homeschoolmom Posted April 6, 2004 Share Posted April 6, 2004 I mean it... please take the time to say something nice about our brothers and sisters in Christ... In this season of Holy Week, I think it would be good to pray for our separated brethren. (I've spent too much time on the Debate Table today)...

Fiat_Voluntas_Tua Posted April 6, 2004 Share Posted April 6, 2004 I would agree...I have spent to much time debating and not enough praying...We need to love our neighbors like ourselves. Pax et Agape per Maria, Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mamalove Posted April 6, 2004 Share Posted April 6, 2004 Well one thing I can say is that, statistically speaking, there are more pro-life Protestants than there are pro-life Catholics, percentage wise. A lot of them are doing something right in that realm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qfnol31 Posted April 6, 2004 Share Posted April 6, 2004 I invited one to say a Rosary with me tonight. Too bad he was too busy. Oh well, the poor guy isn't Catholic...actually, let me start at the beginning. Last October my youth director, matt gill, came out with a T-shirt with "I'm a Papist" on the front. It's set up to look like "I'm a Pepper" (from Dr. Pepper). Well, anyway, someone started calling this guy a heretic so he wants to get a shirt which says "I'm a Heretic" on it. But I'm being nice!

hopeful1 Posted April 6, 2004 Share Posted April 6, 2004 i have alot of protestant friends, they got alot of spirit, so at least their heart's in the right place. Even tho i have faith that this is the true church, i think there is alot we can learn from our protestant friends as well, and vice versa.

Hail Mary full of grace the Lord is with thee, blessed art thou amoung women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb Jesus. Holy Mary Mother of God, pray for us sinner, now and at the hour of our death. Amen. Mary I pray for all my protestant brothers and sisters, I put them in your hands, Most Holy Mother. Mary Holy Mother of God, Pray for us. Edited April 6, 2004 by Jason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chocolate thunder Posted April 6, 2004 Share Posted April 6, 2004 A few good things 'bout them Protestants: 1) It's because of evangelical and fundamentalist Protestants that the U.S. hasn't yet followed Europe wholly into the black swamp of post-Christianity. 2) We're learning from Protestants - slowly - how to engage in fellowship. 3) Protestants know the Bible. We don't. 4) Protestants are more likely to be fervent in their faith, and less likely to be merely culturally Christian, than are we. That enough for now. It's tiring, you know... this business of saying swell things about Protestants... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mom25angels Posted April 6, 2004 Share Posted April 6, 2004 Some of the BEST Catholics I know are former protestants so........... they can't be all bad.(Just kidding )!!!! I love all our seperated bretheren, they challenge me to know love and serve the Lord. I have many Evangelical friends who are fellow crusaders for the unborn too. Gotta love them!! I just want them all to be "unseparated". Sarah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mary's Knight, La Posted April 6, 2004 Share Posted April 6, 2004 first as frustrating as it can be i love the fact that they care about me enough to try and save me from error and through this care will challenge me to know and explain every aspect of my faith, second, gotta hand it to them when it comes to praise music or at least most of the "good" praise music i hear is on prot stations third, i love how well they know the books of the bible that we agree on fourth, a lot of the prots i know take living christianity so seriously that they make great christian friends esp if you need someone to hold you accountable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Archangel Posted April 6, 2004 Share Posted April 6, 2004 I love Protestants. God bless them. Howevever, I don't feel the same way towards [b]anti-Catholic[/b] Protestants. May God have mercy on their souls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
homeschoolmom Posted April 6, 2004 Author Share Posted April 6, 2004 [quote name='Archangel' date='Apr 5 2004, 11:14 PM']May God have mercy on their souls.[/quote] May God have mercy on all of our souls! Remember, most Protestants aren't argumentative... they are nice people who love Jesus the [b]best they know how[/b] . I can't believe that only 11 or so people on Phatmass can say something nice. I hope there are more replies tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
