Pentecostals Bash Catholics Yet They Celebrate Valentine The Most by Ogashub(m): 8:32pm On Feb 13, 2018 |
A typical Nigerian non Catholic who is drained with his or her own church doctrine will wear red tomorrow and majestically walk into her or his lover's house to wish him happy valentines day. But every other thing about the catholic doctrine is paganized by you and your church folks. Y'all have suddenly forgotten that Valentine is a saint In the catholic world that is usually celebrated every 14th of February, just like other catholic saints. But tomorrow you will come online and tell us how Catholics worship Mary, you get angry when she is being celebrated. But Tomorrow, you will be buying gifts in the name of valentine. All the Pentecostal churches that bash the catholic doctrines and saints are the ones who will even celebrate the valentine the most. But there you are, saying you know so much about Christianity. Now, tell me that saint valentine is a saint in your own church, I am listening, how? 152 Likes 9 Shares |

Ogashub:even in the Catholic church, there are members who still roll with the modern valentine way of celebration, So let's not act like saints. Yes we all know St Valentine "as we were taught" was a saint bla bla bla who was known for his acts of love. Its unfortunate things have turned around but that doesn't mean we shouldn't celebrate love. We spend a lot of our energy criticizing others instead of leading by example. If u feel that Val's day to you means showing love to the poor then do it instead of pointing fingers on those who are living their lives the way they want it. 23 Likes 1 Share |

The catholic church was seen as the universal church at the time saint Valentine lived. There was no Protestants at that time talkless of pentecostals, therefore saint valentine was saint of the universal church, which includes all churches, be it catholic, Protestants or pentecostals 11 Likes |

One thing I am against Pentecostal is the way they attack Catholic on Dogmatic . Forgetting they too are guilty of dogmatic .tithing Val celebration ,birthday Sunday worship n Xmass celebration are dogmatic too . Pentecostal churches even set special service for every month in the year . All these are dogmatic that are not in the bible . In between I am not a Catholic nether am I Pentecostal . I like to be on my own 15 Likes 1 Share |

Ogashub: Valentine's day is all about love. You said pentecostals celebrate Valentine's day the most. Going by your analogy, pentecostals celebrate love more than Catholics. That's why you should think very well before writing online to avoid disgracing yourself. 12 Likes 1 Share |

This is one of the reasons I'm convinced Christianity is false and Holy Spirit is fictional cuz Christians can't agree on anything despite talking to the same holy spirit who is promised that it'll reveal the real truth to them From the very beginning, Christians have split and diverged and disagreed about matters of extreme consequence, and matters that seem (on the face of it) totally trivial. For close to 1,500 years the chief hobby of Christendom seemed to be finding reasons to murder other Christians, and to this day thousands of Christian variations exist, many of which are utterly incompatible and "heretical" to each other's point of view. From Arianism to "Mariolotry", from thefilioque, to anti-trinitarian Oneness Pentecostalism, from hardline Feeneyism to Christian Universalism, from Quietism to televangelists ... any doctrinal standpoint held by one Christian group is guaranteed to be held in contempt by other (ostensibly) fellow Christians. Yet every last one of them bows their knees before the Father, every last one of them believes that Christ dwells in their hearts and that they are strengthened by the power of this Spirit. Every last one of them"knows" that they are correct and everyone else is wrong. They alone are "filled up by the fullness of God." They can "feel it in their hearts". "By their fruits you will know them," wrote the unknown author(s) of the book we call Matthew, and those words are quite right. The fruits of Christianity have always been discord among themselves, dehumanization of others and mutual persecution over whatever passes for heresy at that time and place. "A good tree cannot bear bad fruit" applies wonderfully to Christianity. By that very standard, the tree of Christianity is rotten to the core and more prickly than a cactus. It is evident and obvious that there is no "still, small voice" guiding Christians, that the Bible is wrong when it promises to reveal the truth to believers ... because regardless of one's belief, there are millions upon millions of other Christians who are convinced of that belief's incorrectness, convinced that the Holy Spirit has lit their path to truth (and likely think said "heretics" deserve eternal punishment to boot despite the fact that they are all supplicants to the same Lord). 17 Likes 3 Shares |

Pentecostals are the worst of their kind. They are criminals who feel they are better than anyone else. they feel say them no the Bible. they condemn Catholics yet they practice almost everything that the catholics do. anyone way no favor them, them go use am against the catholics. though, the catholics get some issues but I tell you, if the Pentecostals had the kind of power that catholics have, they would have destroyed this world. Imagine Adeboye publicly demanding 1 billion as if he created job anywhere. all dem day buy private jet and if person talk, instead of them to call these thieves to order them go support them. Obasanjo won buy plane early 2000 na so Nigerians gather a whole president make e no buy plane, but now all the pastors get plane and the same hypocrites support them. open your mouth and condemn the evil you have no covenant with any man but with God. tell a man that he is wrong and God will bless you for it. even if that man is your father. stand with God not man. there is nothing like man of God. We all are children of God. No man is above his mate. draw a man to his sense and you will save him and save yourself. do not support evil or any man. all these prayer warriors who cannot talk in front of their daddies and they will be shouting and stamping their feet before other people. 21 Likes |

Re: Pentecostals Bash Catholics Yet They Celebrate Valentine The Most by Bonaventura(m): 8:25am On Feb 14, 2018 |
The Catholic celebrate a lot of Saints who are believed to have lived good lives while on earth and therefore are in heaven. This is one of the doctrines of the Catholic Church. The protestants however do not believe in the power of men( the Catholic) to declare someone a saint yet they single out Saint Valentine who is a saint like every other Saints in the Catholic faith to celebrate. What an irony! It's not even a feast in the Catholic Church like some other Saints. It's a memorial. 21 Likes 3 Shares |

Thank you Op for this wonderful write up, majority of them are hypocrites. The greatest gift I have ever received from my parent is being a christian and knowing God, and lastly taking me through the step and doors of Catholic church. Nothing and nobody would deviate and convince me to leave or dump Catholic doctrine for other church. I would die in catholic and also teach my kid the doctrines of catholic. Happy Ash Wednesday and happy Saint Valentines to all my Catholic faithfuls. May this celebration marks the beginning of good things in our lives, may our different prayers be answered (Amen) 24 Likes 2 Shares |
