]]> Comment on How does a Catholic get to heaven? by John http://bfhu.wordpress.com/2007/04/24/how-does-a-catholic-get-to-heaven/#comment-6271 John Wed, 04 Nov 2009 01:55:56 +0000 http://bfhu.wordpress.com/2007/04/24/how-does-a-catholic-get-to-heaven/#comment-6271 It is as simple as this. There is but one way to get to heaven, and that is to confess to the Lord that you have sinned, believe that Jesus Christ came to Earth and died on the cross for every man's sins. Then ask God to come into your heart and save you. When I say that Jesus died on the cross for every man's sins, this does not mean that every man is saved. No not at all. It means that God sent his son to die on the cross for our sins, and that if we ask him to save us then we will be saved. We do not have to do works to enter the Kingdom of Heaven. However I do believe that once saved, Christians should witness for Christ. And by the way, Mary was a sinner just like every other human that has been on this planet, is on this planet, and will ever be on this planet, except for Jesus. It is as simple as this.

]]> Comment on Martin Luther On the Real Presence by catholicsview http://bfhu.wordpress.com/2007/05/19/martin-luther-on-the-real-presence/#comment-6267 catholicsview Sun, 01 Nov 2009 15:31:48 +0000 http://bfhu.wordpress.com/2007/03/10/martin-luther-on-the-real-presence/#comment-6267 Actually, I believe the latest Lutheran teaching is "If you believe it's Christ, then it is. If you believe it is just a symbol, then that's what it is." Interesting how everything gets changed over time except in the Catholic church when it comes to important things like sacraments. Kevin you are right that transubstantiation is an attempt to explain the mystery of Christ in the Eucharist. It simply means that although to our senses the bread is bread and the wine is wine, it really is the Body and Blood of Christ. It is just applying a name to a truth. The Catholic church does this in a lot of the teachings of the Church. As far as what Luther thought of the Eucharist, even if he did believe the same as Catholics, is only important in that maybe that is why everyone should be Catholic? Especially now, since a lot of the stuff that Luther wasn't willing to wait for (changes in the Catholic church) being changed are not good arguments any longer.

Oh, wait a minute that isn't a good argument since the Catholic church has been around for 2000 years. Maybe a better argument would be that the Catholic church just copied the Old Testament. This one would be better if it wasn't for all of the scriptures that were not included when the Church did canonize the scripture. Consider this everyone, do you go to your church because it's right for you? Or do you go because that is exactly where God wants you to be?

The authority on earth was given to His Church built upon Peter (the first Pope). I suggest that everyone has truly an open mind and start exploring the Catholic Church for what she truly is, the first Church instituted by Christ. Just start reading Acts and you will find in it the beginnings of the Church. Then read Corinthians and you will finally see that there was an authority given to the Apostles and continues up thru today. Today a lot of people don't believe in what we are suppose to believe in because "it's not right for me", "my family goes to this church". Start considering what was right for Christ and the Apostles for once!

]]> Comment on My Conversion by Joseph Duran http://bfhu.wordpress.com/my-conversion/#comment-6264 Joseph Duran Sun, 01 Nov 2009 06:35:39 +0000 http://bfhu.wordpress.com/my-conversion/#comment-6264 Hello Mr. Scerpella, I am sorry that I have not had the chance to give a thourogh answer to your comment. I have been extremely busy. I am sure that you are also, so I appreciate the time you have dedicated to this very important issue. Let me just say at this point that we both have rejected aurthority and we both have accepted authority. Let me ask you a question. If the Scriptures are God's Words and they command me to prove all things and to hold fast to that which may be proven good, and they clearly and explicitly authorize Bishops to marry, how can any man refuse a Bishop to marry? A second question might be, if men do refuse Bishops to marry, and these men claim authority because of a "line of succession" back to the Apostles, should we follow them in spite of the fact that they contradict the Apostles and in spite of the fact that the Apostles warned us that Bishops would fall away and lead many astray? If the Word of God is the seed of the Kingdom, and by sowing it we may grow the Kingdom, should we instead sow the words of men who contradict the Word of God simply because they claim a "line of succession" that stems from the Apostles? I may not bow to every authority. I must choose which authority I will subject myself to. I am a subject of the King, therefore I will follow His words. It does not matter what "line of succession" men may claim. Thank you again for your time. I will try to elaborate more on these things soon. Hello Mr. Scerpella,

Look at the hebrew. 1 John 5:13 , and 6:37-44 its pretty clear if you are truly saved you cannot lose it. But we need to test ourselves to make sure were truly saved from time to time. To say you will go to hell if you die sinning is heresy, unless you were never saved to begin with. In that case it makes no difference if you were sinning or not. ezekiel means he might actually die, not go to hell. Look at the hebrew.
