God creates us with free will to choose, allowing us the freedom to seek the good and truth.
The Brown Scapular
Q: Will the Brown Scapular help with devotion to Mary?
Yes, it signifies one's consecration to Mary and is ideally accompanied by formal consecration practices.
Apostacy, Heresy and Schism
Q: What does Canon Law say about being withheld from receiving communion?
A person who has rejected a teaching of the church is guilty of heresy, and if they publicly manifest this, they can be refused communion.
Apostacy, Heresy and Schism
Q: Can the priest change the gospel for inclusive language?
No, he can't. The scriptures are approved by the church and that should not change.
Apostacy, Heresy and Schism
Q: Why is baptism necessary for salvation?
Because our Lord tells us in John 3, unless you are born again by water in the Holy Spirit, you shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven.
