@PuddlePirate77@PhanuelZad5665@renewingprotest Purgatory isn’t a second chance at salvation. It’s the final purification of those already saved by Christ. Revelation 21:27 says nothing impure enters heaven. The Church teaches that God’s grace completes our sanctification.
@PuddlePirate77@PhanuelZad5665@renewingprotest 1 Cor 3:15 says the works burn, yet the person is saved “through fire.” Matt 12:32 distinguishes this age from the next regarding forgiveness. Neither explicitly proves purgatory, but both are consistent with the Catholic understanding of purification.
@RobinRoese@Gaba70707 God doesn’t change, but covenants do (Hebrews 8:13). Christians gathered on the first day of the week (Acts 20:7; 1 Corinthians 16:2). Sunday worship wasn’t invented centuries later; it has apostolic roots.
Sabbath was mosaic law.
@Adamu_h_Adamu The fact is that we don’t care what Islam teaches or don’t. Islam has gone against proved historic facts that deny it authenticity and it’s obviously made up for muhamad political and military advantage.
Islam is irrelevant.
@AkinfosileSola@Darkforest73@Adamu_h_Adamu Matthew 16:18–19, Matthew 18:18, Luke 10:16, John 20:21–23, and Acts 15. The Church, apostolic authority, succession, and councils are all biblical. The name “Catholic” came later, not the Church itself.
When they have no more arguments 😂
Claiming Islam is the only true religion doesn’t make it so. Christianity stands or falls on Christ’s resurrection. If you want to challenge it, address the historical evidence rather than simply asserting your faith is superior.
@Adamu_h_Adamu@RatioAdFidem God is the Truth & Truth is Life. He has no religion(Lies). Religion is an abomination in heaven. God created us in Truth but Satan put in man d spirit of sin/religions(lies)
4dis reason God(TRUTH) entered Time, Space & Man 2show us His perfect Way. Jesus Is d Truth
Folo Jesus
@Charlen60403930 Jesus says those in heaven are alive (Luke 20:38), not dead. Revelation 5:8 shows heavenly saints presenting prayers to God. You may dispute whether they hear us, but Scripture never says they cannot.
@Charlen60403930 You’re confusing Christ’s unique mediation of salvation with intercessory prayer. Paul explicitly urges Christians to pray for others in 1 Timothy 2:1, just four verses earlier. Intercession does not disqualify Jesus as only mediator 🙄😂
@IslamDailyx How convenient that revelations granted Muhammad permission to marry his adopted son’s ex-wife (Quran 33:37), exclusive marriage privileges (33:50), and rules for war spoils (8:1). Divine revelation or religious authority serving personal interests?

@Gaba70707 Only God forgives sins. Catholics agree. But in John 20:21–23, Jesus explicitly gives His apostles authority to forgive sins. Priests act through Christ’s authority, not their own. Calling that blasphemy ignores Christ’s own words.
@Charlen60403930 “He is not God of the dead, but of the living” (Luke 20:38). Those united to Christ remain alive in Him (Romans 8:38–39). Asking saints to intercede is not worship or necromancy. You may dispute the practice, but at least represent it accurately.
@Charlen60403930 Both. “Hail Mary, full of grace” comes from Luke 1:28, and “Blessed are you among women” from Luke 1:42. The Rosary is a meditation on Christ’s life. Repetition itself isn’t sinful; Jesus repeated His own prayers (Matthew 26:44).
@Charlen60403930 Abuse isn’t a competition over headlines or payouts. Protestant institutions have faced serious abuse scandals too. Catholic failures must be condemned, but pretending your denomination is immune doesn’t protect victims. It protects institutions.
@Charlen60403930 “His Holiness” is an honorific title, not a declaration that the Pope is divine or sinless. Scripture calls believers “holy” (Ephesians 1:1) and commands respect for spiritual leaders (Hebrews 13:17). Honor is not worship.
