Eternal Security

accounted rightousness does not eliminate the deeds of righteousness but establishes them,

After receiving the grace of Justification by faith & baptism we are sanctified by the grace and righteousness of Christ!

For us it's the rightousness of Christ, therefore we must fulfill the deeds of Christ empowered by grace! (virtues, prayer, alms, fasting, self-denial suffering, sacraments "fruits of the sacrifice of Christ & our participation in the sacrifice" the narrow road ect.)

If it is grace then it is no loger works?

not no longer required to be done but no longer considered works because they are of Grace and done in union with Christ empowered by His life and grace!

faith, hope, charity are the opposite of

ETERNAL SECURITY!

eternal security violates the law of faith, "just shall live by faith" and it is presumption and sins against faith hope and charity!

Christians are called to be faithful!

20 Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies,

21 Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.

Eph 5:2-6

2 And walk in love, as Christ also hath loved us, and hath given himself for us an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweetsmelling savour.

3 But fornication, and all uncleanness, or covetousness, let it not be once named among you, as becometh saints;

4 Neither filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor jesting, which are not convenient: but rather giving of thanks.

5 For this ye know, that no whoremonger, nor unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, hath any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God.

6 Let no man deceive you with vain words: for because of these things cometh the wrath of God upon the children of disobedience.

4 Neither filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor jesting, which are not convenient: but rather giving of thanks.

5 For this ye know, that no whoremonger, nor unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, hath any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God.

6 Let no man deceive you with vain words: for because of these things cometh the wrath of God upon the children of disobedience.

1 cor 6:9-10 & 15-20

9 Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind,

10 Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.

15 Know ye not that your bodies are the members of Christ? shall I then take the members of Christ, and make them the members of an harlot? God forbid.

16 What? know ye not that he which is joined to an harlot is one body? for two, saith he, shall be one flesh.

17 But he that is joined unto the Lord is one spirit.

18 Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the body; but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body.

19 What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own?

20 For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's.

God loves all people, and wants all people to be a part of His family and live with Him in His kingdom forever… not because we deserve it, but because of who He is.

anyone Catholic can be married

there are 14 rites in the church some of these have all married priests

in the western rite celibacy is a disciple following Christ and Paul but not a doctrine

Matthew 19:29
And every one that hath forsaken houses, or brethren, or sisters, orfather, or mother, or wife, orchildren, or lands, for my name's sake, shall receive an hundredfold, and shall inherit everlasting life.

nuns are consecrated virgins the brides of Christ who in imitation of Mary most holy have consecrated themselves and thier virginity to God and His service

song of solomon 1:3 Because of the savour of thy good ointments thy name is as ointment poured forth, therefore do the virgins love thee.

btw if you are referring to 1 tim 4:1-3 it was fulfilled by the albigensian's who had two God's like the freemasons and their checkerboard floors black and white

there is no requirement for any prayer beads, the rosary is a Jesus prayer meditation on the mysteries of His life death and resurrection

anyone in the communion of saints can pray and intercede for one another

Christ is the only mediator on the level of redemption and atonement not supplications

1 tim 2:5-6
5 For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus;

6 Who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time.

1 tim 2:1 I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men;

prayer is connected to the sacrifice of Christ!

rev 5:6-8

6 And I beheld, and, lo, in the midst of the throne and of the four beasts, and in the midst of the elders, stood a Lamb as it had been slain, having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God sent forth into all the earth.

7 And he came and took the book out of the right hand of him that sat upon the throne.

8 And when he had taken the book, the four beasts and four and twenty elders fell down before the Lamb, having every one of them harps, and golden vials full of odours, which are the prayers of saints.

The immaculate conception actually refers to Mary being created by God without original sin. Lk 1:49

Zechariah 12:10
And I will pour upon the house of David, and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the spirit of grace and of supplications:

titus 2:11 For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men.

Ineffabilis Deus
The Immaculate Conception
Pope Pius IX - 1854

“We declare, pronounce, and define that the doctrine which holds that the most Blessed Virgin Mary, in the first instance of her conception, by a singular grace and privilege granted by Almighty God, in view of the merits of Jesus Christ, the Savior of the human race, was preserved free from all stain of original sin, is a doctrine revealed by God and therefore to be believed firmly and constantly by all the faithful.”

Gen 3:15 I will put enmities between thee and the woman, and thy seed and her seed: she shall crush thy head, and thou shalt lie in wait for her heel.
(Enmities total war, none of satan’s works found in Her immaculate purity)

Lk 1:28 And the angel came in unto her, and said, Hail, Mary full of Grace, the Lord is with thee: blessed art thou among women.
(Immaculate purity, full of grace, blessed)

Lk 1:35 And the angel answered and said unto her, The Holy Ghost shall come upon thee, and the power of the Highest shall overshadow thee: therefore also that holy thing which shall be born of thee shall be called the Son of God.
(Mary must have immaculate purity)

Lk 1:47 And my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour. (Preserved from all sin in virtue of the merits of the blood of the savior who is Her son)
(Christ is savior in forgiving sin and by His powerful grace preventing sin)

Lk 1:49 For he that is mighty hath done to me great things; and holy is his name.

“Things plural”

(Immaculate conception of Mary and the miraculous conception of Jesus)

Song of Solomon 4:1 Behold, thou art fair, my love; behold, thou art fair; thou hast doves' eyes within thy locks: thy hair is as a flock of goats, that appear from mount Gilead.

Rev 12:1 a woman clothed with the sun.
(Immaculate purity)


Scripture says: “holiness befits thy house, O Lord” (Ps 93:5). Mary was Jesus’ “house” for 9 months so if holiness befits God’s house would not Mary be holy also? Just like the Ark and the Tabernacle she was set apart and consecrated to the Lord., the holy dwelling of God.
"God has formed the soul & body of the virgin Mary full of the Holy Spirit, so that She is without all sins for She has conceived and born the Lord Jesus"

Why do people use rosary beads and who are they praying to when they recite the rosary?

Show me a scripture, not a scripture reference but a scripture where Christ or His apostles instructed us to build a massive Vatican in Rome and erect an obelisk in the courtyard.
 
The immaculate conception actually refers to Mary being created by God without original sin. Lk 1:49

For He who is mighty has done great things for me,
And holy is His name. Luke 1:49

This scripture says nothing about Mary being born sinless.

How deceitful to make such a preposterous unbiblical statement and tag it with a scripture reference knowing the actual scripture has nothing to do with your claim.

Do you have no fear of God?

Do you think it is a game to deceive God’s people in such a way.

How disgraceful.


And His mercy is on those who fear Him
From generation to generation. Luke 1:50
 
Why are Nuns and priests are not able to marry in Catholicism?
nuns cannot get married cos they have chosen to consecrate their virginity and themselves to God and His service alone!

priests could be married but they choose the latin rite with the discipline of Christ and paul celibacy

And every one that hath forsaken houses, or brethren, or sisters, orfather, or mother, or wife, orchildren, or lands, for my name's sake, shall receive an hundredfold, and shall inherit everlasting life.
