I think we crossed wires somehow? I was responding to Fredoheaven's question, which I don't think related to the story in your post, but I presumed he missed the point you made about once a catholic is saved he can no longer call himself a catholic. Poorly worded on my part methinks.

Brother Kiwi,

It is so easy to make mistakes with everything going on. My mind at 63 (see what I mean?) 65 works slow sometimes.

Aloha,
Renee

Your right George,
I was thinking faster then typing. One has to first invite
Christ into their heart and then repent their sins

[Luke]

Noone goes to hell for being a Catholic, Jew, Muslim etc.

They go to hell for rejecting the only escape from hell and having to pay the penalty for their own sin.

[Mind and Body]

No one suggested that, Bro. Luke.

Ok, Bro. Luke Thanks.
I have at times typed wrong, the though I was having.
A missed used word can change the whole thing. LOL

MAB, there are many definitions of a cult. The true and clinical one, if you will, is any religion that follows two authorities. I was in Church of Christ, they base their beliefs on the Bible and the teachings of Alexander Hamilton. The Mormons are the Bible and the teachings of Joseph Smith. The Jehovahs Witnesses are their bible and the teachings oif the Watchtower Organization, and the list goes on. The Catholic Church is the king od cults but follows the pattern: The Bible and Catholic traditions/teaching. The reason why so many ex-Catholics make of the majority of members in the cults(particularly the JWs) is simple: Catholics are already ingrained with the concept of two OPPOSING authorities in many cases.

I am glad you are free of them.

Grace and peace

Tony
