Re: Are all Catholics lost?
dont get me wrong, i wouldn't go around saying 'don't worry about all that Jesus stuff' or anything...the point is that God does not use your yardstick, and it is presumptuous to pretend to God's place. If you have some Scripture that you feel is mandatory then by all means follow it, and be sure in your own mind, but recognize that you are going to be measured against other tenets of your stated belief, and it doesn't matter if what you believe is strictly true or not, if you are a hypocrite, and we have many, many indications that if your heart is right--which might closely follow our euphemism of 'heart in the right place' for all anyone knows--your doctrine is secondary.
There is no other Name under heaven by which you might be saved might mean Christ claims you, when we envision only us claiming Christ, although both have a place. It might also be a warning against other spirits, which would produce different fruit, not unto repentance, hence you will know them by their fruit.
