181 | St. Anselem Affirms "By Faith Alone" | Gal 2:16 | Emmaus | 131340 | ||
Doc, With all due respect, I think you may be doing a little isogesis here. There is nothing in what you quoted that I would disagree with. But the great leap to your conclsuion is something I would need more than faith alone in to make. Emmaus |

tnk, I do not know about other churches, but in the Ctaholic Church, the actual ministers of the Sacrament of Matrimony are the man and woman marrying one another. The priest or deacon is merely the offcial witness of the Church to this marriage covenant sacrament. Emmaus |

GB, "Would you not say that it is likely that those guilty of the lifestyle of the sodomite could be "possessed"?" I am not qualified to make that determination. So no, I would not say that. Emmaus |

"Who specifically closed the canon of scripture?I always thought that it was the Catholic Church, but I could be way off here. What specific church fathers are you referring to? What are their names?" I think you are right on the mark. most of the Church Fathers were Bishops of the Church. Here is a link to their names and writings. http://www.ccel.org/fathers2/ Emmaus |

187 | More than one god? | 1 Cor 8:5 | Emmaus | 130353 | ||
ROGER459, You wrote "... The catholics teach three gods..." WRONG! The Catholics do not teach three gods.They teach the One Triune God, Father, Son and Holy Spirit. "The Trinity is One. We do not confess three Gods, but one God in three persons, the "consubstantial Trinity". The divine persons do not share the one divinity among themselves but each of them is God whole and entire: "The Father is that which the Son is, the Son that which the Father is, the Father and the Son that which the Holy Spirit is, i.e. by nature one God."84 In the words of the Fourth Lateran Council (1215), "Each of the persons is that supreme reality, viz., the divine substance, essence or nature." http://www.scborromeo.org/ccc/p1s2c1p2.htm#253 Emmaus |

EdB, On the other hand we do not hand out guns indiscriminately to the youg and inaexperienced and untrained, except in criminal enterprises. And to do so is also civily negligent and actionable. The fact that Colleges and universities are often in collusion with the credit card companies, in exchange for a fee, in allowing them access to the campuses is also dispicable. They thus facititate financial promiscuity in the same way they facilitate sexual promiscuity with open co-ed dormitories. The college culture of death, debt and depravity. Deliver us from evil Oh Lord! Emmaus |

191 | A SIN TO FILE BANKRUPTCY | 1 Pet 4:10 | Emmaus | 130083 | ||
EdB, I am amazed that througout this whole discussion no one has mention the modern practice of usury and the fact that banks and retailers practically forced credit cards on people without worrying whether or not they are credit worth. During the pre-Christmas shopping period I am practically tackled at the entrances of department stores by people wanting to gicve me credit cards. And at the Colleges and Univertsities the students are bombarded in person and by mail with cedits cards and offers of credit cards.How does this happen when most of them have little or negligable income to pay back any credit card debt? The banks and credit card companies, Enron like, count the amount of their tuition as income! No, I am not joking! They really do that. Ah the wonders of creative American business accounting practices. My daighter calls my description of credicard debt as indentured servitude, "Lecture 44." She was advised that if she accepted a single credit card while in college, that I would cease all financial support. Emmaus |

Country Girl, i think you misunderstand Catholic teaching about the office of the Pope. He is just a man who must obey and totally submit to the Lord like all others. He can and does sin like others. The gift of infallibility is extremely limited and is what is called a negative charism. That is, the Holy Spirit prevents him from teaching in error on faith and morals under certain very specific and limited circumstances. But that is a whole other subject. Several years ago I did a brief series of posts on the subject at Hanks' request. You can, if you wish, follow that thread from the beginning by going to post number 27130 in the Quick Search box to the right side of the screen. Emmaus |

Country Girl, You may wish to look at my post # 129689 to Doc on this thread. It addresses the meeting of the physical and spiritual in Christ and the sacraments. Faith and works can be viewed in a very similar manner. Pauls speaks repeatledly about the "obedience of faith." In fact he opens and closes Romans with that phrase. Works of obience are nothing more than the physical maifestation of the spiritual reality of saving faith and grace. They do not need to be compartmentalized any more than we compartmentalize our spirits and bodies as we live. They are an integrated and unified reality. thus the importance of the Resurrection which restore that reality. James illustrates this reality when he says "faith without works is dead." This is obvious because we know, as did James, that the man whose spirit (faith) has been separated from its body (the physical manifestation of the spirit or soul)(works) is dead. Emmaus |

Doc, As with most things here discussed, Christ is the key! In Christ the Spiritual and corporal meet! Christ is THE Sacrament, a sign (physical in the Incarnation) which accomplishes (spiritually) what it signifies by the very physical act. i.e. the saving work of Christ's passion and death. All sacraments and their grace flow from the font of the cross. And we, the Church are now Christ's corporal presence in the world. One of the key differences between Catholics other Christians is that Catholics, because of how they view the Incarnation and its significance, not not feel constrained to separate the spiritual and physical. They do not have an either / or approach to things but rather a both / and approach. Man is not a purely spiritual being like the angels, but an integrated being composed of body and soul. And Christ came to redeem that and restore what the Father created. He took on our body that we might again take on his spirit, so to speak. And so Catholics love "smells and bells" because with them we may worship God with our whole mind and BODY and strength. For us it is a beautiful thing. Christ sanctified the physical and redeemed it by the Incarnation. It is interesting that under the law when a clean thing came into contact withan unclean thing, the clean thing became unclean. But with Christ when an unclean thing came into contact with Him (THE clean thing), the unlean (e.g. lepers) became clean. Of course there is some dispute about whether Christ actually baptized people in John 4:1, but no dispute about his command to baptize in Matt 27:19 where the making of disciples, the Gospel and the baptism arew all tied together in one verse. No offense was taken by you comments. I just think that most people misunderstand exactly what Catholics thing about many things and it is usually reflected in their choice of descriptive or explanatory words and phrases, although not necesarily with any malice. It merely reflects their own frame of reference. Emmaus |

Country Girl, I have been reading this thread and your other posts on a similar theme. Whether intentional or not, your thinking, and posting, on this subject is very Catholic. Sometimes you can get in as much trouble speaking for or with the Catholic Church as you can by "speaking out against the Catholic Chrurch." Next thing you know you'll be spouting Latin. ;-) Emmaus |
