The Catholic position on Redemption

DeMaria,
Thanks for trying to answer, but I don’t think those verses really applied to what I was asking. I was hoping someone could explain from the Catholic position how we are all objectively redeemed (the price has been paid and satisfaction has been made) and what that entails, how it differs from subjectively applied redemption, and how satisfaction has been made but somehow not all men are under that satisfaction. As well as if the distinction between sufficient and efficacious grace plays into this.

I think Jason has hit the nail on the head. I gave you the Catholic position but you didn’t recognize it because you are looking at it from a Protestant perspective.

Christ died in order that all mankind might be redeemed. But some men rejected their redemption. Only those who cooperated with the grace of God have applied the grace of redemption to their souls and will be saved.

2 Cor 5:15 And that he died for all, that they which live should not henceforth live unto themselves, but unto him which died for them, and rose again.

16 Wherefore henceforth know we no man after the flesh: yea, though we have known Christ after the flesh, yet now henceforth know we him no more.

Christ died for all so that some might be saved. Those who are saved are those who obey God, those who keep the Commandments.

Hebrews 5:9
And being made perfect, he became the author of eternal salvation unto all them that obey him;

Sincerely,

De Maria

Christ is our Passover, as Scripture clearly tells us.

Lutero:

With all due respect, you are showing me nothing except your desperate attempt to fit a square peg into a round hole.
Revelation 5:5 tells us, the Lamb, "the Lion of the tribe of Judah, has triumphed". That is why He alone is worthy to open the scroll. The Lord Jesus died for our sins and God has accepted Calvary as full payment for our redemption. You should also.
Do you not recall what scripture says, that before He was crucified, Jesus, when praying to His Father, said “I have brought you glory on earth bycompleting the work you gave me to do”. And at the cross, our dear savior, before giving up His Spirit, said “It is finished”.

What's finished, redemption? Then you are left out.

Yet here you are, willfully editing the infallible word of God, equating the bloodless sacrifice of your Church’s pagan ritual to the worship given to God in heaven. All because you value the teachings of the Roman Catholic Church over the infallible word of God. Repent before it's too late.

On the contrary, it is you. Christ is our Passover, as Scripture clearly tells us. And Scripture shows us that He continually offers Himself to the Father in our behalf. All you have to do is read the Scriptures with spiritual discernment:

1 Corinthians 2:14
But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.
Why would the Lamb be standing in heaven as though slain unless Christ is offering Himself to the Father?

Revelation 5:6

King James Version (KJV)
⁶ And I beheld, and, lo, in the midst of the throne and of the four beasts, and in the midst of the elders, stood a Lamb as it had been slain, having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God sent forth into all the earth.

Sincerely,

De Maria
