The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men
Blessed is he who, in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of darkness, for he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children

what's this got to do with Catholics requiring you actually prove you're a good person before you're worthy of Heaven?

you assume Heaven is something you can buy your way in with "good deeds" but that is not how it works, since you have to actually be sincere in your good deeds and not just be thinking of them as a benefit to you

Protestantism is so stupid.

Therefore, from the day we heard this, we do not cease praying for you and asking that you may be filled with the knowledge of his will through all spiritual wisdom and understanding
to live in a manner worthy of the Lord, so as to be fully pleasing, in every good work bearing fruit and growing in the knowledge of God,
strengthened with every power, in accord with his glorious might, for all endurance and patience, with joy
giving thanks to the Father, who has made you fit to share in the inheritance of the holy ones in light.
He delivered us from the power of darkness and transferred us to the kingdom of his beloved Son,
in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins.

1 Corinthians 13 is objectively the best Bible chapter

>If I speak in the tongues of mortals and of angels, but do not have love, I am a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal. 2 And if I have prophetic powers, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have all faith, so as to remove mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing. 3 If I give away all my possessions, and if I hand over my body so that I may boast,[a] but do not have love, I gain nothing.

>4 Love is patient; love is kind; love is not envious or boastful or arrogant 5 or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; 6 it does not rejoice in wrongdoing, but rejoices in the truth. 7 It bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.

>things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.

8 Love never ends. But as for prophecies, they will come to an end; as for tongues, they will cease; as for knowledge, it will come to an end. 9 For we know only in part, and we prophesy only in part; 10 but when the complete comes, the partial will come to an end. 11 When I was a child, I spoke like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child; when I became an adult, I put an end to childish ways. 12 For now we see in a mirror, dimly,[b] but then we will see face to face. Now I know only in part; then I will know fully, even as I have been fully known. 13 And now faith, hope, and love abide, these three; and the greatest of these is love.

Genesis 18:10-15
The Lord said, “I will surely return to you in the spring, and Sarah your wife shall have a son.” And Sarah was listening at the tent door behind him.
Now Abraham and Sarah were old, advanced in age; it had ceased to be with Sarah after the manner of women.
So Sarah laughed to herself, saying, “After I have grown old, and my husband is old, shall I have pleasure?”
The Lord said to Abraham, “Why did Sarah laugh, and say, ‘Shall I indeed bear a child, now that I am old?’ Is anything too difficult or wonderful for the Lord? At the appointed time I will return to you, in the spring, and Sarah shall have a son.”
But Sarah denied, saying, “I did not laugh”; for she was afraid.
He said, “No, but you did laugh.”

In all charity I have to express my surprise and astonishment that fellow Christians don’t believe that Christ wanted his Church to be One, Holy, Catholic, and Apostolic. Do my brethren truly believe that this multiplication of diverse theologies is desirable to our Lord?

And I say to thee: That thou art Peter; and upon this rock I will build my church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. And I will give to thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven. And whatsoever thou shalt bind upon earth, it shall be bound also in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose upon earth, it shall be loosed also in heaven.

Instead of making enormous theological doctrines based on one metaphor-laden verse you might want to cross-reference it first with other scriptures that it's referring to. If you think all of the Old Testament prophecies above were about Peter you're a heretic and retarded. The Bible is very clear Jesus is the foundation stone of the Church and Peter was (chronologically) the first "stone" to be added to to the building which constitutes the body of believers.

>And upon THIS ROCK (referring to himself, see above scriptures) I will build my Church

The "Church" is founded upon Jesus spiritually and the Bible defines NT churches (as they pertain to an institutional body) as simply an assembly of Believers.

The Catholic Church did not "assemble" the Bible.

Here's a quote by Jesus that Catholics do not believe

John 8:47
>He that is of God heareth God's words: ye therefore hear them not, because ye are not of God.

Saved people can spiritually discern what is, and what is not, God's word. Catholics love going to (Catholic) history books to "prove" that the Bible wouldn't exist without them, and that no one even knew what was Inspired without them, and yet apparently everyone from the Old Testament era knew that 2 Chronicles, Song of Solomon, Isaiah, etc. were divinely inspired but things like the Book of Jasher, Enoch, Annals of King David, etc. were not as Jesus repeatedly held people to the standards of
>Is it not written in your law
>ye do err, not knowing the scripture
>Man cannot live by bread alone but every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God
>and the scripture cannot be broken
which means people had to pretty clearly know what was and wasn't God's word otherwise this standard Jesus held them was completely lunatic and insane.

Hmm... How would people figure out which of these were and were not true prior to the Catholic Church? It's almost like he that is of God heareth God's word.

The reason that even hyper-religious Catholics have to go running to (again, self-made) history books and not the Bible is because, like the Pharisees, they don't hear God's word because they're not even saved and so have to go running to vain traditions and the teachings of men.

Multiple Church Fathers and even some Popes did not believe that the Apocryphal books were inspired.

The Council of Trent was not until the 16th century and then Catholics declared that they ALWAYS infallibly held the Apocryphal books to be inspired even though they never did and you had multiple "Church Fathers" disagreeing with each other.

Highlights include Pope Gregory the Great, Jerome (who along with Origen were the only two "Church Fathers" who were fluent in both Hebrew and Greek, neither accepting the Apocyrpha), and Athanasius.

God exists, and yet the fact we do not see him is a perfectly valid reason to doubt his existence. Christianity is the only religion that explains why God exists but apparently chooses to hide himself (so to speak) from his own creation.

This is because fundamentally God wants to see men and how they act if they think they aren't being actively watched over. It's not exactly a test of your character if you don't cheat on your wife if she's staring at you right there, any more than it would be a test of your character if you literally saw some irate man in the clouds staring you down every time you were about to sin.

Hebrews 11:1
>Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.

>replies consist of TL;DR and 'ugh I cant even'
Here's the TL;DR:
Christ demands that you forgive those who seek penance, and seek out ways to make it so you can do so through kindness. He also demands that you refuse to accept sin where you see it in, and to always stand against it and take action against it and those who would gleefully sin without a care otherwise, and that 'Christians' who lambast others for their intolerance of sin, and treat Christ like he was the Buddha, are actually retards because Christ was someone who equal parts condemned as he did forgive

Hes not nice because niceness implies your ultimate desire is not to disrupt anyone else
Jesus was extremely disruptive and actively challenged the conceptions of everyone around him, which is why he was murdered

If Jesus was nice he would have stayed a carpenter

>My dude, read a fucking book.

I've pretty clearly studied the issue. So the question for Catholic apologists becomes whether they're just parroting what a Priest told them without bothering to look anything up for themselves or if they're deliberately lying through their teeth and going "hurf yeah that's what we've ALWAYS believed" even though you literally have your own fucking Popes saying the the Apocryphal books were not inspired, the Translator of your Bible, and dozens of "Church Fathers" spanning centuries.

And then plus we have the Bible itself and we don't find ONE example in the New Testament of any qualifier of "Thus saith the Lord". "As it is written", etc. for anything you could even remotely connect to the Apocryphal books.

but hey if you're desperate to rewrite history to support the validity of your cult it's on you.

>If saved people can tell what was divinely inspired, was nobody saved before the reformation?

Well unfortunately 99.99% of the saved people (a concept you people do not think exists) from before the Reformation could not read as the Catholic Church burned people to death for owning copies of the Bible written in their own language, suppressed literacy for anyone who wasn't already a part of their Clergy, and actively put death warrants out on anyone who tried to translate it into anything other than Latin. They did this not because of some Scriptural reason or because it was write, but because if you're a bunch of robed liars running a Cash4Heaven™ scheme in your cult it behooves you to stop anyone from having the capacity to challenge your authority by appealing to the Bible for how blasphemous and heretical your practices are.

Pic related Catholics burning William Tyndale alive for translating the Bible into English. I'm sure Jesus is so proud of you all and would have done the same thing. :')

1 To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven:

2 A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted;

3 A time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up;

4 A time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance;

5 A time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together; a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing;

6 A time to get, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away;

7 A time to rend, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence, and a time to speak;

8 A time to love, and a time to hate; a time of war, and a time of peace.
