QUESTION: For example, show me biblical proof for the saints worship. where I can find that in bible?
ANSWER: Dear Carlos:

I cannot show biblical proof for saint worship because we are not to worship any being besides the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

QUESTION: so, why are the churchs with a lot of saints images? why people worship Maria, Jesus mother? Isn't catholic this? Where do you find biblical proof against the worship at sabbath? where do you find biblical proof against the adventists beliefs?!
How do you comment the behaviour of catholic church in middle age?! where is biblical proof that the pope is representing God in Earth?
If you show me something contudent, I'll believe!

Answer
Dear Carlos:

Having images in Church and worshipping those images are two different subjects. Catholics that worship Mary are sinning because the Catholic Church does not approve such worship. We do give Mary honor and respect as the Mother of God.

There is no biblical proof against Christians worshipping on the Jewish Sabbath. St. Paul is extremely clear that in the New Covenant it does not matter what day one wishes to worship on (see Romans 14:5). The New Testament indicates that the first Christians were not fixated on any particular day for worship (see Acts 2:46). Therefore, one may worship on the Jewish Sabbath, but one may not make it a salvation issue since there is no biblical evidence for that either.

The websites that I gave you earlier will provide mountains of evidence against many SDA beliefs. Please review them.

I will not defend sinfulness in the Catholic Church. It is a shame, but sin is in the Church because we are all sinful people. There have been some very sad times in Catholic history because of this sinfulness.

The proof that the Pope is God’s representative on earth is found is Matthew 16:18-19 & John 21:15-17.

Best Wishes,
Sal

I love the Catholic Church and her book, the Bible. I will try to answer your questions with an emphasis on God*s Word. I believe the Catholic Church is the Church established by Jesus Christ for the salvation of the world. I can answer questions pertaining to the biblical basis for Catholic beliefs. I can also explain the beliefs of Jehovah*s Witnesses, Mormons, and Seventh Day Adventists as related to Catholic doctrine.
