I simply have one question for you all 'non-catholic christians':

What is the origin of your own church?'

Why is it so convenient for you guys to try and blast the catholic church without you balancing the equation with that from whatever church you are a member of?

Plz, before any other thing, state the origin/history of your church.

Is it the one that started at my lecture class in the university or what? undecided Look at every street, churches springing up everywhere, each with its own doctrine. So, meaning not Christians b4 the 'new generational' churches? Or what?

Plz, when u devote ur time and research/paste your grievances on the catholic church, also do well to tell us about your 'church', its beliefs and all.

I really want to understand the aim behind your thread.

Apart from the Catholic Church every other church started almost the same way. They are all Protestants, king Henry wanted to divorce his first wife for a much hunger one but the then pope refused to anull their marriage because it's against the laws of the Catholic Church so Henry pulled out from the Catholic Church and formed the Anglican Church. To if a British prince is catholic or even marries a catholic he can not be the king.

Almost every other church since then were started much the same way. Somebody will have friction in his church and pull out to forme his own church, the likes of Lords Chosen comes to mind, or someone wakes up one morning and claims God called him to minister and all it takes is one year bible school and he becomes a pastor. Some will claim to have died and gone to heaven only to be sent back by Jesus to come and become a pastor.

I stopped believing all these bullsht many years ago.

Exactly, my point.

Someone would just wake up one morning and paste any rubbish about the Catholic church. . . I just wonder what is the aim? Are they so vexed? Always protesting?

At least, the person should be able to tell me how his own church is the 'real' deal in terms of the 'points' he quoted. angry

For example, this thread that this OP started, he should tell me his own church also, its history and WHY his church...


Yes! Everyone one knows that church alone would not save you. So I'm not saying that Catholics would be saved simply because we are catholics. But, I can't just be dragged into an argument without an aim. At least, let's assume the protestants wants me to have a change of view, they should be able to lead me to that new view na abi? Not just looking for cheap ways to try ridicule the catholic church...

As for me, I love the Catholic Church. A catholic I would remain forever!

You are right. All these Pentecostal Christians enjoy criticizing the Catholic Church. I don't why though. I see all Christians from the same lens, none is better than the other. But at least the Catholic Church is the first church, has a lot of history and has the most adherents. Maybe that's why they hate it.

Na jealousy de worry dem.Most pentecosal churches are particulary envious of our huge membership as there are mainly after pecuniary motives.Unfortunately for then Jesus has already declared " The gates of hell shall Never prevail against his church".

As in the thing dey tire me. Even if they must criticize, okay, end the argument with your own stance. Mba! They would just drop rubbish copied from one unaccountable source... No conclusion... No aim!

See this thread now, he is indirectly trying to saying 'the catholic church is false based on its history'... But he can't even state his church and his church's history / beliefs/ origin/ tradition.... So .... I don't understand

There are many virgin birth stories before Christ, by your write-up above, should we conclude that Christianity copied the story surrounding the birth of our savior Jesus Christ from the previous virgin births.

I have learnt how not to take these guys serious. They seem to practice their faith by trying to disprove the teachings oof the Catholic church...meanwhile they stand for nothing or can't express or show what their faith involves. .

Just keep PROTESTING!!! undecided

They are always more about what the catholic church does thaat they think shouldn't be done.. Finish! Just protestants!

Just as God created for six days then rested on the seventh, man is to work for six days and rest on the seventh—to cease working. Those who trust in Christ's finished work on the cross have ceased trying to be justified through their own efforts and instead find their rest in Him. (See Heb. 4:3,10).

The Bible states that no one can be justified by keeping the Sabbath holy, or by keeping any other Commandment. All the 10 commandment does is bring the knowledge of sin to show us that we need a Saviour. Jesus fulfilled the demands of the Law, which means we can be justified with God through faith in Jesus alone.

"For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast" (Ephesians 2:8-9)
