@ArchangeloRom @ScottRoberts This is why Luther is so mad about the book of James 😂

Every religion teaches that you must do something to earn salvation - except one. Salvation by Works, Rules, or Rituals: • Islam • Hinduism • Buddhism • Sikhism • Judaism (Rabbinic) • Jehovah's Witnesses • Mormonism • Roman Catholicism (official doctrine) • Paganism / New Age Salvation by Grace Alone: • Biblical Christianity Only the Gospel of Jesus Christ says, "It is finished." (John 19:30) You don't earn it - you receive it. Turn and trust in Jesus Christ today.

@DeepValueBagger @GaryColeman5640 I think he was just trying to explain the traditional Catholic and Christian views like those from John chapter 6. His profile picture is of Pope Benedict XVI holding up the Holy Host.

@GaryColeman5640 Explain

Any influencer posting $BYND on its rise was just engaging farming. If you noticed, I did not speak about it. I'm not here to earn X bucks. I'm here to reduce the noise, and increase the signal.

@MrOmega5474 @SecretFire79 Islam

@SecretFire79 What heresy is this?

Not everyone who calls themself “Christian,” actually is…

@GodlyAction The Israeli government is not Israel itself. Where was Israel for the couple hundred years after the Jews got kicked out of Israel? I’m not saying the Palestinians or the Jews are right, it’s just silly to say something like this

The Bible is clear: Israel remains until Jesus returns.

@OpStCyprian @las_hispanias @crusader_7 It doesn’t have to be binding, it just has to be in there to know that a large enough group of (religious) Jews believe Jesus is a fraud and in hell

@las_hispanias @crusader_7 It’s extremely important but it, by what it is, contains a collection of various sometimes different opinions and not everything is binding due to that. Also very few Jews are Orthodox

No Jew has actually told you that either

@ArchangeloRom @conservmillen The funny thing is the “ex-Catholics” do the same thing and misrepresent things like Dulia

“I grew up evangelical. I know EXACTLY how they think.” Then proceeds to spew the most inaccurate, illogical, Biblically illiterate take you’ve heard in your life

@NickDiFabio1 This is strange to say the least. The Council of Trent affirmed a 73 book canon in the mid 1500s. To say that in the 1600s or 1800s the Vatican removed books is just insane. You might need a brain scan bro

They removed 14 books from your Bible in 1684. The Lost Books of the Apocrypha. Most Christians don't even know they existed... But religious leaders fought to keep them hidden. Here's the shocking truth about the forbidden books they didn't want you to read:

@charlestingler Death

@ThomasITK421 @SecretFire79 No. They don't believe in the Trinity, they believe in false revelation, and they think they will become gods. They are strange

@SecretFire79 Do they even qualify as Christian?

lol k🤡

@JtheFree @catholicpat It’s almost like he cooperated with God’s grace…

It’s funny Protestants continue with this example not realizing it actually defeats their argument. If it was by faith alone that the thief was saved then he only needed to say it in his mind and not openly. The fact that the thief openly rebuked the other man crucified and then admitted Jesus is the Lord and did not deserve death and also begged him to remember him, that’s all works.

The Thief on the Cross has: • Never plucked a rooster • Was not too good at ping-pong • Never thrown his mashed potatoes up against the wall • Never kissed a chipmunk • Never gotten head lice • Never been to Boston in the fall That man did not do ANYTHING

There is no way you just quoted Ignatius and said he didn't believe that the Eucharist is the body and blood of Jesus Christ. Letter to the Smyrnaeans Chapter 7 "They abstain from the Eucharist and from prayer, because they confess not the Eucharist to be the flesh of our Saviour Jesus Christ, which suffered for our sins, and which the Father, of His goodness, raised up again. Those, therefore, who speak against this gift of God, incur death in the midst of their disputes." He is directly criticizing the Christians that you may be referencing. If you want to make an argument for a symbolic Eucharist, go ahead and try, but don't try to use Ignatius of Antioch for your argument, because he is not gonna help you.

Multiple early Christians described the elements of the Lord’s supper as symbols of Christs body and blood with ZERO pushback. Referring to symbols as what they represent is normal to do. When people like Ignatius refer to the bread as “the body that suffered for our sins” he is simply referring to the symbol as what it symbolizes. Tertullian directly calls the elements symbols.

As a Protestant who actually studies church history, it's disappointing to see how many Catholics still believe the lies their church spoon-feeds them. Not because it's hard to find the truth, but because it's easier to stay comfortable than to question what you've been told.

@BibleInContext1 Hebrews 12:1

🚩CATHOLICS: There is not a single Bible passage that clearly teaches or even hints to the idea that individual people in heaven can hear individuals on earth or even intercede specifically for those individuals. It’s not there!

Well, there is a reason that God didn't want to just "spawn in," so to speak. In order to become Man, he had to go through Mary so he could be fully Man. Because she voluntarily assumed the role of the Mother of God, she is a necessary part of the incarnation and our subsequent redemption. Along with other things that Stella mentioned, you get the idea of Mary as the Co-Redemptrix.

@CustosX @MasonThibodeau0 @BreeSolstad It’s not offensive to me but I really don’t believe it. She is certainly a mediator with Christ and is certainly a path to Him. She always points to Him but nowhere does it say we need the Blessed Mother or we can’t have salvation. I agree she is very helpful not necessary.

Mary is the Co-Redemptrix of all people. She doesn't just distribute the fruits of the redemption won by her Son. She is by God's will an instrument in the work of redemption itself. No, Mary, no salvation. No Mary, no heaven. (Though her role in the work of salvation is secondary and finite, limited.) She's a creature. And though her role is utterly dependent upon Christ, Our Lady is truly part of the actual work of salvation itself. “May Mary our Protectress, the Co-redemptrix, to whom we offer our prayer with great outpouring, make our desire generously correspond to the desire of the Redeemer." -Pope St. John Paul II "Mary cooperated in our redemption in such a way that our salvation flowed from the love of Christ and His sufferings intimately joined with the love and sorrows of His mother" Pope Pius XII "She renounced her mother's rights for the salvation of mankind and, as far as it depended on her, offered her Son to placate divine justice; so we may say that with Christ she redeemed mankind." -Pope Benedict XV "From the nature of His work, the Redeemer ought to have associated His mother with His work, new Adam and a new Eve, just like the old Adam, the old Eve. For this reason we invoke her under the title Co-Redemptrix. She gave us the Savior. She accompanied Him in the work of redemption. And as far as the cross itself, she went to Calvary with Him every step of the way. Sharing with him, the sorrows of the agony and of the death in which Jesus consummated the redemption of mankind.” -Pope Pius XI "Holy Redemptrix of the world, pray for us." -10th Century French hymn St. Francis Cabrini, St. Theresa Benedicta of the Cross, Maximilian Kolbe and Saint Padre Pio of Pietrelcina, among others all refer to her as Co-Redemptrix. “All the Fathers of the Church say clearly that She (Mary) is co-redemptrix with Christ in the work or our salvation.” -St. John Eudes Note: The word Co means "with" in Latin. The significance of Mary sorrows are only effective when united WITH Christ's passion and death.

Right, but what I mean is she voluntarily submitted to God to become a tool of the Lord so we could be redeemed. Her active participation is distinguished from the participation of the Saints, who are also conduits of God's grace, but have lived sinful lives where they have rejected God at one point or another, whereas Mary didn't.

I could be wrong, but you might be misunderstanding what Co-redemptrix means? It's not about Our Lady mediating (mediatrix)or distributing graces (dispensatorix) ...it's about her participating in our Redemption; not in an equal way to Christ obviously, as He is God, but in a co-operative manner. Her incredible suffering and martyrdom at the foot of the cross, together with her titles as Mother of God and Spouse of the Holy Spirit enable her to become Co-redemptrix. Right now in the Church we are at the stage of defending this title of Our Lady before it is defined. Much like how the Dogma of the Immaculate conception was defended prior to the definition in 1854

@HGreen6693 @CustosX @BreeSolstad Interesting, but that isn't a problem with the idea, but the stupidity of some people

@CustosX @BreeSolstad Interesting. It makes sense though that the saints are conduits by which God doles out his love, and Mary to a higher degree.

@MasonThibodeau0 @BreeSolstad Some Catholics don't like the title Co-redemptrix as its not a defined dogma. The Franciscans have generally championed it while some Thomists and Dominicans are against it. There was also someone recently who claimed that several recent popes were against it.

@FlameSouthern @SecretFire79 @orthodoxluigi It was a joke. It was as if i wanted your social security number and was goading you into giving it to me lol

@MasonThibodeau0 @SecretFire79 @orthodoxluigi Why, for all things Holy and unholy in all of creation, would I give you my SSN?

Luigi, was in fact, a Marine. I was wrong. @orthodoxluigi

@FlameSouthern @SecretFire79 @orthodoxluigi Awful convenient you can dish out these words but won’t give me your social security number

@SecretFire79 @orthodoxluigi Marines were part of the navy and the navy is gay therefore marines are gay

@MrCasey62 He did guide the canon though… Just through the Church!

Totally made up. NOWHERE in the Bible did God say “Make sure these books & no others get into the Bible.” NOWHERE in the Early Church did God appear in vision & say “Make sure these books & no others get into the Bible.” Books were being debated into the 300s. The CHURCH decided.

@ImTheRealKayden It’s false revelation, meaning you have committed a grave sin by believing in a false prophet and splitting away from the true Church.

Apparently it’s “not Christian” to declare Christ as the Eternal God.
