Which Church??

[eazyduzit]

Yes, the glory of Christ alone is every Christians sole motivation, or at least it should be. Moreover, it is through Jesus’ mystical Body the Church, that He imparts life-transforming/saving grace to the members of His Body, of which Jesus is the Head and Savior. Jesus and His church are one and the same, inextricably/eternally bound, wouldn’t you agree?

“For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith–and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God-…”

Yes, agreed, and a big Pentecostal amen!

But as much as we agree on the fundamentals, the primacy of Peter and his claimed ability to never ere will remain a stumbling block.

Just to push for 1004 and to say Amen Joe!

“The glory of Christ alone is my sole motivation.” - ZZ912

Does this now prove I’m not in a cult?

Is the Church the pillar and foundation of truth?

Sorry, not my intention to make you a cult member.

And I agree that the church is the pillar and foundation of the truth, that is, its purpose being to hold-up or lift-up “the truth” who is a person, Jesus Christ.

Could you agree with that?

Eric-

I do have a question…just out of curiosity, what is the thinking behind the 1,000 post limit in a thread.

I understand that many threads are hopelessly off topic after only a few posts and that it’s even more likely after 1,000, but why cut it off on those occasions when the discussion is still on point and vibrant?

Is there a TECHNICAL reason for the limit?

Stop. Do not “wake” him up and end all this fun.

Catholics would state the there are those that stumble more than others, not even agreeing on the fundamentals of what Christ taught to the apostles and what the apostles taught to their descendants. To name a few:

• Sacramental Baptism
• The Real Presence of Christ in the Eucharist
• Sacrament of Reconciliation
• Guarding both what is written and spoken (Scripture and Tradition)
• Salvation by Grace, Through Faith, Working in Love.
• The establishment of a visible Church and Christ’s promise to lead the Church (singular) to all Truth until the end of time.

If it were up to me you can could take this thread to infinity and beyond. But even I have to follow the rules.
Great discussion guys.
