Not your pope wrote: "Therefore, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us also lay aside every weight, and sin which clings so closely, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us looking to Jesus, the founder and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is seated at the right hand of the throne of God." -[URL=http://bible.cc/hebrews/12-1.htm]]]Hebrews 12:1-2[/URL] Well done Blessed Kateri Tekakwitha. You've finished the race. Thank you SA for these important articles about the Roman Catholic Church. Well all need a hero, especially since the days are evil. Saint Kateri, pray for us. For the sake of argument, let's assume Kateri is in heaven with the Father through her trust in Jesus Christ. Even so...she is not omnipresent (everywhere at all times) able to hear prayers prayed to her, and she especially is not omnipotent (all powerful), able to perform or affect answers to prayers. Only God alone has the power to hear ALL prayers, see all things, work out our circumstances, bless us, heal us, and answer our prayers. I have Catholic family and this just saddens me. "...looking unto Jesus, the founder and perfecter of our faith..." |

"But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father." (Mark 13:32) "Watch therefore, for you do not know what hour your Lord is coming. But know this, that if the master of the house had known what hour the thief would come, he would have watched and not allowed his house to be broken into. Therefore you also be ready, for the Son of Man is coming at an hour you do not expect." (Matthew 24:42-44)What part of this do these people not understand?! The second coming is compared to a thief coming in the night. If you know a thief is going to come, you will wait up and watch for the thief; you will be well prepared so the thief will not catch you unprepared. If you knew the when the thief would come, you would be prepared then. But you will not know WHEN the thief is coming, only that he IS COMING! The message is that we should live in a state of preparedness, watching, in such a way that the Lord may come back AT ANY MOMENT!!! It's a shame that they are using all of that money to spread their own agenda and false teaching than using it to spread the news that Jesus was crucified for our sins, rose again, and is coming again. For that we should be prepared through repentance and reconciliation with God. |

Scott, you are absolutely right. Barry is right, too. Paul says everything for us is lawful, but everything is not beneficial."Walk in wisdom toward those who are outside, redeeming the time. Let your speech always be with grace, seasoned with salt, that you may know how you ought to answer each one." (Colossians 4:5-6) Jesus' harsh words were for the Pharisees who should have known better, who should have known Him. Paul, also, on Mars Hill spoke with grace and reason to those worshipping false gods; to Peter, who should have known better, he spoke harshly, rebuking him. "Now then, we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God were pleading through us: we implore you on Christ's behalf, be reconciled to God." (2 Corinthians 5:20) No one on this forum, I don't think, is disputing whether or not Islam is of the devil: of course it is. But do we just want revenge or to express our hatred, or do we want the lost reconciled to Christ? May the name of the Lord Jesus Christ not be blasphemed because of us and our witness. |
