I am not sure the Roman Catholic Church addresses that specifically...only that having completed her earthly life, she was assumed into heaven. The Eastern Orthodox Catholic Church does state specifically she died and then was assumed into heaven.I could be wrong but I believe that TRUE Catholic teaching has always been that she was assumed alive into Heaven.
It is One God, One Faith, One Baptism. Good works are not a part of it. Good works are often the fruit of the saints. A baby for example is not condemned for lack of good works.Protestants get Catholicism WRONG more often than not (understatement).
Catholics say that works are not what saves you. Nevertheless, you cannot get to Heaven without doing good works for Christ and the furtherance of His Kingdom on Earth
Catholicism teaches (or did until Francis the heretic came along) that it is GRACE that saves, grace that comes from Jesus Christ (Father, Son and Holy Spirit).
Doing good works in and with and through Christ brings... what?
GRACE
Not doing good works for the furtherance of the Kingdom brings what...
lack of grace... sins indulged in to the point you don't care about your soul much or anyone else's
you are assuming, nothing more- i think being sinless would be pretty important! What part of ALL HAVE SINNED did you miss? Did it say all but Mary? you guys love adding (man mad tradition) the catechism to the bible!. THAT IS WRONG AND ALL RCC WILL HAVE TO ANSWER TO GOD FOR THAT.because everything about Jesus can be shoved into a small book
No, actually the Bible says that if everything Jesus did and said were to be written down, it is doubtful the whole world could contain all the books.
The Church came before the Bible (New T) as we know it (and decided which Books would be therein). No one had a personal Bible until after the printing press was invented, 1440. So I guess there were no Christians before then, no Church (!!) according to you know it all protesters
IT DOESNT MATTER WHAT THE CHURCH SAYS- IT HAS TO BE IN THE BIBLE.I am not sure the Roman Catholic Church addresses that specifically...only that having completed her earthly life, she was assumed into heaven. The Eastern Orthodox Catholic Church does state specifically she died and then was assumed into heaven.
Mary died, and the tradition established, long before the Bible. Paul did not know Mary. Luke (tradition has it) did. Luke noted her status of complete grace. It is in the Bible for those who have eyes to see.IT DOESNT MATTER WHAT THE CHURCH SAYS- IT HAS TO BE IN THE BIBLE.
mary was sinless, they knew perfectly well how they felt and had no shame for what they did and were blessed by the heavens.
Romans 3:23 teaches that all have sinned and fall short of God’s glory, and there is nothing in the Bible to suggest that Mary was an exception to this rule.
you're clueless.
Have you ever watched children play? Most of the time they are cute but then once one ofr them gets the notion that another child is.. fill in the blanks: stealing his toys or whatever, dude has a caniption and may start hitting the kid, not caring whether he hurts him or not. In other words, you can tell there is evil "built in" from the time of birth. Of course children under the age of about 7 cannot be held accountable.. just kids. But all hell breaks out whne they get older.
Don't tell me there is no original sin
there is evil"built in"from the time of birth.
I don't care what a false religion teachesI am not sure the Roman Catholic Church addresses that specifically...only that having completed her earthly life, she was assumed into heaven. The Eastern Orthodox Catholic Church does state specifically she died and then was assumed into heaven.
there is no such anomaly as original sin, primarily christian c-bible is simply a prelude to their equally false worship of a messiah and religion of servitude ...
evil exists before birth and will never be put in a bottle - each individual, very few have must eradicate evil to merit admission to the everlasting.
Little children are alive in Christ and if they suffer death before the age of accountability, they are saved in the kingdom of heaven. Children are only held accountable after becoming capable of knowing good from evil and understanding it and then choosing evil. Good works are required of all true followers of Jesus Christ. They are not what saves us but they are required. See the many verses in post #63 that teach this basic principle.It is One God, One Faith, One Baptism. Good works are not a part of it. Good works are often the fruit of the saints. A baby for example is not condemned for lack of good works.
um... assuming I precisely understand your question or point, I will say this:nomadic5, Do you consider favor from Christ as everything coming up roses for you?
Could it be he favored you enough to pay for all of your sins culminating in His death to give you direct access to you Father and Heaven?
What biblical proof do you have she didnt sin? I'll believe what God said over the corrupt satanic rcc leading billions to hell.Mary died, and the tradition established, long before the Bible. Paul did not know Mary. Luke (tradition has it) did. Luke noted her status of complete grace. It is in the Bible for those who have eyes to see.
It has always amazed me how important--how vital--it is for non-Catholic Christians to believe that Mary sinned. Why is that?
there is no purgatory, its heaven or hell. period.um... assuming I precisely understand your question or point, I will say this:
The greatest thing to have in this life is the knowledge that Jesus has saved you and if you continue to be IN Him until your death, you at least have a chance to be in Heaven some day. You may have to be in Purgatory awhile but oh well. Jesus said He would never leave us or forsake us (no matter where we find ourselves, presumably). Of course, if we sin egregiously, we will be leaving Him and that's different.
well, at least I understood the first sentence! Progress?
And yes there is original sin. No one is born pure and holy, although children are innocent until they reach the age of reason.
You have been brainwashed by the anti-Catholic society surrounding you (and eveyrone else)
Asked and answered.What biblical proof do you have she didnt sin?
WHERE? VERSE?Asked and answered.
oh brother... like I said otherwise.. A baby for example is not condemned for lack of good works.
