@Faith_is_Works Come on dude…

God the Father and his son Jesus Christ appeared to Joseph Smith. I'll defend his character to my grave.

@ChadTheBad Whatever you do, don’t get the free Book of Mormon from their website; not even for research or apologetics purposes. It’s a trap.

never doing that again

@TennesseeGirl @DissidentWire The funniest part is that the most wealthy Africans from America started enslaving their own people as soon as they got there.

@DissidentWire They'll need a better plan

Rapper Akon says his goal is to “get as many African Americans back home to Africa” as possible. Follow: @DissidentWire

@LizzieMarbach The person you’re quoting is most likely a fake catholic or a very new one. That’s not catholic teaching at all.

As I said: this is necromancy. ⬇️🤷🏼‍♀️

@ybobbjr Mormons: “Don’t call us mormonsssssss 😭”. Joseph Smith: You’re a Mormon 🙂

And I, too

1. The practice of asking for intercessory prayers can be found even before Christ. Jews would make pilgrimages to the tombs of the patriarchs and ask for their prayers. 2. We don’t believe this is the highest form of worship, brother. It’s simply asking a righteous person to pray for you. 3. Jesus is the only mediator of our salvation, but every Christian becomes an intercessor when praying for others. 4. The Bible does instruct us to intercede in prayer for one another. Again, for us, physical death does not mean a complete breaking of communion within Christ’s body of believers. I promise there’s absolutely nothing wrong with saying, “St. Charbel pray for us.” It’s simply an expression of love and communion between brothers and sisters in Christ.

Let me try to break this down. 1. This is all dependent on your church’s teachings, most of them much later than the fourth-century establishment of your institution. 2. None of this is prescribed in the Bible, and if you consider the command for one mediator and prayer being the highest form of worship, this is actually forbidden. 3. You don’t text message them, you don’t email them, you don’t speak to them directly; you pray to them. You ask them to intercede for you. Your church literally calls Mary a mediator, where God says that only Jesus is a mediator. So this is not a misunderstanding on my part. I believe it is more of a misunderstanding on your behalf about what your church is actually instructing you to do and the potential blasphemy involved. 4. Certainly, the Holy Spirit didn’t leave out these instructions in the Bible.

Another Catholic bites the dust. These people are relentless cowards who get triggered when asked to prove anything. “We just ask Mary and the saints to pray for us.” OK, do you email them? Call them? Text? WhatsApp? “No, we just talk to them like normal people in heaven.” “Yeah.” OK, that’s praying. You pray to Mary as a mediator. It’s forbidden in Scripture. You replace Christ with Mary or saints or dead grandmas. Insane. But they can’t admit prayer is worship despite countless popes saying it is the highest form. There is nothing Christ-like about any of these Catholic larpers here.

@realDrTT Basically a bait and switch. They lure people in with “We just love Jesus”, and after you’re in BOOM they hit you with celestial sex, heavenly babies, planet Kolob, secret handshakes and perpetual tithing,

LDS friends? Is this true?

Jesús no era asquenazí. Jesús no era sefardí. Jesús no era talmúdico. Jesús no era sionista. La lengua materna de Jesús era el arameo, no el hebreo moderno. Jesús creció en Galilea, tierra de los gentiles, no en Judea, tierra de los judíos. Jesús, según la carne, proviene de la tribu de Judá —era un judaita—, no un edomita convertido al judaísmo rabínico, como la clase gobernante en Jerusalén y como los judíos actuales. Los judíos de hoy no tienen absolutamente ninguna relación —étnica, y mucho menos espiritual— con Jesús de Nazaret. No pueden reclamarlo como suyo. Jesús de Nazaret pertenece a los mansos de la tierra, a aquellos que no se jactan de la grandeza de su etnia, sino en la sencillez de su fe. Jesús pertenece a los pobres, a los débiles, a los despreciados, a los mutilados y a los masacrados bajo los escombros; no a la falsa élite religiosa que los asesina en «nombre de ser la raza elegida de Dios». Entienda quien pueda ...

Sure man thanks for asking, we’re just having a conversation. My point is that asking the saints to pray for you doesn’t seem as crazy as people think it is when you look at it from this perspective: as Catholics, we believe that all believers form one body, called the Church, and that there is no separation in communion after physical death. The Body of Christ is not split between some members on earth and others in heaven, it’s just one. Now, the saints in heaven experience something called the “Beatific Vision,” which are fancy words to describe that they are in the direct presence of God and they see God face to face, they share in His truth and knowledge in a way that is impossible for us in this life because our bodies are limited. They are not gods, and they are not all-knowing, but God can make them aware of whatever He wants them to know. So if God can make the angels aware of things happening on earth, there is no reason He could not also make the saints aware of our prayers. That’s why asking for their intercession is not nearly as strange as it may seem at first.

Maybe you can just make your point? I’m not going to research your point for you. But if you want to snag a section or summary here, I’ll read it. What is your point? Let’s start there and then source it after. How does this apply to Catholics playing games, being deceptive, burden shifting, ad hominems, and then running from answering for their faith?

@Nu_Ny0 @dominicptaranto We literally have the bones of Polycarp of Smyrna from the year 150 AD. We have plenty of actual archeological evidence.

@chadpostolico @dominicptaranto Imagine pretending to be Catholic and then demanding evidence for faith claims.

I’ve never come across intellectually honest Mormon apologists. Probably because their religion is so insane that the second they become intellectually honest they leave it.

I didn’t say I don’t understand it; I said that St. Thomas Aquinas can explain it more eloquently than I can. Just read what he has to say about the ''Beatific Vision'' and how a soul that is in the presence of God and sees Him face to face becomes a participant in His infinite knowledge.

@chadpostolico So you don’t understand it, can’t explain it, wanted to mention it, but you want me to appeal to a man-made religion’s authority and trust it? Let’s just use God’s Word like the apostles prescribed for testing teachings.

Si esa respuestra es insatisfactoria, en ese caso bro, lee la Declaración Conjunta sobre la Doctrina de la Justificación, firmada por la Iglesia Católica y la Federación Luterana Mundial en un acto de ecumenismo. Así, lo que lees es algo formal, declarado por ambas iglesias, y no simplemente la opinión de alguien: christianunity.va/content/unitac…

@chadpostolico Esto me dijo un católico romano:

La cruz ✝️ es nuestra justificación. Cuando el católico romano entiende esto, abandona su Iglesia, puesto que allí le enseñan que su justificación es un proceso donde aumenta su justicia por medio de las obras. ¿Cuál es el problema con esta doctrina heretica? Que, al final, depende del hombre y no de lo que Cristo hizo en la cruz en favor de los pecadores. “Por lo tanto, ya que fuimos hechos justos a los ojos de Dios por medio de la fe, tenemos paz con Dios gracias a lo que Jesucristo nuestro Señor hizo por nosotros.” Romanos 5:1

My point is that everything you claim the Book of Mormon does, the Bible had already done. No one was asking for extra confirmation that Jesus is the Christ. For 1,800 years, the Church had been preaching the Gospel and bearing witness to Him. When the New World was discovered, missionaries crossed the ocean to bring Christ to its people because they already believed they had the fullness of the Gospel.

@chadpostolico What’s your point?

The Book of Mormon itself repeatedly states that its purpose is to: Testify that Jesus is the Christ. Confirm the Bible. Convince people to believe in Jesus. Serve as a second witness alongside existing scripture. Consider: "And the words of the Nephites... and the Jews shall have the words of the Nephites... for there are many nations and I shall speak unto them... and they shall write it." — Book of Mormon

@Sola_GPT @dominicptaranto Do you believe in more than one God yes or no?

@dominicptaranto x.com/Sola_GPT/statu…

Duh?

@Primary_Pianist Mormonians aren't Christians because of their Christology. Period.

Evangelical: Mormons aren’t Christians. Mormon: Why not? Evangelical: Because Christians believe in Jesus. Mormon: I believe in Jesus. Evangelical: Not that Jesus. Mormon: Which Jesus? Evangelical: The biblical one. Mormon: The Son of God who died for sins and rose again? Evangelical: Yes. Mormon: That’s the one I believe in. Evangelical: Then why are you Mormon? Mormon: Why are you Baptist? Evangelical: Because I interpret the Bible differently. Mormon: … Evangelical: … Mormon: We’re getting warmer.

@CovenantReform2 @5Solas He talks about ''the law''. Are we still under the law? Also, you know he was a Catholic right? His bishop was Demetrius of Alexandria under pope Zephyrinus.

@chadpostolico @5Solas

Where does scripture explicitly command us to baptize people who make no profession of faith whatsoever? I'll wait.

@ManassehRJones Jesus would be pleased for us to ask our brothers and sisters in heaven to pray for us, because the family of Christ is not divided by death but remains united as one body through the Holy Spirit.

Imagine Christ making you an utterly new creature. Birthing you from above by putting His Spirit in you. You are no longer you, but rather you live only by the faith of Jesus Christ, the Son of God, who now owns every aspect of your life according to the Fathers will. Now, imagine Christ in you telling you to: Pray to Mary Pray to the spirits of dead men, hopefully alive in heaven. Pray to the mountains, birds, wind, and sea. Imagine that, and what you've just described is the unregenerate, idol worshipping, Babylonian man-made religions of Orthodox and Roman Catholicism. Real time, real life, Pegan idolotry masquerading as replacement theology over...."Christ in you." Get out from amongst these biblically defined reprobated idol worshipping temples, you beloved elect of God. You do not want to be found in them when the Tribulation comes. Seek Truth from God in His Holy Writ alone, through prayer and fasting, and pray He fill your lamp up with oil with His Spirit, so you are not found wanting in those days. Jesus Christ is LORD, He is not found through deeds, but is received through putting to death the false gospels and doctrines of devils taught by these unregenerates.

@ManassehRJones You could be an absolute unit of an orthodox or catholic and experience the fullness of the faith.

There is only one reason I am not an unregenerated, praying through postcards to the spirits of men in the afterlife...Orthodox degenerate. God's Sovereign Grace.
