (ie not just the killing of the victim). Also all agree that Jesus Christ died once on Calvery (ie he is not re-crucified during Mass). And Calvery is made present during Mass. The ongoing sacrifice is the action of Christ (as priest) offers his blood (as victim) on the altar in heaven in front of the Trinity.

@@1234poppycat The Enemy from within destroying the Catholic Church ..by E. Gajewski Over one hundred years ago Pope Pius X warned us of the enemy not from without but from within. Vatican II, the cult of man. Pope Paul 6th equated Vatican II to the cult of man. Vatican II foundationally speaking comes from man and not God. It is the religion of man which hides behind the whole “human dignity” babble just as Pope St. Pius X warned. Vatican II is not centered around the Church’s teaching on the Social Kingship of Christ but rather of the united brotherhood of man. Archbishop Lefebvre understood when he said, ““We cannot work together with these enemies of Our Lord’s reign. “We cannot follow these people. They’re in apostasy, … “How did the union, against nature, between the Church and the Revolution give birth to the monster (Vatican II), whose incoherencies now fill with fright even its most ardent supporters?” (Archbishop Lefebvre, “They Have Uncrowned Him”, 1988) ….. Me: Pope Frances : 30th Jan 2021 Pope criticises Catholics who reject Vatican 2 Quote “ Those who reject the teachings of the Second Vatican Council are placing themselves outside the church, either you are with the Church and therefore you follow the council, or you interpret it in your own away - according to your desire - and you do not stand with the Church,” Warning against a mentality which says “we are the true Catholics”, he cited those believers who split from the Roman Church following the First Vatican Council (1869-70) over the teaching on papal infallibility, and are part of the “Old Catholic Church”. Francis said that today this group ordains women, which runs contrary to official Catholic teaching. The 84-year-old Jesuit Pope told members of the National Catechetical Office of the Italian Bishops’ Conference. Me: look up the list of “Old Catholic Church “ ~~~~~~~~~~ The Pew study, issued Aug. 5, showed that 69% of all self-identified Catholics said they believed the bread and wine used at Mass are not Jesus, but instead "symbols of the body and blood of Jesus Christ." The other 31% believed in the real presence of Jesus in the Eucharist, known as transubstantiation. "Most Catholics who believe that the bread and wine are symbolic do not know that the church holds that transubstantiation occurs," said Gregory Smith, associate director of research at Pew Research Center in Washington. "Overall, 43% of Catholics believe that the bread and wine are symbolic and also that this reflects the position of the church. "Still, one in five Catholics - 22% - reject the idea of transubstantiation, even though they know about the church's teaching," Smith said. Me: Even Robert Barron was shocked at the findings!.. Look at the Catholic Charismatic Movement, I’ve posted in more detail and growing fast. One pope said you out if you reject Vat2 the other says you in apostasy? Frances says the Old Catholic Church ordain women yet he ordains gay priests, gays taking mass, shuffle priests….heck pope Frances has his face on the LGBT magazine, beware RC you might be outside the church, funny when one pope discredits another pope …”apostolic succession “….ha ha So cult man you in or out 😂……

Yet Num 5:17 says “holy water” was water used to test adulterous women in OT temple. Hardly the same. Those were for Old Covenant Jews. Not New Testament Christians. 9. Catholics say Peter was pope - bishop of all bishops. Yet BIBLE says Peter was just a leader of the Jerusalem Church. Bible says nothing of the office of bishop of bishops. Gal 2:9, Mat 16:18. 10. Catholics say there is a seat of Peter. Yet BIBLE says nothing about it. Jesus said “not to lord over others”. 11. Catholics has clergy priesthood.

Yet Bible says repent, confess and sins will be forgiven. Catholic Bible changes the word “repentance” in NT into “penance”. Original Greek NT does not use or mean the word penance. Penance = work to atone for sins. Repentance = change of heart. 1 John 1:9, Mat 6. 14. Catholics say Mary went straight to heaven without dying. Yet Bible says nothing about it. 15.

@@donaldcooley897 Sorry my friend, but your argument is not with me here, but with Scripture itself. I stated what Jesus Himself said in The Bible about being born again: "Very truly I tell you, no one can see The Kingdom of God unless they are born again." John 3:3 We already know by Jesus words that being born again means to be born of water and The Spirit. John 3:5 This is what Baptism is. So you are saying that Christ Himself is wrong? You have to be Baptized to be born again, and there is only one Baptism no matter what denomination you are from. You can't be born born again after you already were born again. There is only one born again. Just like human birth. You can't be born from the womb twice, and you can't be Baptized twice cause it makes no sense. People who are Baptized more than once are only doing it for themselves, and people who say they're "born again" without a Baptism are just making things up. If OP was Baptized as Catholic, then they are a Catholic for life, unless they were denounced from Catholicism by their Bishop or The Holy Father. OP saying "I felt born again at 32 and rejected Catholicism, so now I'm a born again non-Catholic" doesn't actually make it so. This is just deception and delusion. Empty words with no real meaning. That's why it's important to not only quote Scripture, but also to understand it and live it. If being a born again Christian was just about people only saying that they were born again whenever they *felt* like they were, then there would be no need for Baptism, and Jesus words would be wrong. THAT is my point. I made TWO different points in my comment my friend, but it seems that you just read the word "Catholic" and then go on an unlogical tirade because of an ignorant bias you seem to have for Catholicism. (Same thing with MacArthur.) To be honest I didn't even read most of your last comment either because of your tirade. You don't understand what I'm saying, mix up denominations as being an entire Religion, and then have the blatant ordasity to question someone else's Salvation. You need to get right my friend.

[@1234poppycat]

Explaining the heresy of Mr John MacArthur.... His points on the Eucharist The easiest and first to refute is that he says Jesus made ONECE and for all sacrifice .. That has been the teaching of Catholicism for 2000 years ... The Eucharist is part of the ONE sacrifice Jesus so in the Eucharistic prayer we hear "as we join in this ONE living and perfect sacrifice....." Then we come to his scripture claims.......John 6:30 begins in the synagogue at Capernaum. The Jews asked Jesus what sign he could perform so that they might believe in him. As a challenge, they noted that “our ancestors ate manna in the desert.” Could Jesus top that? He told them the real bread from heaven comes from the Father. “Give us this bread always,” they said. Jesus replied, “I am the bread of life; whoever comes to me will never hunger, and whoever believes in me will never thirst.” At this point the Jews understood him to be speaking metaphorically. Jesus first repeated what he said, then summarized: “‘I am the living bread which came down from heaven; if any one eats of this bread, he will live forever; and the bread which I shall give for the life of the world is my flesh.’ The Jews then disputed among themselves, saying, ‘How can this man give us his flesh to eat?’” (John 6:51-52). His listeners were stupefied because now they understood Jesus literally-and correctly. He again repeated his words, but with even greater emphasis, and introduced the statement about drinking his blood: “Truly, truly, I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of man and drink his blood, you have no life in you; he who eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day. For my flesh is food indeed, and my blood is drink indeed. He who eats my flesh and drinks my blood abides in me, and I in him” (John 6:53-56). Notice that Jesus made no attempt to soften what he said, no attempt to correct “misunderstandings,” for there were none. Our Lord’s listeners understood him perfectly well. They no longer thought he was speaking metaphorically. In John 6:60 we read: “Many of his disciples, when they heard it, said, ‘This is a hard saying; who can listen to it?’” (It is here, in the rejection of the Eucharist, that Judas fell away; look at John 6:64.) “After this, many of his disciples drew back and no longer went about with him” (John 6:66). This is the only record we have of any of Christ’s followers forsaking him for purely doctrinal reasons. If they erred in taking a metaphor in a literal sense, why didn’t he call them back and straighten things out? Both the Jews, who were suspicious of him, and his disciples, who had accepted everything up to this point, would have remained with him had he said he was speaking only symbolically. But he did not correct these protesters. Twelve times he said he was the bread that came down from heaven; four times he said they would have “to eat my flesh and drink my blood.” John 6 was an extended promise of what would be instituted at the Last Supper-and it was a promise that could not be more explicit. Now when you say Christ was speaking only metaphorically by comparing verses like John 10:9 (“I am the door”) and John 15:1 (“I am the true vine”). The problem is that there is not a connection to John 6:35, “I am the bread of life.” “I am the door” and “I am the vine” make sense as metaphors because Christ is like a door-we go to heaven through him-and he is also like a vine-we get our spiritual sap through him. But Christ takes John 6:35 far beyond symbolism by saying, “For my flesh is food indeed, and my blood is drink indeed” (John 6:55). Jesus continues: “As the living Father sent me, and I live because of the Father, so he who eats me will live because of me” (John 6:57). The Greek word used for “eats” (trogon) is very blunt and has the sense of “chewing” or “gnawing.” This is not the language of metaphor. You appeal to John 6:63: “It is the spirit that gives life, the flesh is of no avail; the words that I have spoken to you are spirit and life.” You say this means that eating real flesh is a waste. But does this make sense? Are we to understand that Christ had just commanded his disciples to eat his flesh, then said their doing so would be pointless? Is that what “the flesh is of no avail” means? “Eat my flesh, but you’ll find it’s a waste of time”-is that what he was saying? Hardly. In John 6:63 “flesh profits nothing” refers to mankind’s inclination to think using only what their natural human reason would tell them rather than what God would tell them. Thus in John 8:15-16 Jesus tells his opponents: “You judge according to the flesh, I judge no one. Yet even if I do judge, my judgment is true, for it is not I alone that judge, but I and he who sent me.” So natural human judgment, unaided by God’s grace, is unreliable; but God’s judgment is always true. Also in John 6:63, “The words I have spoken to you are spirit” does not mean “What I have just said is symbolic.” The word “spirit” is never used that way in the Bible. The line means that what Christ has said will be understood only through faith; only by the power of the Spirit and the drawing of the Father (cf. John 6:37, 44-45, 65). Paul wrote to the Corinthians: “The cup of blessing which we bless, is it not a participation in the blood of Christ? The bread which we break, is it not a participation in the body of Christ?” (1 Cor. 10:16). So when we receive Communion, we actually participate in the body and blood of Christ, not just eat symbols of them. Paul also said, “Therefore whoever eats the bread and drinks the cup of the Lord unworthily will have to answer for the body and blood of the Lord. . . . For any one who eats and drinks without discerning the body, eats and drinks judgment on himself” (1 Cor. 11:27, 29). “To answer for the body and blood” of someone meant to be guilty of a crime as serious as homicide. How could eating mere bread and wine “unworthily” be so serious? Paul’s comment makes sense only if the bread and wine became the real body and blood of Christ. Anti-Catholics also claim the early Church took this chapter symbolically. Ignatius of Antioch, who had been a disciple of the apostle John and who wrote a letter to the Smyrnaeans about A.D. 110, said, referring to “those who hold heterodox opinions,” that “they abstain from the Eucharist and from prayer, because they do not confess that the Eucharist is the flesh of our Savior Jesus Christ, flesh which suffered for our sins and which the Father, in his goodness, raised up again” (6:2, 7:1). Forty years later, Justin Martyr, wrote, “Not as common bread or common drink do we receive these; but since Jesus Christ our Savior was made incarnate by the word of God and had both flesh and blood for our salvation, so too, as we have been taught, the food which has been made into the Eucharist by the Eucharistic prayer set down by him, and by the change of which our blood and flesh is nourished, . . . is both the flesh and the blood of that incarnated Jesus” (First Apology 66:1-20). Origen, in a homily written about A.D. 244, attested to belief in the Real Presence. “You are accustomed to take part in the divine mysteries, so you know how, when you have received the Body of the Lord, you reverently exercise every care lest a particle of it fall and lest anything of the consecrated gift perish” (Homilies on Exodus 13:3). Cyril of Jerusalem, in a catechetical lecture presented in the mid-300s, said, “Do not, therefore, regard the bread and wine as simply that, for they are, according to the Master’s declaration, the body and blood of Christ. Even though the senses suggest to you the other, let faith make you firm” (Catechetical Discourses: Mystagogic 4:22:9). It is this level of research prayer and understanding which has led three Church of England Bishops in just the last two years to give up so much power, wealth and status to join the Catholic Church to get closer to Christ..

That’s called eisegesis. Nobody reads the weather forecast or sports page like that, A “verse” is never to be interpreted in isolation. In hermeneutics a verse is interpreted in light of the paragraph it’s in.

Please explain coherently intelligently.* - submit to Roman pope to be saved - devote to Roman Mary to be saved - be in Roman Church to be saved - partake Roman sacraments to be saved - baptise in Roman baptism to be saved - do lots of works to be saved

[@thovenach]

1. Submission to the Pope- Submission to a higher authority is always good. Submission of wives to their husbands, Children to their elders, Christians to one another, everyone to their governing authority. Submitting to Gods will. Submitting to Gods teachers. Remember submission to the Pope does not mean that you are not free to do as you will but rather it shows that you are submitting to who Jesus put in charge of his Holy Catholic Church. Just the way you listen to your pastor we listen to the Pope. 2. Devotion to Mary- This does not save you but rather allows you another way to have someone praying for you. Devotion to Mary has not only drawn me closer to a relationship with Jesus but has solidified Jesus' Role as my savior. Without Mary there would be another woman who Catholics would have a devotion to. This is a practice that has taken place since the beginning but is not a mandatory thing. Jesus said "behold your mother and behold your son". Just as we are brought into the church to be brothers and sisters in christ she is our mother by being adopted into the church. Her being the mother of God solidifies that. This is an early christian belief and there are heresies that try to refute this in the early church that even Paul was dealing with. 3. Be in the Roman Church- There is one way to Jesus. The Church is built upon Peter. Hence the reason Jesus changed peters name from Simon to Peter. Many scholars, protestant included, have said that there is no doubt that Jesus was calling Peter the rock. 1 Peter 3 says that the Churches baptism is the new Noahs Ark and we are saved by destruction from it. 4. Sacraments- The Sacraments are biblical and were practiced in the early Church. The main one is the Eucharist. We believe that Jesus died once and for all and the sacrifice continues. Still one sacrifice but continued. Jesus is not killed daily but the one sacrifice is still being given to us. Confession was bestowed upon the apostles when Jesus gave them the power to forgive sins. Baptism was being practiced and even Peter says in 1peter 3:21 and this water symbolizes baptism that now saves you also-not the removal of dirt from the body but the pledge of a clear conscience toward God. The act of Baptism (Symbols of water) does not cleanse you but the spiritual counterpart does. 5. Baptism to be saved- Look above. Romans 6:4 says We are buried with him in Baptism into death that just as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we shoul walk in newness of life." 6. Works- James 2 goes on to say works with out faith is dead. Also faith without works is also dead. Catholic believe that Having Faith is part of it but without works your faith will not flourish. This is also true that you can have works but without faith there is nothing to be had. Now I ask you do you submit to a leader of some sort or are you your own pope making decisions based on what you believe the bible to say? Do you ever ask for intercessions from anyone living or dead from this world and now living in Heaven? Are you part of a church that you believe is helping guide you toward salvation? Do you submit to any traditions of your current church or have you made your own traditions. Maybe reading scripture daily with a cup of coffee? Praying a specific prayer? Do you have any traditions that you have made your own sacraments? Were you baptised and did it have any merit or was it not a real baptism? Was it your faith that saved you or was it the baptism that Peter said would save you? Works. Do you do any works to merit anything or are your works an outflowing of Faith? Is your faith dead because you do no works?

Anti-Catholic theology is heresy? Pro-Catholic teachings are heresy. Or do you believe Jesus Christ really wanted people to go out and torture and kill those who spoke against the pope? When Mary made it illegal to read the Bible. That was a pro-pope, anti-Jesus move. If the pope were really a representative of Jesus Christ such a move would not be possible. My favorite doctrine of Catholicism is the perfection of Mary. It is claimed that Jesus was born sinless only because Mary was sinless. But if Mary had be sinless to have sinless offspring, then her parents would’ve had to be sinless too. Otherwise she couldn’t have been sinless. Of course this means her grandparents had to be sinless. In fact every female who gave birth to anyone in Mary’s genealogy had to be sinless. Which means ultimately that Eve never sinned either. Therefore the whole ministry of Jesus Christ is worthless according to Catholic teachings.

[@Nose77904]

I think it is right next to the Holy Trinity...oops, that's not there either. ;-)

[@PaxMundi118]

@@Nose77904 I was talking about material sufficiency, not explicitness. My question, and it is uniquely important to Sola Scriptura (or Solo Scriptura, which is often applied in practice) is whether the teaching is substantiated in Scripture. The importance of this is obvious because of the very nature of the doctrine. The material sufficiency of the Trinity is overwhelming in Scripture. That is why is was proclaimed a dogma by an Ecumenical Council. Unfortunately, with Sola Scriptura poorly applied within a given community, like the Jehovah's Witness and Oneness Pentecostals, you can come to non-Trinatarian conclusions. The Council's decision is, for them, in no way binding. Other Protestants run into serious and similar problems. If Scripture is the only infallible rule for the Church, how do you define the Canon? Yes, that old question won't go away... R.C. Sproul, the great Presbyterian scholar, said that the Bible is "a fallible Canon of infallible books." This is incoherent. How can a book, a book that was contested for centuries, like Revelation, be trusted as infallible, if the Canon is fallible. Essentially you would be guessing what is Holy Scripture and what is not, based on subjective criteria. This could not be the sole trustworthy rule for the Church. So the issue of Sola Scriptura not being substantiated in Scripture is indeed a serious problem for Protestants. You may want to say it is the best system, or the most reliable, or consistent, but I do not think you cannot say with any certainty that it is true -- and you must acknowledge it's shortcomings, internal contradictions and the interpretative issues it creates. I could get into all of that, but perhaps if you feel that there is very strong, implicit basis for Sola or Solo Scriptura in the Bible, you can tell me. Keep in mind that in 1 Timothy, when Paul says, "All Scripture is God-breathed," he is referring to the Hebrew Bible (the Old Testament) and not the New Testament, which had yet to been written. In other "proofs," the greatness and power and authority of God's Word is established, but not the self-sufficiency of the written Word of God throughout. God bless.

@@jerrybraswell3958bro the Bible is a Catholic book you guys are so lost. Can you name me a verse where Jesus says Bible alone or supports sola scriptura

[@jediv9910]

​ @jaydee5863 *Citing John 6 does not help you. John 6 does not speak of Roman pagan Mass (sacrificing Jesus on a Roman altar back to God). Bible does not teach Roman pagan Mass. Wonder where RCs get all your ns?* *My Bible only teaches Communion or the Lord's Supper. RCs must have written your own Bible.* *Bible says clergy priesthood, altars and sacrifices were already obsolete. Heb 7,9,10. So where did Roman pagan priesthood and Roman altars come from?* you said However, our Lord is quite clear in John 6:53 when he says "Truly, truly, I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink His blood, you have no life in yourselves." He means this so literally that he says it twice, and his choice of words the second time shows that he is being literal and not figurative. It was so shocking that many people quit being his disciples that day.

​ @thovenach *Nice fairy tales. Isaiah 22 does not even speak of PEter or pope. And they are different key/keys. One singular key, one plural key. Lol.* *You are just proving Roman religion is man made again. Lolol* you said Authority that he was given which are the keys to the kingdom of Heaven. These keys are handed down to faithful Steward. Isaiah speaks fo this and jesus mirrors this handing of the keys to a steward. It is a continuation of the same old testament key that was handed from David to Eliakim. Isaiah 22:21-25 and Matthew 16:19.

All apostolic churches such as Roman Catholic, and Eastern Orthodox, are the true churches of Jesus Christ Protestantism is not in full truth. it’s only has a portion of the truth. I would like to see more understanding and love between the true apostlic churches and our separated brothers in Protestantism

[@timothyjordan5731]

How many times did the LORD GOD lead the Chosen People out of Egypt? Once? Then why do they commemorate it every year (Jesus included) as though they were/are at the actual event?

[@kd5499]

They commemorate it because God commanded it a holy day. He did not command us to sacrifice Jesus everyday. We can do a commemorative Lord's supper, but Jesus himself is not coming back daily to be an unblooded sacrifice on another altar

[@MrProsat]

@@kd5499 Jesus isn't sacrificed every day. If you have a problem with the Catholic Mass, have the decency to at least understand what you disagree with. It's tiring watching these straw man arguments.

[@jpcrotc]

@@MrProsat The Council of Trent wrote that during Mass that "Christ is contained and immolated." Immolation is a sacrificial killing.

[@MrProsat]

@@jpcrotc Look at the context. It states several times that Christ is not killed again, sacrificed again. His sacrifice is re-presented to us. We are drawn into it, despite being removed by 2000 years. Jesus, according to Hebrews and Romans INTERCEDES - present tense - for us. The heavenly scene of worship in Revelation also shows the Lamb that appears slain offering Himself for the sake of humanity. Immolation has multiple meanings, if you read the context, it should be clear what Trent says.

[@MultiSky7]

@@MrProsat Context?? Really?? Read Council of Trent, session 22. Chapter 2. Towards the end they even confirm that there is no difference between Jesus's sacrifice than and priest's sacrifice during the mass - less the blood.

[@MeowMeow-jt8mo]

​ @thovenach *Bible does not teach "Roman religion = the Church/Universal Church" or "no salvation outside Roman religion". So where did RCs get all your ns?* you said No Salvation outside the Church - The Catholic Church is the fullness of Truth but God can work however he pleases. He can give salvation freely. Salvation is for everyone. That is why we believe that there can be salvation in other churches not having the fullness of truth especially if they are blinded. Luke 12:46-48- Speaks of those who believe and do the will of God will be in heaven. Those who know and do not believe will go to hell. However those who believe and do not do the will of God will be beaten severely (Purgatory basis). The final one is the key Those who do not know and still do the work of God will only be beaten lightly. We know Hell is eternal and cant be considered a light beating or even a heavy beating. It would surely be imprisonment.

@johnholm6000 *You are not seeking the truth. Or else you would have just read the Scriptures for the truth. Bible says God's Word is truth. Jn **17:17**. 95% Roman Catholic doctrines did not come from Scriptures. So how do you get truth? ANswer me.* *R Catholicism has nothing to do with God and His Words. R Catholic Church contradicts Scriptures in every possible ways!* 1. Catholics say Mary was sinless. But BIBLE says Mary offered a sinner's offering. She was a sinner. Bible says Mary needed a Saviour. Lk 2:23-24, Lev 12:6-8, Rom 3:10. 2. Catholics say clergies must be celibate. Yet BIBLE says Peter (supposed R Church first leader) had mother in law. Bible says celibacy is not a qualification for clergies. Mat 8:14-15, Mar 1:30-31, Luk 4:38-39. 3. Catholics say Mary was forever virgin. Yet BIBLE says Jesus had brothers and sisters. Mary was not perpetually virgin. Mk 6:3, Mat 13:55, Mat 27:56, Mar 6:3, Mar 15:40, Mar 15:47. 4. Catholics say confess to R priests in a box. BIBLE says nothing about confessing to priests in a box. Bible says confess to GOD only. 1 John 1:9, Mat 6, Romans 10:9-10. 5. Catholics say drink of the physical blood of Jesus. Yet OT and NT both say do not drink blood. Acts 15, Lev 7:26. 6. Catholics say pray to passed on Mary and "saints". Yet BIBLE says do not contact the dead. NT Church did not record a single case of NT believers asking passed on saints to pray for them. Deut 18:11, Isaiah 8:19. 7. Catholics make and bow down to statues. BIBLE says do not bow down to graven images (statues). Deut 4, Exo 20:4-5. 8. Catholics sprinkles “holy water”. But NT Church of the Bible mentioned nothing about “holy water”. There was no record of any Apostles sprinkling “holy water” on believers. Catholics claimed “holy water” came from OT. Yet Num 5:17 says “holy water” was water used to test adulterous women in OT temple. Hardly the same. Those were for Old Covenant Jews. Not New Testament Christians. 9. Catholics say Peter was pope - bishop of all bishops. Yet BIBLE says Peter was just a leader of the Jerusalem Church. Bible says nothing of the office of bishop of bishops. Gal 2:9, Mat 16:18. 10. Catholics say there is a seat of Peter. Yet BIBLE says nothing about it. Jesus said “not to lord over others”. 11. Catholics has clergy priesthood. Bible says clergy priesthood was done away with in New Testament. There is no clergy priesthood in NT. Heb 7:27, 9:12, 10:10. 12. Catholics preaches Works Salvation (faith + good works + partake R sacraments + submit to R pontiff + be in R Church + devote to Mary = to be saved). Yet Bible says “believe in Jesus to be saved”. Bible says Works Salvation is cursed. Gal 1:8-9. Acts 16:30-31, John 3:16, Romans 10:9-10. 13. Catholics says they must do Penance to atone for their sins. Yet Bible says repent, confess and sins will be forgiven. Catholic Bible changes the word “repentance” in NT into “penance”. Original Greek NT does not use or mean the word penance. Penance = work to atone for sins. Repentance = change of heart. 1 John 1:9, Mat 6. 14. Catholics say Mary went straight to heaven without dying. Yet Bible says nothing about it. 15. Catholics say Islam and Christianity have the same GOD. Yet Islam doesn't believe in death and resurrection of Jesus and Trinity. you said I try to seek the truth of the gospel of Jesus Christ.

​ @MrProsat *You are still dodging ... Jesus did not offer any “unbloodied sacrifice”. Again you are adding to Scriptures what it does not say. Rev 22:18-19 is for you.*
