It means that when Jesus was on earth, heaven is empty. Satan would have taken over the control of things, right?
Our God transcends time and Space. Yours may be limited by space, that's why you won't understand us.

The reason why you need to go and make a detailed research in order to know more about the church.
The catholic church does not in any way worship or encourage the worship of anything/anyone other than God Himself through our Lord Jesus Christ who is the Way, the truth and the Live. We call on the saints to intercede for us to God through Christ. So many people out there misunderstand the teaching of the Church because they are Far from the church. The world need more of true christians and not Church goers
i dont need to research all i need is to read my bible...


Tell me where it is written that we must go through men to get to God

I guess you don't have any anwer to my question which I used to answer yours. But talking of bowing, Yorubas and some tribes bow and genuflect even prostrate before. their elders. Seems for you all Yorubas are human worshippers. You guys should just study the bible, not mere reading it.
so bowing is now about tribe abi undecided

Just show us a place where we say that you must go through men to get to Jesus. If you can't find this, then why are you turning yourself to an accuser of the brethren Rev.12:10, why doing the work of the devil.

Reading the comments from my fellow Catholics I've never been this proud of been a Catholic.
A true Catholic is always and forever a Catholic. Anyone who leaves the Catholic Church for whatever reason was never imbided and faithful to the Catholic faith. I've been blessed been a Catholic and I'm proud of seeing other Catholics and how succesful they are. It's no doubt God is blessing us...

John 14New International Version (NIV)

Jesus Comforts His Disciples
14 “Do not let your hearts be troubled. You believe in God[a]; believe also in me. 2 My Father’s house has many rooms; if that were not so, would I have told you that I am going there to prepare a place for you? 3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am. 4 You know the way to the place where I am going.”

Jesus the Way to the Father
5 Thomas said to him, “Lord, we don’t know where you are going, so how can we know the way?”

6 Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. 7 If you really know me, you will know[b] my Father as well. From now on, you do know him and have seen him.”

8 Philip said, “Lord, show us the Father and that will be enough for us.”

9 Jesus answered: “Don’t you know me, Philip, even after I have been among you such a long time? Anyone who has seen me has seen the Father. How can you say, ‘Show us the Father’? 10 Don’t you believe that I am in the Father, and that the Father is in me? The words I say to you I do not speak on my own authority. Rather, it is the Father, living in me, who is doing his work. 11 Believe me when I say that I am in the Father and the Father is in me; or at least believe on the evidence of the works themselves. 12 Very truly I tell you, whoever believes in me will do the works I have been doing, and they will do even greater things than these, because I am going to the Father. 13 And I will do whatever you ask in my name, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son. 14 You may ask me for anything in my name, and I will do it.

Jesus Promises the Holy Spirit
15 “If you love me, keep my commands. 16 And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another advocate to help you and be with you forever— 17 the Spirit of truth. The world cannot accept him, because it neither sees him nor knows him. But you know him, for he lives with you and will be[c] in you. 18 I will not leave you as orphans; I will come to you. 19 Before long, the world will not see me anymore, but you will see me. Because I live, you also will live. 20 On that day you will realize that I am in my Father, and you are in me, and I am in you. 21 Whoever has my commands and keeps them is the one who loves me. The one who loves me will be loved by my Father, and I too will love them and show myself to them.”

22 Then Judas (not Judas Iscariot) said, “But, Lord, why do you intend to show yourself to us and not to the world?”

23 Jesus replied, “Anyone who loves me will obey my teaching. My Father will love them, and we will come to them and make our home with them. 24 Anyone who does not love me will not obey my teaching. These words you hear are not my own; they belong to the Father who sent me.

25 “All this I have spoken while still with you. 26 But the Advocate, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you all things and will remind you of everything I have said to you. 27 Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.

28 “You heard me say, ‘I am going away and I am coming back to you.’ If you loved me, you would be glad that I am going to the Father, for the Father is greater than I. 29 I have told you now before it happens, so that when it does happen you will believe. 30 I will not say much more to you, for the prince of this world is coming. He has no hold over me, 31 but he comes so that the world may learn that I love the Father and do exactly what my Father has commanded me.

“Come now; let us leave.

Keep running away from the truth. Let me make it biblical, though all I said earlier was. Isaiah 60:14 will help you if you are helpable. Quoting inter alia: The sons of those who oppressed you will come and bow low to show their respect. It even goes further: All who once despised you will worship at your feet. Let me stop here. Catholic has the bible and knows practical and literal meaning of every word, phrase, clause and sentence therein. Go study your bible and then you can come back.

cyrilamx:
You sound no different from d pharisees who were incensed at Christ for sharing to tell a paralysed man his sins re forgiven. Lk. 5:20-24. Again what do u think of St John's Gospel 20:23 when Christ passed on the power to forgive sins to his apostles and by extension to their successors? Or have u be brainwashed into believing that the power to forgive sins ended with the apostles? Surely it will also be logical to attest that the command to preach the Gospel also ended with the apostles cum first century Christians. My dear the Bible is to help to instruct and never the sole rule of Christian faith as St. Paul taught in 2.Thes2:15. Go and read the Didach- writings about how the early Christians observed worship, heard auricular confession and the rests prior the canonicity of the Bible in late 4th century. I will advise u to stick to nairabet where u can showcase ur gift of "guess" work not dabble into theology where u have little or no knowledge.
Mr theologian Weldone sir. Im not sure how much of theology is required for salvation though. But the Bible is clear.

Every man has access to God to receive forgiveness directly through Jesus. If you think you are not worthy of such direct access then no one will force you. Go through your priest and Pope.

As for me the Bible says I belong to a Royal priesthood and Christ is the High Priest.

A sinful man in the flesh that cannot forgive himself who is also a sinner is forgiving someone else. Now who is playing nairabet with his salvation between me and you.

Both you and your reverend father are sinners who need to ask God for forgiveness for sins known and unknown. Keep confessing to your reverend father.

Bro, there are many Catholic teachings that are not rooted in the word if God. Thank God for the Charismatic Renewal Movement in the Church that made me to read and understand my Bible.
