Yes, i read a great deal of it and my question stands. How does your mean spiritedness help your cause?We are not picking on the Catholics. We do not go to their websites. They have come to our web site to cause trouble by claiming all those True Christians who are not members of the Catholic Church will never enter into Heaven.
So why Michael47 are you defending the Catholics? Have you read what they have said? But yet i do not see you saying anything to the Catholics!
Let me guess, Michael47 must be a Corrupted Catholic following Mary as their God.
We have over 9000 posts here trying to show people the Truth that God has in His Scriptures and that only God has all the Truth.
When are we going to realize that the Catholics do not want God's Truth?
Its the lies of the Roman Catholic Church that the Catholics want. I totally believe from all the posts here that the Catholics have no use for God and His Truths.
After all they have their Mary who according to the Catholic Church is greater than God. After all it was Mary who had the Power to keep Jesus Christ free from sin where as God could not. God had to turn to Mary to have her keep Jesus Christ free from sin.
Plus, all the Catholics do is put down us True Christians, calling us names and showing no respect for the Truth from God.
We need to realize we are beating a dead horse to death. The Catholics have their God Mary and do not need anyone to try and shove the True God down their throats.
So i say we need to turn the Catholics over to Satan and allow them to willingly walk into the Lake of Fire.
Jesus Christ said we are not to cast our Pearls of Wisdom before the Swine as they will trample them and call us liars at the same time.
I read it for myself at Catholic Education Resource Center.
It looks like you don't know what your own Mass is actually about - not us.
Its does sound a lot like mwc68. But why was he banned?

Don't you know that Catholics are true Christian? How dare you say that they are not. The statues they kneel down and pray to are an images of Jesus. Corruption in the church and adding to the bible does not make them Atheist. Do you think that they would go to the Catholic church if it was not a Christian church.
The name Christian is a nickname anyway. Just like Mormons is a nickname, they are Christian also. God's plan must have included all these denominations, otherwise why has it come to this? God chose to give milk not meat. That means he is keeping much from us.
If you want to get picky, the Amish think everyone else is wrong too.
And, what the Catholics seem to not know or forget is that there used to be two Popes. One stayed with the Roman Empire and got fueled by them while the other Pope went to the Greek Orthodox. So, which one did Peter really belong to if you think he was the first Pope?
P.S. - I am not a Catholic, but all my kin folk are. When my father-in-law saw me at a get together he said, "You better get that baby Baptized". I have had heart to heart talks about the Catholic church. I told him that I believe it had turned into man made tradition and had strayed from the truth. His response, "How far are you going to go with this". Isn't that what is happening here. How long are we going to slander the Catholics if they do not agree with protestants? Because if you say Catholics are not Christians, that is slander. Are we going to knuckle it out to the end of time?

lol!!! Like most Protestants, you like to cherry-pick what you think helps your anti-Catholic agenda. Why didn't you post the whole article? How about we list all the parts of the Mass and we can go through them one by one as in the order of the Mass. You do a lot of talking, lets see if you have the cojones to back it up. If you do, I'd be willing to bet the one to change their tune will be you!
Here, I'll even help:

So lets start with the first, in its entirety, not your edited version.
Christ's action:
The Holy Mass is the holiest thing we have here on earth. Why? Because it is the action of Christ. The main thing in the Mass is not what is read from the Holy Scriptures, even though this is the word of God and should be listened to as such. The main thing in the Mass is not what the priest preaches in his
sermon nor what the people do or sing. The main thing is what Christ does. And what does Christ do in the Holy Mass? He offers himself for us, as he offered himself on the Cross. He sacrifices himself for us. That is why we say that the Mass is the same Sacrifice as that of the Cross renewed in an unbloody manner on the altar. On the altar just on the Cross, Christ offers his body and blood for us. The difference is that on the Cross his body and blood were visible to the eyes of those who were present, while in the Mass they are hidden under the appearances of bread and wine. But they are really present. This is the great fact. In each Mass, Christ is really present and renews the Sacrifice of the Cross.
The Balls in your court bub!

Probably because of posts #8954 and #8957. That's what I saw anyway.
