For not realizing the Body of Christ. 1 Cor. 11:24-28”<br /><br />In context, the “body of Christ” has reference, not to transubstantiation, but to the church. The Corinthians dishonored Christ by dishonoring fellow Christians through their misconduct at the agape feast.stevehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16547070544928321788noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6789188.post-45615026231866488302010-11-19T19:08:26.146-05:002010-11-19T19:08:26.146-05:00CathApol: Satan did not give us bread and call it ...CathApol: <b>Satan did not give us bread and call it God - GOD DID!</b><br /><br />Classic.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6789188.post-75912477264586834142010-11-19T18:48:03.810-05:002010-11-19T18:48:03.810-05:00louis said...

Because you don't invest in scholarly resources, whether Catholic or Protestant, you have to Google whatever you can scape off the Information Highway.

I included Jack Chick as an EXAMPLE and that I wasn't strictly looking at pro-Catholic sources, Chick being one of the worst. So why does Mr. Hays focus on that ONE citation? Sensationalism? That would be my best guess - as he seems to thrive on it.<br /> <br />aztexan, I too used to have several Chick tracts - many of which I tried to use on my wife prior to my conversion. <i>The Death Cookie</i> tract and the <i>Fr. Rivera</i> comics specifically come to mind. Sadly, many non-Catholics (and I was no exception to this when I was one) think Chick tells the truth about Catholicism - yet his tracts are so packed with lies it isn't even funny. Ironic how when that's what you WANT to see as truth, you do see it as such.CathApolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17762504684024359557noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6789188.post-54011956988509756892010-11-18T00:15:43.935-05:002010-11-18T00:15:43.935-05:00Cathapol, sorry sir, but I don't buy the argum...Cathapol, sorry sir, but I don't buy the argument:<br /><br />*tongue-in-cheek*<br /><br />I know the Bible says "Babylon" for where Peter wrote from ..... .... but it really means Rome.<br /><br />See, that's exactly when you need Mother Church to interpret for you; the Bible says many things but only in code the Roman lens is able to make clear.<br /><br />*end tongue-in-cheek*<br /><br />I still buy the argument <i>if Peter claims he was in Babylon, he was in Babylon, especially given Paul said he was in Rome, and indeed he was</i>.ἐκκλησίαhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01011648681141436328noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6789188.post-31248034915911738702010-11-17T20:58:26.625-05:002010-11-17T20:58:26.625-05:00That's just as cool as it gets.That's just as cool as it gets.James Swanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16136781934797867593noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6789188.post-35619175031518300192010-11-17T14:48:55.544-05:002010-11-17T14:48:55.544-05:00Chick tracts for the win! :)Chick tracts for the win! :)Kaffikjelenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15277888246882454624noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6789188.post-57991928175264729432010-11-17T14:35:12.927-05:002010-11-17T14:35:12.927-05:00I had a desk drawer full of 'em as a kid.

Fortunately my best friend, Mike, and his RC family (they lived across the street) forgave me for earnestly presenting Mike with "Are Roman Catholics Christians?" I suppose they rightly chalked my well-intentioned overtures up to youthful ignorance and Bible Belt Baptist zeal. Not sorry I tried, you understand; just sorry I didn't have more knowledge or tact, not to mention better literature/tools. This was in the days when I thought "Rebecca Brown, M.D." was, like, a real-life demon slayer. Imagine my rueful amusement years later when "Buffy" became all the rage. That'll keep ya humble, folks.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
