As for me, I spent my time putting the various arguments both pro and con Catholicism against the one key which I found in the scriptures -- the covenantal relationship of man to God.

Catholicism fit.

Protestantism did not.

Therefore, I converted.
It's unfortunate that you "converted" on the basis of an erroneous concept of covenant and not the totality of biblical teaching on the core doctrines, e.g., Sola Scriptura, Sola Fide, etc. Like Scott Hahn who "converted" to Romanism after he had been schooled in the doctrines of free sovereign grace, one can only conclude that you have never truly embraced the truth with a living faith, but sadly there was only a head knowledge.


Hebrews 6:4-8 (ASV) "For as touching those who were once enlightened and tasted of the heavenly gift, and were made partakers of the Holy Spirit, and tasted the good word of God, and the powers of the age to come, and [then] fell away, it is impossible to renew them again unto repentance; seeing they crucify to themselves the Son of God afresh, and put him to an open shame. For the land which hath drunk the rain that cometh oft upon it, and bringeth forth herbs meet for them for whose sake it is also tilled, receiveth blessing from God: but if it beareth thorns and thistles, it is rejected and nigh unto a curse; whose end is to be burned."

1 John 2:19 (ASV) "They went out from us, but they were not of us; for if they had been of us, they would have continued with us: but [they went out], that they might be made manifest that they all are not of us."



In His Grace,
