    Purgatory?

    The Catholic Church teaches what good works are works of grace and that ultimately it is God who gives them to the faithful to do by means of his graces to them.

    Voting your moral values.

    Now that the documents for the guilty plea and the arrests as well as the conditions for house-arrest for the two people who are pleading "not guilty" are in the public domain is it time to impeach Donald? What kind of moral values has the current administration and the Trump campaign been...

    Purgatory?

    Catholics teach that salvation is by grace through faith, not by works so nobody can proudly pretend to be self-saved, because the faithful are what God has made them to be, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand to be the way that the faithful live their lives.

    Acts 2:8-13 And how is it that we hear, each of us, in our own native language? (9) Parthians, Medes, Elamites, and residents of Mesopotamia, Judea and Cappadocia, Pontus and Asia, (10) Phrygia and Pamphylia, Egypt and the parts of Libya belonging to Cyrene, and visitors from Rome, both Jews and...

    celebrating Halloween

    The costumes are a USA thing that businesses are trying to sell in other countries to make money. So far in Australia Halloween is not celebrated with trick or treat and consumes but businesses advertise for it in sales and the like so I will not be surprised if it is eventually adopted by...

    Purgatory?

    It was Christian and in Jerusalem but there were Romans there hearing the disciples and they went back to Rome and soon after there was a church in Rome that is why saint Paul wrote a letter to the church in Rome. It's a fairly famous letter too. Protestants use it for "proof texts" about...

    Purgatory?

    The day of Pentecost Christians do not fit "Baptist ecclesiology" nor "Baptist sacramentology". They baptised thousands on the day, the chance that they submerged them in Jerusalem's available water supplies is low because there were not so many "pools" in the ancient city and there was no local...

    Purgatory?

    At the risk of immodesty I think that your "exegesis" compared poorly against the interpretations I've offered from various sources and from myself. You denied that 1 John 4:12 actually teaches that no one has ever seen God despite the support of context and numerous other passages making the...

    celebrating Halloween

    I don't know what "origin" the day can have except that it was created by God and like all other days is a gift to us and to all earthly creatures. The celebration as it is in the USA may have roots in superstitions, I do not know, but the night of the thirty first of October every year is the...

    My family history is all in Europe until I was born in Canada. Sweden and the UK. The UK part is mainly English and Scottish. I included the map because it is pretty :) But this is Confessional Lutheran's thread and I appreciate his Halloween contribution. He is a nice chap. I enjoy my...

    What are you eating? - Part 2

    Beef and pork mince, diced tomatoes, tomato paste, chilli, seasoning, garlic, port wine cooked for an hour and served with spiral pasta made a very tasty lunch for me. It will very likely make a lovely dinner too and maybe lunch again tomorrow.

    Purgatory?

    Baptists have a confession of faith too. It is called the 1689 London Baptist Confession. Chapter 15: Of Repentance Unto Life and Salvation Such of the elect as are converted at riper years, having sometime lived in the state of nature, and therein served divers lusts and pleasures, God in...

    Purgatory?

    Say rather that Baptists are Catholics who have embraced errant views on several matters.
