Muted for AI generated replies but interestingly the LLM response doesn’t even respond to the point made about Christ founding a Church and empowering specific people with authority. Just goes gish galloping on about the obvious idiocy of papal supremacy doctrines.

You deny Him and His promises when you deny His church. He gave apostles authority, sent them out, and promised that the gates of hell would not prevail against His church (His body). God love you.

Do you believe in the baptism of the mentally deficient? Is rational assent a necessary condition of salvation whether or not the person has capacity to understand? Exactly how much theological depth must a person comprehend to be saved?

The Calvinist view is that Jesus would not have it that all would be saved and draw near to Him but that God creates *some* men into total depravity, offering them no grace but predestining them to eternal torment for sins that they had no real agency in either committing or turning from. Calvinism isn’t actually Christianity as given by Christ and preserved by the Apostles. It’s just some stuff a lawyer made up about 15 centuries later.

He can’t throw himself before Christ or do any good at all. He’s totally depraved. If he one of the lucky ones, Christ will elect him for salvation.

“Where” is a very crucial question. The Protestant account is a circular “argument” that boils down to being able to tell the scripture is the scripture because it looks like the scripture. They have to adopt this theory because all their thousands of Protestant denominations are built on the revolutionary concept of prying loose the scripture from the greater Body of Christ that recognized and preserved the scriptures (a central pillar of Holy Tradition).
The traditional Christian account of scripture is pretty straightforward and rooted in Christ:
1: Christ is the Word Incarnate. He proved His identity by His birth, death, and resurrection.
2: Christ commissioned the apostles with authority from Him to found a church and preach His gospel
3: Those apostles wrote the New Testament by the inspiration of the Holy Spirit
4: The apostles ordained direct successors, still acting by the guidance and protection of the Holy Spirit, who employed their inherited authority to unambiguously identify what the scriptures were (and importantly also taught what they meant).
5: The Christian today can read and submit to the scriptures because they were preserved and delivered to him by the witness of the Church that wields the authority given by Christ. The thing which He promised the gates of Hell would not prevail against. By submitting to the scripture, a believer submits to a direct line of Faith going back to Christ. A Faith once delivered for all to the Saints.

The scriptures are a part of Holy Tradition and you have no meaningful access to their divine authority or wisdom if you try to sever the scriptures from the Church that Christ founded. Sola Scriptura is a heresy that ultimately brings one to worship of self.

“The canon is self-authenticating, bro. No this isn’t begging the question, just grant me the King James Bible as a starting point. Yes the early-modern era reformers were the first have this idea and skipped over the actual work of the actual apostles that Christ gave ecclesial authority to. You can just tell it’s the scripture because of the way that it is. No, this isn’t circular. If you agree with my conclusion, you’re elect, and if you disagree you are clearly reprobate. All the libs who happen to have my same theory of scripture and come to skittles-feminism conclusions are just judging the self-evident facts incorrectly.”

How do you get the New Testament when it did not exist when Paul wrote that? Is the word of God only the Torah which is what he referred to when he wrote that?
How (and by what authority) do you define the list of books that make up the Scriptures? Some books that existed were rejected (by the Church) for various reasons.

This is the point that MMTers are totally right about.

I’m not a Roman Catholic but the commenter is referring to the Eucharist which Christ Himself establishes as normative for salvation. And Paul clearly affirms that the Eucharist (as it was in the first instance in the upper room) is a communal meal shared within the Church. This isn’t to say that salvation is impossible by another means (what is impossible with God?). But Jesus was so clear about this that it scandalized some disciples. He specifies not just belief, but to eat of His Body and Blood to gain eternal life.
“Most assuredly, I say to you, he who believes in Me has everlasting life. I am the bread of life. Your fathers ate the manna in the wilderness, and are dead. This is the bread which comes down from heaven, that one may eat of it and not die. I am the living bread which came down from heaven. If anyone eats of this bread, he will live forever; and the bread that I shall give is My flesh, which I shall give for the life of the world.” The Jews therefore quarreled among themselves, saying, “How can this Man give us His flesh to eat?” Then Jesus said to them, “Most assuredly, I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink His blood, you have no life in you. Whoever eats My flesh and drinks My blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day. For My flesh is food indeed, and My blood is drink indeed. He who eats My flesh and drinks My blood abides in Me, and I in him. As the living Father sent Me, and I live because of the Father, so he who feeds on Me will live because of Me. This is the bread which came down from heaven—not as your fathers ate the manna, and are dead. He who eats this bread will live forever.” These things He said in the synagogue as He taught in Capernaum. Therefore many of His disciples, when they heard this, said, “This is a hard saying; who can understand it?””
‭‭John‬ ‭6‬:‭47‬-‭60‬ ‭NKJV‬‬
“I speak as to wise men; judge for yourselves what I say. The cup of blessing which we bless, is it not the communion of the blood of Christ? The bread which we break, is it not the communion of the body of Christ? For we, though many, are one bread and one body; for we all partake of that one bread.”

If God loves His Creatures and His redemption of His creatures is only contingent on His election/disspensation of saving grace to them, why would we not see universal salvation?
If He requires no synergy between His will and with the will of the regenerated, how could He not save all those who He loves? Conversely, how could He be severe in justice against creatures who, being totally depraved from their conception, had no meaningful participation in their hatred towards Him?
This is the central reason I am not an occasionalist/calvinist. My firm belief in God’s love AND His just righteousness preclude it. People have a meaningful choice in responding to God’s gracious call to repentance. And He will rightly judge based on how people respond to His call in their hearts. May God have mercy on us, the sinners that we are.

No major Christian sects posit equality of Mary with any person of the Trinity. Mary had the same human nature as every other human but was honored, and assented, to bear God the Word in His incarnation. That is why she is rightly called blessed and respected. It is right to treat Christ’s mother with the same respect that He did. It’s bad faith to call any of this “worship” as some protestants do because it’s explicitly not what the churches in question believe.

“Jesus answered, “Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God. That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. Do not marvel that I said to you, ‘You must be born again.’ The wind blows where it wishes, and you hear the sound of it, but cannot tell where it comes from and where it goes. So is everyone who is born of the Spirit.” Nicodemus answered and said to Him, “How can these things be?” Jesus answered and said to him, “Are you the teacher of Israel, and do not know these things? Most assuredly, I say to you, We speak what We know and testify what We have seen, and you do not receive Our witness. If I have told you earthly things and you do not believe, how will you believe if I tell you heavenly things? No one has ascended to heaven but He who came down from heaven, that is, the Son of Man who is in heaven. And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of Man be lifted up, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have eternal life. For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved. “He who believes in Him is not condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. And this is the condemnation, that the light has come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. For everyone practicing evil hates the light and does not come to the light, lest his deeds should be exposed. But he who does the truth comes to the light, that his deeds may be clearly seen, that they have been done in God.””

Which part of the doctrine of iconography necessitates that there are no false synods that promulgate heresy? This objection is far besides the point. The Orthodox Church venerates St Mark of Ephesus who gained renown for being one of a few that stood against the Council of Florence and a false union with the pope. The Church is governed by synod because Christ empowered the apostles who themselves governed by synod (read Acts) and empowered successor bishops (a successional connection that protestant sects are totally alienated from). Many synods have ultimately defended and explicated the Faith because it fulfills Christ’s promise that the gates of hell would not prevail against His Church. But contrasted to synods, the heresy of sola scriptura has manifested vastly more, and more egregious, heresies than even faithless and errant synods have produced. The interpretation and application of scripture by the private discretion of the “christian” led to the defense of abortion, sodomy, adultery, women “clergy”, and ever multiplying sects that call themselves churches. Iconography itself disproves this for it depicts that Christ has one Body. He was not incarnated thousands of times into thousands of bodies. Thus there cannot be thousands of of confessions that call themselves His Body. We venerate the image of our Lord and are joined to His Body in Holy Communion.

The Saints are not dead. They are alive in Christ and present with the Lord. Just as the intercession of a Christian on earth is not a usurpation of Christ as mediator, neither is the intercession of a Christian in heaven.
Arguments from silence in Scripture, misapplied references to literal pagan child sacrifice, or claims that prayer is a usurpation of Christ do not do anything to defeat this basic entailment: a Saint that is absent from the Body is present with the Lord. The Saints make up a great cloud of witnesses to our faith and struggles towards Christ. Their existence out of their body is every bit as real as in their body. Their faith is perfected and their capacity for prayer, if anything, is increased. If we believe in the power of prayer, we ought to ask for theirs.

People think in very static terms about this but you make a good point to keep in mind. For example, if the foreign comparative advantage for commodity X is less than the tariff rate, all the tariff will do is increase domestic production/consumption according to the newly-reshaped competitive balance. So a tariff is unlikely to raise prices more than the competitive disparity for a given item. It'll be cheaper to just make the thing domestically (in the long term of course).

Something that strikes me about these examples: monopoly capitalism is by no means opposed to socialist or unitarian political principles. Many of the richest capitalist were supportive of Communism.
