My dear friend......if you somehow think that I am going to spend my time going round and round trying to unconvince you of your Catholic traditions on a forum web site....think again.
“All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting, and training in righteousness, so that the servant of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.”
– 2 Timothy 3:16-17
“Jesus answered, ‘It is written: Man shall not live on bread alone, but on every word that comes from the mouth of God.’” – Matthew 4:4
"Above all, you must understand that no prophecy of Scripture came about by the prophet’s own interpretation of things. For prophecy never had its origin in the human will, but prophets, though human, spoke from God as they were carried along by the Holy Spirit.”
– 2 Peter 1:20-21
Since YOU have made the choice to believe the "traditions" of men over the Word of God, all I can say to you my friend is.....May the Lord bless you and keep you safe.
