Wow! That's interesting.

Boy, if I were young again, I'd love to go to Franciscan University in Steubanville

You mean you are too old? Seems M Luther mentioned something about that ehehe

"If I were younger I would want to learn this language [i.e. Hebrew], for without it one can never properly understand the Holy Scripture….
For that reason they have said correctly: 'The Jews drink out of the original spring, The Greeks drink out of the stream flowing out of the stream, The Latins, however, out of the puddle.'"
--Martin Luther (1483-1546)

LOL. Sure. I'm not mad.

Off course, I'm not mad at Ghandi either, but that doesn't mean I'll become a Hindu.

 

[Seeking Him]

Although I am not Catholic, I've read Hahn's books and listen to Him on EWTN. Mike Aquilina's book on the Church Fathers is also good.

"A Father Who Always Keeps His Promises" is excellent. I like his teaching on the covenants.

"The Father wanted to convince his children "heirs of the promise," that He is absolutely faithful, unchangeable in character. He knew the Israelites were surrounded by peoples with fickle gods, benevolent one day, and vindictive the next. Why should the Hebrews not expect more of the same? No wonder God went to such great lengths to convince His people that He was different. He swore an oath to strengthen their trust, accomodating himself to their weakness of faith, in His initial word of promise. Like the Hebrews, we need to hold on to hope as a "sure anchor of the soul", especially since we have a better covenant."

"The basic message God wants to convey by covenant can be stated simply:" I love you. I am commited to you. I swear I will never forsake you. You are mine and I am yours. I am your father and your family." How astonishing that the creator has such a profound love for His creatures!" - Scott Hahn

Very beautiful! But not enough for me to join the Catholic Church as all churches, including the EO have very beautifull writings from their Patriarchs.

All to the Glory of Him!!!

Reve 15:3 And they are singing the song of Moses the bond-servant of the God and the song of the lambkin saying "great and marvelous the works of Thee Lord! the God the Almighty/pantokratwr <3841>, just and true the ways of Thee the King of the saints/*ages/*nations.

Lamb, the guy is a Methodist. He's not trying to make you Catholic. LOL

You mean Scott Hahn?
So he didn't become a Catholic or is a Catholic now? If not, then I apologize for the inference. I sometimes tend to get confused when it comes to Denominations

NO! I mean "seeking him", the poster you responded to when you said "Very beautiful! But not enough for me to join the Catholic Church"

You ought to give the videos a listen when you have the time. Come on, give them a spin for me - just once.

 

[Seeking Him]

Although I do think doctrine is important, I like what Watchmen Nee (Protestant) says:

"People can be mentally convinced of doctrinal correctness, or emotionally stirred, but spirit must touch Spirit."

"Edification is when our spirit contacts God's Spirit. It doesn't matter through whom or what He moves, but I will be built up, edified, nourished and revived."

I've been through a time of some trials, and God has used many Catholic brethren to speak to me. As Fr. Benedict Groeschel says: mercy, mercy, mercy.

Father Groeschel is pretty good, isn't he.

Sometimes he can have a wry sense of humor too

I have read most of Dr. Hahn's books and have heard his debates with some of the top protestant scholars and apologist. I think he is awesome. I think many anti-Catholics( like James McCarthy) are against him because over the last 20 years he has literally helped thousands of protestants come into the fullness of truth in the Catholic church via his lectures, books, tapes, and debates. He has helped many former Catholics return to their Catholic faith and see how biblical, logical, and historical it is.

Jesus Christ definately had a plan for him in the new evangelization promoted by Vatican council II and Both John Paul II and Benedict XVI.
