  • Please tell us what he told you.

    Everything you say confirms what I know about every adult convert. Those who convert seek the truth and aren't afraid to go looking.
    He told me that when a Catholic receives communion they receive the actual body and blood of Christ. He told me a lot, but that 1 statement would change everything about my belief in Christ if it was true. I felt obligated to get to the bottom of it. It snowballed after that. 
    Religion clean and undefiled before God and the Father, is this: to visit the fatherless and widows in their tribulation: and to keep one's self unspotted from this world.
    ~James 1:27

  • I was baptized as an adult.  I started searching for the REAL Catholic Church a year later because what I saw in NewChurch didn't fit what I had studied in RCIA.  About a decade later I discovered Tradition and have been such for 11+ years.  

    I have one sister who left Tradition and returned to NewChurch for lifestyle reasons.  She and her family are worldlings and it created too much work to keep up appearances.

    All my other relatives are not Catholic at all.

    I cant contemplate how anyone goes from Tradition to "NewChurch". I think conviction is a gift from God. Even if it hurts us in this life.
