More questions.. cuz i forgot to blog for the past few days..

9. Why do you obey the Pope?

Catholics believe that Jesus cmmissioned St. Peter as the first leader of the Church. Matthew's Gospel has the most direct biblical indication of the papacy: "And I tell you, you are Peter (meaning literally "Rock"), and on this rock I will build my church... I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven: (Mt 16:18-19). Based on this statement of Jesus himself, Peter is clearly portrayed in the New Testament as the leader of the disciples. A pope can make infallible, binding pronouncements under certain conditions. Infallibility doesn't mean that absolutely everything a pope says is free from error. All Christians believe that God protected Holy Scripture from error by means of inspiration, even tough sinful, fallible men wrote it. We Catholics also believe that God the Holy Spirit protects His Church and its head from error (Jn 14:16) by means of infallibility, even though sinful, imperfect men are involved in it.

So that is the question answered for the moment..

Not much has been going on in my life lately.. been really busy.. good news is that things are getting better between Jusytn and I. I'm finding the happiness that we shared just two weeks ago with him again.. that's always a good thing. I just hope that this uphill climb continues... i really hate feeling like our relationship is a mess.. cuz in reality.. it isn't.. i love him so much.. and i'm so glad that we are working things out.

The thoughts of what happened still hurt.. but i'm trying to move on.. trying..
