The irony of Christianity is that it’s more difficult to receive the gift of eternal life than it is to earn it.
This is the heart of the Gospel—and the fight of the Reformation.

UPDATE:
Bank just emailed. It returned 2/3 of the payments back to ADP, so those are safe.
They are still working on the third.
Thank you for your prayers.
Prayer Request
Mary can't hear me, nor does she answer prayers, so please pray, to the Father, on my behalf regarding the below:
I accidentally typed the wrong account number in the ADP payroll site when setting up a new account, and three of my wife's paychecks were sent into the void.
ADP says it can only recall the funds within 5 day, and my bank is "trying to recover the funds" but gave me little hope I will see the money.
It's enough money to hurt, but not kill us.
Prayers appreciated. Thank you!

The lived practice of many Roman Catholics isn't faith in Christ — it's talismanic religion.
Ashes on the forehead, rosary beads, saint medals. . .
The object itself is the power. The act is the protection.

Let's talk about "Ash Wednesday".
“Be careful not to practice your righteousness in front of others to be seen by them. If you do, you will have no reward from your Father in heaven." — Jesus

Quiz:
What did Jesus say to these who asked Him, “What is the work of God so that we may do it?”
Protestants cannot maintain their continuity.
You’re the same guy who just posted:
“And answering them, he said: Who is my mother and my brethren? And looking round about on them who sat about him, he saith: Behold my mother and my brethren. For whosoever shall do the will of God, he is my brother, and my sister, and mother.” (Mk 3:33-35)

The Text That no Roman Catholic Wants You to Read
"As Jesus was saying these things, a woman in the crowd called out, “Blessed is the mother who gave you birth and nursed you.”
He replied, “Blessed rather are those who hear the word of God and obey it.”
Jesus had at least three choices here.
1. He could agree, and then add that those who hear the word of God and obey it are blessed as well.
2. He could agree, and then instruct us to pray to her, bow before statues of her, and carry beads so we could repeat prayers to her.
However, He did none of that. With His use of the word, "rather" He corrected/rebuked the woman.
At the one moment most ripe for Him to tell us to honor Mary with worship or special devotion—He did the opposite.
