Holy Shake Up, Roman Catholic Women Priests?

@backto1776. That is to bad. God is in control so maybe we will meet and maybe we won't. Repent from your sins and trust in Jesus and nobody else.

thanks but no thanks, have spoken to too many BA's in my lifetime and there is no hope.

@backto1776 I go to church every week. you say"face it fred you are wrong and a fanatic who will never reach heaven because you chose division and intolerance rather than peace. Jesus himself said blessed are the peacemakers for they shall be called the children of God and not those who choose to be divisive and hateful." Now who is judging. I never said that you won't go to heaven. Only God knows that. I believe from what I read in the bible that you can't get into heaven by good works. When you repent and receive Jesus christ into your life as Lord and savior your are born again. What does born again mean to you. I don't hate you. I don't agree with the catholic doctrine, but I don't hate you. I am telling in love that your doctrine is wrong. John 20:21-23 is not saying that believers can forgive somone elses sin. The context is that the believer can boldy declare that somone's sins are forgiven because of the work of Jesus Christ if they repent and put there trust in Him. They can also boldy say that their sins will not be forgiven if they don't repent and trust in Jesus. Peter isn't the foundation of Christ's church. Scripture clearly states that Christ is the foundation(Acts 4:11,12;1 Cor.3:11) and the head(Eph 5:23) of the church. Peter and the apostles played a foundational role in building Christs church. 1 Peter 2:5 Peter explains that believers are living stones to build up the spiritual church. The context of what Jesus is saying about Judgement is we are not to judge unfairly. We are however to judge righteously to be discerning. So the NT is not based on Jewish faith? I wish that we could meet and speak on this in person. So your going to go to heaven because you accept other as they are and are not judgmental. So if that is all it takes to go to heaven than why did Jesus have to die on the cross? Jesus is the only way to heaven. For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God. We are enemies of God because we are sinners.

face it fred you are wrong and a fanatic who will never reach heaven because you chose division and intolerance rather than peace. Jesus himself said blessed are the peacemakers for they shall be called the children of God and not those who choose to be divisive and hateful.

so fred, I take it you don't go to church you simply spend your hour with Jesus alone in your house than. And the reason we call the father is because they are extensions of the apostle Peter whom Jesus himself said upon whom he would build his church. I will go to heaven or wherever because I accept others as they are and am not judgmental. remember do not judge lest you be judge and don't overlook the beam in your own eye. Jesus said alot you should familiarize yourself with. I like the fact you quote the old testament when it pleases you and furthers your hatred of other faiths since it is based upon the Jewish faith. If Jesus did not intend we should ask others for intercessions why would he tell the apostles "those who's wins you forgive are forgiven and those who's sins you retain are retained. He awarded the power to forgive sins to mortals and did not say those who you forgive must be born again first.

You all need prayer. Jesus is Lord. I hope God forgives each one of you all

@backto1776 thanks for calling me narrow minded. I am narrow minded. Mathew 7:13,14 Enter by the narro gate; for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction and there are many who go in by it. Because narrow is the gate and difficult is the way which leads to life and there are few who find it.

You could be right, metal. It is a possibility that Jesus was just a lunatic who only imagined himself to be the Messiah and, though He was penniless, powerless, and living in some nowheres backwater, was still able to convince so many others and untold millions throughout the centuries that He was the Messiah and only by a fluke wound up changing the world more than all the Kings, Philosophers, Generals, Scientists, Poets, Prophets, Politicians, etc, combined. If so then those who do not believe Him to be the Messiah have nothing to worry about. However if He was who He said He was then you could have a rather big problem. Good Luck.

@back1776. Will you go to heaven? Are you good enough?

@backto1776 why do you need the saints and mary's intercession. You can pray directly to Jesus.Romans 8:34 "Who is he that condemns? It is Christ who died and furthermore is also risen, who is even at the right hand of God, who also makes intercession for us." Hebrews 7:25 Therefor He is also able to save to the uttermost those who come to God through Him, since He always lives to make intercession for them. Where in the bible does it say that we should pray for the saints to intercess for us to Jesus? Yes the saints of the old testament were saved because of their faith in God. When we believe in Jesus we are believing in God. For Jesus is God. John 14:8-11. You say Jesus is God as man. I say He is 100% man and 100% God. So if you don't have to be born again than why did Jeusus tell that to Niccudemus. I don't want to grasp anything from catholicism because it is false. Why do you call priests "Father"? Matthew 23:9 " Do not call anyone on earth your father for One is your Father,He who is in Heaven. It is funny your have not once quoted scripture to prove any of your points. @Metalhead Jesus was crucified by the Jews because he claimed to be God. In the epistle of John he says it claims it 6 times. John (6:35;8:12;10:7,9;10:11,14;11:25;15:1,5)Also in Mark 14:62-64 when the Sanhedrin put Jesus on trial.
