Pray!

Hi Calvin,

You said to Lutero:

You make interesting observations. See my take below:(i) Catholic Church is self-ordained Representative of God on earth, so they can do as they please even by making God a liar.

1. It is you and the Protestants which are self ordained. God has not appointed you to speak on His behalf. In fact, the Protestant revolution is prophecies by St. Paul (2 Timothy 4:3).

make God a liar.

Again, you have provided no substantiation for your doctrines from Scripture. Therefore, they are false doctrines. Yet you claim they are taught by God and thus call God a liar.

(ii) They want show they gave us the Bible,

The Catholic Church wrote the New Testament and canonized the Old and the New in the Bible. True.

even to the extent of stealing others literary works.

No idea what that means. Unless you are referring to the fact that the Protestants took 7 books out of the Old Testament.

And to show the Catechism is much superior than the Bible.

No one ever said that. In fact, the Catholic Church teaches that the Bible is the Word of God and inerrant. Whereas the same claims are not made of the Catechism.

(iii) Catholicism along the years embarrassed converts and along with them came their custom traditions (statues/graven images). So how to accommodate them? Well they simply on the quite, modify God’s Holy Word to accommodate the pagans, despite warnings of Revelations 22:18 .

It is the Protestants which have added to and taken from the Word of God. And it is the Protestants which must pay for that crime before God.

Sincerely,

De Maria
