Maria-Goretti:
which of the images are you talking about and who exactly is bowing down to them?

naijadeyhia:

This shows you have nothing to offer because even in all our discussion not once have you made a clean and clear reference to scripture. You are just hoping on one leg and trying to scratch your nose at the same time. I do not want to go through the previous dicsussions i want you to make it brief for me by answering me in simple english. Is that too difficult for you?

achi4u: Bia ur questions dosen't hold any water.
In which way do we bow down to any graving images
Without the image of Jesus and some ancient prophets your faith would have been ruin.
When you see the image of Christ hanging on the cross of calvery...what comes to ur mind
The Bulletin ur castigating was an extracts from the holy scripture.

Mind u Catholic helps in preserving what xtians is all about.
There's no way "alone ranger" pastor will confuse to thread his path which is very narrow.

In my own opinion, all xtians are the same in one God but only our church building and aspirations may differ.

have I answered u?

free2ryhme: That is what is wrong with you Catholics, you take what you want, that makes sense to you, because that's what you were taught from those who knew no different themselves, and leave all else, as if it doesn't even exist!!! Well, I'm sorry, but when you accept God, then you accept ALL of God, not just what your church tells you to!!!

Maria-Goretti:
at least, we can hire a tired party to see who have been hoping on one leg and trying to scratch his nose at same time....should we?

achi4u: Well you can put it the way u want it.
I wonder who should be advising Who to accept Christ?
Its all boiled down to what ur fellow man preaches and brainwash you every sunday

Maria-Goretti:

naijadeyhia:

Oh suddenly you dont know the images? Do you not have images of whom or what you think Jesus looks like as statues? Do you not have images of what you think mary looks like as statues? Do you not have images even of what you think baby Jesus looked like? Sacred heart of this and that? I pray you to please tell me that you dont have them

naijadeyhia:


What is christ still looking for on your cross? Is he still there? Is he forever to hang on the cross? His death alone on the cross did not bring you salvation, rather his death and resurrection did. Get updated!

achi4u: Hahahaha without those images your faith will be in danger, I wonder why the Mother church allow you ppl to escape?
mtcheeew!
...and they keep spreading like airborn disease

free2ryhme:



Quote one scripture in the bible that support these claims of yours


...I am waiting

Maria-Goretti:
...hmm, the fact we have the crucifix doesnt mean that we dont beleive he has resurrected... That is a symbol to all showing eaxactly how he suffered and died on the cross...his cruxificion is a symbolic event.

And with other images or graven images as you call it, it is also a symbol.

And nobody is bowing down to it....rather we regard with respect what those symbols stand for.

achi4u: Your guest is as good as mine.
Just repent and come back home.

naijadeyhia:


Oh now the language changes. So what you do not is regard with respect? Is your respectful regard in your mind or an outward show of bowing or kneeling? Are the symbols your ticket to heaven? You leave the living and look for the dead.

achi4u: Well you can put it the way u want it.
I wonder who should be advising Who to accept Christ?

Maria-Goretti:
.. I am correcting you...nobody is bowing down to the images, we venerate what those images stand for...

naijadeyhia:

You name should be Ignorachi because you are so ignorant of the truth and it hurts to think that you assume that you are making sense on this forum

free2ryhme:

venerating by bowing down

naijadeyhia:

When the catholic church wants to deceive you they use a word like Venerate. But allow me to show you the meanings of the word Venerate.

Synonyms for venerate
adore, deify, glorify, revere, reverence, worship

Is there any word there that looks familiar?

Maria-Goretti:
how do you show great respect to someone?

Maria-Goretti:
how do you show great respect to someone?

free2ryhme:


respect to mummies, corpse, skeletons of dead people and graven images


where is that in the bible

no its veneration LWTMB

naijadeyhia:



no its veneration LWTMB

naijadeyhia: In your attempt to Venerate as you put it you are deifying idols, glorifying them and worshiping them. Still think that what you do is Veneration?

Maria-Goretti:
we venerate what those symbols stand for....and not the graven image.
Is that hard to understand?

free2ryhme:



You Catholics truly need to study your scriptures as Jesus commaned!
