  • Catholics: Here is a very clear twisting of Scriptures just to fit in your belief.?

    Catholic claimed: That Apostle Peter was the first pope of Roman Catholics.

    Fact:1. we can't find anything in the Holy Words of God that Apostle Peter did went to Rome. I agree Apostle Paul was mentioned that he went to Rome. Prove it by copying and pasting verses that will justify your claim and beliefs (enjoy copy and pasting) make sure King James Version.

    Besides, what did Christ said to Peter? Mat 16:17 And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Barjona: for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father which is in heaven. Mat 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. Do you agree with me that

    Christ Jesus is not pointing to Peter, He is pointing to Himself.....see verses that proves my point.

    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.

    Catholics did you see verse 4? Christ Jesus is pointing to Himself.

    Conclusion: Therefore Who is the Rock? Do you agree with me that Christ Jesus is the Rock and not Peter???

  • Catholics: do you believed the Holy Words of God? If you say yes then why not scrutinized your false doctrines?

    Joh 6:28 Then said they unto him, What shall we do, that we might work the works of God?

    Joh 6:29 Jesus answered and said unto them, This is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he hath sent.

    Examined yourselves do you really believed God's Holy Words or the words of your leaders? your catechism? I know for a fact that Catholic believed that their leaders is vicar for Christ but what verse in the Holy Words of God that can truly justify such claim and belief? if Catholic can show me the verse that could support such claim then every question i asks or answers i submit you can delete all for your own pleasure and rejoice because you have proven your pope is vicar(Vicar

    VIC'AR, n. [L. vicarius, from vicis, a turn, or its root.]

    1. In a general sense, a person deputed or authorized to perform the functions of another; a substitute in office. The pope pretends to be vicar of Jesus Christ on earth. He has under him a grand vicar, who is a cardinal, and whose jurisdiction extends over all priests, regular and secular.)

    As Christ Jesus said; Mat 23:13 But woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye shut up the kingdom of heaven against men: for ye neither go in yourselves, neither suffer ye them that are entering to go in.

    Joh 5:38 And ye have not his word abiding in you: for whom he hath sent, him ye believe not.

    Joh 5:39 Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me.

    Joh 5:40 And ye will not come to me, that ye might have life.

    Mat 13:43 Then shall the righteous shine forth as the sun in the kingdom of their Father. Who hath ears to hear, let him hear.

    Act 4:8 Then Peter, filled with the Holy Ghost, said unto them, Ye rulers of the people, and elders of Israel,

    Act 4:9 If we this day be examined of the good deed done to the impotent man, by what means he is made whole;

    Act 4:10 Be it known unto you all, and to all the people of Israel, that by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom ye crucified, whom God raised from the dead, even by him doth this man stand here before you whole.

    Act 4:11 This is the stone which was set at nought of you builders, which is become the head of the corner.

    Act 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.

    Besides, if Catholic claimed Apostle Peter as their first pope then why Apostle Peter said; Act 5:29 Then Peter and the other apostles answered and said, We ought to obey God rather than men.

    1Pe 1:13 Wherefore gird up the loins of your mind, be sober, and hope to the end for the grace that is to be brought unto you at the revelation of Jesus Christ;

    1Pe 1:14 As obedient children, not fashioning yourselves according to the former lusts in your ignorance:

    1Pe 1:15 But as he which hath called you is holy, so be ye holy in all manner of conversation;

    1Pe 1:16 Because it is written, Be ye holy; for I am holy.

    1Pe 1:17 And if ye call on the Father, who without respect of persons judgeth according to every man's work, pass the time of your sojourning here in fear:

    1Pe 1:18 Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain conversation received by tradition from your fathers;

    1Pe 1:19 But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot:

    1Pe 1:20 Who verily was foreordained before the foundation of the world, but was manifest in these last times for you,

    1Pe 1:21 Who by him do believe in God, that raised him up from the dead, and gave him glory; that your faith and hope might be in God.

    1Pe 1:22 Seeing ye have purified your souls in obeying the truth through the Spirit unto unfeigned love of the brethren, see that ye love one another with a pure heart fervently:

    1Pe 1:23 Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever.

    1Pe 1:24 For all flesh is as grass, and all the glory of man as the flower of grass. The grass withereth, and the flower thereof falleth away:

    1Pe 1:25 But the word of the Lord endureth for ever. And this is the word which by the gospel is preached unto you.

  • Catholics: when is the last time you recite the rosary?

    do you really believed it helps you to pleased God and be saved?

    Joh 8:31 Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed;

    Joh 8:32 And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.

    Joh 8:36 If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed.

    Does these verses contradicts your habit of reciting the rosary? if not then why verse 32 & 36?

    And verse 31 says...if you continue in my words you are my disciple (student) for sure.. as Christ Jesus said.

    how could a catholic member be Christ Jesus student if they're not been taught to read God's Holy Words but were taught catechism?

  • Catholics: do you know if you're saved by doing all kinds of rituals as part of your worship?

    Do you believed that a person must be saved (reconciled to God Most High) before they run out of breathe?

    Ecc. 9:4.

    Heb 9:27 And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment:

    Heb 9:28 So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation.

  • Catholics: what really would you gain in decorating your worship place with different kinds of graven images?

    does it helps you to remember God's Holy Words?

    Deu 7:25 The graven images of their gods shall ye burn with fire: thou shalt not desire the silver or gold that is on them, nor take it unto thee, lest thou be snared therein: for it is an abomination to the LORD thy God.

    Deu 7:5 But thus shall ye deal with them; ye shall destroy their altars, and break down their images, and cut down their groves, and burn their graven images with fire.

    Exo 20:4 Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth:

    Exo 20:5 Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the LORD thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me;

    Deu 4:16 Lest ye corrupt yourselves, and make you a graven image, the similitude of any figure, the likeness of male or female,

    Deu 27:15 Cursed be the man that maketh any graven or molten image, an abomination unto the LORD, the work of the hands of the craftsman, and putteth it in a secret place. And all the people shall answer and say, Amen.

  • Is praying the rosary an abomination to God Most High, Lord Jesus Christ?

    Mat 6:7 But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do: for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking.

  • Believers in Christ Jesus: how do you show your gratitude to God?

    Lord Jesus Christ said;

    John 15

    3 Now ye are clean through the word which I have spoken unto you.

    4 Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me.

    6 If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are burned.

    7 If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you.

  • RCatholics: what sin then that could sent someone to the Hell of Fire?

    Assuming the doctrines you follow in order to be saved is true and right in your eyes,

    Proverbs 16

    25 There is a way that seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death.

    Matthew 7

    13 Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat:

    14 Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.

    15 Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.

    Do you know if you've been saved already from the wrath of God? If so, what's your justification to your claimed?

  • RCatholics: How about Sacrament # 1 Baptism?

    I . Baptism. A sacrament which takes away original sin, and makes us Christians, sons of God and the Church. It takes away all voluntary sin committed before receiving it. It remits all punishments merited for sin. It is impossible to be saved without being baptized.

    What you mean impossible to be saved without water baptism. I assumed this sacraments is all about water baptism.

    Matthew 3:11

    I INDEED BAPTIZE you with water unto repentance: but he that cometh after me is mightier than I, whose shoes I am not worthy to bear: he shall BAPTIZE you with the Holy Ghost, and with fire. Therefore, there are others type of baptism, but i guess you mean purely water baptism.

    Where can you find in the Holy Words of God baptizing infants and babies? And the way you baptized them, where can find it in God's Holy Words. signing a cross in the forehead, waht particular Gospel book or epistles? Please show us to justify your tradition.

  • RCatholics: How about Sacrament # 2 Confirmation?

    II. Confirmation. A sacrament which infuses in us the Holy Spirit, with all the gifts, and makes us perfect Christians.

    Do you mean, a man like us can confirmed someone to be filled with the Holy Spirit?

    It seems you're trying to say that Lord Jesus Christ can't do what he promised His disciples and followers (born again Christians) when He said; John 14

    16 And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever

    so it seems you're trying to help God in giving His Holy Spirit, can you do that?

    Romans 9

    15 For he saith to Moses, I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I will have compassion.

    16 So then it is not of him that willeth, nor of him that runneth, but of God that sheweth mercy.

    So see for yourself your traditions? does it make sense that we could say it's biblical? Or little more than a man-made doctrines? What can you say?

  • RCatholics: Sacrament # 6 Orders? Is this in the Holy Words of God?

    VI. Orders. A sacrament which gives power to exercise ecclesiastical ministry, and the grace to perform it holily. These orders confer upon the priests two powers: one over the natural body of Jesus Christ and the other over his mystical body, which is the Church.

    this seems in conflict with these verses:

    Ephesians 5:23

    For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the CHURCH: and he is the saviour of the body.

    Ephesians 5:24

    Therefore as the CHURCH is subject unto Christ, so let the wives be to their own husbands in every thing.
