Protestants! Read all of Scripture! Scripture doesn't contradict Itself!


PG:Heb 13:12 Wherefore Jesus also, that he might sanctify the people with his own blood, suffered without the gate.
Heb 13:13 Let us go forth therefore unto him without the camp, bearing his reproach.
Heb 13:14 For here have we no continuing city, but we seek one to come.
Yea. Did you not read in Scripture?

Hebrews 10:25-31

King James Version (KJV)

25 Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching.
26 For if we sin wilfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins,
27 But a certain fearful looking for of judgment and fiery indignation, which shall devour the adversaries.
28 He that despised Moses' law died without mercy under two or three witnesses:
29 Of how much sorer punishment, suppose ye, shall he be thought worthy, who hath trodden under foot the Son of God, and hath counted the blood of the covenant, wherewith he was sanctified, an unholy thing, and hath done despite unto the Spirit of grace?
30 For we know him that hath said, Vengeance belongeth unto me, I will recompense, saith the Lord. And again, The Lord shall judge his people.
31 It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.


This is where you find Jesus. In the Eucharist. If you reject Him there, you bring upon yourself your condemnation:
1 Corinthians 11:29-30

King James Version (KJV)

29 For he that eateth and drinketh unworthily, eateth and drinketh damnation to himself, not discerning the Lord's body.
30 For this cause many are weak and sickly among you, and many sleep.

Sincerely,

De Maria

    1. Very true. Nor, in my opinion, do they understand any Scripture which they read. Because they interpret Scripture through the lens of their erroneous traditions.

    2. Mark,

      I read every Scripture and I am not joining the Babylonian whore any time soon!

    3. Well Anonymous

      I'm glad to hear that you're not joining the Babylonian whore any time soon. Last I heard, prostitution was immoral. Also, it isn't very kind to speak of women like that. You really should read Scripture and learn how to act.

      You evidently have problems with "truth" since you can't even use a real name. LOL! Typical anti-Catholic bigot. Has to hide behind lies because they can't stand reality.

  2. Hello Russell,

    As I have said many times in this blog and elsewhere, the context in James chapter 2 is NOT the same as in Romans 3, 4, and 5. Paul and James are not contradicting each other. James is about proving or demonstrating the veracity of one’s faith, while Romans is about how to become justified (or righteous in the eyes of God). See Part 2 of this series here:

    http://answeringcatholicclaims.blogspot.com/2010/01/faith-alone-part-2.html

    By the way, believing in Sola Fide (Faith Alone) is NOT being “lazy.” You have misrepresented me before, and you are doing it again. Nowhere have I suggested that Christians are to stay away from doing good works. Once again, God certainly WANTS us to do them. But the issue is that they DO NOT SAVE US. Only by His blood are we saved.

    You also attempted to use Matthew 7:21 (“Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the Kingdom of Heaven…”) to promote a works-based salvation, but please read the context! It is very similar to the context of James 2… it’s not about how to get saved, but about how to tell a real Christian from a fake. The true Christians will be producing fruit (good works) because good works are a RESULT of his salvation, not the cause.

    Concerning “works” and “works of the Law,” see here:

    http://answeringcatholicclaims.blogspot.com/2010/08/sola-fide-revisited.html

    http://answeringcatholicclaims.blogspot.com/2010/01/faith-alone-part-2.html

    You said:

    “You are the one who is obviously misinterpreting the Holy Scriptures. Romans 4:6-8 crushes Calvinism (Faith Alone). Period."

    I’ll say it again, I am NOT a Calvinist, and believing in Faith Alone does not MAKE one a Calvinist. Besides, Romans 4:6-8 certainly does not “crush” the biblical doctrine of Faith Alone, since Paul is saying in this very context that “God reckons righteousness APART FROM WORKS” (v. 6). Remember, he applies this to Abraham, but Abraham was not under the Mosaic Law, so your argument does not hold.

    Concerning baptismal regeneration, see here:

    http://answeringcatholicclaims.blogspot.com/2015/05/on-baptism-part-1-few-basics.html

    http://answeringcatholicclaims.blogspot.com/2015/06/on-baptism-part-2-bible-verses.html

    http://answeringcatholicclaims.blogspot.com/2015/07/on-baptism-part-3-more-verses.html

    One last thing. You said:

    “However, you have to earn that gift of salvation by good deeds.”

    But if it’s a gift, it can’t be earned; and if it is earned, it can’t be a gift.

    I hope that you will visit my blog and comment on these articles soon!

    In His name,
    Russell
