FTima, I was not expecting you to agree with my post. I was only showing you what I believe on the questions you had raised in your post. It is well known on this forum that I am Catholic, maybe the only one here at this point. And it is well known that Catholics rely on Scripture and Sacred Tradition and not Scripture alone. Fear not! I haven't made any converts here yet that I am aware of, nor have I drowned anyone by dragging them across the Tiber for an involuntary baptism by immersion into Rome. :-) The Pascal Mystery is the whole the mystery of salvation by the death and resurrection of Christ the Pascal (Passover) Lamb of God (1 Cor 5:7; John 1:29)who died for us.

Greetings FTimA! The mystery of Christ has been revealed - Jesus is God's Perfect provision for the salvation of the whole world. Can you explain HOW this is possible? It's a mystery to me! In your profile you wrote,"How could this have come about by mere chance?". The "mystery of Christ" relies upon the same answer. (GOD alone) We know through God's Word that He saves man based upon faith alone (Eph. 2:8-10 et al)But can we explain HOW God saves? HOW means, what is the process that takes place in us that we degenerates become righteous, acceptable to God? When we do not understand HOW something "works," we often call it a mystery. The same can be applied to HOW God declares us righteous by the shed blood of Christ . . . can you explain HOW Christ's ressurection insures the same for us as believers? It's a mystery to me, yet knowing the One who keeps secrets (Dt 29:29)enables my heart to have confidence that He is faithful to do as He promises. Blessings on your day. Mommapbs |
