“excatholic4christ” (Tom) was raised Catholic, lost his faith in high school, attended Mass for a while after he married and had children, and Anti-Catholic Tom is over his head in grappling with the NT concept of tradition (parádosis). I cite two reputable Protestant linguistic works against him.
Including: How Far Away Were the Cities that the Jerusalem Council Bound to its Decrees? “excatholic4christ” (Tom) was raised Catholic, lost his faith in Anti-Catholic Tom just doesn't understand the Catholic rule of faith and our method of interpreting Scripture. I explain the biblical parallel of Catholic authority.
Including "Straight Talk" on the Catholic and Protestant Inquisitions “excatholic4christ” (Tom) was raised Catholic, lost his faith in high school, Anti-Catholic Tom concedes that the Bible teaches required doctrinal unity among Christians, but then oddly proceeds to argue for Protestant relativism and chaos.
Including the Biblical Conception of "Saints" and "Sinners" “excatholic4christ” (Tom) was raised Catholic, lost his faith in high school, attended Mass Anti-Catholic Tom is out to sea in his brief examination of the issue of "sinners in the Church." I take a deeper look at the Bible's teaching regarding "sinners" & "saints."
Also: the Ten Commandments in the New Covenant; Church Fathers On the Binding Nature of the Council of Nicaea "excatholic4christ" (Tom) was raised Anti-Catholic Tom draws all the wrong conclusions about the Jerusalem Council & its implications for later Catholic ecclesiology, & about legitimate good works.
