Yes... again, not a lot of reason to live.
if anything more reason to live for as little time as possible
However we do not instantly go to heaven when we accept Him because He still has a purpose for our life on this Earth. We are called to make disciples so other can receive the same good news we have in our hearts. God has a purpose for all of us and can use us in ways we will never fully understand till we get to heaven.
Jesus said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me
We can not save someone but we can still tell them about the Gospile and if they accept Christ lead them in the faith.
You can either choose to begin your life in heaven here on earth now, or you can choose to begin your life in hell here now. Even with the suffering (and no one knows the depths suffering more than Christ) , there is still the goodness of God in all creation if you look for Him.
A painful purpose we didnt really sign up for at birth.
You can thank Adam for that when you@see him
We all made the decision to sin and thus deserve the punishment of hell.
The suffering is a gift as well
"I will not judge the sins of the father on the son."
God teaches us so much through suffering
Yes
We are stained with Original Sin from conception.
I know I have been for the last 13 years.
All of creation has been couropted by sin, only after death will be be purified.
Yes we established that
Washed away at baptism but the wound is still there and Concupiscence
Baptism by itself doesn’t save you
Make a habit of writing out each day ten things you are grateful for. That is how I started after hitting rock bottom.
You have to accept Jesus into your heart and acknowledge he is the son of God and he died for the sins of humanity
What about people who haven’t reached the age of reason?
Then god should block conception
That’s what we call “the culture of death”
I’m going to see what the Bible says about it I’ll brb
Baptism is a Sacrament. An official sign from God
He does, we call that "still-birth". "Mechanically" amen and awoman can reproduce,, but without God's stamp of approval, it won't have life.
Yeah... no
thats speculation completely there
The bible says children who cannot decide will be saved out of mercy
thus kids who die durring birth are saved
In Romans 1:20 Paul describes recipients of general revelation as being “without excuse.” They can’t blame their unbelief on a lack of evidence. There is sufficient revelation of God’s existence in the natural order to establish the moral accountability of all who witness it. Might this imply that those who are not recipients of general revelation (i.e., infants) are therefore not accountable to God or subject to wrath? In other words, wouldn’t those who die in infancy have an “excuse” in that they neither receive general revelation nor have the capacity to respond to it?
I wasn't attacking any though
You were talking about how it's not valid
How the pope was worshipped and stuff
All i said for any one to read beware what teaching you hear thats all
From the moment of conception, the soul is infused into the body. That soul is immortal and belongs to God. It is possible for a person who has never known the public revelation of Christ to fall into sin: that is by breaking what is called the Natural Law. The normal conscience (right/wrong) that all people possess. So I guess I’m trying to say the same thing a different way. Yes, they have an excuse. But they still would have to come to God with that stain of Original Sin to account for if they were not baptized.
But we hope and trust in His Divine Mercy that he would take pity on them
That quote is also interesting— it can be taken at face value, but Jesus was speaking with just his disciples at that point, and not to the crowd. So what he means is that there will be a very bad place to go for the shepherd who forbids “the little ones”, the sheep to come to Him.
