Saddened by a website

[Pax_Vobiscum_57]

Sweetie, STAY AWAY from those websites. They are all over the place, they are almost every single one of them wrong about some very basic things, and the saddest part is, many of them are aware that they are presenting misinformation, but think that ‘lying for Jesus’ is a good thing.

They aren’t good for you. You know what your beliefs are. Hold to your faith in them and don’t let the cretins get you.

^^This.

And you are wise in the Holy Spirit, to know enough to come here & ask. :hug1:

I have answered yours, now I have one for you.

The scripture tells the following parable.

Then drew near unto him all the publicans and sinners for to hear him. And the Pharisees and scribes murmured, saying, This man receiveth sinners, and eateth with them.

And he spake this parable unto them, saying, What man of you, having an hundred sheep, if he lose one of them, doth not leave the ninety and nine in the wilderness, and go after that which is lost, until he find it? And when he hath found it, he layeth it on his shoulders, rejoicing. And when he cometh home, he calleth together his friends and neighbours, saying unto them, Rejoice with me; for I have found my sheep which was lost. I say unto you, that likewise joy shall be in heaven over one sinner that repenteth, more than over ninety and nine just persons, which need no repentance.

My question is this:

Why did you not rejoice along with our Lord and those in heaven when I casted the pearl before you? Instead, why did you move to ask me more direct questions. Could it be that you aren’t a friend and neighbor?

Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto a merchant man, seeking goodly pearls:
Who, when he had found one pearl of great price, went and sold all that he had, and bought it.

how easy for anyone to pick up a Bible and begin to quote verses, not knowing what they really mean.

any one can read the Bible. but do they know the meaning of the Word?

 

[greggy53]

Exactly. All I get from this guy is ignorance and arrogance.

 

[Nine_Two]

I just reported him for that last post, but made mention of his past posts in the report including the place where I accused him of calling us idol worshippers, and his response of not denying it, but telling us all to repent. This has gone on long enough.

 

[greggy53]

You know, this debate leads me to think of those that Jesus had with the Pharisees. His words were always from the heart . They on the otherhand were always trying to catch Him in a trap.

The above post of his tells us where he is coming from…Self-righteousness, and arrogance. In the above comparison he is Jesus, and we are the doomed Pharisees. Sadly, he is self-consumed with his own piety while he talks down to us ignorant and hapless Catholic heathens.

So you bait him and then report him, mighty fine fella you are.

 

[Hisalone]

That’s news to me. I’m a Catholic and I didn’t think I was in denial about anything. If its all the same to you, I think I’ll follow my Church’s 2000 years of teaching and Tradition instead of your arbitrary judgement. I’m sorry if I’m being harsh, but I’m sick of these types of criticisms.

Of course people in denial dont think they are. You are not who you say you are. What do you say you are? You say you are The One True Church. You are not.

 

[Rocket_Man]

I have answered everyone of your questions. They just weren’t the answers you were waiting to hear. Does it sadden you that your unable to say: “See See, He has a devil!”

Paul also writes:

Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, and Timotheus our brother, To the saints and faithful brethren in Christ which are at Colosse: Grace be unto you, and peace, from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. We give thanks to God and the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, praying always for you, Since we heard of your faith in Christ Jesus, and of the love which ye have to all the saints,

So back to my question that you have yet to answer. Why did you not rejoice like the Lord, all the hosts in heaven, friends and neighbors of our Lord, those like St. Paul and Timothy after you heard of my repentance and turn to faith in Jesus Christ? Instead you were more concerned to continue your line of direct questions.

I never baited him into saying anything. The only one who’s baited anyone in this thread is you.

No snitching!!!

BTW I never baited you. I used your very words to disprove your position.

I’m not sure when you did that, but I was refering to your accusations of baiting as baiting.

St. Paul also writes:

This is a faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners;

Why is it, if central to His mission was to save sinners, do you not also share His mission with your rejoicing when He finds one of his lost sheep? Why don’t you just come out and say it?

I belong …to the One True Church for 75 years and please show me why you think I,m in denial Mt 16:18-19

If you read your Bible you will see Jesus Christ build one Church,I will build MY CHURCH,Church is ONE not many

Have any evidence to support your charge that catholics do not rejoice when Jesus finds a lost sheep? Anything?

I don’t have anything more than my testimony. I believe that those who are one with Christ would rejoice when Jesus finds a lost sheep. Don’t you?

 

[Steven_John]

Of course they dont.
But this we know.
Muslims pray 5 times a day facing the Kabaa
During the Hajj muslims circle around the Hajj bowing down rising up to just get a touch so their sins will be cleansed.

That connects to my post, how?
You only state what i offered that it is act of veneration not worship

 

[Nine_Two]

So part of your testimony is “knowing” what everyone else thinks and feels? If that’s not the hight of arrogance, I don’t know what is.

For the record I do rejoice when the Lost Sheep return. Just last week we received a new catechumen and I couldn’t have been happier.

My testimony is on page 27 and some portions on earlier pages of this forum. I do not know what “everyone else thinks and feels” and I never claimed such nonsense. I do however know how you and some of those who read my testimony rejoiced, because I personally experienced them through their continued allegations and challenges.
