Ahhhh Come on now, this stuff isnt addicting, just one time wont hurt..... BULLONEY.... one time can kill you.... drugs, sex, sin of all sorts.... lies, deceit, twisting of the Word, changing the meaning, replacing God with man (or woman).......... from what I see here on this thread, what i have seen in person, what i have experienced thru-out life, I do not believe this marriage ( catholic / protestant ) would be conducive to proper growth in the Lord..... there would be a missing link in their bond with each other, a major part of their lives together would be missing.... mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My 'interfaith' marriage between me (a BELIEVING Protestant) and my wife (a BELIEVING Roman Catholic) has gone just fine for the last 18 years...There has been NONE of the strife and conflict you allege should be present in such relationships. The only conflict I have seen in this thread is from people who haven't the foggiest clue what they are talking about speaking as if they are authorities... Or people making up stories about what Catholics supposedly believe and teach when Catholics don't believe or teach such things at all. Even after provided link after link to official Catholic teaching, some here continue to prove their own ignorance by insisting their myths are the truth... Not much more that can be done with folks who wish to be willingly ignorant but ignore them... :t: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I H ARDLY THINK SO. IS SEEMS AS U WANT TO AN ARGUEMENT BUT I WILL JUST GIVE U SCRIPTURES ABOUT WHAT U SHOULD DO. LIKE IT OR LEAVE IT Eph 4:24 And that ye put on the new man, which after God is created in righteousness and true holiness. Eph 4:25 Wherefore putting away lying, speak every man truth with his neighbour: for we are members one of another. Eph 4:26 Be ye angry, and sin not: let not the sun go down upon your wrath: Eph 4:27 Neither give place to the devil. Eph 4:28 Let him that stole steal no more: but rather let him labour, working with [his] hands the thing which is good, that he may have to give to him that needeth. Eph 4:29 Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth, but that which is good to the use of edifying, that it may minister grace unto the hearers. Eph 4:30 And grieve not the holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption. Eph 4:31 Let all bitterness, and wrath, and anger, and clamour, and evil speaking, be put away from you, with all malice: Eph 4:32 And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake hath forgiven you. ONE MORE THING IS JESUS CHRIST YOUR SAAVIOUR .??/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The priest told her if she married him she was never to return to the Catholic church. She is not confused and you have no idea what individual churches have done in their past. You were very rude in your last post. I am telling you what she and her parents (who still are members of the Catholic Church the same church as excommunicated my mom in fact) have told me. I don't see that you are in any position to say they are lying or making up stories since you were not there to witness the event. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

( wouldnt that fall under the catagory of adultry?? the same as most list divorce under........ come now..... My God forgave all my sins, not just some, not certain ones, but all of them.... why can not man accept the fact that God forgave them all....... you can do what you want, you can think what you want.... but from what i have been thru, what i have seen, what i have been informed of by the Lord God, and well, yes, man too, you can keep the catholic church for your self...... and you can keep it to yourself also..... very respectfully, mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just the simple truth. It's obvious folks here don't want to know what the Catholic Church teaches but are content with their own misconceptions and superstitions and myths and even the misuse of scripture to support their error.. Oh well. I tried. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is obviously very volatile. For those of you who have responded in love with a sincere desire to help I thank you and may God continue to give your revelation knowledge about His purpose. I have not made an ultimate decision about how I will proceed but one thing is certain, I will allow myself to be led by the Holy Spirit in whom all truth resides. Amen Jett, The Holy Spirit will guide you in all truth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As believers we need to be careful to not even get involved romantically with people who are Not Bible Based born again Believers. It can save alot of hurt and pain. If you two get married, since you are protestant, and she is Catholic, it WILL cause alot of conflict in your marriage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
