1 | When did the catholic church go wrong? | Bible general Archive 1 | Emmaus | 26056 | ||
I am content let my original three posts on Mary and Scripture speak for themselves to those who wish to read and meditate on them and reach their own conclusions. Anything else would be to invite a forum version of a WWF caged ring championship match. It was my understanding that this was scripture discussion forum, not a Catholic bashing forum. Blessings to all on the Feast of the Immaculate Conception! |

Emmaus, and I am content to let your posts on Mary stand. At least you made an attempt to tie them in with Scripture, which is a vast improvement over much I've seen on this forum. I read through your posts regarding Mary and agree with you on spelling her name M-a-r-y and very little else. I happen to believe about Mary what the Scriptures explicitly say about Mary and nothing else. To my mind the Catholics make a far bigger to-do over her than Scripture ever does. But I'm a Southern Baptist and you are, I presume, a Roman Catholic, and we twain might be expected to take separate forks of the road on certain issues. I rather think that neither of us is foolish enough or presumptuous enough to suppose that the other is on a descending path to certain destruction because of these differences of belief. You believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that no man comes to the Father except through Him? I assume you do, and so do I. With that much in common, we can shake hands as brothers, and this puts the rest of our differences in a more proper perspective, don't you agree? I'm not a professional statistician, but I'd say off-hand that about 95 per cent of the points of doctrine that Christians spend so much time stewing over, arguing about, and becoming divided over really won't count for much when finally we meet the Lord face to face. --Hank | ||||||
