    "Catholic Answers" Why Did Luther's Heresy Persist?

    MC stayed awhile at least, and I am glad to have known him here - Acting like a dogma-jerk due to differing understandings is never productive... We have proof of that here with one of our obnoxioius contributors... Arsenios

    "Catholic Answers" Why Did Luther's Heresy Persist?

    That particular resolution, eg regarding Latin dogma as local, has been proposed... Some of it can wash... Much cannot... The Doctrine of the Immaculate Conception cannot be received, for instance... Rome has already yielded on the Filioque, and within Her own Communion requires it...

    Thank-you... No - Those accusations were no treasury... They we given in the despair of loss... The Jews as a people did not come around... The treasury of demons is to look for every perceived fault as an opportunity to accuse a person of a presumed evil in his or her soul when he does not...

    "Catholic Answers" Why Did Luther's Heresy Persist?

    Well, we are, after all, working to bring the RCC back into the Holy Communion of the Body of Christ, so as an intermediary measure, we CAN affirm "Transubstantiation" as ONE way of accounting for the Unaccountable... Regarding it as a local, not Catholic [Universal], accounting... Our dogma...

    Paul just a missionary?

    1Cor 4:9 For I think that God hath set forth us the Apostles last, as it were appointed to death: for we are made a spectacle unto the world, and to angels, and to men. He goes on to describe their lives... And ends with: 1Cor 4:16 Wherefore I beseech you, be ye followers of me. An...

    "Catholic Answers" Why Did Luther's Heresy Persist?

    The EOC certainly has those 7 Sacraments - We call them Holy Mysteries... But Paul adds an 8th, the Mystery of the Faith, held in a pure (cleansed) conscience... And with that, one has all the actions of the Faithful as Mysteries... Another being Pauls instruction that we be "redeeming the...

    I am not responaible for your considerations... Are you now accusing me of being a judaizer who teaches Salvation by works? The treasury of demons is accusation... Think "Passive Aggressive"... I mean, do YOU feel accused when I say that the treasury of demons is accusation? It is kinda...

    Yes - The demonized Pharisees accused Jesus of having a demon... Perhaps the most exemplary instance of the treasury of demonic accusation... So I agree with you... Accusation is the "Treasury of Demons"... As you so elegantly attest with Scripture... Arsenios

    Paul just a missionary?

    He was an Apostle, who Evangellized the Faith establishing Churches wherever he went, appointing Bishops and Presbyters and Deacons, consecrating them to Ekklesiastical Service... The Apostolic Calling of God is a rare Gift... It is one Paul entreats us to emulate... Arsenios

    "Catholic Answers" Why Did Luther's Heresy Persist?

    His basic answer is that there are varying degrees or amounts of truth in all the "breakaways" from the Latin Communion, and that those that persist have high degrees of this "truth"... So He would agree with what you hold so dear, that Christ alone is the Savior... I am still waiting myself...

    "Catholic Answers" Why Did Luther's Heresy Persist?

    Since I am the only EOC here, I can answer that on Catholic Answers Forum, I was banned, along with a group of a dozen of so EOC'ers who were successfully converting Eastern Rite Catholics to the EOC, and we were not sparing the Truth... That forum, like any forum, had its denominational...

    Succession

    The way it worked out was that the Disciples drew lots as to where they would go to evangellize... Had there been petrine supremacy, Peter would have assigned the other 11 to their posts... Humility being the greatest virtue, Peter could not have been so named to supremacy... Which is why the...
