Q. Why doesn’t he say, “So, the bricks of my chimney sinned …”? A. Because he knows the text is not about inanimate objects. Q. But if he knows it’s not about inanimate objects, he must know it is about human beings. So, then why does he bring up an angel? A. Because he’s
So St. Michael, the Archangel, sinned and fell short of the glory of God… Brilliant 👌🏻

Quoting individual Bible verses to support your unbiblical ideas is satanic

"Given the necessity of explaining Mary’s subordinate role to Christ in the work of Redemption, it is always inappropriate to use the title “Co-redemptrix” to define Mary’s cooperation." - Cardinal Fernandez as Prefect for the Dicastery of the Doctrine of the Faith (and approved

This is just wildly wrong. Just go to the Joseph Smith paper and search the term, “Abolition.”
A key reason Latter-day Saints were violently attacked and driven from Missouri in the 1830s was their rejection of slavery. They refused to accept it as compatible with the gospel of Jesus Christ. Later, Joseph Smith ran for president with a plan to end slavery in America.

Does the plan of salvation include Muslims? I bet they (nearly) all answer that one correctly.
Daily reminder that Evangelicals lie when they claim they don’t disagree on matters of salvation:

Also them: Muslims worship the same god as us …
On Halloween 1517, a demon rose out of Saxony with the aim of destroying God's Church forever. The effort failed, but millions of souls have been lost since.

Definitely not. John was entombed by his disciples: “his disciples heard of it, they came and took up his corpse, and laid it in a tomb.” Burial is the Christian tradition, not this macabre nonsense.

Pseudo-Dionysius the Areopagite was a Greek author of the late 5th century or early 6th century. He is not the guy from Mars’ Hill, mentioned in Acts, as has been known since the time of the legendary scholar Lorenzo Valla (d. 1457).
St. Dionysius the Areopagite, who was converted by St. Paul in the Book of Acts, in his work “On Ecclesiastical Hierarchy” already had the three roles of Deacon, Presbyter, and Bishop. He even connected these roles to the three steps in the spiritual life: purification,

God and Man in two distinct natures, but one person. That is how.
Genuine question to creedal Christians... God is immutable - He cannot change, correct? And God is impassible - He is without passions, correct? And Jesus is God, right? If this is the case, how can you say Jesus sacrificed for us? It seems to me that on your view, Jesus

Presbyter and Bishop are interchangeable. “Priest” is etymologically related to presbuteros but it is not equivalent in meaning. It’s a false friend.
Guess where the English word Priest comes from… that’s right, πρεσβύτερος (presbyter) often translated as elder in the NT. So, Bishops, Priests, and Deacons are all from the foundation of the Church. Does your church have them? Do they have a succession back to the Apostles?

If we lit candles in front of our Bibles, had little Bible shrines, made kissing the Bible mandatory … we still wouldn’t be there, because the Bible is not a likeness of anything in the heavens above or the earth beneath or the waters under the earth. The objection in this meme
