Q. Why do Catholic Priests not marry?
Ans. Catholic priests represent Christ. Christ did not marry, he was a virgin and he praised virginity (Read mathew 19:11-12). St paul did not marry, and advised others who wanted to serve God perfectly not to marry also. (Read 1 Cor. 7 vs 8, 25-28, 32-33). St John did not marry, and praises virginity (Rev. 14: 3-5).

In 385 Pope Siricius made a law forbiding priests to marry and in 1074 Pope Gregory VII confirmed and enforced it more strongly.

Q. Is it bad to drink alcoholic drinks?
Ans. Do not drink too much. "Be not drunk with wine" (Ephesians v. 18) (1Tim. V. 23)..."use a little wine for thy stomach's sake" Our Lord Himself drank wine, for the pharisees called him "a wine drinker" (matt. Chapter 11 vs 19)

Q. Can you find use of images in the Bible?
Ans. Read the following:
Exodus 25:17-21
Exodus 27:20
Number 21:8-9
2 Samuel 6:1-3
Colosian 1:20
John 12:35
Leviticus 24:1-4
1 Chronicles 13:1-14

Q. Why do Catholics honour Mary?
Ans. catholics honour Mary because God himself honoured her by asking and selecting her among the millions of woment to be the mother of Jesus Christ who is God. If a friend loves you and hates your mother will you like it? Definitely you won't like it and nobody will like it.

OnowuNdiigbo:

what do u mean bro?
what i meant is no one is a perfect teacher only christ can teach
the moment you start to carry ur bible, other materials about God and read them, then you will see the great error church father has done and this can lead one to destruction
seek u shall find
knock it shall be open to you
remember the word shall judge why everybody following epistle n scripture for destruction?
Carry ur bible if u r sincere God will lead u to the truth.
