Catholics for Israel

Even after reading the bible and the CCC from cover to cover, it sometimes, as if by magic, we see a verse illuminated all of the sudden. I am humbled by God's greatness. At awe by His splendor, power, and glory.

God did not just saw but already knew Mama Mary way way before she even existed. This ...

Greetings,

This is not a thesis or an issue but rather a question that I just noticed it this morning. Please help.

Was Mama Mary mentioned in the OT as early as the Genesis 3 right after the fall of man? When I woke up this morning and as I read a verse or two from the Bible I noticed this verse ...

I find this video very informative and funny as well. These guys hit the spot in just about 3 mins. This video is just to add to the wealth of information in this website.

Eli,

Can't help but to jump in into this discussion.

In addition to what Ariel wrote... the Church almost never uses the term "symbol" . In fact St. Augustine in the 4th century defined the term sacrament as "a sign of sacred reality" and as "a visible word" (communication from God). They are not ...

I just wanted to add that many Jews and messianic Jews who have become Catholics did so because of the Eucharist. By this i mean they had a spiritual experience of the Real Presence in the Catholic church. this is why I became a Catholic and I know many other Jews that did also. The Catholic church ...

Adding to Ariel's post on Protestant

Luke 22:31-32
" 31 Simon, Simon, behold, Satan has demanded to sift all of you like wheat. 32 But I have prayed that your own faith may not fail; and once you have turned back, you must strengthen your brothers. "

The Christians were indeed sifted like wheat ...

Greetings to everyone and hello to Ariel, Mikemac, and Hadassah. And peace be with you murraym.

murraym, I think the first thing you should do is to check with the nearest Israeli Consulate to explore all available options for your return.

Now if your underlying concern(s) are discrimination or ...

I think it should not be viewed as political but rather as a message of love which Christ Himself so heavily emphasized. However, I think most likely both sides will represent it this way. The Holy father is studiously avoiding taking sides. He is advocating peace, reconciliation, mutual respect ...

If you don't mind...this is my opinion...

I really think that the answer to all our questions is the love of God above everything else. If I look at the cross, I see PURE LOVE. A Loving sacrifies. If we look at the 10 commandments and the judicial law, I think this is meant only for one purpose ...

Hello Mike,

I am writing because I felt I need to clarify things. Ariel might give me the looks again for my answer will be long <<<smiling>>>. I am sure he will understand.

Brother Mike, please do not give another interpretation to what I have written. It was intended to give harmony and not to ...

Well taken. I am truly sorry if I have offended your mission. The mission of this forum Catholics for Israel. Its core principles and goals. But if you read my post, isn't that what I am doing?

My brothers in Christ, persons of authority in this site, please delete all my post if it does not ...

My brothers & sisters in Christ. Pray. Pray. Pray. Pray without ceasing. Pray like there is no tomorrow. Wear your prayers every day. Pray for those who persecute you. Pray for all sinners like you and me. Pray for the souls deceived by satan that they may come back & rediscover God while there is ...

An excellent EXCELLENT question Fidesetratio. Let us dissect your question then so that we can better understand. Note that I will answer your question two folds. First is why we had the Mosaic Law and second, the answer to your question if the Law came from God or from Moses.

Old Covenant crime ...

So true brother Mike. I myself wonder how much hatred evil has for our God. his (satan) grasp on this world is so tight that he won't rest even for a second. Can you imagine the hatred he has for God? the father of all lies (the serpent) is cunning. We must always put our guard up.

Anyways let us ...

Hello my brothers and sisters in Christ.

I felt I need to add more emphasis on how we Catholics begin to gather, worship, participate, and join the angels and saints with God in the Eucharistic, liturgical celebration of the mass every Sunday. Personally, I feel drawn to our Sunday Catholic Mass ...

My brother,

Peace be with you too. May God Almighty's Glory and Holiness shine upon our souls.

Yes we are. Through baptism (Ephesians Chapters 1 to 3 is dedicated to this) makes us 'partakers' of the Divine Nature of God. It draws us into a close relationship with God that even Moses on top of Mt ...

"Do not think that I have come to abolish the law or the prophets. I have come not to abolish but to fulfill." Matthew 5: 17.

If the prophets of the old testaments points to Jesus as the Messiah, AND if the Messiah Himself says that He did not come to abolish in anyway the old covenant ritual but ...

Hello to all. I have just registered. It is wonderful and I am elated to have seen your forum.

To answer the topic at hand, I have to go back right from the beginning. The key to understanding everything about God is be like a little child - trusting, loving, and obeying. Loving a perfect God with ...
