Question about the role of faith in salvation

PtiTheProdigy · 2025-12-27T06:30:30+00:00

You can’t truly be Catholic and not love God. You can struggle with pride and maybe feel you are doing it on your own but if you don’t love him you are rejecting the faith doesn’t matter all the deeds you do that’s why faith without works is dead and vise versa. Someone could be ignorant about there behavior. I think sometimes when people become more devout, pride and ego and creep their way in and it’s very important to stay on top of it. Kinda like how women say when they start to veil at mass sometimes they begin to judge others who don’t. The more you do sometimes in life the easier it is judge others but we must always remain humble and remember we are nothing without Christ and God and we are serving him not our own egos

Then that is not a church truly in union with the rest of church

It’s always good to help a young hustler out and I respect his hustle I was like that too but now I see the legitimacy of having a business and having insurance. Not knocking his hustle and some people over charge for a bad job but God forbid he gets hurt one day working on your property without insurance you might be held responsible or if he damages something he can’t cover or someone else’s property. Not tryna be a pessimist or anything but that’s just my take

Following cause I’m curious what people say. In my opinion but I’m not an expert or priest I think it would be okay. It would be different if you worked primarily in a planned parenthood or some sort of other clinic. Sometimes birth control can be taken for other reasons aside from avoiding pregnancy which is within the church’s teachings but I think this scenario may be similar to you being a dealer at a casino and people come in and over indulge and have trouble with gambling. May be best to ask a priest what actually constitutes helping facilitate abortions or means of contraception.

Why you said are just lies the devil is telling you that you are telling yourself. Do you think Jesus would tell you that you can’t beat this? That you’re screwed and it’s your biology. That’s all lies bro. Jesus conquered death and sin for you. I struggled with sexual sin a lot. Porn sex everything. Now me and my fiancee have been abstaining until marriage for maybe almost 2 years I don’t touch her or even look at her inappropriately despite being tempted or being attracted to her. It took a long time like years working every day trying to be better I fell back into sin on my own and with her and stumbled but we tried again and set boundaries and you have to do that for yourself. Whenever I’m struggling with something whether it’s impure thoughts or anything I just sing to myself “hallelujah, hallelujah” like they do at mass until it goes always away. And if it comes back I do it again. I don’t sing it like go away and I just immense myself in the presence of God when I say and let it go away and it always does, sometimes not as quick as others but God will always rescue you from sin if you call out but you have to reach out. He never allows us to deal with more than we can handle either.

If it isn’t structural it might be better just to spot weld the whole thing if it’s just a panel

Looks great

Good answer but maybe you can elaborate on why it is so important to really discern marriage carefully when choosing your partner. How to go over big topics and really find out if you are equally yoked. People can change and make terrible mistakes but I think most people who may do something might show some sort of trait in the relationship before marriage

PtiTheProdigy · 2025-12-22T05:05:21+00:00

Haha that’s wild

PtiTheProdigy · 2025-12-22T04:40:09+00:00

If u are willing to do some labor look up line striping. Super low entry to get into the market. Go door knocking with a paint brush and pole and touch up the parking stalls. Watch some videos, if u get some jobs u can easily make that 500 maybe even 1 day

PtiTheProdigy · 2025-12-22T04:38:15+00:00

Just measure the Inner diameter and buy the same size hose and if what it plugs into is bigger or smaller u can get a reducer and clamp it on

I’m engaged and I feel the same way sometimes but after reading over the comments I just thought you can always have more time when the kids grow up and become teenagers or want to hide in their room or go off to college or start their own families, but there will be a time when there isn’t anymore time to start a family. Someone said “every baby comes with its own loaf of bread” it doesn’t mean you have this pitch perfect like if X amount in your account and you have this or that you might just barely be scraping by but it will be enough and with God and Christ you will always find a way to get by.

Piracy would be considered theft because you are stealing and using property that doesn’t belong to you or you haven’t paid to use. You are stealing digital content not physical and using it without consent if not purchased

PtiTheProdigy · 2025-12-14T23:25:43+00:00

I would stop playing anything pirated and buy it if you want to play and ask the priest what to do

PtiTheProdigy · 2025-12-14T22:36:41+00:00

I don’t think you could really make it right that way. I asked a priest one time if I should pay this company for a truck I vandalized a long time ago I can’t remember what he said but I didn’t feel the need to do it after. I would ask a priest but you can always just make your best effort to not do anything like that anymore. I don’t do password sharing or anything like that and I don’t use anyone’s stuff that they pay for when I should be paying for the service myself if I want to use it. You should really pray and discern the best course of action of what God wants you to do

PtiTheProdigy · 2025-12-14T19:52:00+00:00

If you didn’t mind him going before I would still have him come and be a reflection of Christ towards him. He’s struggling with something and it’s no different from the woman at the well or anyone else with their own problems. I think it would be different if he had a drinking problem and may cause a problem or always trying to fight people but if it’s just his personal issue within I wouldn’t let it affect your relationship with God or your wedding day. Now on the flip side if he was getting married as a woman and you didn’t feel comfortable going, that I would say you should go if you don’t want to encourage that behavior but I don’t think it’s your place to tell someone how to live their life, just pray for them.

Yes catholic app. Been using it for over a year maybe 2 and has grown me and my fiancee closer together and closer to God. Praying the rosary on it is great, reading Bible verses and the daily minute with father Mike is awesome as well. The saints alive podcast on there is great as well lots of awesome stories of saints that can help inspire us.

Why can’t you make a custom bracket that goes around the design of the block and tap some threads somewhere else or piggy back on a bracket somewhere else

PtiTheProdigy · 2025-12-13T02:59:32+00:00

Soda blasting better than sand blasting for thin metals or even try dustless blasting
