patrick j miron personal interpretation of scripture

 

2^nd. Peter 1: 16-21  “You will do well to pay attention to this as to a lamp shining in a dark place, until the day dawns and the morning star rises in your hearts.

 First of all you must understand this, that no prophecy of scripture is a matter of one's own interpretation,  

FACTS:

1. Only Peter and the CC through him have been GRANTED the “keys”

 [ALL THAT IS NECESSARY for one’s own salvation] 

by Jesus Himself in person…Matt. 16:15-19

2.  The term “church” was first introduced by Jesus Himself in 

Matt. 16:18 “And I [Jesus] tell you, you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my church,” [SINGULAR]

The Protestant position claims that Catholic’s “ARE FACTUALLY Idolaters” … Is founded on  a serious lack of understanding that Catholics prayers  to Mary and the Saints ARE meant for them alone. Such is NOT THE TRUTH! Our prayers still ascend to GOD, but  through Mary and the Saints as intercessors, which according to the understanding of Thomas makes this practice “idolatry.”

 because no prophecy ever came by the impulse of man, but men moved by the Holy Spirit spoke from God.”

WHY don’t Protestants pray to saints? …

 Because the bible tells us not too

 [“because they are idols.”]

“To answer the Catholic argument that “saints do answer prayers” with miracles,

 we must respond that spiritual manifestations [including miracles] can come from two different places: God, or the Devil and his demons.” …

 THIS FRIENDS IS A SPIRITUAL IMPOSSIBILITY. JUST AS GOD CANNOT CAUSE EVIL DIRECTLY; SATAN IS LIMITED BY GOD IN WHAT HE CAN accomplish IN GOD’S NAME. 

A friendly word of caution to our -Catholic friends

2Cor.11:13 to 15 “For such men are false apostles, like patrick j miron

 [NOTE: There can logically only be One Truth per precise issue.

 What are the odds that the truth didn’t happen for 1, 500 YEARS after the Bible had been written?] deceitful workmen, 

disguising themselves as apostles of Christ. 

And no wonder, for even Satan disguises himself as an angel of light. So it is not strange if his servants also disguise themselves as servants of righteousness.

 [Perhaps unknowingly]  

Their end will correspond to their deeds.”
