( using the basic, who, what, where, when, why, and how.....) mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because when I first read the name of this thread, I thought it was about how people get named saints. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rom 1:8 First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for all of you, because your faith is proclaimed in all the world. . And there are dozens of other scriptures on the subject.

This is not a Roman Catholic site, for questions about this topic you should go to a Roman Catholic web site or ask an informed Catholic. There are some Catholics here but not many.

If we just start talking about the Cannon and how it was established I am sure others will join in. It is a good topic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
