Don;t forget that its the words within the Gospel that saves... i can't find anywhere in the Gospel that says salvation is necessary. What about somebody who wants to become a Christian on their deathbed... I believe that it isn't too late for them. Christ has paid the price fully, "It is...
Hey I only backed out because it was best to quit this debate there and then. I only made a few posts and already people seemed to be stressing. I thought it best if I leave the debate to you lot, thats all. I am not a total expert on roman catholicism so I just thought I would chuck a few...

Hello Oneway,
It seems you have great love for God and I pray that you are truly blessed. However, I must advise against using Pascal's wager in an attempt to bring none-believers to salvation. The problem with it is that it only address two absolutes when in reality, (from an athiest's point...

Strange, nobody has answered back about the sites I gave them. Come on people, have some courage and take a look at them. Read them from start to finish and then talk about it here, thats what I posted them for :D
Hello Retrorich.
I have only been a Christian since early this year but I will try my best to answer your concerns.
Nobody will ever be able to fully comprehend this. The reason behind that is we are bound by all the scientific laws of this universe. Just about everything in the universe can...
Here is a couple of quotes from one of the sites I posted:
"Around 1563, the catholic church created horrible laws at the Council of Trent that made it a death sentence for anyone who said the bread and wine used in their holy communion were only symbolic..."
"When Helen takes the wafer god...
I found some more stuff. Boy am I going to get it in the neck :bonk:
