hyperdulia again Posted January 10, 2004 Share Posted January 10, 2004 We claim to have the fullness of truth, all the things God in His INfinite Mercy and Love has revealed to the human race. We must speak Catholic Truth, but we must speak it in love that we might be "All things to all men." Example of speaking truth in love: God the Son came to the Earth in the womb of a Virgin. He preached. He founded the Catholic Church that all men might be saved by Her unwaivering witness to all that He taught. He guides this Church that He founded and prevents Her from teaching error. He was Crucified, died, and was buried. He rose from the dead and told His Church to preach His Gospel to the world. He founded only one Church and only that Church has His Truth in it's fullness. Example of not speaking truth in love: You follow a false religion founded by a pugnacious little troll of a monk fifteen hundred years after Christ founded His Church and promised to lead Her into all Truth. May God have mercy on your soul you damned heretic. I realize that sometimes it's hard to follow the first example and also realize that sometimes things are stated as the first example was and readers interpret it as saying what the second example does, but this can't be avoided. We can only be sure that our defense of the Church is not an attack on people who serve the same God we do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bruce S Posted January 10, 2004 Share Posted January 10, 2004 You follow a false religion founded by a pugnacious little troll of a monk fifteen hundred years after Christ founded His Church and promised to lead Her into all Truth. We like our little troll of a Monk. Don't take him away from us or go make him a saint... That would ruin everything! :wacko: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Better example of speaking truth in love and humbleness - not pride: God the Son came to the Earth in the womb of a Virgin. He preached. We believe He founded the Catholic Church that all men might be saved by Her unwaivering witness to all that He taught. We believe He guides this Church and prevents Her from teaching error. He was Crucified, died, and was buried. He rose from the dead and told His church to preach His gospel to the world.

Circle_Master Posted January 11, 2004 Share Posted January 11, 2004 The difference is this hyperdulia - most here do not realize that what they say - is what they believe. Most here speak as if their words are God's Himself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hyperdulia again Posted January 11, 2004 Author Share Posted January 11, 2004 Well, we say nothing that the Church hasn't said and WE BELIEVE that the Church has said nothing that God hasn't said. IF a simple statement of Catholic faith is prideful in your opinion, you will not get very far here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
