OP

Its true that Catholics have Christ already. The issue of so much Man tradition in the church is a big problem.

But only God can help some of the members to see the truth and not practice all of Catholic doctrines.

The Image worshiping and child baptism are the worst practice of Catholicism. I can go in and worship there but never will i bow to the socalled Jesus image or say "Holy Mary mother of God." Or even confess my sins to a man (priest). One good thing is that. They know and Love Christ. But they hold on to too much traditions like the pharisees.

have u taken time even research these issues u seem to condemn? or u just condemn them because ur pastor say so.

OLAADEGBU:
Are there supposed to be any rituals in Christianity? Does true biblical Christianity have any rituals?

YES!!!
Chief among those rituals is baptism and the lord's supper.

majalisa:
very true but you missed the part where the same Roman authorities instituted catholicism as the official religion under emperor Constantine and the early Christians both Jews and non Jews were persecuted

You have a valid point, emperor constantine gave freedom to xtians and another emperor made it a state religion, this made it posible for heresy to the punished... the jews were persecuted even b4 xtianity, d church didn't begin their persecution...that story is pandoras box.

sisisioge:


Your question is considered really serious amongst Catholics. We are all Christians as far as I'm concerned but because the Catholic doctrine is especially different from the regular Redeemer, Anglican, Jehovah witness, etc, they (the Catholics) find it difficult marrying outside their church. If you are the other Christian here and the woman, you should ask yourself if you are willing to become a catholic. If yes, then welcome to a beautiful world with very primitive doctrines one of which regards family planning... you and rats go begin compete on who can born more

my dear, please investigate before making ignorant comments, there is something called "responsible parenthood" in catholic teaching which means you can't give birth indiscriminately, u should give birth only to as much as u can take care of. Catholic do family planing, it is part of marriage course, what they reject is artificial contraception as against God's plan 4 marriage.

Interesting. You seem to think that i am a protestant or whatever. Sorry i'm not a catholic or protestant.
I promise you, These names you will never hear in Heaven. Neither will anyone be awarded on the last day because he/she is catho or prostes
You will be awarded as a child of God. So i am a (Child of God) by his grace.

I dont care about RCCG, CCC or DCLBC etc. They are not found in the bible.

Weytin u come dey yarn?

How does this concern what we were talking about eh?

If u don't have a fitting response for my points wait until u are ready.
We are talking abt offices in d church on earth and you are talking about heaven.

If u no get weytin to talk abeg just wait.

I don't believe in all these paid junk journalists.... Because based on logistics and indices On ground ... Prices of materials.. Foodstuff and services are still going up

High prices is actually inflation and that hasnt come down, but it seem we are out of recession.

Bibors:
Until you show the layman on the street that his salary can now comfortably pay for fuel for his generator, tanker water, disco abi PHCN bills, garri and rice , house rent and school fees to say the least them I will believe the Country is out of recession.

If I mistakenly leave this country, it's bye forever

What you describe above is called inflation, our inflation rate hasn't come down but we are moving out of recession, i.e our economy has began to grow again.

I watched the interview live. Dont want to go into debate on this. He said so. See photos:

oga read up.

He also never justified the terrorist, infact he clearly said that violence is never d right answer and called violence in the name of God an aberration. He also noted that freedom of expression should have it just limits and mocking other peoples beliefs isn't right.

plappville:
Good question. But again why this?



What has His resigned got to do with the issue? Is there resignation in Gods work? I been think say na till death oo

Actually a christian will always do Gods work, but ofcuz he may resign from an office if he discerns that God wishes him to continue in a different capacity. he is still a priest but he is not pope.
i hear a similar tin happened in rccg recently, they said adeboye resigned from d office of G.O

plappville:
They have given their lives to Christ. They believe Christ is the Son of God. The messiah etc. But There are some issues in the Church. God will help the members to see they are been les astray by the too much men tradition of the Church.

It is a pity, you don't even know it is your protestant church that follows traditions of men.

brocab:
"No" but Tyndale was one of the many millions the Catholic Church had murdered.

If the Church didn't commit these crimes than I ask why is the Pope calling for the Churches to reunite-Sorry is his term used, and lets forget about the past and move on.
[color=#000099]They were murdered to keep their mouths shut away from the public, lets look at history again when the Catholic Church supported Hitler and his army, while God's own people were being slaughtered daily. Are you going to deny this too?

why do u like to speak from ignorance?
Tyndale was killed in England in the riegn of King Henry vii the founder of the anglican church. Infact he couldn't have been killed by the church because catholic priest were prohibited by canon law from pronouncing and executing death sentence. So ask d english people abt tyndale. D church didn support hitler, that is a myth. The opposite was the case.

plappville:
The Pope does not preach to Muslims either. He even supported them last year when He said. If anyone insults his mum he will blow up the persons head.

A way of justifying the terrorist attack carried out by the islamist two brothers who killed French journalists just because they caricatured Muhammed.

D pope never said he will blow up d persons head, oga pls don't lie. read up on d issue again.

diva90:
What do u mean ex pope? He's the current pope till death do him part

He is papa emeritus, i.e ex-pope, he has resigned

gidjah:
despite that he is drinking alcohol, doesn't yet , make it right in Gods presence. that he (d pope) is doing it, doesn't make it any good.abeg make una let us hear word.

Where did God condemn alcohol?

michaelandre:
its not achoholic

It is alcoholic even d wine used at mass is alcohol.

ndcide:
Looks like we're going to have more drunkards in the Catholic Church, following this unfortunate action.

The catholic church is always clear, to drink alcohol isnt sinful, to get drunk is sinful.
nothing new here.

kurzm:
Nobody seems to see a thing wrong with d pope gulping bear, world is really crazy, why then do y'all blame other pastors for adultry, DAT should be cool too na. Alryt, gay is good, says d pope. Zombie people.

Who told you that drinking alcohol is a sin?

An2elect2:
yuck

mod: Jesus didn't need physical protection, but "his earth representative" is using a bullet proof car. LOL

Atleast no jihadist during Jesus' time.

I still remember how pope st john paul ii was shot severally by a jihadist...not funny. Prevention is allowed.

majalisa:
and the same treatment was meted on the early Christians by the Roman Catholic Church if not worse..l

you have it upside down, the persecution was meted by d roman authorities\emperors on the early catholic church.

Bros, the ATMs were provided in the end of the second week, about seven of them including the mobile one provided by Union bank which proved to have served me the most as there was always cash there.

so they took correction and improved their services.

Hiswordxray:
There are no Catholic Church close to me. I'm in Zamfara state where there are very few churches.

even in d north the are more catholic churches than any other church, i'm pretty sure there is one in d village/town where u are.

In all honesty, I do not see myself marrying from another tribe. I would want my kids to have pure Igbo genes. Mixing their genes with some other dirty oily cowardly genes just doesn't seem right.

Besides, Igbo girls got it all; beauty, brains and everything else.


**Yes I'm a proud tribalist, deal with it.

This is exactly how hitler started, he was shouting 'pure german blood' and the others he considered inferior. We know how he ended, don't be a bigot.

"Helvidius displayed excessive ignorance in concluding that Mary must have had many sons, because Christ’s “brothers” are sometimes mentioned"......Calvin


hahahaha, some are still like Helvidius today albeit "excessively ignorant". Na calvin talk o.

Lol,
quoting d 'reformers' is very interesting.

thorpido:
God approves the children,not the people or purpose by which they come.Every child comes with a destiny that is independent of whether they come from illicit relationships or illicit IVF deals.

nobody is arguing about the children, even d pope will agree that a child of rape is still a child created and loved by God, an ivf child is also loved by God even d pope will agree.
The problem is d means! That is where d pope disaproves, d means is wrong! To treate human life as a lab commodity is wrong.

Every one must now see that infant baptism, which receives such strong support from Scripture, is by no means of human invention.
Nor is there anything plausible in the objection, that we no where read of even one infant having been baptized by the hands of the apostles. For although this is not expressly
narrated by the Evangelists, yet as they are not expressly excluded when mention is made of any baptized family (Acts 16:15, 32), what
man of sense will argue from this that they were not baptized?

I hope you understand this guy was a class bully? That's how he would graduate from pushing their foreheads to taking their lunch and finally beating them up. Bullies make people cower not because they are strong but because they pretend to be. When you react, it stops . I'm sure that boy never did that rubbish to the girls again.

Unfortunately, bigots like you tend to call every woman who has an independent opinion feminist. My father taught me to defend myself. I owe nobody an apology for being strong.

I seem to agree.

Exactly @bolded.
We are concerned about the ones He approves.Heart transfers and IVF fall in the same category.They sustain life unlike bombs that destroyWe are concerned about the ones He approves.Heart transfers and IVF fall in the same category.They sustain life unlike bombs that destroy.
They can't even be compared.

Are you even aware that even none married people even use d same ivf and get kids as a commodity? Or people who run ponzi schemes by selling ivf kids?

Except the Lord build a house,they labour in vain that build it....

The scientists can only work in the lab but the life still comes from God.That is why some die off.The ones that stay,stay because God sustained them.

yeah and the bomb that blew, blew because God allowed it.

That God allows a thing doesn't mean he approves it.

irynterri:
lol,this your story get as him be, actually the council of Nicea came together to choose a particular period of time to celebrate the resurrection of Christ because different factions of the church celebrated it on different days,their decision was that Easter will be the Sunday following the Jewish Passover day,according to the bible, Jesus celebrated the Passover on Thursday where he instituted the Holy communion,after the feast he was betrayed by Judas,on Friday he was crucified (Jewish day of preparation) and Sunday he arose(after 3 days).when reading history books always go for the unbiased ones..HAPPY EASTER

thanks for teaching him.

brocab:
Yes and Tyndale did receive it from the Catholic Church, which then it was written in the Latin language, I see you had left out the truth about Tyndale's story-He later change Latin into English, and was murdered by the Catholic Church for stepping out in great faith.
Along with the others-who stepped out in faith..

Actually tyndale was killed under the reign of henry xiii d founder of anglicanism. so if u want to hold someone reposible hold the anglican.

Tyndale wasn't the first to translate the bible into english BEDE was, centuries b4 tyndale.

daveP:
Im a christian, but the origin of this word easter has pagan traits globally verified. the roman catholic church are responsible for aligning pagan festivals and giving them christian backing. the verse in acts that said easter is alien to the original verse. it was done by an excited monk so that the worship of the pagan god istar would be accepted by christians. google it. its a corruption that need correction, but resurrection day is preferable. easter itself is a pagan name. just understand.

the word friday also have pagan origins, hope u don't use it?
