Those individuals who do not attend church are obviously being guided by Satan into thinking that this life is the only thing that is important and into thinking that the afterlife is of no consequence.
My brother was also saved during an Altar Call by receiving Christ as Savior by praying to Him and asking Him to come into his heart and become his Savior. I suppose you are going to state now that my brother is not saved either? If I do not participate in the unscriptural parts to the Mass and I only participate in the scriptural parts to the Mass then I have repented of the unscriptural RCC doctrines and the unscriptural parts to the Mass. That is logic. When I received Christ as Savior during an Altar Call at my brother's Non Denominational Church by praying to Christ and asking Him to come into my heart and become my Savior I felt the power of the Holy Spirit come over me and thus I have assurance through the Holy Spirit that I am saved. If someone is not saved they do not have the power of the Holy Spirit come over them.
Are you Christ and can you see into the hearts of anybody? The answer is no. So then you have no way of knowing who has received Christ as their Savior and who has not. My brother believes that I am saved because of having received Christ as my Savior during an Altar Call at my brother's Non Denominational Church. Of course Purgatory does not exist. And I have repented of the unscriptural RCC doctrines and the unscriptural parts to the Mass because I have dispensed with the unscriptural RCC doctrines and the unscriptural parts to the Mass. And when I received Christ as Savior all of my sins from the past were forgiven. And every night when I go to bed I rededicate my life to Christ and ask Him to forgive any sins that I may have committed during the day and thus every night I receive forgiveness from Christ for any sins that I may have committed during the day. If church membership is totally suprerfluous in terms of gaining entrance into Heaven then when an RC receives Christ as their Savior and they do not leave the RCC and do not join an Evangelical/Fundamentalist Protestant Church they will still gain entrance into Heaven because they fulfilled the only requirement there is for gaining entrance into Heaven, they received Christ as Savior.
If I received Christ as my Savior by praying to Him and asking Him to come into my heart and become my Savior then I am a Born Again Christian regarless if I still belong to the RCC.
Albert: I never even heard of the creed of Pius IV. That creed is never said in Mass. The only creeds that are said during Mass are the Apostles and Nicene Creeds.
Cindy: I believe that when I received Christ as my Savior during an Altar Call at my brother's Non Denominational Church by praying to Christ and asking Him to come into my heart and become my Savior that I was saved by grace alone in faith in Christ alone because I do not believe that Baptism, the Sacraments or church membership have anything to do with salvaiton.
Lincoln Jim: My brother's Non Denominational Church does not have any error. It is only in your warped mind that not preaching against the RCC is error. Preaching hatred against any church that acknowledges the Deity Of Christ and the Holy Trinity is not being very Christlike.
Cbcpreacher: I have read quite a bit of both the Old and New Testaments in the Catholic Version(New American Bible Copyright 1971) of the Holy Bible and the King James Version of the Holy Bible both of which I own and read. I have not read all of the Holy Bible yet. And my brother's Non Denominational Church preaches more then Romans 10:9-10. That Non Denominational Church preaches from the entire Bible.
If I have dispensed with the unscriptural RCC doctrines and the unscriptural parts to the Mass and I only participate in the scriptural parts to the Mass then I am not showing approval of all RCC doctrines and that is that.
Albert: My brother's Non Denominational Church is right when it comes to the doctrine that it has concerning salvation. The RCC is wrong when it comes to the doctrine that it has concerning salvation. But the RCC is just as much a True Church as is my brother's Non Denominational Church because the RCC acknowledges the Deity Of Christ and the Holy Trinity just like my brother's Non Denominational Church.
Aussie: Knock it off stating that my brother's Non Denominational Church is wrong in their doctrine concerning salvation. That Non Denominational Church states in their Statement Of Faith concerning salvation that the way to get saved is by receiving Christ as Savior and Lord and that the Holy Spirit regenerates all those who have received Christ as their Savior and Lord. And if I have dispensed with the unscriptural RCC doctrines and the unscriptural parts to the Mass then I have repented of the false doctrines of the RCC. Every night when I go to bed I pray to Christ and I rededicate my life to Him and I ask Him to forgive any sins that I may have committed during the day.
Benedict XVI is totally and 100 percent insane for not wanting to allow RC priests to get married. The stupid celibacy rule is why there is a lack of priests. Men do not want to remain unmarried, they want to get married.
Isn't adultery grounds for divorce? If adultery is grounds for divorce then because Gingrich committed adultery while married to his first wife and second wife then the two divorces that Gingrich obtained are biblical divorces. My brother's Non Denominational Church teaches that the only grounds for divorce are adultery and desertion.
Gingrich committed adultery while married to the wife that the state recognizes as his first wife and thus when Gingrich got divorced from the wife that the state recognizes as his first wife it was a biblical divorce because adultery is grounds biblically for divorce. And Gingrich committed adultery while married to the wife that the state recognizes as his second wife and thus when Gingrich got divorced from the wife that the state recognizes as his second wife it was a biblical divorce because adultery is grounds biblically for divorce. And thus Gingrich's present wife is his biblical wife.
Gingrich divorced his first wife when whe was dying with terminal cancer and thus Gingrich's first wife is deceased and thus Gingrich's second wife would be his true and biblical wife. But in order for Gingrich to remarry the second wife he would have to divorce his current wife.
Kenny: What would you suggest that Gingrich do? Divorce his third wife and go back to his second wife?
Lincoln Jim: The answer is yes there are gounds for biblical divorce and grounds are adultery and desertion. Swaggart's son got divorced and got remarried to another woman and is continuing to be a minister at Swaggart's church in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. I will vote for whoever gets the Democratic nomination for president in 2008. Hillary would make a good president.
What church are you referring to? There are only two types of churches, visible and invisible. I know for certain that I am part of the invisible church because I received Christ as my Savior during an Altar Call at my brother's Non Denominational Church by praying to Christ and asking Him to come into my heart and become my Savior.
You stated that Gingrich should not continue to reside with the woman he divorced his second wife for? Then you are advocating that Gingrich divorce his third wife?
Knock it off stating that I am a Jesuit. I am not a Jesuit. I am not even a lousy priest. And knock it off stating that I am not a Christian. If I received Christ as my Savior during an Altar Call at my brother's Non Denominational Church by praying to Christ and asking Him to come into my heart and become my Savior then I am a Christian. There is no one True Visible Church. All churches that acknowledge the Deity Of Christ and the Holy Trinity are True Visible Churches. There is only one True Invisible Church consisting of those individuals who have received Christ as their Savior. If Hart is a member of the Church Of The Nazarene then Hart is an Evangelical/Fundamentalist Protestant Christian because the Church Of The Nazarene is an Evangelical/Fundamentalist Protestant Church.
My brother's Non Denominational Church does not have any errors. Here is a quote from the Statement Of Faith of my brother's Non Denominational Church concerning salvation: REGENERATION: We believe that all people are sinners by nature and by choice and are, therefore, under condemnation. We believe that those who receive Jesus Christ as Lord and believe Him to be their Savior are regenerated by the Holy Spirit.
So there my brother's Non Denominational Church does not have any errors because they preach that in order to be saved one must receive Christ as ones Savior.
Gingrich is the number one hypocrite of them all. Gingrich preaches family values. But Gingrich divorced his first wife when she was dying with terminal cancer to get married to his second wife. Then Gingrich was all for prosecuting Clinton for engaging in adultery and Gingrich was engaging in adultery at the same time that Clinton was.
There is no one True Visible Church. All visible churches that acknowledge the Deity Of Christ and the Holy Trinity are True Visible Churches. There is a True Invisible Church consisting of all those who have received Christ as their Savior.
