Is it just a belief in Jesus the Messiah? Well Mormons and even the Devil believe in Christ. So “belief” in Jesus does not make you a “Christian” per se. You must believe the Bible as it is clear that Jesus is God in flesh and the creator of everything. There is essential doctrine to follow, but I will focus on only a couple for the sake of brevity; The Roman Catholic Church breaks two essential doctrines. 1) They promote Mary and the Saints to a God-like...

2. What's Up with Roman Catholic Teaching on Salvation? February 11, 2012 Is it possible to be a Christian if you are to follow the Official Roman Catholic teaching on Salvation?

8. Apologetics: Are Christian Apologists Losing Focus? February 08, 2012 I was humbled recently or should I say slapped in the face by my own hand? It was brought to my attention yesterday that during a “debate” with a Roman Catholic, that when things started heating up as sometimes they do, my focus on Jesus was lost. It then became a matter of pride and not Glorifying Jesus Christ. Sure there was vitriol and some name calling however is that what Jesus would want? I must quote the famous Bible passage that is the cornerstone of all Apologists and Christians called to “defend” the faith; 1 Peter 3: 15 (NASB) 15 but sanctify Christ as Lord in your hearts, al...

9. The Apocryphal Books: Bible Worthy? February 07, 2012 I have noticed that many Catholic believers will go to great detail as to why they think that the Holy Bible is “incomplete”, because the “Hidden Books” or as more commonly known as the Apocryphal books are not included. There are many reasons why they were not included. To begin with, The Catholic Church itself did not always accept them. They were not even officially accepted until 1546 at The Council of Trent, 1500 years plus after they were written! In fact many today say that it was basically a reaction to the Protestant Reform.

11. Justification: The Bible vs. Roman Catholicism February 02, 2012 Does this title seem a bit strange to you? How can there be a difference in belief or interpretation of Justification between the Bible and the Roman Catholic Church? Let us first examine the definition of the word “Justification”. “Justification” is the legal declaration by God upon the sinner where God declares the sinner righteous in his eyes.
