    Restrictions, rules, laws for being a Christian.

    Once again, RCs and Protestants believe that. While RCs and most Protestants believe that...I ask you...could you give me a reference on that one? Except for the predestined part (which is not believed by a lot of Christians IMNSHO), RCs and other protestants believe that too. AlSo, what if...

    Restrictions, rules, laws for being a Christian.

    When I read it in context (NIV), verse 11 seems to indicate that 9-10 are speaking of people before being saved, not after. 1 COR 6:9-11 Tell me how 11 makes it otherwise. I see nothing saying anything about "true Christians" here. As for good works...I thought it was refuted elsewhere...

    Restrictions, rules, laws for being a Christian.

    So Leo is saved. 1. thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus Check (BTW, a cynical atheist I know has used this to claim a mute may not be saved). 2. shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead Check again. 3. thou shalt be saved. Looks like he got it.

    Restrictions, rules, laws for being a Christian.

    OK, but didn't Jesus say that the only 2 (so to speak) were to love God and love your neighbor? So why would a Roman Catholic not be saved? Also, the 10 Cs are different in Judism than (Protestant) Christianity.

    Virgin Mary

    Since this thread has wandered so far away anyway... Hypo for y'all: Why is homosexual sex a sin? (and don't use the fornication excuse. Hetrosexual sex (in marriage) is not a sin, right? So, if gays were married, would that not make it a sin in that respect.) I am serious. And I do know...

    Catholic Miracles

    Please forgive me, I am going to play devil's advocate here. When you pray to Jesus, you are not praying to Jehovah (God the Father). Thus, you are worshiping Jesus, and not Jehovah. How is that different than asking Mary to ask Jesus to ask Jehovah for something? (Feel free to make some...

    Catholic Miracles

    Couple of questions for you, if you don't mind: 1. Are there any translations of the Bible that are inerrant today? 2. If not, how do we know what was actually written? 3. Inerrant means no errors...no matter how stupid and inconsequential, an error is an error. Agreed? 4. As an example, if...
