About Catholic Teaching question?
Therefore, there are some things that people mentioned in this forum about the Catholic saints to ask for prayer, asking Mary to pray for them, holding high extract value in the biblical texts (not the same value), etc.
while Catholics believe Christ is the salvation through grace. Shouldn't the other things that are different from evangelicals (as mentioned above), it does not matter at all.
I can say all of them based on the Bible and one can argue against them but they are not necessary for salvation is only Christ.
So it really does not matter that much or is that an example of how to take the Protestant churches less necessary parts of the Bible and use it to divide churches.
Only serious responses. And lets not talk about trying to justify why the evangelicals are right, as it could continue throughout the year.
its funny in this forum where you get the armature appears with Bible verses.
The authority of the Church rests on three pillars:
Scripture-The Bible is the inerrant word of God and should be read as the early Christians read: in the light of tradition and the guidance of computers to teach.
The tradition of the teachings that the Church has preserved and passed down from Christ, his apostles, and the unanimous teaching of the early Church Fathers.
Magisterium - the teaching of the Church under the guidance of the Holy Spirit.
The Church has 7 sacraments - outward signs of invisible grace "and the media of sanctifying grace. The sacraments are Christ has given us so that we can receive His grace and be more like him. The seven sacraments are:
Baptism
Sacrament of Confirmation, the Seal
Eucharist
Penance
Holy Marriage
Holy Orders
Extreme unction
The Church teaches not only looking at the Scripture, but in history and by reading what the earliest Christians have written, so we sat on the Chair of Peter have spoken consistently with Scripture and tradition, and what they have solemnly defined.
To believe that the Bible is our sole source of Christian truth is illogical and unbiblical
As you can see from the answers you are receiving, there are a lot of misconceptions about the Catholic Church. I am Catholic and believe that the only way to salvation is through the atoning death of Christ on the Cross. His precious blood was the price of our redemption - nothing else.
That is the bottom line that determines whether one is a "real" Christian or not. The rest is a matter of semantics and / or doctrinal differences. Ultimately, God will not ask, "Were you a Lutheran?" Or "Did you join the Methodist church?"
He will ask, "Would you accept your Son as my Lord and Savior?" Anyone can say, "Yes, I did," is a Christian, regardless of what belonged to the church on earth.
There are many problems between the Catholic Church and other churches. Some of these we believe are important as (a) the pope (that Jesus had originally ordered 12 leaders with apostolic signs), how to handle Catholics "mass", the change of the 10 commandments salvation through infant baptism, which want the Roman Catholic Church at the head of all other churches, etc.
Yes, Christ is only necessary for salvation, but to say that means that everyone must repent at some time in those things that are offensive to our Lord. Therefore, the divisions.
Salvation is a big problem. CRs do not teach the truth of salvation … As for other isues … dose not make much of a trick that can keep a person from knowing the truth, and truth can not come from God … is the same with JWS. Change only a small part, but I everything you need to keep fooled by what you come to God in the manner prescribed.
The road is in the Bible … but one dose does not need to know the Bible to know the path. That understanding can come directly from God … or come to study that is guided by God through the Holy Spirit. I did not own a Bible on the day of my salvation. My understanding of the truth comes directly from God.
]
God deals with each person diferently … but regardless of the dose that God … when one gets to know the truth … The main deception as resident coordinators and JWS clear.
I honestly believe that is so confusing that you do not even know where to start.
If Christ is the only way, so why put Mary between man and God? I sounds as if saying "one thing but practice another. Catholicism is a pseudo-Christian cult designed to send people to hell.
The 'other teachings of the Catholic Church - which are the sacraments - the meaning of things that help Christians to be closer to God, to be more like Christ in our daily lives.
Yes, Christ is for salvation, but these "other" things, esp. the sacraments - are helping us tremendously in our spiritual journey. Its role is to help us along.

All part of the body. The feet are complaining that the elbows are not the feet.
Catholics under the cross with Mary, the Mother, while the other disciples to watch from a distance.
More precisely, Catholics believe salvation is through membership in the church, not only of grace. That in opposition to what they believe evangelists, and what the Bible says. So, of course it matters.
I'm not saying that a Catholic can not be saved. I think that Catholics are my brothers in Christ, as much as any Protestant. Individually, they may have salvation as any Protestant. But the Catholic religion as a whole, in fact, it teaches against some very basic principles of the Bible and true Christianity. And never to stand by and tolerate such teachings on the body of Christ, Catholic or Protestant.
