3 Little girls and a visit?

Christian Teachings

Eventually it was accepted but not from a real faith but by pressure. At the time this took place the church scoffed at the girls, and treated them badly, once again showing human error, and once again the reality of the vision cannot be measured by opinion or vast info. on the churchs teaching. The vision was not based on denomination, it was an event! To not beleive something simply because the specifics are not written is truly vain my brother because again it says that we have God all figured out, come on now. The song of Bernadette, and her story! much proof of truth. What causes you to doubt the integrity of these visions? The teachings you keep refering to have no bearing on weather they are true or not, they are after the fact. Do you beleive it was divine intervention when pastor Haggi was shot at point blank and yet not one bullet hit him? Its not in the bible. I'm sorry brother but my God is not confined by opinion, or historical facts, or is He confined between the pages of Genesis, and Revelation. No brother, the bible is all true but everything that is true is not in the bible??? With respect, David

Well this will be the last post beacause I see you avoid direct reasoning, and refer to history of human error rather than bold faced faith, and as I pointed out I was only refering to an incident that took place before we were born, and had nothing to do with the Catholic church, it was 3 little girls, and 70,000 wittnesses to a sign given. When they reported it to the priests the little girls were not believed by the church. And dear brother you can deny claiming infallibility directly, but indirectly it is very evident you do consider yourself an authority on God, and the bible. You should be ashamed, and put you guitar down, and ask God to forgive you for your vain ego that only respects itself. I ban myself from such selfcentered confusion. I am not catholic nor do I condone idolotry in any form, but I humble myself to understand that I don't understand all there is to know about God like the protestants do. "Not all who call Me Lord, Lord shall enter the kingdom of heaven" " He draws near to the humble, but resists the proud" I will pray for you, and every so called christian that feels they have God in the palm of their hand.

I wasnt condoning the worship of Mary, or you, or anyone else, I was merely pointing out how quickly some christians can dismiss something because of indoctronation, and so 3 little girls with no reason to lie, and the scripture that says "ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE WITH GOD" are thrown out the window. If we beleive that then we dont so readily dispose of something simply because we cant understand the workings of God. No I beleive it is foolish, and presumptuos to think we know the bible soooo well that we can direct God's behaviour. Once again you flatter yourself on knowing God's every move. If you don't beleive the mother of our Savior deserves more attention than yourself, WOA! now that is fatheaded! I admit every sighting, and every so called apparition is not from God at all, but this one in particular was lasting, with a good message, and very profound, with no demonic attributes, no demon, or false angel of light, I see you tend to wheel God's word around to your own liking taking many passages out of context, and once again like the pope you condemn deem yourself INFALLABLE??? WOW!

Do we believe that we have a God that we can adjust according to our own perception, or do we really believe the bible: with God ALL things are possible. Like 3 little peasant girls that saw, and recieved a message from Mary, mother of Jesus. Why are some christians taught to shun this testimony by 3 little girls ,one which is still alive, and still testifies? Do we try to make God's mind up for Him, "Oh no! God wouldn't do that?

Separation of Church and State

Religion/Philosophy

Do you believe your church speaks for God? And the biblical definition of religious is not a thing, or an institution, but an act motivated by ones faith: James 1:26,27. And if it were not for the intervention of church over the years the concience of the state may have been let off the hook so to speak in many cases. It is a touchy subject at best, and not for peaches and cream christians, but meat, and potatoes christians. We really don't know with any amount of bible study what God would say at this point in time according to the delicate issues we are faced with should He decide to post on this forum.

I believe the bottom line, which you don't need a degree to understand only a heart for God who is a realist, as we should be is that the laws of man are for a purpose, and only thru human legalities can we seperate, because in reality God cannot be actually seperated from anything just because we say so, and our faith teaches that so at best we humor those that think they can by any law or written document take God out of ANYTHING, that is absurd. We must have understanding as you explained in delicate matters. Christians who dwell in the political arena, well I feel for them because their christian integrity is constantly tested, and many times put under a microscope. Thank God for His mercy, and forgiveness, and grace. Amen?

Confessions Of A Catholic

Religion/Philosophy

Actually in prison I was deamed dorm pastor, and awaited the night bible study with 4 volunteers, Baxter Allen from Leon Valley Baptist Church, Pastor Mario Nava of Living Faith Church, and a few more, and they refered to me as a Berean. The last 2 years of my time I drew near to them, and studied relentlessly, and 7 years later we are very close , and I know they are commissioned by God, and they are blessed with good strong ministries. My own ministry is about Jesus, and the gospel, and the story of how He changed my life forever. I met Nicky Cruise years back, and was at one time led by a San Antionio police officer not to jail, but to Freddy Garcias house. I sat down with him, and his sons, and we broke bread, and I listened, and learned, and a great seed was planted by Freddie, and the actions of the officer who opted to get me help, rather than lock me up. A few years later, and a little more misery I finaly came full circle, by the grace of God.

Confessions Of A Catholic

Religion/Philosophy

Well I was raised in catholic school before the age of real reason, and I now stand on His word. Paul was approached by some believers that bowed, and worshipped, and he rebuked them, and set them straight, and I beleive the pope should do the same when people kneel and kiss his ring. Billy Graham has always inspired me, and when I heard his story, and how he came to Christ I was moved. I am not a catholic, and the only label I wear is inside because I have been sealed by the Holy Ghost. I like Chuck Swindalls book Grace Awakening, and Max Lucado's devotionals, I don't believe Pastor Haggie is full of the spirit, only filled with himself, doom and gloom, just an observation. Anyway I like the last paragraph, because that is the point. Bless you, and thanks for sharing. David
