Well, I am a non-Catholic who is an ex-cradle Catholic who never will accept Catholicism again because I truly know what it is.
)I don’t see anything particularly easy about being a Protestant Christian, either. But it is a blessing to be in the Body of Christ, despite the costs of discipleship.
What do you mean by accepting Catholicism?
Yea, I don’t get what you are trying to say either. Where did the 5 year thing come from? Are you saying that in less then 5 years that “non-catholics” are going to have a conversion to the Catholic Church?
I disagree and didn’t vote because, (as you can see below) some will never do so and I believe that is the more likely answer.
Here again, I disagree, and I would know since I am one who made your same mistake and have returned to the Catholic faith. In fact, it was the anti-Catholic attacks I read and heard that actually served to get me looking into these things and ultimately led me home to our most holy faith. You can read about that “reversion” in My Testimony and see some of what I have learned on my Catholic blog, Apocalypsis
What’s wrong with the teachings of the Catholic Church?
Conversion to Catholicism.
Change their teaching on justification, the doctrine of the Mass, the invocation of saints, and the papacy and I’ll gladly join Rome tomorrow.
I rest my case…
Nope. Do you have some Biblical reference that someone says means that?
If God told you to bow down and worship him would you tell him only if I can do it my way? That is pride my friend, and not a healthy pride. Jesus directed the apostles exactly how he wanted his church set up and they did… it is called the Catholic Church and has been called that since the second century…
I am sorry that you feel I am doing it my way. I won’t argue that point with you because it’s a presupposition I will not accept.
I recall reading it myself at some point. I don’t recall the place in the bible. So, either I imagined it or I read it wrong.
No need to be embarrassed my friend. That was not my intent at all. Any idea where you saw it because I’d like to see it myself? What translation are you using and we may be able to search and find it?I recall reading it myself at some point. I don’t recall the place in the bible. So, either I imagined it or I read it wrong.
I guess there wont be any mass conversions on the horizon then.
That’s ok - you will be Catholic before you can enter heaven, so I’m not too worried about what you think about it now.
