Why do Catholics…

[Ronald Nolette]

same thing

this shows me you can vomit a lot of verses out, but don't have a clue as to meaning! Covering and forgiving are two totally different things!

 

[Ronald Nolette]

The confessing of sins to a "father", which can be forgiven by repeating rote "prayers".

Jn 20:23 23 Whose soever sins ye remit, they are remitted unto them; and whose soever sins ye retain, they are retained.

James 5:16
Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much.

1 John 1:9
If we confess our sins, he is faithfuland just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

penance = prayer, fasting, and alms

Your whole thought process is corrupt for there isno more "penance" Jesus paid the full proice for sin! The bible tells us when we sin to simply acknowldege it and god forgives and cleanses.

No penance, no rote pryers (empty words) and no alms!

 

[theefaith]

Well I won't play that word game with you. but God wrote thoughts in order and in a context! And when you pull a verse out of its context and apply it to another context- That is called twisting the scriptures to your own destruction. I don't call that heterodox- I call that apostasydox

that’s reasonable

only the church founded by christ can give the meaning!

we must be taught
Lk 1:4 acts 8:31

No god gave meaning to the words. god is the author of grammar- not the church! Paul told the Bereans not to trust Him but look at the Scriptures and he was teh Pope of the Gentiles!

teh church has authority from teh Word only. If it veers from that word, it has no authority where it veers and must be resisted- no matter what sect.

And remember treh church is not a denomination, but a collection of individuals scatterd in all denominations who have already been forgiven and saved!

Christ is the truth! Jn 14:6
Christ and His church are one! Acts 9:4 eph 5:32
Commanded to teach all men! Matt 28:19
Without error Jn 16:13

What and where is the Spirit of Truth? How does a man recognize the Spirit of Truth?

And that truth was given to the apostles who recorded it into the New Testament! Any supposed "truth" after the Inspired New Testament must be scrutinized by the New Testament and if it contradicts the New Testament, it must be rejected as error at all costs!

 

[Desire Of All Nations]

Palm Sunday has no Pagan origin. But todays easter celebrations are loaded with pagan symbology.

Easter eggs, Rabbits, the name Easter itself (form Ashtarth) Easter bonnets. But once again these in and of themselves are not evil or wrong- unless one places the values the pagans did in these customs.

Not only does the Bible not mention anything about Jesus entering Jerusalem on Sunday, John wrote that this event took place 5 days before the Passover:

"Then, six days before the Passover, Jesus came to Bethany, where Lazarus was who had been dead,[fn] whom He had raised from the dead...the next day a great multitude that had come to the feast, when they heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem, took branches of palm trees and went out to meet Him, and cried out:"- Jhn 12:1, 12-13

And since the Passover that year took place on a Tuesday evening(biblical Wednesday period), it is obvious to anybody that can count that Jesus didn't enter Jerusalem on a Sunday. Literally all of festivals Orthodox Christianity celebrate are centered around sun worship, and the Palm Sunday tradition is no different.

Boy have you bought bizaare conspiracy theories!

Passover was Friday that year! That has firmly been established and confirmed too many times to count! Even the Bible declares it is a Friday!

John 19:31
The Jews therefore, because it was the preparation, that the bodies should not remain upon the cross on the sabbath day, (for that sabbath day was an high day,) besought Pilate that their legs might be broken, and that they might be taken away.

that Sabbath began teh feast of unleavened bread. Passover began Thursday after Sundown and the day of preparation was friday until sundown!

@theefaith If you pray and earnestly study, you will be given truth.That is why it is critical to read your Bible.
Jer 29:13 "And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart."

Wrong again !

All of the Christian truths were revealed by Christ to his church of the apostles! Jude 1:3

Absolutely. And We do not veer from those truths which we call the New Testament. There have been no more apostles since John died!

the church is the pillar and ground of truth!

I’ll say a rosary!

btw did you know there was a house at ground zero in Hiroshima that was completely unharmed and never developed cancer, the priests there were praying the holy rosary of the blessed Virgin Mary mother of God!
