You do know why the reformation began right?! The inquisition which I'm sure you've heard about was carried out by the Catholic church to rid spain of jews and "witches". The roman Catholic church withheld Bibles prior to the reformation, that's why Matin Luther had to translate the Bible from latin to german during his lifetime to make it more available to the populace.
Please lets not even go to the wealth gap between the popes of those days like George and the people and their purported links to even the mafioso.

lolz... Its funny how you guys accuse the catholics yet neglecting your own loopholes...
Talking about the wealth of the pope... You guys have forgotten that the pope is a title giving to a man in that office... Hence is has no claim to the wealth of the papal office. Even if that office is the richest on earth, it belongs to an institution and not to the one man called " pope"..... Can same be said of all these pastors flying around in private jets.

eh i didnt answer you? sorry er pele. Can you ask it again?

Ok, one of the teachings of the catholic institution is that there is no salvation outside it. True or false?

It says Mary is a co saviour.True or false?

Pls read the bible verses i cited again and tell, if they are talking of a saviour or THE saviour.

I want you to tell me which is the first church.... What happened to the church during the medieval ages.... Where is the church now...?

Also, why is it that churches founded by the apostles outside the holy land are in communion with catholic even though they differ in some way...eg is the church of Ethiopia.... Let me stop here for now.

First question is false.... The way you interpreted it is not what the church meant.

Second question is false.... The church only point out the role of Mary in Christ's mission on earth and never said she is a co saviour.

There is no truth in the catholic institution. The lie that it is the first church is what they use to keep their members bound in delusion.

Wake up, Jesus said he is the way, the truth and the life, no one can go to the Father but by him John 14: 6

The scriptures says expressly that there is no name giving under heaven by which men can be saved except the name of Jesus. Acts 4:12

You don't need the priest or clergy man to interpret that for you. It is as clear as night and day.

Only Jesus can save. Look to Him alone and be saved.

Plz point t to me the one catholic doctrine that says Jesus cannot save....
Remember, I asked you some question in one thread like that, you didn't answer me, even when I quoted your name on it.

An2elect2:
catholics are not Christians, they are catholics.

They do not represent Christ or uphold the teachings of the scriptures they claim to have preserved.

It is heresy for the catholic cult to call itself the first church. And to say it has sole authority to what Christians should know ( which is the truth) is mind boggling and outrightly arrogant. What blasphemy! The catholic cult is a big joke.



I was a catholic. And i thank God for that.

Yawns.... We've heard that times without number... But it still won't change the truth glaring at your face...

EASTER SPIRITUAL BOUQUET: Acts 4:23-31, Jn 3.1-8. Today's Gospel presents us with the intimate dialogue that took place at night between Jesus and Nicodemus. Having been moved by Jesus' preaching and miracles, Nicodemus feels the need to know more about Him. He shows great respect towards Jesus and called Him "Rabbi". This title reveals the lack of his knowledge of Jesus. Nicodemus represents the beginners in the journey of faith. In the process of the maturation of faith, Nicodemus has to learn many things when he could not understand what Jesus means by having a rebirth. The first instruction given by Jesus is, "no one can see the Kingdom of God without being born from above" (Jn 3:3). To be "born from above" refers to this spiritual rebirth brought forth by a decisive change in life. The point that Nicodemus needed to learn is that those born of the spirit are equipped with a new source of life, a share in the very life of God. Through the Spirit, they have a new relationship with God. They know Him as a loving Father and are equipped with a new heart that is filled with the desires of God. They willingly turn their faces into the wind of the Spirit and allow that wind blow away everything in them that is not of Him so that they can bear witness to God. Hence, let us not lament that we have only one life, but rejoice that we can always remain young by making the best use of the opportunities of that rebirth that the Lord offer us. May the Lord grant us the grace to live in a new way every day of our lives! Amen!! Good morning and have a successful and spirit filled working week!!!

LET US APPROACH THE THRONE OF MERCY: Acts 4:32-35, 1 Jn 5:1-6, Jn 20:19-31. On this second Sunday of Easter, the Divine Mercy Sunday, we the community of believers come together to continue to express our joy, unity and faith in the risen Christ. As we celebrate the victory of Christ over death, the world and, all oppressive forces, one thing should be paramount in our minds: Unity. The first reading of this Sunday from Acts of the Apostles begins with the will of Jesus that we be one. The early Christian community lived, testified and expressed this unity in their community. We must make sure that all and sundry experiences the power of Christ’s resurrection through unity of purpose, sharing and caring for one another and, even for those who were not Christians. Therefore, our second reading places a task on us as a community of faith. This task is to help others believe that Jesus Christ has truly risen. It is to help those who are still indifferent to the good news and, those who still live under the shadow of darkness experience the new life released by the risen Lord. This is very important in a world where all we hear every day is about wars, bombing, hatred, accidents, shooting, massacre, fighting, killing, broken marriages, broken relationship and fractured families; threats of all kinds to lives an properties and, of course fear of the unknown. We must accept and bring the peace of the risen Christ to our families, to our neighbours, to our communities and our world. Also in our world today we have many peace lacking and, troubled Thomas’ who are yet to believe that Jesus Christ is the risen Lord, or that his resurrection brought them life eternal. May the Lord have Mercy on us and grant us salvation! Good morning and happy Divine Mercy Sunday!!

Any one watching tom and jerry will knw how sad and bored jerry always feel anytime he succeeded in making the house owner kick tom out of the house.... In fact, he(jerry) even goes on to ensure the return of tom to the house.... Bottom line is, we do need each other.

I guess d guy is an atheist....

PROCLAIM THE GOOD NEWS: Acts 4:13-21, Mk 16:9-15. For the Jewish officials to acknowledge that a man crippled since birth has been cured through the power of Jesus would undermine their own authority and would go against their interest. So they command Peter and John not to speak to anyone in the name of Jesus. Their reply - "It is impossible for us not to speak about what we have seen and heard." Earlier, these disciples had failed to believe the witness of the woman and certain eyewitnesses to the resurrection of Jesus. But now because they were filled with the Spirit, they are now filled with the compulsion to speak out. Jesus speaking to us across the years invites us to believe the words of those "who saw Him after He had been raised." We are not eyewitnesses to the events of over 2,000 years ago, but we are aware of today's reality that Jesus lives among us, in the hungry, and in the suffering. And so it should be impossible for us not to speak out about what we see and hear and not to ease the pain of those in whom Christ lives, just as Peter and John felt compelled to call on Jesus to help the crippled man. We speak when we act. Even actions speak louder than voice. May the Lord help all those who govern our Country to exercise their office with justice and compassion, so that they can help promote the peace of the world! Amen!! Good morning and happy weekend!!!

ALLELUIA, HE IS RISEN: Acts 3:11-26, Lk. 24:35-48. The apparition of Jesus to His disciples reveals God's initiatives in searching and establishing relationships with us. Even before we go in search of God, He comes to meet us. After the resurrection Jesus appears to the women, to the disciples of Emmaus and to the Apostles. He takes initiatives in each of these apparitions. In fact, He is standing at our door, knocking; if we hear His voice and open the door, He will comes to meet us at different times and in different forms. The disciples were slow to recognise the resurrected Christ. They didn't believe Mary Magdalene, because she was a woman. They startled to find Jesus on the road to Emmaus. And when the Lord came to them behind closed doors, they were troubled, questioning and afraid. They had travelled with Jesus, they had listen to Him, they had witnessed the miracles and yet they are full of doubt. Today, Jesus shows us His face in the stranger on the street, in the voice of a colleague, in the embrace of a loved one. Do we respond to His invitations, do we see Him, do we hear His voice, do we feel His presence? May the Lord draw us from sin and close Himself! Amen!! Good morning and have a pleasant day!!!

EASTER GLORY FILLS THE SKY: Acts 3:1-10, Lk. 24:13-35. In today's first reading, the people are astonished to see Christ healing power in Peb ter and John. At first, the lame man was disappointed that the disciples could offer no money. But in his disappointment the power of God was made manifest when he cast his gaze on the disciples. The same way, the disciples on the way to Emmaus was disappointed that the one they had hoped will redeem Israel was killed by the same people they had thought He would conquer. However, they regain their hope when they demanded that the Lord should stay with them. Because Christ live and ever present with us, all fear is gone and we need to invite Him to stay with us always. In case we feel disappointed that our weaknesses comes back after the Lenten mortification of self and thinking of returning to business as usual like the disciples on the way to Emmaus, Jesus who enlightened these men can do the same for us. We too, if only we would examine ourselves sincerely, with an attentive examination of our sadness, our discouragement, our being little tired of life, we would find a clear link with this Gospel passage. We would discover how we often remark 'if God is alive, He wouldn't have allow this or that to happen to my family,' because we forget that, just as on the road to Emmaus, Jesus is alive and by our side at this very moment. This discovery will enlighten our faith and revive our hope. Jesus commands now at this very moment that we walk with Him. Jesus lives. May the Lord awaken our hearts and make us holy this day by the gift of the Spirit! Amen!! Good morning, It is well with you!!!

WEEP NO MORE: Acts 2:36-41, Jn 20:11-18. Peter has been transformed from cowardly denying Jesus to addressing a crowd of three thousand. He tells them to "repent and be baptised in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins". In the same way, Mary Magdalene transformed from being sinner to Saint. In her grief and hopelessness she mistakes Jesus for the gardener in her search. Only when Christ calls her name does she realise who He is. She cries out in joy and later proclaims to the disciples "I have seen the Lord." Having seen the light of the risen Christ, she is changed from a woman lost in grief to a light herself. The glow of Easter is still upon us. The glory of the risen Christ shines for us. Once we have seen this light , we can never be the same. Christ calls us to be lights for the world so that our lives, like Peter and Mary Magdalene might reflect just a little of the light of Christ to those stumbling through a dark world. Mary, whom everyone considers a "sinner" revealed great love and this love erased the old and the shameful label attributed to her. Hence, it is said, "One single act of love destroys a multitude of sins." The story of Mary Magdalene is our story. Mary the "sinner" became Mary the "saint". This indicates what we can be become. The different between sinners and saints is that of the experience of love and the consequent lifestyle of love. Let the example of Mary prompt us to love, and let the experience of our love give rise to the conversion of many. May the Lord continue to be bountiful to us, and lead us to the perfect freedom by which the joy that gladdens our way on earth shall be fulfilled in heaven! Amen!! Good morning, Peace be with you!!!

Pretty much peaceful..

LET US GO TO GALILEE: Acts 2:14:22-33, Mt. 28:8-15. In today's first reading, we see Peter as nothing but the fearful disciple we had seen in the past. After the descent of the Holy Spirit, Peter stands in the midst of the crowd and in a firm voice proclaims that Jesus is the Messiah. This "new" Peter speaks in a different and more confident voice than the one who had huddled in fear in the locked upper room after the crucifixion. He has been changed. Why? Jesus gives us the answer as he meets the women rushing from the tomb. His first words to them - and us - are "Peace!" And then "Do not be afraid!" Jesus wants us first to be at peace, to feel the love and redemption He offers us. Yes, it is true and now, as believers, witnesses to this miracle of love, we are asked by Jesus to "go and carry the news..." There are days when we will be happy to do so with courage and joy. There will be times when we will forget, fall asleep, deny Jesus and run away fearfully, forgetting the joy. But He will always be there to meet us with His arms gently open, His eyes filled with love, saying, "Do not be afraid." May the joy of the Lord continue to be our strength this Easter season! Amen! Good morning and Happy Easter Monday!!!

macof:
Lmao look this ignorant and yet arrogant lady
When will you have sense to realize that history is not a belief system
Facts are there
1. All new testament books were examined and compiled by the catholics
2. We don't know what Jesus and his friends really believed because the books in the Bible that talk about them aren't authentic..either written by hearsay, or by Unknown authors claiming big names close to Jesus
3. Early non members of the church, like gnostics were forced to dump their beliefs or die


This is fact lady not emotional sentiment

Do you think their pastor will tell them that the bible was compiled by the one church they so much speak against in their every day sermon....


They keep saying there is another early Christian church aside the Catholic Church... But they can't tell us where the church is or when did it cease to exist.
