    Please, will you rephrase your post because I do not understand what it is intended to mean.

    Mother of God

    It is an off topic set of definitions posted in this thread because a number of participants were either confused about the meaning of the word 'adoration' or were using definitions applicable to secular English usage but not to Catholic (Latin derived) use. It is better not to disturb this...

    Mother of God

    We say both, in fact holy scripture says both. That is why we say both.

    False teachers

    The holy scriptures disagree with that, in fact the Lord Jesus Christ disagrees with that; he said,Jesus answered them, Do ye now believe? Behold, the hour cometh, yea, is now come, that ye shall be scattered, every man to his own, and shall leave me alone: and yet I am not alone, because the...

    Once saved always saved?

    I am not moving away from 10 but the Lord says more than that he is the good shepherd, he also says he is the vine and his Father is the husbandman who prunes unfruitful branches out of the vine. Let's keep focus on what the Spirit of the Lord says to the churches.

    Like fruit? You mean that Jesus got it all wrong and they don't need to bear fruit? Amazing.

    Once saved always saved?

    And what do you make of the branches pruned from the vine? The Lord himself teaches that he is the vine and the faithful are the branches so how can branches that are in the vine, that is in Christ, be pruned and burned if "once saved always saved" is in keeping with the teaching of Christ?

    Once saved always saved?

    You're the only one whose said anything about the sheep fold hearing. It's a red herring. Nobody aside from you mentioned it.

    Once saved always saved?

    I noticed no interaction with either my post or the scripture quoted in it or the link between chapters ten and fifteen in the gospel according to saint John. But that is how the 'game' is played isn't it? The game is to avoid some passages so one can pretend that other passages are the clincher...

    Once saved always saved?

    John ten does not stand in isolation from John fifteen in which branches from the vine are pruned and burned. Those branches are in Christ until they are pruned and burned. Nobody can read the two chapters without coming away knowing that the Lord Jesus Christ wants the faithful to follow him...

    False teachers

    It's one thing to prosper through careful investment and productive work and quite another to have some money collecting televangelist say "Send your seed money to me and watch how much God will prosper you!". The only one who prospers from the televangelist's money collecting is the...

    He said to the women, "Where are your accusers?" the Lord did not say "woman" in that passage.

    Holy Living...

    When one give the matter some thought and reads the old covenant in the light of Christ it becomes clear that nobody has ever earned their way into heaven, Christ alone excepted, by obedience to the law or any commandments of God. Grace has always been the means by which the faithful live in...

    Who do you most admire?

    I am quite impressed by many of the saints both under the old covenant and under the new as well as the saints canonised by the Catholic Church and also men and woman among the wise pagans such as Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi. Men like Dietrich Bonhoeffer set an example of courage in the face of...

    Holy Living...

    The law will not stop you from sinning; it never has had that power. The law gives one the outline of the promised land where holy living is possible. It is grace that empowers one to live a holy life that is pleasing to God and the faithful are called to live a holy life as the holy scriptures...
