  • Paradise Lost?

    Roman Catholicism teaches that there are two types of sin: venial sins which don’t merit the loss of salvation, and mortal sins which merit the loss of salvation. This distinction is not biblical. The result of this teaching is that a typical Roman Catholic will vacillate between being saved and damned hundreds, or even thousands…

  • My Theology

    My theological doctrinal beliefs:

  • Real Presence: Real or Not

    The Roman Catholic and Orthodox churches teach that when the priest says the words of consecration, the bread and wine transform into the physical body and blood of Jesus.

We know from Scripture that all believers in Christ are saints. Their veneration of the saints and hyper-veneration of Mary constitute a clear case of idolatry. Christ alone is the…

  • Determining Doctrine

    During the time of the Apostles, when Scripture was being written, the Apostle Paul warned us (the Church) against error creeping in if we weren’t vigilant.
