Catholicism is filled with witchcraft and evil!

Please show me in the scriptures where we are to worship Mary as the "Blessed Mother"?

Once you understand that the Catholic Mary worship is blasphemy, I will explain how you are not even worshiping Mary... you are actually worshiping the pagan goddess Isis.

The Roman Catholic church is in reality the ancient Babylonian mystery religion (Isis, Osiris, Horas) dressed up to look like Christianity.

If you read Revelation with an open mind and open heart, you will discover that Vatican City is the harlot of Revelation 17.

chrissie,

I try to be nice, no use. More protest and rejection. Great, don't have a reminder of Our Lord or anyone in Heaven. But I know you do in your Bible. Are you offended Protestant artists have painted images of Jesus? I bet not. I have a crucifix in almost every room in our home as reminder. Jesus desires we recall His Sacrifice. There's an image for you. Do you see now?

I gave you Scriptural reference to confession to a priest.
There are others, Paul speaks of confessing your sins to
a priest. It's not "each and every sin" but our serious sins, our mortal sins not minor sins,venial, that we must confess. You deny/ignore John 20:23. Most of the Hail Mary is in Scripture. Do you know God the Father's first words for Mary brought by Archangel Gabriel are the first words of the Hail Mary. "Hail full of Grace." The prayer starts "Hail Mary full of Grace."

Another misinterpretation. God meant insincere "repetitive
prayer"...most prayers said over again are prayers of meditation. You say the prayer because you know it but
think of God personally at the same time.

I don't see you speaking about your not becoming Orthodox
since you declare it to be the first Church after Peter died. You joined the group that came along 16 centuries later. Why? I am trying to help, the Bible is a Catholic. Go ask most any Protestant minister, they will tell you yes. Who compiled the Canon if the Church didn't?

_ _ _ _

How the Canon of the Bible (the official catalogue of inspired books) was officially declared.
All books that were considered for the Cannon, but not included were called Apocrypha, and thus declared not inspired.

362 A.D. Catholic Church's Council of Rome defines the Canon of Holy Scripture.
382 Pope Damasus issues a listing of the present OT and NT Canon of 73 books
383 Saint Jerome translates the Latin Vulgate from Greek & Hebrew
393 Council of Hippo (North Africa) approves the present Canon of 73 books
397 Council of Constantinople produces first bound Bible (the Vulgate: previously, all
were separate books)
397 Council of Carthage (North Africa) approves the same OT and NT canon
405 Pope Saint Innocent I approves the Canon again and closes it (with 73 books)

Although the hierarchy of the church is evil Jesus still gathers to his faithful. You must remember these lost sheep never had a Shepard but yet the faithful gather and seek Jesus every week and he is in them. It will be all who teach the false doctrine who answer to God.

Amen to that.

Satan knows who the true Church is, He attacks the priesthood
because He believes in the spiritual power of the priesthood.
priests are our greatest means to the grace needed to get to Heaven.
There are some fallen in the Hierarchy. Not all of the Hierarchy as you post speaking as fallen away Catholic. Of course you'll say that G.S.T. Taking the easy way, you decide
your own justification. The Remnant is Roman Catholic,
you are the lost sheep Godsontoo.

I have repeatedly stated that I have joined no church yet.
You keep saying I am protestant. Why do you ignore my words?

Keep your faith, i have no concern for your your own protestations about the validity of your church. The catholics are no different from the protestants in that regards.
As for orthodox, I have been looking into it, to see if they align truthfully with the Bible and the decision will be made when I am ready to make it. I d o not follow blindly. Much work must be done, much prayer and asking for guidance. So far the Spirit of God has not been steering me to either catholocism or protestantism.
and regardless of how you justify the sunday worship, the confession , the pennance - you didnt mention that actually, no biblical reference i guess - it still is a fallen church for murdering its own people.
you have yet to defend that.

You are wrong if a priest and ALL the hierarchy who are suppose to be Bible scholars continue to teach this false doctrine of catholisism knowingly the they will be judge first by God because judgement begins at the pulpit. Second if you are so delusional that you believe a priest has grace before another and will lead the CHURCH TO HEAVEN then you do not understand scripture and our Father sends you strong delusion to protect you.

And do not bother calling me a catholic bashed because I was a catholic. For my whole life until I started reading the bible and through the grace of God he took me out of that corrupt system of man to satnd firm against Satan . You my friend are being bamboozled by the catholic church that has so corrupted the truth of Gods word a bow my head in shame at the thought I practiced this for so long.

How wrong you are.....They are evil.

The OP is right. Catholicism is a perversion of christianity, the "Mass" is a Black Mass, and the "Mother of God" is a demon in drag.


It doesn't surprise me that so many come out in support of a worldly institution that is fundamentally demonic. Those who defend Catholicism don't know God as their father.


Come out of her, my people!

Revelation 18:4


The "harlot/whore that rides the beast, drunk with the blood of the saints and with the blood of the witnesses of Jesus", is Catholicism. Research the Inquisition and the Congregation for the Doctrination of the Faith. It "officially" started in the 12th century and is still going on today. The chief purpose was to ferret out anyone who chose Jesus and God (true Christians) above allegiance to the pope. Those who refused to choose the pope were tortured and killed. Raztinger was the head of it for over 20 years (appointed by JP2) before becoming pope.



"Joseph Ratzinger, now Pope Benedict XVI, was from 25 November 1981 Cardinal-Prefect of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, formerly known as the Inquisition. He was named to that post by Pope John Paul II."

COME OUT OF HER, MY PEOPLE!

You named one, belonging to a Protestant denomination in the "God" thread and then you said you are a Church of One. Fellowship and Bible discussion are your priority.

I am glad now you're saying you're looking. God is going to reveal to you the RCC you've decided to come against supporting the OP and his anti-Catholic thread. God personally is going show you the RCC is the true faith.
I am with God, I want you to become Catholic too.

Your one line I bolded, how many threads are you going to repeat it in? What are talking about, be specific. The Catholic Church murdered who and when? Names and dates. You haven't written one.

You didn't share history or dates on another Canon either.
Why, cause there isn't one. And fact, the Orthodox broke away from the RCC. St. Ignatius used the word Catholic in the year 107, is that early enough for you to believe?

You are being dishonest about Scriptural reference cause you have no comebacks. I gave you a half page of Scriptural reference to the Lord's Day, Sunday worship and a writing to explain it better than I can. Remember, reference to Jesus went to Church, He didn't stay home, He kept the Commandments. I gave you several verses on Confession. I'll look up Paul's words on the same.

You prove it by your words.

You don't know the faith, if you did, you wouldn't of left.
And Scripture, you like it now, cause you get to decide
what it means GST.

Foolish Protestantism. Can't put it together, the most
basic. The Church gave you the Bible, so....

Agree

There is no ministerial priesthood in Protestantism.

More verses about the priests' power to forgive sins in
Jesus' name and to anoint the sick and dying.

My mother could speak Latin, I can't. St. Jerome compiled the Bible, the first Bible was written in Latin, the common language of the day. The English translation of that first Bible, the Vulgate. From the Douay-Rheims Bible ~

Check the footnotes:

James 5:14-16
Is any man sick among you? Let him bring in the priests of the church, and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord. [15] And the prayer of faith shall save the sick man: and the Lord shall raise him up: and if he be in sins, they shall be forgiven him.

[14] "Let him bring in"... See here a plain warrant of scripture for the sacrament of extreme unction, that any controversy against its institution would be against the express words of the sacred text in the plainest terms.

[16] Confess therefore your sins one to another: and pray one for another, that you may be saved. For the continual prayer of a just man availeth much.

[16] "Confess therefore your sins one to another"... That is, to the priests of the church, whom (ver. 14) he had ordered to be called for, and brought in to the sick; moreover, to confess to persons who had no power to forgive sins, would be useless. Hence the precept here means, that we must confess to men whom God hath appointed, and who, by their ordination and jurisdiction, have received the power of remitting sins in his name.

her subjects owned and read Bibles, that they might
question some of the Church's actions and teachings.

History's Most Indestructable Book

Many dictators have attempted to wipe
the Bible from existence. Yet it has
withstood all these attacks, remaining
the most popular book in the world.
More copies of the Bible are sold every year
than any other book, despite its image as
being "out of date."


Christendom Becomes - An Enemy of the bible

Christendom - as a political power

Unfortunately, this ultimately led to
persecution again as the church quickly
became a powerful political force, used to
control public opinion and political ambitions.

The Bible continued to be attacked, now from
within the church. Bibles in common languages
such as Greek were outlawed. The Latin Vulgate
Bible was produced and carefully controlled,
readable only by specially trained representatives
of the church. Laws were issued making it illegal
for any Christian to possess a Bible. Penalties
included burning at the stake. During the Dark Ages
even priests were unable to read the Scriptures
for themselves. As a result, they were unable to
compare the false doctrines sweeping through the
Roman church against the doctrines of the
Word of God. In Italy, it was still illegal to
own a Bible until 1870!


I want you to become Catholic too.

maybe, when the vatican rids herself of wealth, gold, idols, and places every penny from tithing into humanitarian issues, when they step forward and confess her sins to all the world and ask that we help her overcome her greed and corruption and maybe then I will consider. You may want me, but I am guided from that church by the spirit of God within me telling me to not go there, but to find Him where He is.
You forget that Jesus is alive, and thus no one can sit on His throne but Him. and He sits on it now, and none of you can see Him around your human pope.

Start your boot licking now and just like you tell people that are not a part of your messed up religions get ready to burn

why would he crush me for something i took no part in, regret that it was done, and pray about to Him? He may crush out religions, but not the individuals that do not support those churches.
if i go to hell if there is one, it will be for sins i have committed, not for things churches have done.

not you.. the OP

I Came out of the RCC too, and now follow Jesus Christ alone. The RCC is a "Leaky Bucket" cult, that is a haven for demonic teachings. It is simply a continuation of ancient Babylonian Mother-Goddess religion.

Isis= Mary

Osirus= Pope

Horus= Baby Jesus

Also, google "Cybele" she was the Roman Empire's version of Mary, basically a renamed Isis. Cybele was attended by celebant male priests (Sounds familiar?)

When Constantine declared "Christianity" as the state religion of Rome in 3rd century, he rolled all the pagan holidays and practices into the true Christian faith and thus the heresy of the RCC was born.

There were true followers of Christ however that saw the error and abomination and would not join the RCC and they have been persecuted and killed for centuries.

the catholic churfch DID bun people for Bible ownership, withheld forgiveness of sins until Bible were purged from home.

"Maybe" is a crock. I searched a phrase from above and
a page full of anti-Catholic websites came up. It would
of saved space if you had posted a link to Jack Chick.

Ever time I have given you Scriptural proof for
Church teaching, you have ignored it. The latest from
James, no response. The general no content comment. The
Church is evil, there's gold in the Vatican. And you
never were specific about your accusation of murder.

No one is sitting on the throne with Christ but the other two person's of the Blessed Trinity. Everything you know of Christ came from the Church except the man-made heresies of Protestantism. Trinity isn't written Scripture but you accept the RCC word for the three divine persons. That is just one example, what hypocrites anti-Catholics. Mock the Pope, God has always chosen leaders so there would be an authority, Protestants are their own authority, disagreeing
among themselves then splintering to this day.

Oh my gosh, here it is again. The same one name "Constantine" to look legitimate, can't put down any others names, people know they're Catholic. This is the complete Protestant history for the early Church, 33 A.D. until Martin Luther and the others revolted in 1517. One lone paragraph and they think people are going to take it for Truth!

Historically, the Bible was canonized in the 4th century.
What's this 3rd century? By your history, you state the Bible is a Catholic book.

no i don't accept the holy trinity. There is God and His SON Jesus. why do you presume to tell me what i accept or dont accept.
and again I am not a protestant.
and the catholic church admitted that Bibles were a banned book
and the throne I am referring to is the one the pope sits upon - as leader of the true church, that is Jesus' throne.

and as far as some of my information coming from what you term as anti-catholic websites, i cannot help it if it appears so to you. a church responsible for over 70 million murders cannot be truthfully shown in a favorable light. but i will try to find some more pro- catholic murder references for you.......


"And so was inflicted on the south of France one of the ferocious massacres in history. Bands of northern brigands pillaged and plundered. In the Cathedral of Saint-Nazaire, twelve thousand 'heretics' were killed ... Those who tried to flee were cut down and butchered. Thousands more were burned at the stake. At Toulouse, Bishop Foulque put to death ten thousand people accused of heresy. At Beziers the entire population of more than twenty thousand was slaughtered. At Citeau, when asked how to distinguish Catholics from Catherists, the abbe replied with his famed cynicism: 'Kill them all; God will know his own'." [Thompkins, P. 58]


"In the Inquisition, pain inflicted on sexual organs was very prevalent, another clear sign of the sexual obsession brought on by the perversions of celibacy"

As you will discover when you read "The Malleus Maleficarium", women were specially targeted for persecution as potential, or suspected, witches. If a woman was merely thrown off a high place, as we see here, she could count herself fortunate to die a quick and relatively painless death. As we shall demonstrate, a demonic spirit of sexual obsession and deviant lust blew through this entire Inquisition after the introduction of "The Malleus Maleficarium"; Pope Innocent III issued the Papal Bull on December 5, 1484, that established this document as the standard by which the Inquisition was to be conducted


Stark, Helen (?–1543)
Protestant martyr. One of the earliest Scottish Protestant martyrs, Helen Stark, or Stirke, was executed by drowning in Perth. She was among a number of heretics condemned there at the visitation of Cardinal David Beaton, Archbishop of St Andrews, in January 1543.

She was charged with having refused to call upon the Virgin Mary in childbirth, and with having claimed that the Virgin had no special qualities which made her superior to other women. Helen’s husband, James Ranoldsone, or Rannelt, was condemned with her. They seem to have been a devoted couple, for Helen appealed, unsuccessfully, to be allowed to share her husband’s bonds and his death by hanging. The townspeople sought to save the accused, but to no avail, since the local priests refused to intercede for any found guilty of such crimes. Helen left several children, including her baby, to the care of the townspeople.

and if you really want to know more, google holy crusades massacre pictures, and look at the drawings and paintings that were made at the time to record the various forms of punishment. not enough to kiil and man or woman, but it had to inflict the most amount of pain and terror. Burning sticks shoved under toenails, feet tethered inches from burning fires, eyes gouged out, man suspended above sharp instruments that were slowly inserted .... never mind too gross to imagine, and they did the same with women hanging above sharp poles....just gruesome.
there were no true trials, people accused were killed. just look at the pictures if you have the stomach, and tell me a Godly church did these things.

no i don't accept the holy trinity. There is God and His SON Jesus. why do you presume to tell me what i accept or dont accept.
and again I am not a protestant.
and the catholic church admitted that Bibles were a banned book
and the throne I am referring to is the one the pope sits upon - as leader of the true church, that is Jesus' throne.

and as far as some of my information coming from what you term as anti-catholic websites, i cannot help it if it appears so to you. a church responsible for over 70 million murders cannot be truthfully shown in a favorable light. but i will try to find some more pro- catholic murder references for you.......


"And so was inflicted on the south of France one of the ferocious massacres in history. Bands of northern brigands pillaged and plundered. In the Cathedral of Saint-Nazaire, twelve thousand 'heretics' were killed ... Those who tried to flee were cut down and butchered. Thousands more were burned at the stake. At Toulouse, Bishop Foulque put to death ten thousand people accused of heresy. At Beziers the entire population of more than twenty thousand was slaughtered. At Citeau, when asked how to distinguish Catholics from Catherists, the abbe replied with his famed cynicism: 'Kill them all; God will know his own'." [Thompkins, P. 58]


"In the Inquisition, pain inflicted on sexual organs was very prevalent, another clear sign of the sexual obsession brought on by the perversions of celibacy"

As you will discover when you read "The Malleus Maleficarium", women were specially targeted for persecution as potential, or suspected, witches. If a woman was merely thrown off a high place, as we see here, she could count herself fortunate to die a quick and relatively painless death. As we shall demonstrate, a demonic spirit of sexual obsession and deviant lust blew through this entire Inquisition after the introduction of "The Malleus Maleficarium"; Pope Innocent III issued the Papal Bull on December 5, 1484, that established this document as the standard by which the Inquisition was to be conducted


Stark, Helen (?–1543)
Protestant martyr. One of the earliest Scottish Protestant martyrs, Helen Stark, or Stirke, was executed by drowning in Perth. She was among a number of heretics condemned there at the visitation of Cardinal David Beaton, Archbishop of St Andrews, in January 1543.

She was charged with having refused to call upon the Virgin Mary in childbirth, and with having claimed that the Virgin had no special qualities which made her superior to other women. Helen’s husband, James Ranoldsone, or Rannelt, was condemned with her. They seem to have been a devoted couple, for Helen appealed, unsuccessfully, to be allowed to share her husband’s bonds and his death by hanging. The townspeople sought to save the accused, but to no avail, since the local priests refused to intercede for any found guilty of such crimes. Helen left several children, including her baby, to the care of the townspeople.

Sorry, you say you aren't Protestant but continue
to post the same Protestant objections that have been answered a 100 times on the forum. And you paste from
Protestant websites.

Once again, you type "70 million murders", another
grand and but vague number. Who, what, where, when?

And another, Chick sounding cut and paste, can't believe any of it. There was a Protestant Inquisition so you are cancelled. For your one Protestant martyr, compared there are 10,000 Catholic martyrs. The Crusades
saved the most sacred places on earth, where Our Lord
lived and died...from the evil Islam intent to destroy them.

I am getting attached to you, you are dear. I don't like
reading you deny the Trinity. Makes you a non-Christian.
How can you reject God the Holy Spirit? You best join
the 7th Day Adventists, the Messianics disbelieve too but
preach Protestantism which is crazy.

Please,come along now, don't wait. God's grace in it's fullest can only be found in Catholicism.


blessings to you chrissie,

blessings to you chrissie,



As for the 70 million deaths, I am not going into anymore detail, only because it is too easy for you or anyone else interested to google information from various sources. Anything I put here is going to be snubbed by you as being a less than credible source anyway.

ANd if I quote protestant arguements, it is because they are valid, not because they are protestant. Catholics say the sky is blue, does repeating that make me a catholic?
And i do not "believe" in the trinity, because there is God and Jesus. The holy ghost is not God or Jesus, and nothing in the Bible that I have found to date has shown that the Holy Ghost is a being like God or Jesus. catholics say there is a trinity of God, Jesus, and Holy Spirit that are three, yet one being.
I am sorry for not believing this, But I do not believe that Jesus and God are one being, and I do not believe the holy spirit is a being. It is portrayed as Godly intuition, a feeling of godlyniess, as in the Holy spirit filled her, or the holy spirit moved me, but come on - the holy spirit did not create the universe. That would be like saying there are two of you: the one that is you, and the impact you have on people to inspire them or affect them. It doesnt make sense. Why can't there be one God and one Jesus.
Jesus's sacrifice can only be a sacrifice because He was human, and NOT God. It is no sacrifice at all for a God to pretend to die.

Thanks for the bump! You must be wrong though, as I see that quite a few agree with the title of the post, or with the content, or else THEY WOULDN"T BE CLICKING ON IT!!

Sorry Mark,

You gotta have an open heart to change. You think
agreement, not really, most of Christianity is Roman
Catholic. Most all Christians believe in God's gift
of Himself in the Holy Eucharist.

The "continual sacrifice" in Daniel is the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass.

The Remnant is Roman Catholic, watch and see...you'll be one
of them, I hope and pray.

Most of Christianity is lost! If they will not come out of the churches and learn the true Gospel of Jesus Christ they will not be saved. Friendship with the world is enmity with God! Look it up. The fear of God is the beginning of wisdom, look it up! Be ye perfect even as your father in heaven is perfect! Look it up! Keep the Sabbath holy, look it up! If you are attending a church that is teaching these fundamental truths, please let me know, because I have never heard of one. You do not find Jesus in a church! Come away from them, they are all going to filled with counterfeit miracles and the strange fire!

actually it is orthodox as far as I can tell. catholics did to the orthodox what protestants did to catholicism.

Mark Brender on a roll again.

Everything that is evil is satanic. you are misinformed about many things.

Look up the testimony of Svali, she witnessed child sacrifice in the catacombs beneath the Vatican.
