HisChildForever Posted September 21, 2009 Share Posted September 21, 2009 LOL, I get called a Devil worshiper FOUR TIMES and yet I still seem to be the one racking up the negatives. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What can you really say to a person who thinks you're a devil worshipper? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
picchick Posted September 21, 2009 Share Posted September 21, 2009 Geez, Erin, lay off. I was driven to the point of frustration with your statements to him. Then when he finally bursts out you make some snide comment on his caffeine intake. Furthermore, I don't remember you getting your degree in medicine. Correct me if I am wrong but when can you tell someone that they are experiencing sleep paralysis if you aren't having a personal one on one couch session with him? Thank God he experienced whatever it is he experienced that brought him one step closer to God. We cannot say the same about others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

picchick Posted September 21, 2009 Share Posted September 21, 2009 C.B.: What I don't understand is why do you call yourself a pagan? You believe in the one true God. Pagans believe in false gods whether one or many. The god(s) may be real to them but the fact is those gods are not the one true God. And to others: sure, maybe C.B. doesn't believe in Jesus. Neither do the Jews. Maybe he doesn't understand the Christianity the way we do. His convictions are true though so why not build on it whether than question how he came to the understanding that he did? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] To add to that, he also has clearly stated that he is open to what we believe and is actively exploring his new faith in Christ- a work in progress, so to speak. To ignore that would be truly reprehensible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Resurrexi Posted September 21, 2009 Share Posted September 21, 2009 [quote name='Selah' date='20 September 2009 - 10:39 PM' timestamp='1253504358' post='1970166'] Huh? [/quote] A priest who does not believe in God can offer the sacrifice of the Mass as long as he pronounces the words of consecration over bread and wine with the intention of doing what the Church does. The Early Christians who were coerced into offering incense to the emperor had to do severe penance for the sin of idolatry, even if they did not believe that the emperor was divine. So too, an atheist who participated in the sacrificing of a bull to Poseidon would be worshiping that god, even if that atheist did not that Poseidon was real.
