Well, do you want to talk about protestantism now? What sect are you part of? Are you trying to say that your little schism has not changed over the years? Well, answer this riddle for me: What religion has been here since the time of Christ as one fold(dat's in der Bible) and where is the proof of their history?

There has only been ONE TRUE "Religion"(If you want to call it that), It is called Christianity, where Believers only follow Christ and no other!!!

Christianity is where Repentance and the belief of a Reseurrected Christ Saves ONLY!

Where we acknowledge that ONLY the BLOOD OF CHRIST cleanses us from sin!

Where we acknowledge that ONLY the Bible is the Infallible word of God!

Where we acknowledge that by Faith ONLY we are saved!

Where we believe that "Born Again" believers have been indwelt with the Holy Spirit ONLY!

We Christians are apart as night to day of any other "Religion" on earth!

ONLY CHRIST SAVES!

Douay,

I have to admit the weed thing was hilarious. But still you're a meany. Just like our brother Tyler, who's name should be changed to Tryler, as he try's people kindness.

Define We.

So Catholics are all forced slaves? Or are you saying that Jesus saved everybody whether they followed him or not?

No. I was responding to the claim that all people on earth are the proper subjects of the Pope.

Jesus certainly desired that all people should follow him, but he didn't claim the whole world as his followers.

By definition not all edicts are infallibile. Only a few have been. Most Church law does not fall into that category. Just because something doesn't satisfy the requirements doesn't mean it isn't 100% true. Some things are meant to change also.

Therefore, if some council edicts are infallible, and some are fallible, who decides which are which, and which should be 100% adhered to and which do not have to be?

I can't speak for official Catholic doctrine but I can say this as a fact, the Church of Christ that I was raised in and which was founded in 1907 does teach that you MUST be a member of the Church of Christ or be doomed to hell. Anyone who is *christian* apart from the denomination of the Church of Christ, i.e. Baptist, Anglican, Methodist....ANYONE, who is not a member of the CoC will go to hell... end of story.

Perhaps you should devote a thread to that Tyler.

Traditionally, Charlie, this is pretty much the same thing that the RCC has taught over the past 1,700 years of its existence. This is also the very same thing that most cults teach (Such as the CoC, LDS, JW's, Iglesia Ni Cristo, etc.)

Are you still a member of the CoC?

All I can add is how relieved I am that my eternity is NOT in the hands of any man but IN the hands of the Lord God in Heaven. Nuf' said!

Bless you saints,
