The Following Is The Position Of Vatican Council II On The Rosary: " 'The contemplative life of religious would be incomplete if it were not directed in filial love towards her who is the Mother of the Church and of consecrated souls. This love for the Virgin will be manifested with the celebration of her feasts and, in particular, with daily prayer in her honour, especially the Rosary. The daily recitation of the Rosary is a centuries-old tradition for religious, and so it is not out of place to recall the suitability, beauty and efficacy of this prayer, which proposes for our meditation the mysteries of the Lord's life' " (Vatican Council II, Vol. 2, p.251.) About being born again the catholics teach: Furthermore, getting "born again" in the minds of many Catholics occurred at the point of their infant baptism! In light of their present-day definition of being "born again" through INFANT BAPTISM(Vatican II, Vol. 2, p.561), all Catholics informed about this teaching, without exception, can confidently call themselves "born again" and with a clear conscience!

Thanks! It's wrong to worship Marry, but we should worship God. Marry is just a human being. As to 'being born again',we are born again from spirit, not "through INFANT BAPTISM". God bless!

The difference between Catholic is rather easy. Catholics don't really totally belive in Christ. We are told in Ephesians 1 that God gave Christ to be head over all things to the church. The Bible nowhere authorizes a human "vicar" to be the human head of the church. Christ never gave His authority over to a Pope. Cardinal is not a Biblical office in the church. And, I can go on and on. There is no way to be Catholic and Christian at the same time. But, the same can be said about all man-made denominations. Jesus purchsed the church with his blood. The church belongs to Christ. He owns the church. Only he has any authority in the church. This is something that's impossible for a Catholic to believe. If they did, they wouldn't be Catholic.

Hello,Bonn is very right.I've done some reading and i've realized that catholic is made up of more roman culture than the bible.It is rome that changed the day of praying from saturday to sunday.They killed many true christians who refused to follow this change.Romans used to worship the sun god on sundays.

Well, God said that only God can forgive sins, the catholic church puts herself into that position as if all would depend on her and her authority. They used it as a tool to control the believers. We are supposed to forgive our next person and forgiving will set the person of guilt free from the bondage the enemy is holding onto him in case we don't forgive that person. All in all the forgiveness however is by the grace of God, which he showed us in His Son Jesus Christ.
