He said these 20 canons of Nicaea are valuable because there are various Protestant myths going around, such as the Adventists saying Nicaea changed the sabbath from Saturday to Sunday, which we can see is nowhere taught in these Canons. The Christian day of Worship, Sunday, was never confused with the Mosaic Sabbath.Nickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01453168437883536663noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4588905705506605875.post-64681307203118450412017-06-27T10:34:09.543-07:002017-06-27T10:34:09.543-07:00Usury is still a sin, and the Church is still agai...Usury is still a sin, and the Church is still against it. I don't know where you read the Church is now in favor of it. <br /><br />I think the biggest problem today on this matter is that Usury is so widespread and part of so much of our transactions, that it's difficult to even recognize when it's being engaged in.

If the Catholic Church at one time taught that is was a sin to exact interest on loans, but it now teaches that it's morally permissible, then how can it be said that the Church teaches infallibly on matters of faith and morals? I'm sure there is a good logical explanation, but I don't know what it is. Can you point me in the right direction? <br /><br />ThanksAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4588905705506605875.post-26945573772361014162017-01-09T22:12:52.507-08:002017-01-09T22:12:52.507-08:00Hello Mark,

In response to your question, I'd say it depends on the Protestant you're talking to, because not all will be that unfair. The fact is, there are some pretty significant doctrines that both Protestants and Catholics accept that only have one verse to support them. The biggest one I can think of is when Jesus told us to Baptize "in the Name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit," which is found only in Matthew 28:18. If a Protestant cannot grant that sometimes we only have one verse, then there's not much more you can say, because they're just being unreasonable and using a double standard. <br /><br />Nickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01453168437883536663noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4588905705506605875.post-67912298562585610062017-01-09T08:09:04.345-08:002017-01-09T08:09:04.345-08:00Another great post, Nick!
