cgift:

Pilgrim, they'he has set a bait for you, you are falling for it.

Lol, cgift. . . why you dey panic? grin  They who suppose that they set a bait for pilgrim.1 are the very ones who have fallen into it.

What he does not realize is that he's led himself into this unfortunate adventure in order to draw me out to exchange words with him. Where he did not achieve that, he becomes more vitriolic - thus showing you what Catholics actually are in their true colour. grin  I only wanted him to exhaust himself and make the case so well established for his brethren to come back and read. This is how exactly a "Catholic born-again" behaves. grin

Na because the fool get so much beef with catholics, she no know wetin she go de talk again if she no mention the word catholic for every sentence she vomit from hin mouth.

This is how exactly a "Catholic born-again" behaves.

Cgift, to further butress my point, you see her senility in humilating and ridiculing other catholics? Wetin the other catholics do am. Na me de yab am, but she de dodge, come de insult them again and you want make i de look am de go.

Lol. . . you haven't said anything to "tackle" - and where you needed one, I've dealt and done with it. grin I knew you just couldn't resist signing in later under a different username to reveal yourself. But no worries, trying ever so hard to make this a war of words isn't going to bring me down to your state of mind.

I cautioned much earlier that the greatest mistake you would ever make on Nairaland is to address pilgrim.1 the way you started initially - and I knew already before you came back as "orobo 50cl" that you'd still keep making that mistake; only this time around your strategy isn't that good enough to draw me out into exchanging words with you. What you don't realize is that I was actually waiting for you. . . because I knew you were not done. grin  And as predictable as you could get, you came back. . not to reason, but to prove your true colours as a "Catholic".

Bros, take it to the next level and use more seething vitriol. . .lol. I just can't believe you'd be so predictable - and that's simply what I wanted you to do: show us the true spirit of Catholicism - and you're doing quite well on the display.

Cheers - and do have a good adventure using all your powers trying to draw me into an exchange. . . it has never worked, and it will not. grin

Re: Do Catholics Believe in Being Born Again? by lawyer(m): 1:35am On Sep 14, 2007
Pilgrim, what's this. I thought we were cool and i left this religion boards for a while and dropping in back, your still making references to me saying i signed under a different name to come back and  insult you. I guess you don't let sleeping dogs lie and you will love to exchange unpleasant banters. Even when we had our disagreements, did i ever insult you directly the way this orobo guy is taking cheap shots at you? Anyway i wont let you pull me back to engage in tirades with you. I'll gently leave this religious boards for you or better still sign off from nairaland, because i guess anybody that says something nasty to you from now one is lawyer in disguise. Have it your way and continue to make condescending remarks about me. Am done trying to be at peace with you. Watever Men angry Am out of these religious boards for good.

P:S: For your information, i am not yoruba and i don't speak nor understand the language. So get your facts right if you intend to dump your frustrations on me in future .

MATHEW 12: 34-37.
34 O generation of vipers, how can ye, being evil, speak good things? for out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh.
35 A good man out of the good treasure of the heart bringeth forth good things: and an evil man out of the evil treasure bringeth forth evil things.

36 But I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment.

37 For by thy words thou shalt be[b] justified[/b]

Re: Do Catholics Believe in Being Born Again? by kc08: 2:28pm On Jan 30, 2008
Where in the Bible do you read that one has to believe in "Being Born Again"?
Re: Do Catholics Believe in Being Born Again? by kc08: 3:11pm On Jan 30, 2008
I have read thru just a few pages of this thread and I see the level of anger and ignorance that many of you have about the Catholic Church in her teachings; baptism, justification - salvation, baptism, Mary and all of that. I would suggest you do some readings of the Church (Vatican) council documents (and do not rave about that cos you are already reading the document from the first Church (Jerusalem) council as in Acts 15). Humble yourselvs in the same spirit of God and read those documents. Be informed before you are guided by your biases.

For those of you who have issues with infant baptism. I hope and presume you'al know the value of baptism and your children-if u have one. I also trust you treasure each in its rights. I sure know u treasure your babies when they arrive on ur lapse. If not I guess you may have to let them grow up to make up their minds to eat, recieve education or be clothed.

Where did you all get this idea? or did you read from the bible about faith alone doctrine? can someone show me? James does not talk about it neither does Paul in the context we all scream about today. Why not wait until wherever you are worshiping clocks a 100 yrs and u will see. (I pray God gives you' al the grace of long life to see and remember this).

Let us not forget we are talking about 2000yrs of experiencing the divine nature of God mingling with or better said redeeming humanity; Salvation. If the Spirit of God was not in the Catholic Church leading and guiding her through the challenges both within and outside the Church in the dark ages of human/world history, would we have had the chance today? Remember the experience of the people of Israel in the OT. Their experience of God grew and deepened with time. Think of ur first grade maths class and and what you meet in ur waec/gre (if that is what is applicable).

Read! be informed! do nt cry foul for what u do not take time to reflect on cheesy cheesy cheesy cheesy cheesy wink wink wink wink wink
Re: Do Catholics Believe in Being Born Again? by ajulijuli(m): 5:07pm On Jan 30, 2008
Hi, once u ar baptized in d catholic ch u ar born again. The penticostal knowledge abt born again can b summerized as 'change of heart' wic is totalli diff 4m born again. When u ar baptized u become cleansed, and a child of God and of d chuch' Any bodi can ve a change of hat from bad to good or good to bad- is that born again or born against!
born again is wen u receive d spirit of God tru water
Re: Do Catholics Believe in Being Born Again? by Nobody: 8:32pm On Jan 30, 2008
This is to help reduce the bickering, catholic-bashing, and name-calling that is prevalent among christians.

We need to look at the 'Joint Declaration on Justification' signed by the Catholics and Lutherans in 1999; and later adopted by the Methodists.

You can click here -> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joint_Declaration_on_the_Doctrine_of_Justification

Remember that the Lutherans are disciples of Martin Luther.
The Methodists arose from another epoch.

They are both beginning to see the light dimly.

Happy reading / meditation.

yes, Catholics believe in being born again. for crying out loud please, we catholics are christians. We believe in everything that is in the bible and being born again is part of it.
Re: Do Catholics Believe in Being Born Again? by clefstone(m): 8:13pm On Jul 17, 2009
Born again. This is a phrase that has been misused especially among the pentecostal brethren. You would recall that the disciples of christ neva called themselves born again or even christians. Christ explained that being born again is to be born with water and the holy spirit. In the catholic church, baptism, including infant baptism, makes one born again. It is God's given grace that like the apostles, we catholics glorify God for bestowing on us rather than think that it is tru our own powers. Lets leave our actions to speak rather boost about being born again and surely someone would one day notice and say, 'that fellow is a born again'. As for controversy, the Catholic church has existed for 2 millenium so you would expect such controversies. However, some of there so called controversial issues are easily clarified once one read about them from unbiased literatures
