Hello Dalcent, You answered to me by mistake, but I would like to respond. What you state concerning the creedal confession is correct. I agree with it. However in application (as stated in the catechism) there is almost no agreement. For instance, the catechism states: 1116 Sacraments are "powers that come forth" from the Body of Christ, [Cf. Lk 5:17; 6:19; 8:46] which is ever-living and life-giving. They are actions of the Holy Spirit at work in his Body, the Church. They are "the masterworks of God" in the new and everlasting covenant. This is simply a misuse of Scripture. The sacraments have no derived power. It sounds good, but the Bible never hints at this. And I could easily give other examples. Steve |

Luther and Zwingli had diametrically opposed understandings of the Eucharist sacraments. Any understanding of the sacraments is obviously subjacent to the essential saving truths of Christianity: belief in Christ's incarnation, His divinity and His atoning death. | ||||||

Hello Dalcent, Again, I don't disagree with your statements. I disagree with how the catechism misuses the Bible. Steve |
