So how much does it cost in 2021$ to buy my brother out of Hell?matt 28:19 I am with you (the apostles) in his church until the end
.... 10. So, Venerable Brethren, it is clear why this Apostolic See has never allowed its subjects to take part in the assemblies of non-Catholics: for the union of Christians can only be promoted by promoting the return to the one true Church of Christ of those who are separated from it, for in the past they have unhappily left it. To the one true Church of Christ, we say, which is visible to all, and which is to remain, according to the will of its Author, exactly the same as He instituted it. During the lapse of centuries, the mystical Spouse of Christ has never been contaminated, nor can she ever in the future be contaminated, as Cyprian bears witness: "The Bride of Christ cannot be made false to her Spouse: she is incorrupt and modest. She knows but one dwelling, she guards the sanctity of the nuptial chamber chastely and modestly."[20] The same holy Martyr with good reason marveled exceedingly that anyone could believe that "this unity in the Church which arises from a divine foundation, and which is knit together by heavenly sacraments, could be rent and torn asunder by the force of contrary wills."[21] For since the mystical body of Christ, in the same manner as His physical body, is one,[22] compacted and fitly joined together,[23] it were foolish and out of place to say that the mystical body is made up of members which are disunited and scattered abroad: whosoever therefore is not united with the body is no member of it, neither is he in communion with Christ its head.[24]
MORTALIUM ANIMOS
ENCYCLICAL OF POPE PIUS XI
ON RELIGIOUS UNITY
you should read the whole document with scripture reference
Sounds Catholic to me.you confess your sins to the apostles Jn 20:21-23
A little strong, but VERY funny."Those who refuse to keep the Fourth Commandment demonstrate they do not love Jesus, for Hebrews 4:9 says in the Peshitta that it's the DUTY of the Christian to keep the Sabbath as a sign to the world that we are resting inwardly in Jesus."
Peshitta. Really? So the Peshitta declares it a duty for me. Well, that certainly settles it. Don't read it in Scripture, but if Peshitta says so, then well, that settles it.
Once people start showing off their Hebrew slang in order to legitimize their push of Old Covenant law, then that is when they have no more merit. Just dealing with another Judaist: half Judaism, half Christianity: Judaistianity
Yeah, maybe so, but honestly, I try to take people seriously with the Word of God, and just when you think you are at least coming to an understanding of difference, they then start in with all their cute little words and terms and sources, that I am glad I never heard of before.A little strong, but VERY funny.
Hopefully they just belong to a Syrian Christian Church and it is simply the bible version they use.
(but probably not.)

Just like your many popes. who you place your blind faith in.they are human and not impeccable
I'm not judging by my own experience but by their doctrine of law of Sabbath. Would they agree with you, that they have 'free choice' on Saturdays?You are making judgements that are simply not true for most Christians. How dare you say that for Saturday sabbath keepers, saturday is the only day they are not free. Who are you to judge whether they are free or not.
If they choose to be in church, worshipping their God, instead of on a boat on a lake fishing, does that mean they are not free. Of course not.
Don't judge others from your own experience.

Luther had a problem with the price being charged in the time of the Reformation, but according to your quote from the RCC ... there has never been anything wrong.
I know that Luther thought it was wrong for Cardinals to have harems, but if there was NEVER ANYTHING WRONG, then I guess Cardinals protecting Child Molesters is really small potatoes.
I do not get the sense that this is an HONEST conversation any longer, so I think it best to just end it.
I do not hate the RCC, but I have little patience for dishonest conversation.
YOU are the ONLY TRUE CHRISTIANS ... ask any of the victims of the RCC.
Sounds Catholic to me.
If we confess our sins to Jesus, the one Mediator, He is faithful and just to forgive our sins. He is the only advocate we have with the Father. (1 John 1,2)
Just like your many popes. who you place your blind faith in.
again, Open your mind. I beg of you
if they are not impeccable. nothing stops them from teaching a non truth.right
What they teach is truth but they are personal not impeccable
if they are not impeccable. nothing stops them from teaching a non truth.
They are no different than Jewish priests. who were set up By God. to be priest to the children of Israel.
BTW, Jesus was not an angel - He merely MANIFESTED Himself as an angel, because God needs to "condescend to men of low estate" much like a smiling father will kneel down low to his small child.
If He manifested Himself as an angel, that would make Him an angel. So you are saying Jesus, who is God, became an angel, then became a human. That's silly.
NO Jesus, NO peace!No apostles no church no salvation
NOT likely! Let's check, with honesty, your obedience?:new covenant church thru Peter, the apostles, and their successors with
THE SAME mission, power, and authority!
