Jn 8:43-44 Why is my language not clear to you?
Because you are unable to hear what I say.
You belong to your father, the devil,
and you want to carry out your father’s desires.

Do I hint doubt? I hear we are crazy for what we believe, but usually from atheists/agnostics.

But yeah, like heavenlysecrets says, people thought Jesus was a nut. And the pagans thought the early Christians were crazy, incestuous cannibals. Like you, they misinterpreted the Scriptures and Liturgy of the Church.

John 6:64 But there are some of you that believe not. For Jesus knew from the beginning who they were that believed not, and who should betray him.

65 And he said, Therefore said I unto you, that no man can come unto me, except it were given unto him of my Father.

I, as a born-again Christian
have no doubt about Jesus and my salvation.
You will have to be better in your accusations,
as Catholics are the ones who are not so sure.
Funnily enough they are dead sure that Jesus,
who is bodily in heaven can be eaten physically.
Why is your faith so unstable?

They are so unstable because they ask question about how to get proof they are saved from thier own mouth!

look for yourself, thier lack of doubt witness:

I may or may not believe coming forward is a necessary condition for salvation. But, if I clearly taught elsewhere that repentance/belief alone was sufficient no one would think coming forward is necessary for salvation,or water baptism is necessary for salvation.

Con, you just made stuff up about me. As a born again Christian, my faith is stable. You are the one who doesn't think God is omnipotent.

Evan, nice link you posted. I especially liked the part where the Protestants didn't have an answer. Ho-hum.

I do think that God is omnipotent, so that is a lie.
Born-again Christians don't lie, so you lied about that too

Ha, ok? My faith is stable, so you lied about that. So either you are not born-again, or you just disproved osas. Take your pick.

I said you don't think God is omnipotent, because you find the Real Presence absurd. If you think it's possible, that's a different story.

Note: Your argument that Christ can not be present in both heaven and the Eucharist is quite similar to the claim that God could not be both in heaven and on earth in the person of Jesus. Christ is fully human and fully divine. He is not a mere mortal who is confined to only one place at a time.

O, that is wonderful! But, do you think those spoken of in Matthew 7 had any doubt about Jesus and their salvation? It does not seem so! It seems they were so sure about their salvation that they almost rioted when Jesus broke the news.

And the one who deceived them has not topped deceiving people and giving them false hope, going as far as telling them that even their future sins were already forgiven.

The machine that produces Protestant contradictions seems to be at full steam now.

First we are told that born-again christian do sin and quickly repent, but now we are told that when they sin they (at least) make extra sure that they never commit the sin of telling a lie. All other sins are fine, but telling a lie, no-no! That one is avoided at all costs. LOL

That is funny. "When we sin, we're covered... but we can't lie."

Tell me, con, why is it that this one particular commandment is forbidden and not the others?

Btw, doubting your belief in God's omnipotence is not a lie, but a false assumption at the worst. Pretty hypocritical to assume things about me based on your prejudices against Catholics, yet claim I am not born again when you believe I have done so.

We "run the race to the finish".

You seem to have found an end run around Christ's challenge and have instead changed the rules to the game.

Where is your faith - in Communion with Christ?
