Signs of more persecution?

True. In faith we still have god. This no one can take away from us.

Many people misunderstood and said that we worship, in fact not we just pray to her for her intercession. Hope this clears things up:)

Here's a good reading for FAQ on this: http://www.catholicdoors.com/faq/qu67.htm

1. That's a practise and let's say just to remember the events of lent. Seems that you took the words literally. God is still god.

2. refer to my previous post

3. Well people often refer to him as the holiest in the catholics, but we don't worship him............. remember 1st commandment.

4. This we believe that Jesus Christ works in the person of a priest that's why. Same goes to other works done by pastors etc. Jesus works through people. But we are the ones who should repent and change ourself.

Also for those confused with catholics belief maybe this can help: http://www.catholicscomehome.org/ click Answering Your Questions and browse around there.

Amen all in all we are one in Christ Jesus.

That's why we say beware of those who preach the 'gospel of wealth'.

You can have all the money, but there are those who've obtained it illegally/etc yet they feel proud?

All this physical/earthly things you cannot bring with you when you die..

I know some people who are saying it's ok because it's just a minor thing not a sin being commited...

When I read 'Everyday With Jesus' 3 days ago there's an interesting part:
"To ignore the reality of sin is dishonest. To tamper with labels and call a serious thing by a light name is utter foolishness. We don't make a deadly thing innocuous by giving it a different name.
Poison is still poison - no matter what label we give it."



Another topic:
I remember a 'church' who went house by house, so I listened to them, basically they picked this verse that says something like no matter we do good or evil, we go nowhere. So they kept telling me, I must have been always exposed to the teachings that doing good will lead you to kingdom of god and doing evil will lead you to hell. So they told me you won't go anywhere, doesn't matter good/evil. The I just kept on nodding trying to get rid of them lol.


Correct me if i'm wrong, of course when we die we don't go anywhere yet, until Jesus comes again to judge the living and the dead. So this is an example of people who uses verses of bible to influence is a wrong way? They don't tell you the whole context/story. Only use the literal verses.
