nowhere in the Holy Bible does it say salvation comes through the Catholic Church.
Salvation comes through Jesus Christ ONLY.

Protestants, where in the Bible does it say that salvation comes through faith alone?


Careful, it is a trick question| Where it says: "The just man lives by faith alone." (Rom. 1:17), let it be duly noted that the correct rendering is: "The just man lives by faith - full stop!"

It is a known fact that Luther added the word "alone" to that text, thus changing its meaning| (He slipped that in there, fooling people into thinking that he did that just to clarify the text, but in reality he did that to change what it says - clever devil - Eh?)|


Look to these scriptural passages for a rebuttal to Sola Fide:


James 2:26 - straw epistle, I know, but is it still not one of the 66 books that you Protestants accept as valid Scripture?; Matt 25:31-46 - Here Our Lord indicates that how we treat others has a bearing on His judgment of us; 1 John 3:15 - Amazing, one who hates his brother is a murderer and eternal life abides in no murderer's heart - how do you square sola fide with that one?; and 1 Cor. 13:2 - if you have faith and not love you are nothing, how then does God value faith alone and deem it sufficient for salvation (which logically implies that love is not required - only faith?)|


And then there is the common sense argument|

I know some people who believe that all you have to do is believe in Jesus (and the one or two other things that the sinner's prayer mentions), and then not only are you saved, but also there is no possibility of you losing your salvation| Now many of these very same people believe that the only purpose on this earth is to get rich and that they can treat others any way they want| The question is, would a god who deems such a person as justified be a good god - or even an intelligent god - or a god who has more common sense than we do, as traditional theistic theology teaches?


I think that it is being revealed that people who prided themselves on their intelligence and good sense are finding that, in reality, they have been heavily programmed.

Catholics seem to think that they have the authority to make up whatever set of rules fits the bill. They use the same scripture as midge here has used. Whatsoever you bind on earth etc. But they leave out the scripture "Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven" Matthew 6:10. The people of God want His will do be done and not their own. Catholics have put their trust in a man who sits in a chair thats supposed to make him holy. But all it really does is make him an Antichrist. The true people of God put their trust in the will of God and continually seek Gods will.

PS. You can forget about getting any scripture from these people.They don't read the Bible and know only what they have been told.God Bless !

"What you bind On Earth shall be bound in Heaven and what you loose on Earth shall be loosened in Heaven." Also , in the book of Esther you read where the Queen intercedes for her people -- This is the Church. Also where Solomon is going to cut the baby in half because one woman says the Child is hers after her baby is dead and then the real Mother of the Child says " Let, her have the baby , --for the life of the child" This is also the Church. When the Church decreed that baptism may come in three forms -- Water, blood, and desire, she was in effect legitimizing some of the other denominations baptisms. "For the life of the child"

The very same place where it says that Salvation only comes from being Christian.

There is no verse, because there is no "right" religion. Salvation comes from loving yourself and loving your God-center. Believe me, God wouldn't have allowed humankind to differ in thoughts, beliefs, lifestyles, and so forth if there was only one "right way" to everything.

Salvation is for everybody just as long as you follow your conscience and I think that almost any catholic would agree with this.
