Apination: Is Hebrews old testament?  In all thy getting ...get understanding Where you quote in Hebrew was explaining how sacrifices were done in old testament before Jesus laid down his life to justify his priesthood From verse 5 of heb 5 5 In the same way, Christ did not take on himself the glory of becoming a high priest. But God said to him, “You are my Son; today I have become your Father.”[a] 6 And he says in another place, “ You are a priest forever, in the order of Melchizedek.” The sacrifice on the cross was done once and for all Heb 10:1,5-10 The law is only a shadow of the good things that are coming--not the realities themselves. For this reason it can never, by the same sacrifices repeated endlessly year after year, make perfect those who draw near to worshipIt is impossible for the blood of bulls and goats to take away sins. 5Therefore, when Christ came into the world, he said: “Sacrifice and offering you did not desire, but a body you prepared for me; 6with burnt offerings and sin offerings you were not pleased. 7Then I said, ‘Here I am—it is written about me in the scroll— I have come to do your will, my God.’ ” a 8First he said, “Sacrifices and offerings, burnt offerings and sin offerings you did not desire, nor were you pleased with them”—though they were offered in accordance with the law. 9Then he said, “Here I am, I have come to do your will.” He sets aside the first to establish the second. 10 And by that will, we have been made holy through the sacrifice of the body of Jesus Christ once for all |

Kei144: Incidentally, the best mathematics students in any secondary school go into engineering. It is often better for someone who was the best mathematics student during his/her secondary school days, and who now has reasonable knowledge of advanced mathematics, to teach children how s/he learnt mathematics during his/her time in secondary. Education mathematics graduates are not the best hands in mathematics.Following education theory learnt in school does not compare with initiatives of a very high IQ person. Teaching is a profession and it must be treated as one. As an engineer and someone that once had an opportunity to teach. Mastering a subject is one thing and ability to impart others is another. Engineers are not trained in lesson notes, teaching aids etc |

Apination: Leviticus 1-7, Hebrews 5:1, 8:3 etc. Go and read your Bible and stop asking stupid questions 
LOL...... Who told you it's not a sacrifice? Jesus at the passover with his disciples offered himself as a living sacrifice when he gave his body and blood to be eaten just as the children of Israel did in Egypt whereby the angel of death could not touch them, thereby through that very action put an end to death through his death on the cross, thereby sharing in his life through his resurrection by "Communion" with him. you are quoting old testament. You lack depth. Jesus is the Sacrifice, partaking in the communion is remembering the sacrifice and its importance. 1Cor 11:26 This is my body, which is for you; do this in remembrance of me.” 25 In the same way, after supper he took the cup, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in my blood; do this, whenever you drink it, in remembrance of me.” 26 For whenever you eat this bread and drink this cup, you proclaim the Lord’s death until he comes. |

I know all this... you re right but you are actually missing context of christ purpose at the last supper lol The purpose of last Supper is to remember His Sacrifice.

And no one is mandating anyone really. You mustn't ask Mary or a Saint to pray for you when you're praying. Just like no one is forcing you to tell your people to remember you in their prayers. Which is unfounded |

flex04: While they were eating, Jesus took bread, said the blessing, broke it, and giving it to his disciples said, "Take and eat; this is my body." Then he took a cup, gave thanks, and gave it to them, saying, "Drink from it, all of you, for this is my blood of the covenant, which will be shed on behalf of many for the forgiveness of sins." (Mt 26:26-28; cf. Mk 14:22-24, Lk 22:17-20, 1 Cor 11:23-25)
Mind you we all know he had to use a representation but in the context of Christ he was professing something extra-ordinary... Perhaps Paul had you in mind when he wrote this in 1Cor 11 20 When you come together, it is not the Lord's Supper you eat, 21 for as you eat, each of you goes ahead without waiting for anybody else. One remains hungry, another gets drunk. 22 Don't you have homes to eat and drink in? Or do you despise the church of God and humiliate those who have nothing? What shall I say to you? Shall I praise you for this? Certainly not! 23 For I received from the Lord what I also passed on to you: The Lord Jesus, on the night he was betrayed, took bread, 24 and when he had given thanks, he broke it and said, "This is my body, which is for you; do this in remembrance of me." 25 In the same way, after supper he took the cup, saying, "This cup is the new covenant in my blood; do this, whenever you drink it, in remembrance of me." 26 For whenever you eat this bread and drink this cup, you proclaim the Lord's death until he comes. 27 Therefore, whoever eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner will be guilty of sinning against the body and blood of the Lord. 28 A man ought to examine himself before he eats of the bread and drinks of the cup. 29 For anyone who eats and drinks without recognizing the body of the Lord eats and drinks judgment on himself. |

maum: About Holy Mary pray for us, again have you ever asked a friend to remember you in prayers? So someone who birthed The Lord is not fit to?
About bowing to images? The best way I can think of it is humanity, respect and attitude towards 'symbol of authority'
Why do you stand at attention when singing the national anthem? Why do you beat your chest when vowing in the National pledge (that's an vow if you all don't know), why are some Europeans made to bow in the presence of their kings and kiss their rings? Why are people made to stand if an import at person e tees the room and do not sit till the person does? Do you know that's respect bothering on worship? Why are children thought in school to bow and genuflect n greeting in the presence of authority or a sign of respect?
Now, why do some people don't. Simple, because they either don't believe that's a display of respect or they don't believe the person, or country the action is channeled towards is not deserving of it.
The human mind is powerful and spiritual. It processes these things. And how you consider a person to be an influence in your life, how you revere that person will determine the level of 'respect', you accord him/her. Every thing you know that connotes reverence, you'll do.
To the person watching you, you'll be seen to be worshipping the person, but in your mind, you're a coring respect to whom you think it's due.
Issueof images: why do you connect more to certain people ans/or places if you're watching videos, pictures of them which remind you of things you did together or your memories of the place? Why do you even take pictures?
If you think of these things as a human being and not on the lines of religion, I believe they make more sense.
No Catholic Church will ever demand its parishioners to worship images. I know a Rev. Fr. that always cautions people because truth is some people may drift and that there is because they're seeing it from religious angle and not due to the connection. Why Mary? You can as well involve Joseph, Abraham, Moses, Elijah even John the Baptist. We should be careful on how we use human understanding in fabricating and introducing some doctrines that are not scripturally founded into our denominations. Jesus never commanded us to reach him via any priest, not even Mary. Peter and Paul never did as well. Its a shame that the use of human wisdom has watered down the biblical standard in how we choose to worship God today. |

maum: Truth though is that in the early years of the Pentecostal faith, at least in Nigeria that I know of, Pentecostal churches didn't practice communion, nor to talk of Holy Communion. I remember how Catholics in my class were taunted as a child by Pentecostals many years ago about communion. You can ask your Pastor when it commenced in your chrcu, there's nothing wrong with knowing these facts about your church. After all aren't we all Christians, as we say?
Another is about written short prayers. I know how mụ h Pentecostals mocked Catholics for reading out short prayers, say how can it be a prayer from your heart if you're just reading literature written by someone else? Over the past 10, 15 years or so, we've now seen Pentecostal devotionals include short prayed too. At first they called them different names, like reflection or something else, now it's written 'Prayer' clearly.
Again, how Pentecostals mock Catholics for asking the Saints to pary for them. But several Pentecostal pastors believe in Saints and quite some of them in their preachings. And we all know the Bible supports asking our neighbours to pray for us, so the Catholic angle is if intercessions from us mere people still struggling for grace will help, how much more people who are believed to have reached the ultimate destination?
Why do Pentecostals celebrate Good Friday, Easter and other not-fixed days the days Catholics do? Do you know how those dates are arrived at? It's counting my friends. In a couple of weeks, we'll enter the Advent season (also marking the beginning of a new church year), count a few days from Advent, we'll enter ordinary time of the year, a stipulated number of weeks after that, we enter Lent, 40 days after that we celebrate Easter, I think 6 weeks after that is Pentecost, then a few weeks after we enter ordinary time of the year and count a marked number of days again. And the cycle continues.
Every denomination has their grey areas, I was born a Catholic but still trying to understand a few of the doctrines. But truth is that most of what Pentecostals churches criticize the Catholic church about, they are beginning to practice and coating them so that it's not so obvious they are.
This isn't bad, there is only one church. That is the goal.
na me write this epistle? Most of the things you wrote here are based on an encounter with someone attending a Pentecostal Church not a Pentacostal doctrine. The major issue Pentacostal have with Catholic were not even pointed out in your write up. E.g The issue of "holy Mary pray for us" and "bowing to Jesus statue " |

flex04: I an not defending any body but research befr arguing... On the last supper the Lord had to commemorate this death (a sacrifice he has been parabling in his sermons) few hour hours before his execution You are lacking depth Communion literally means "sharing." It's breaking bread together. The word "communion" comes from King James Bible translation of the Greek word for. "sharing" which Paul used in describing the taking of bread and wine as the body and blood of Christ. |

ediko5: A popular Delta state based native doctor "Chi Marine Temple" visited an orphanage home owned by the Anglican Church and donated gift items.
His donated has sparked controversies, some Christians suspect that he may destroy the destiny of the kids and hence the church owned orphanage home shouldn't collect the gift items. Meanwhile other Christians have blamed some pastors and church leaders of not living up to their responsibilities and urged them to emulate the herbalist.
What is your take on this? A gift from a strange people like that is dangerous. Even if its not a Church orphanage, a native doctor might have ulterior motive with that gifts |
