Hank, John Ronald Reuel Tolkien. I was aware of the friendship with Lewis. They both belonged to a informal group of friends called The Inklings who were Oxford Dons and aspiring writers. I can understand the initial for Clive Staples, but not for John. I wonder is the use of initials was just a common practice of the day in some circles. Emmaus |

One, This issue has been covered at length more than once before on this forum. Agreement seems unlikely. Below is a link that addresses and responds to most of the point you have made. Some may find it reasonable and some may not, but it coveres the subject pretty well in a reasonably brief form. http://WWW.CATHOLIC.COM/library/Praying_to_the_Saints.asp Emmaus |

One, "how any one can read Rev 5:8 and see in between the lines dead saints hearing our prayers and interceding on our behalf is beyond me.It just says it’s the prayers of the saints, I always have seen this as the living saints prayers." Exactly! They are the prayers of the living saints! And they are being offered by the other saints in heaven (the twenty four elders)like incense. That is the intercessory prayer of the saints in heaven. The communion of saints is not broken by death (Rom 8:34-38). We are all still in communion with one another in and through Jesus interceding for one another in and as the Body of Christ (Ep 1:22-23; Col 3:15). Emmaus |

richilou, It is a wise man who concentrates on what he knows and is silent in areas where his knowledge is lacking. Your knowledge about Catholic doctrine is lacking. Let me address just two parts of your post. " Catholics have nothing to do with the salvation presented in the Bible. They believe in Jesus Christ, yes, but at the same time, they believe in a salvation by works,(richilou's mistaken belief about Catholic docrtine), which is completely condemned by the apostle Paul in Ephesians 2.8-10. " The real Catholic teaching from the Council of Trent: "CHAPTER VIII HOW THE GRATUITOUS JUSTIFICATION OF THE SINNER BY FAITH IS TO BE UNDERSTOOD But when the Apostle says that man is justified by faith and freely,[44] these words are to be understood in that sense in which the uninterrupted unanimity of the Catholic Church has held and expressed them, namely, that we are therefore said to be justified by faith, because faith is the beginning of human salvation, the foundation and root of all justification, without which it is impossible to please God[45] and to come to the fellowship of His sons; and we are therefore said to be justified gratuitously, because none of those things that precede justification, whether faith or works, merit the grace of justification." "Canons Concerning Justification Canon 1. If anyone says that man can be justified before God by his own works, whether done by his own natural powers or through the teaching of the law,[110] without divine grace through Jesus Christ, let him be anathema." "Their system is hypocritical without realizing it fully themselves. So, for instance, they say that baptism is a key to enter the family of God. I ask you a question: "Have you ever noticed that, on the cross, one of the criminals who was crucified with Jesus, has been saved by his conversion, and no baptism has never been done for him." (richilou's mistaken belief about catholic doctrine) The real Catholic doctrine about baptism from the Catechism of the Catholic Church: "VI. THE NECESSITY OF BAPTISM 1257 The Lord himself affirms that Baptism is necessary for salvation.[59] He also commands his disciples to proclaim the Gospel to all nations and to baptize them.[60] Baptism is necessary for salvation for those to whom the Gospel has been proclaimed and who have had the possibility of asking for this sacrament.[61] The Church does not know of any means other than Baptism that assures entry into eternal beatitude; this is why she takes care not to neglect the mission she has received from the Lord to see that all who can be baptized are "reborn of water and the Spirit." God has bound salvation to the sacrament of Baptism, but he himself is not bound by his sacraments. 1258 The Church has always held the firm conviction that those who suffer death for the sake of the faith without having received Baptism are baptized by their death for and with Christ. This Baptism of blood, like the desire for Baptism, brings about the fruits of Baptism without being a sacrament. 1259 For catechumens who die before their Baptism, their explicit desire to receive it, together with repentance for their sins, and charity, assures them the salvation that they were not able to receive through the sacrament."

richilou, If it wasn't for the Catholic Church preserving and copying the Bible over the centuries, especially the New Testament, you wouldn't even have the bible. In fact the Catholic Church was proclaiming and preaching the Gospel before the New Testament was even written. That is how it was able to discern what books reflected the true Gospel and word of God and what did not when they identified the cannonical books of the New Testement. That is one Catholic Tradition you and all Christians hold, whether you know it or not. Catholic Tradition and Councils are what determined the table of contents of your New Testament my friend. It did not come with a table of contents. Emmaus |

236 | Why transliterate "baptizo"? | Bible general Archive 1 | Emmaus | 77088 | ||
Actually there is a diference between pouring and sprinking. Pouring tended to be the more commonon Catholic method with infants at the time. Sprinking tends in Catholic circles to be restricted in practice to deathbed baptisms of the sick. Pouring was and is also the normal practice for the Anglican Church after the split with Rome.

237 | Why transliterate "baptizo"? | Bible general Archive 1 | Emmaus | 77101 | ||
The early Churh obviously felt that pouring or sprinkling fit with the meaning of the word. See the Didache. See also the link below for a more detailed discussion. http://www.catholic.com/library/Baptism_Immersion_Only.asp Emmaus |

I do not subscribe to the theory. I just wanted to direct you to an answer to your question. It is the main historical-critical analysis theory of liberal scripture scholars of the late 19th and 20th centuries. | ||||||
