Catholics vs. Evangelicals?
#31
RE: Catholics vs. Evangelicals?
Okay, I've heard a bunch of atheists and a few Catholics talk about what Evangelical Christians believe or do not believe.  First off, you have to understand what a Christian is and what a Christian is not.  Christian is a term that means 'little Christ'.  Therefore, a Christian is someone who follows the teachings of Jesus Christ, the Son of God.  Second, since the Bible, and Jesus, teaches that we are saved by grace alone, through faith alone, in Christ Jesus alone.  The RCC does not teach this doctrine, which is the single only thing that makes one a Christian.  All other doctrines are secondary, are not essential for salvation.  So, therefore, the premise of this post is based on a false assumption.  Next, the term evangelist refers to someone who shares their beliefs.  Therefore, any Christian, as defined above, who shares their faith, is in fact, an Evangelical Christian.

Now, you know which is worst.  Evangelicals are far worst, because, out of love, we wish that no one will suffer for eternity.  If you were drowning, would you want someone to throw you a life preserver,  even though you don't believe in life preservers? Out of love, we must throw that life preserver to those who are drowning.  Not only does our God wish it, but we, who know the love of Christ, wish to love our neighbors to the point that they understand the need for a Savior and turn to Christ and live.
