Happy Fat Tuesday everyone!
I'm wanting to give up something meaningful for Lent and that will be Great Awakening any world news for that matter. As you know, this site can be addictive!
Now seems like a difficult time to give up on paying any attention on current events. What will happen with the Ukraine\Russia conflict? What about the trucker convoys? Will Covid be gone by Easter? It seems the CDC is releasing damning information now, what will become of that?
I gave up the same last year, and it definatly gave a great sense of peace to have little to no input on world events for 40 days. Returning was actually really disappointing. The only developments I came back to last year were discussions of airlines requiring vaccinations, and talk at GAW about "the upcoming Arizona audit."
Keep up the good fight Patriots!
Until April 17.
Mary is an idol
No. Mary was the mother of Jesus. Moloch is an idol.
You are asking Mary to ask Someone Who is inside you already?
Yes. It's called intercession. It's no different than asking for prayers from a person in your life, like your grandma or friend.
What works did the thief on the cross do?
Again you're missing the point. I'm not saying works are required to get into heaven but implying they aren't important or at least expected is hogwash. As for the works of the man on the cross, I'm not sure. But as far as I can tell Jesus saved the man because he repented.
Luke Chapter 23: “Do you not even fear God, since you are under the same sentence of condemnation? And we indeed are suffering justly, for we are receiving what we deserve for our crimes; but this man has done nothing wrong.”
catholics just cannot interpret scripture. Proven fact. His workmanship. They are claiming it for themselves.
You apparently can't read so I'll literally spell it out for you. "For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do."
God literally prepared us to good works. Plain, simple English. Not hard to understand. Now if you're claiming Catholics are taking credit for the good works, again that's b.s. Maybe SOME Catholics do, but when a Godly person does good works they do it in the name of God not their own.
So that no man can boast.
You clearly have a problem with Christians doing good works because you think they take credit for them. Not sure where you get this idea but scripture commands us to love our neighbor and help them.
