Can Catholics Kill Protestants According To Their Law?
I know what I will say in this and many other articles will upset and anger many people. But, I have a deep sadness and actual fear for lost souls, and I must speak out. I believe God and what He clearly states in His Most Holy Word. I have been teaching the Bible since the early 1970's and I truly believe our slogan: "The Bible Has The Answer." My friend, if you are a Catholic, PLEASE read the Bible and BELIEVE what it states! The pope does NOT have the answer to eternal life. The pope CANNOT save your soul. ONLY Jesus Christ can save your soul and keep you from the depths of Hell. PLEASE BELIEVE GOD!!!
The Catholics besieged Europe in ages past, terrorizing and killing millions. It's a matter of historical record if anyone chooses to find the truth. According to their own law, anyone who would not submit to this Roman monster (Catholicism) is a "heretic." Praise the Lord!!! I qualify! According to their canon law, a heretic can be purged in several ways:
#1 Excommunication. This sentence is pronounced not only on infamous heretics, and those suspected of heresy (opposing views), but, also on anyone who harbors, defends or assists them,or even who speaks to them, trades with them or has fellowship of any kind with them.
This means that anyone who refused to go along with the pope, or was even suspected of it, or even spoke to them was excommunicated. Sounds like Hitler!
#2 Prohibition from all offices, from all public duties and private rights.
No jobs, no rights, no family support.
#3 Confiscation of all their goods.
No wonder the Vatican is the richest organization in the world.
#4 Death sometimes by the sword, but more often by fire.
Catholics can supposedly kill anyone who opposes them according to their laws. I am a Protestant, so I am guilty of heresy according to them. And worse yet in their eyes, I left the Catholic religion, so I should know better. Well, I am a born again Christian (John 1:12-13; 3:3), by the power of my precious Saviour and Lord, Jesus Christ and I am proud that God gave me wisdom to leave that terrible cult.
But, all this happened a long time ago, you say. Right! It did. But, you say, the Catholics are different today. Don’t you believe that for one minute. They CAN’T be different, for the Catholic laws are supposedly “infallible.” What does infallible mean? It means incapable of any error; never wrong. So, the Catholics are not different today because if they admitted any wrong whatsoever, their laws would not be infallible. It is the humble opinion of this servant of Jesus, that only the Bible is infallible - - - and I am NOT speaking of the horrific new versions of the Bible. I am speaking of God’s Holy Word in an unadulterated, uncorrupted version, of which the King James Version comes the closest. Man’s word is NOT God’s Word. And Catholic laws are man’s words! (Mat.15:9).
But, you say, Catholics and Protestants are getting together. Yes, they are. But, my friend, a TRUE child of God who has the Holy Spirit abiding (Rom.8:9-10), cannot and will not be party of something like this. We are ordered to come out, and be ye separate (2 Cor. 6:17). We are to have NO part in idolatry, yes - - - (worship and prayer to Mary and saints), and we are to believe God when He tells us we are saved by faith alone (Eph.2:8-9) and NOT faith PLUS something else (sacraments, rites). Jesus paid the FULL penalty of our sin. We need NOTHING but Jesus for salvation. My friend, anyone who joins hands with Catholics are joining hands with the devil himself.
Rome tries to convince people that a piece of bread supernaturally turns into the flesh of Jesus, and the cup of wine turns into His precious Blood. Anyone with any common sense at all knows this is not true. How utterly ridiculous!!! If that were true, that would make the participants guilty of cannibalism.
They worship a pagan goddess called the the Queen of Heaven (Jer.7:18; 44:17-19,25), and call her Mary. I am certain that wonderful woman shudders at this. She was a sinner like everyone else (Rom.3:13,23), or else the Bible lies! The Bible does NOT lie, because God does NOT lie (Tit.1:2).
Catholics have so many ways that they go against the Bible. They try to seduce people to come into their cult. BEWARE!!!
Let’s consider the Word of God, and what the Catholics think about it. To Catholics, interpreting the Word of God is entrusted ENTIRELY to the pope. NO one else is supposed to have enough sense to do that I guess. Rome basically tells Catholics they can read the Bible, but they won’t know the correct meaning without the pope’s interpretation. The pope was supposedly was assigned to explain Scripture. I would like to know WHO assigned him to do that. I’m sure his answer would be “God,” but I know it was NOT God! I will let the Holy Spirit interpret for me. He has done a great job so far.
It absolutely disgusts me to think that millions of people believe that the pope is the only person who has authority over Scripture. That is absolutely FALSE!
Acts 17:10-11 And the brethren immediately sent away Paul and Silas by night unto Berea: who coming thither went into the synagogue of the Jews. [11] These were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched the scriptures daily, whether those things were so. (KJV) See the "nobility" accredited to their state of mind. The people heard the apostle, but searched the Scriptures daily to see if the things were true. There was no pope at this time!
Below is why believers can read the Bible and discern the Truth for themselves.
#1 There is absolutely NO secret code available only to the pope or seminaries. The Bible is clear, and plain. A plain, simple mind can understand and be changed by the teaching of the Bible.
Psalm 19:7 The law of the Lord is perfect, converting the soul: the testimony of the Lord is sure, making wise the simple. (KJV)
Matthew 5:6 Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled. (KJV)
2 Cor. 1:22 Who hath also sealed us, and given the earnest of the Spirit in our hearts. (KJV) God identifies us as His own by placing the Holy Spirit in our hearts as partial payment of everything He will give us in eternity. It is The Holy Spirit who helps us understand the Bible, NOT the pope!
1 Cor. 2:10-14 But God hath revealed them unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God. [11] For what man knoweth the things of a man, save the spirit of man which is in him? even so the things of God knoweth no man, but the Spirit of God. [12] Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God. [13] Which things also we speak, not in the words which man's wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual. [14] But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned. (KJV) God reveals His Word to us by the Holy Spirit (Rom.8:9). God has given us His Spirit so we can know the wonderful things God has freely given us.
John 16:13 Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come. (KJV) The Truth into which the Holy Spirit guides us is the Truth about Christ. The Holy Spirit also helps us through patience, to discern right from wrong.
1 John 2:20 But ye have an unction from the Holy One, and ye know all things. (KJV) When we believe God and accept Jesus, we are given the Holy Spirit, and He helps us know the Truth.
1 John 2:27 But the anointing which ye have received of him abideth in you, and ye need not that any man teach you: but as the same anointing teacheth you of all things, and is truth, and is no lie, and even as it hath taught you, ye shall abide in him. (KJV) When you receive the Holy Spirit, He lives within you, so you do NOT need anyone to teach you what is true. For the Spirit teaches you all things, and what he teaches is always true, never a lie.
#2 ALL believers are part of a priesthood, ALL are alike in standing or rank, and ALL are equal before God. NO person, pope or otherwise, should think that they alone can go before God in prayer, or that they alone are capable of understanding the Bible, or are better than another whereas to insist on bowing to them (worship actually). Believers are accountable ONLY to Christ Jesus, NO one else!
Acts 10:34 Then Peter opened his mouth, and said, Of a truth I perceive that God is no respecter of persons: (KJV)
Romans 2:11 For there is no respect of persons with God. (KJV) God does not show favoritism.
Col. 3:25 But he that doeth wrong shall receive for the wrong which he hath done: and there is no respect of persons. (KJV) Anyone who does wrong, will be paid back for the wrong they have done. God has NO favorites who can get away with evil.
1 Peter 1:17 And if ye call on the Father, who without respect of persons judgeth according to every man's work, pass the time of your sojourning here in fear: (KJV) The heavenly Father to whom you pray has no favorites when He judges. He will judge or reward you according to what you do, say or think. So we ALL must live in reverent fear of Him during your time as foreigners here on earth.
Matthew 23:9 And call no man your father upon the earth: for one is your Father, which is in heaven. (KJV) We must NOT call anyone on Earth “Father” in a spiritual or religious sense, because you have only one Father in Heaven.
Psalm 111:9 He sent redemption unto his people: he hath commanded his covenant for ever: holy and reverend is his name. (KJV) In my humble opinion, it is wrong to call any person “reverend” for that Name belongs only to God. To me, to call someone reverend or “most reverend” is blasphemy.
1 Peter 2:9 But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light: (KJV) We are a kingdom of priests, God's holy nation, His very own possession. ALL believers can come before God’s Throne of grace in prayer. ALL believers have the same right to access God. The Bible says that believers (the church, body of Christ) are a chosen people. The Jews too are God’s chosen people (Ex.19:6; Deut.7:6-7; 14:2,21; 26:18; Dan.11:15). Many in today’s world think that the Jews have been replaced in God’s eyes by Christians as His chosen. They are WRONG! God has NOT rejected Israel nor shall He ever abandon them. Replacement Theology is NOT true! See: Replacement Theology.
Rev. 5:10 And hast made us unto our God kings and priests: and we shall reign on the earth. (KJV) Believers are God's kings and God’s priests. And they will reign on the Earth.
Believers as Spirit-filled priests, are perfectly capable to understand His Holy Word. We do NOT need the pope or any Catholic literature to help us understand. NO person has the right to claim sole authority of the Bible, unless that Man is Jesus! Catholics may say that the pope is the head representative of Christ on Earth, but my friends, that does NOT make it true. My prayer for you is that you deny and condemn this Catholic teaching and read your own Bible with the Holy Spirit’s help.
Catholic Mass is Blasphemy
Jesus died on the cross ONCE. Jesus died ONCE for the sins of the world, NOT many times as portrayed in the Catholic mass. They call Jesus “the victim” and the priest supposedly has the power to kill Jesus over and over again on the Catholic altars. Why would anyone want to kill Jesus??? They supposedly call Jesus from Heaven and transform Him into a piece of bread and wine so the people can “eat His literal flesh” and “drink His literal blood. This is their mass! How repulsive and offensive!!! Their mass is NOT a remembrance of His Perfect Sacrifice, it is supposed to represent His actual sacrifice on the cross. Jesus is supposedly brought back to life to die - - - and the piece of bread and wine is supposedly His actual body. Ridiculous blasphemy? Damnable heresy! Cannibalism?
Rome supposedly backs up this horrific heresy with John chapter 6.
John 6:48-51 I am that bread of life. [49] Your fathers did eat manna in the wilderness, and are dead. [50] This is the bread which cometh down from heaven, that a man may eat thereof, and not die. [51] I am the living bread which came down from heaven: if any man eat of this bread, he shall live for ever: and the bread that I will give is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world. (KJV)
What did Jesus mean by “eat me?”
John 6:28-29 Then said they unto him, What shall we do, that we might work the works of God? [29] Jesus answered and said unto them, This is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he hath sent. (KJV) . . . Here Jesus states that the “work” God requires of us is to believe! Just what does that mean? To BELIEVE is to accept, trust, take to our innermost parts, to absorb (which is what eating really is); to permit something from the outside to come to your inside . . . like the Word of God. God’s Holy Word and Jesus is our spiritual “bread”.
John 6:58 This is that bread which came down from heaven: not as your fathers did eat manna, and are dead: he that eateth of this bread shall live for ever. (KJV) . . . Jesus is the spiritual Bread which came down from Heaven and died on the cross for us ONCE!!! When we “eat” this Spiritual Bread, we shall live for ever! Eating Jesus is accepting Him, trusting Him, believing on Him!
John 6:47 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me hath everlasting life. (KJV)
What about His Blood? John 6:56 He that eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, dwelleth in me, and I in him. (KJV). . . Jesus was not talking about His literal Blood, as Rome does. He is saying that His life has to become our own, but Rome does not accept this concept. Paul later used the Body and Blood symbolism in talking about communion (1 Cor. 11:23-26). The bread and wine (grape juice) REPRESENTS the Body and Blood of Jesus. It does NOT become His literal Flesh and Blood as portrayed in Catholic masses. As our food becomes incorporated within us, so too, Christ and those who eat His Flesh and drink His Blood SPIRITUALLY, become one with Jesus.
Leviticus 17:11 For the life of the flesh is in the blood: and I have given it to you upon the altar to make an atonement for your souls: for it is the blood that maketh an atonement for the soul. (KJV)
Hebrews 9:22 And almost all things are by the law purged with blood; and without shedding of blood is no remission. (KJV) “Almost all things," meaning all things under the old dispensation. There is no greater symbol of life than blood; blood keeps us alive. Jesus shed His Blood (died), for our sins so that we wouldn’t have to experience spiritual death, eternal separation from God. Jesus is the Source of Life, NOT death. He gave His own life to pay our penalty for us so that we might live. After shedding His Blood for us, Christ rose from the grave and proclaimed victory over sin and death. Without the shedding of blood, there is no forgiveness of sins.
John 6:61-64 When Jesus knew in himself that his disciples murmured at it, he said unto them, Doth this offend you? [62] What and if ye shall see the Son of man ascend up where he was before? [63] It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life. [64] But there are some of you that believe not. For Jesus knew from the beginning who they were that believed not, and who should betray him. (KJV) . . . Jesus offended many, then and now, at what He said about eating His Flesh and drinking His Blood. Some modern churches will NOT preach the Blood of Christ, or sing hymns with Blood in them, etc. How sad! It is that precious and holy Blood that save us. Much of Jesus' talk was about "flesh"; but mere flesh could profit nothing and certainly could NOT reveal eternal life which only the Holy Spirit alone can communicate to the soul. The sum and substance of the discourse is "spirit," NOT mere flesh, and "life" in the highest sense, NOT the lowest; and Jesus’ Words are to be interpreted entirely that way. But it mattered little to some (then and now), in what sense Jesus spoke, for “you believe not," He said.
Catholics leave out verses 63 & 64 when claiming that John 6 is about the ‘eucharist.’ My friend, that word “eucharist” is NOT even in the Bible! Neither is there any idea or theory or mention of the eucharist anywhere in God’s Holy Word; but there absolutely is in pagan religion!
What I have written is backed up by the Bible, NOT Rome’s catechism! PLEASE check it out for yourself. Be like the “noble Bereans” (Acts 17:10-11), for it is a matter of life or death to you!
Catholics PERVERT the Gospel of Christ
Galatians 1:6-9 I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel: [7] Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ. [8] But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed. [9] As we said before, so say I now again, If any man preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed. (KJV) . . . Catholics preach “another gospel” which is NOT the Gospel of Christ, but a slanderous, abusive version, an absolute perversion of the Gospel of Christ that the Bible teaches. Ask the Holy Spirit to SHOW you the Truth! The King James Version is the closest possible translation to the KJV 1611 that there is. Some of the newer versions: NIV, NLT, TEV, GW, Dar, Msg, CEV, NWT, to name just a few, distort and even omit specific verses.
The basis for any discussion, there MUST be TRUTH! What is Truth? Is it the Catholic canon? The Catholic catechism? NO way my friend! It is the Holy and perfect Word of Almighty God, the Bible!
John 17:17 Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth. (KJV) GOD’S WORD IS TRUTH, NOT Catholic heresies. John 10:35 - - - the scripture cannot be broken.
Psalm 138:2 I will worship toward thy holy temple, and praise thy name for thy lovingkindness and for thy truth: for thou hast magnified thy word above all thy name. (KJV) . . . Everyone has heard of God and His Name! This verse states that God has magnified His Word above His Name . . . my friend, you had better honor it! Anyone who does not consider God’s Word worthy of being praised and honored, or believed, or changes it around to suit their cultic practices and beliefs do so at their own risk.
Jeremiah 23:29 Is not my word like as a fire? saith the Lord; and like a hammer that breaketh the rock in pieces? (KJV) . . . The Catholic mass is blasphemy! Their so-called unbloody sacrifice of our precious Saviour and Lord is sacrilegious, profane, wicked and disrespectful to say the very least! NO man has right or the power to “call Jesus out of Heaven” and turn Him into a piece of bread and some wine. Jesus is supposedly “transubstantiated” (changed) into bread and wine. Ridiculous! Utterly ridiculous!
How can His whole body (intestines, bones, organs, eyeballs, hair, etc.), and His soul, be changed into a piece of bread so they can sacrifice Him on their altars? And then . . . EAT HIM as a cannibal would? And they call our God (Jesus Christ) “the victim”??? Blasphemy in the worst way!
Hebrews 10:3-4 But in those sacrifices there is a remembrance again made of sins every year. [4] For it is not possible that the blood of bulls and of goats should take away sins. (KJV) . . . When Catholics supposedly sacrifice Jesus over and over again (vs.3), they are making a remembrance of sins. When people gathered for the offering of sacrifices on the Day of Atonement in days of old, they were reminded of their sins, and they without doubt felt guilty all over again. It is impossible for the blood of bulls or goats to take away sin. Only the ONCE FOR ALL death of Christ . . . His precious Blood (1 Peter 1:18-19) can give us what we need . . . forgiveness . . . the permanent, powerful, sin-destroying forgiveness. When we confess a sin to him, we need NEVER think of it again. Christ has forgiven us, and the sin no longer exists in His Eyes. 1 John 1:9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. (KJV) . . . And the Bible clearly states: "He remembers it no more." Hebrews 8:12 For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness, and their sins and their iniquities will I remember no more. (KJV) Hebrews 10:17 And their sins and iniquities will I remember no more. (KJV) . . . Heb.8:12 is quoted from Jer. 31:31-34, which compares the new covenant with the old. The old covenant was the covenant of law between God and Israel. The new and better way is the covenant of grace . . . Christ’s offer to forgive our sins and bring us to God through His sacrificial death. This covenant goes beyond Israel to include all Gentile nations. Its application is new because it is written on our hearts and in our minds. It offers a new way to forgiveness, not through animal sacrifice but through faith. Thank You, Jesus!
Hebrews 9:25-28 Nor yet that he should offer himself often, as the high priest entereth into the holy place every year with blood of others; [26] For then must he often have suffered since the foundation of the world: but now once in the end of the world hath he appeared to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself. [27] And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment: [28] So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation. (KJV)
Verse 25: Jesus did NOT offer Himself often, but ONCE FOR ALL! ONLY ONCE!!!
Verse 26: Jesus offered Himself ONCE as the Sacrifice for the world!
Verse 27: Jesus dies ONCE, as it is with ALL men (and Mary).
Verse 28: Jesus was ONCE offered to bear the sins of many! ONCE . . . NOT over and over again as in the Catholic mass.
Hebrews 10:10-14 By the which will we are sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all. [11] And every priest standeth daily ministering and offering oftentimes the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins: [12] But this man, after he had offered one sacrifice for sins for ever, sat down on the right hand of God; [13] From henceforth expecting till his enemies be made his footstool. [14] For by one offering he hath perfected for ever them that are sanctified. (KJV)
Verse 10: Jesus did what God wanted Him to do, purifying us from sin by the Sacrifice that He made of His own Body ONCE AND FOR ALL!
Verse 11: Under the old covenant, the priest stands before the altar day after day, offering sacrifices that can NEVER take away sins. The Catholics crucify Jesus over and over again in their mass - - - which NEVER takes away our sins.
Verse 12: Jesus offered ONE Sacrifice for sins, that ONE Offering is effective forever, and then He SAT DOWN at the right Hand of God.
Verse 13: Jesus now waits until His enemies (ALL cults, unbelievers and heretics) are humbled as a footstool under His Feet.
Verse 14: For by ONE Offering, Jesus perfected forever all those whom He sets apart.
Hebrews 10:15-18 Whereof the Holy Ghost also is a witness to us: for after that he had said before, [16] This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days, saith the Lord, I will put my laws into their hearts, and in their minds will I write them; [17] And their sins and iniquities will I remember no more. [18] Now where remission of these is, there is no more offering for sin. (KJV)
Verse 15: The Holy Spirit testifies that this is so.
Verse 16: Jesus makes a new covenant with His people; He puts His laws in our hearts and minds.
Verse 17: Jesus says, "I will not remember their sins and evil deeds any more."
Verse 18: When we are forgiven, another offering to take away sins is no longer needed.
Hebrews 10:19-22 Having therefore, brethren, boldness to enter into the holiest by the blood of Jesus, [20] By a new and living way, which he hath consecrated for us, through the veil, that is to say, his flesh; [21] And having an high priest over the house of God; [22] Let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience, and our bodies washed with pure water. (KJV)
Verse 19: We can boldly enter Heaven's Most Holy Place because of the Blood of Jesus.
Verse 20: Jesus opened a new life-giving way for us to go through the sacred curtain to access the Father, (Rom.5:1-2), by means of His ONCE FOR ALL death for us.
Verse 21: Jesus is our Great High Priest who rules over God's people,
Verse 22: Jesus made a way for us to go right into the Presence of God, with true hearts fully trusting Him. Our evil consciences have been sprinkled with Christ's Blood to make us clean, and our bodies have been washed with pure water.
Hebrews 7:26-27 For such an high priest became us, who is holy, harmless, undefiled, separate from sinners, and made higher than the heavens; [27] Who needeth not daily, as those high priests, to offer up sacrifice, first for his own sins, and then for the people's: for this he did once, when he offered up himself. (KJV) . . . Jesus is the High Priest that meets ALL our needs. He is holy; He has no fault; He has no sin in Him. He is set apart from sinners and raised above the heavens. He is not like other high priests; he does not need to offer sacrifices every day for His own sins first and then for the sins of the people. He offered ONE SACRIFICE, ONCE AND FOR ALL when He died on the cross.
John 19:30 When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said, It is finished: and he bowed his head, and gave up the ghost. (KJV) Jesus Sacrifice was FINISHED on the cross! He does NOT need to be put to shame in the Catholic mass over and over and over again!
Romans 6:10 For in that he died, he died unto sin once: but in that he liveth, he liveth unto God. (KJV) . . . When Jesus died for us, He died ONCE AND FOR ALL to sin's power. Now He lives, and He lives for God.
1 Peter 3:18 For Christ also hath once suffered for sins, the just for the unjust, that he might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh, but quickened by the Spirit: (KJV) . . . Christ suffered when he died for our sins ONCE FOR ALL. He never sinned, but He died for sinners that He might bring us safely home to God. He suffered physical death, but He was raised to life in the Spirit.
1 Cor. 10:20 But I say, that the things which the Gentiles sacrifice, they sacrifice to devils, and not to God: and I would not that ye should have fellowship with devils. (KJV) . . . I believe that Catholicism is of the devil. It is a cult, practicing and preaching damnable heresies (2 Pet.2:1). Their sacrifices in their mass is offered to demons, NOT to God. Believers should NOT be partners with demons.
Isaiah 8:20 To the law and to the testimony: if they speak not according to this word, it is because there is no light in them. (KJV) . . . The Catholics choose to follow the pope and his laws and his catechism, NOT the Bible. Unless they turn from their wicked ways, God will not have mercy on their souls. But, you say: “I know some Catholics and they are good, moral people. So are some of the people in the Jehovah’s Witnesses, Mormons, etc. etc. Those NOT relying or trusting on God and His Holy Word shall be punished.
The Catholic Mary is of the devil. She is an IDOL to millions!
Personally, it is very difficult for me to think of how the Catholics have perverted the wonderful name of the mother of the Man Jesus.
They call her the “mother of God,” which is absolutely false! The Catholic Mary is NOT in the Bible. God does NOT have a mother! God is eternal, always was and always will be.
They call Mary the “queen of heaven,” that Mary certainly is NOT in the Bible!
They pray to the Catholic Mary. NO where in the Bible does it tell us to pray to Mary. That Mary is NOT in the Bible!
They confess their sins to her. That Mary is NOT in the Bible! Believers are to confess their sins to GOD! (Hosea 5:15; 14:2;1 John 1:9).
They say she was sinless. That opposes the Bible because the Bible tells us ALL have sinned (Rom.3;10, 23) and that would take away from the sinlessness of Jesus since the Bible states only Jesus was sinless. That Mary is NOT in the Bible! ALL people sin, all except Jesus!
They believe Mary never saw physical death. That is NOT true! That Mary is NOT in the Bible! (Heb.9:27). Only two men in the Bible fit in that category, Enoch and Elijah (Gen.5:24; 2 Kings 2:11). IF Mary had been translated or raptured like Enoch and Elijah, God would have surely put that in His Word! No doubt whatsoever! in my mind!
They say that Mary was co-redeemer. That Mary is NOT in the Bible! Nothing is ever said in the Holy Word of God about a co-redeemer! I know this marvelous woman hates the image the Catholics have of her.
Have you ever really looked at a picture of the Catholic Mary? First off, NO one knows what the virgin mother of Jesus looked like! NO ONE! As you look at the Catholic picture of the supposed Mary, what do you see? Do you see any scars of the crucifixion? She did NOT have nails driven in her hands! She did NOT hang on the cross! She did NOT die on the cross! She was NOT co-redeemer with our precious Jesus!
I know that the real Mary, the true Mary of the Bible, shudders at all this horrific blasphemy! Yes! Blasphemy! Catholics are idolaters according to the Bible!
John 8:12 Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life. (KJV) . . . According to the Bible, and according to Jesus, MY Saviour, HE and He alone is the LIGHT of the world! NOT Mary! Mary cannot shed any light on our path! Just Jesus can do that!
The Catholics call Mary the “Queen of Heaven.” But, dear one . . . WHAT does the Bible say about the queen of heaven? It is NOT what the Catholics say, that is for certain! See for yourself!
Jeremiah 7:18 The children gather wood, and the fathers kindle the fire, and the women knead their dough, to make cakes to the queen of heaven, and to pour out drink offerings unto other gods, that they may provoke me to anger. (KJV) The Queen of Heaven was a name for Ishtar (Ashtaroth, Astarte), the Mesopotamian goddess of love and fertility. After the fall of Jerusalem, the refugees from Judah who fled to Egypt continued to worship her (Jer.44:17).
Jeremiah 44:17-19 But we will certainly do whatsoever thing goeth forth out of our own mouth, to burn incense unto the queen of heaven, and to pour out drink offerings unto her, as we have done, we, and our fathers, our kings, and our princes, in the cities of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem: for then had we plenty of victuals, and were well, and saw no evil. [18] But since we left off to burn incense to the queen of heaven, and to pour out drink offerings unto her, we have wanted all things, and have been consumed by the sword and by the famine. [19] And when we burned incense to the queen of heaven, and poured out drink offerings unto her, did we make her cakes to worship her, and pour out drink offerings unto her, without our men? (KJV) . . . Whatever spiritual life was left in the Israelites when they went to Egypt ceased as they sank deep into idolatry.
Jeremiah 44:25 Thus saith the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel, saying; Ye and your wives have both spoken with your mouths, and fulfilled with your hand, saying, We will surely perform our vows that we have vowed, to burn incense to the queen of heaven, and to pour out drink offerings unto her: ye will surely accomplish your vows, and surely perform your vows. (KJV) . . . The Israelites were bound and determined to keep the vows they made to sacrifice to the queen of heaven and pour out offerings to her. That sounds like the Catholics with their idolatrous queen of heaven!!
The queen of heaven is a very ancient AND a very modern pagan religious term that is explained in the Bible as being the worship of the Babylonian goddess (idol) “Ishtar” (Ashtaroth, Astarte). The Israelites were corrupted by this pagan idol, (See: above Scriptures in Jeremiah; Judges 2:13; 10:6; 1 Sam.7:3-4; 12:10; 31:10; 1 Kings 11:4-8; 11:33; 2 Kings 23:13). The Catholics too are corrupted as well by her.
Roman Catholic Blasphemy
Blasphemy is: sacrilege, profanity, taking God’s Name in vain by cursing or vulgarity, irreverence, disrespect, desecration, defilement, etc. But, what is “blasphemy” according to God? It is when man supposedly takes on the attributes of Almighty God and takes worship due God, away from Him.
Catholic priests and leaders take names for themselves that should be reserved ONLY for God. Some things to consider below.
Pontifix Maximus is a pope’s title which means ‘chief bridge maker between Earth and Heaven’. This was a title of the Roman Caesars and Roman Emperors of paganism. Roman Catholics just continue the paganism. Jesus is the ONLY One who can claim this title! (John 14:6; Acts 4:12).
Holy Father is the title popes claim for themselves. “Holy Father” appears just once in the Bible (John 17:11), and it refers to Almighty God to whom Jesus is speaking in His prayer just before His betrayal and crucifixion. It is absolute blasphemy for ANY mere man to use this for himself! NO pope is “holy” let alone father in a spiritual sense! This is actually like calling the pope “God”. Blasphemy!!!
Father is a title that is used by EVERY Catholic priest, and they certainly EXPECT to be called father. NO Catholic priest is anyone’s spiritual father!!! Mat.23:9 And call no man your father upon the earth: for one is your Father, which is in heaven. (KJV) . . . Jesus’ Words!
Monsignor means my lord, and should CLEARLY belong to God, the Lord Jesus Christ alone! This is yet another blasphemous title used by Catholics, although being guilty of blasphemy is denied by them.
Reverend is a title used by MANY Catholics priests AND Protestants ministers. This word appears only once in Scripture and is a title for GOD and God alone! I think that it is blasphemy for any man to accept this title!!! Psalm 111:9 He sent redemption unto his people: he hath commanded his covenant for ever: holy and reverend is his name. (KJV) Holy and reverend is His (God’s) Name!!! It is NOT the title of the pope or some pastor looking for glory!!! ALL glory belongs to God alone!!!!
God himself on earth is a title used by popes and found in various Catholic articles. This is absolute blasphemy when a pope (a sinful man) declares himself to be God Himself. He is saying that he is actually taking Almighty God’s place here on Earth! How ridiculous! How utterly blasphemous!!! The words “God Himself” appear just 4 times in the Bible and my friend . . . and it refers to our Creator God every time, NOT to some honor seeking pope! Only God is our Captain, and with us always, NOT any pope!!! (2 Chron.13:12). Only God created the universe, NOT any pope!!! GOD is the Lord, NOT any man!!! (Isa.45:18). Only God the Father and God the Son can direct our way, NOT any pope!!! (1 Thes.3:11). ONLY Almighty God shall be with men and dwell with them in Heaven, NOT any pope!!! Only God shall be our God in eternity, NOT any pope!!! (Rev.21:3). Think about this if you are Catholic!
Mother of God is an absolutely ridiculous and blasphemous title for the Mary of the Bible! Absolute blasphemy! That dear, special, young lady was the mother of Jesus, the Man! She was NOT the mother of the God part of Jesus. Anyone with any sense at all can understand this. God the Son (JESUS) is eternal just as is God the Father and God the Spirit is eternal!
God the Son has ALWAYS been! John 1:1-3 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. [2] The same was in the beginning with God. [3] All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. (KJV) . . . Jesus created the Universe. Col. 1:16-17 For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him: [17] And he is before all things, and by him all things consist. (KJV) Hebrews 1:1-2 God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets, [2] Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds; (KJV) . . . If the God part of Jesus created the world, all those millions of years ago in eternity past, . . . HOW could the Mary of the Bible give birth about 2000 years ago? Mary was not in existence when the world was created!
GOD has NO mother!!! God the Father has NO mother, God the Spirit has NO mother and God the Son has NO mother. Jesus the Man was born of the Mary of the Bible. God the Son was NOT born of the Mary of the Bible! God the Son had NO mother! God the Son has always been! God the Son is eternal!
Mother of God is an utterly ridiculous and blasphemous title for the Catholic Mary, NOT the true Mary of the Bible! Other blasphemous titles given to the Catholic Mary are: Queen of Heaven; the Gate of Heaven; our life; Mother of Grace; Mother of Mercy and others. Heaven has NO queen! Heaven has only a KING who is Jesus Christ. Christ is the Door to Heaven (John 10:7,9), NOT Mary! Christ Jesus is our Life (John 14:6), NOT Mary. For the Catholic Mary to be able to hear all the Catholic prayers (blasphemous rosary, Mat.6:7), she would have to have omniscient powers that only God has. She does NOT have these powers! ONLY God is all wise, all knowing; NOT Mary or anyone else! Job 34:21 For his eyes are upon the ways of man, and he seeth all his goings. (KJV) The Catholic Mary does NOT have this power!
Only God alone sees the ways of man and hears his sincere prayers. (Deut.31:18; Isa.1:15; John 9:31). Mary CANNOT hear your prayers! Nor can she answer them, nor can she make intercession for you! Only God has that power. Neither can Mary help in your salvation. Just Jesus, and He alone is the Mediator between God and men, NOT Mary (1 Tim 2:5; 1 John 2:1). Mary CANNOT answer prayer!!! Blasphemy!
The Catholic Mary is NOT sinless (Rom.3:10,23). ALL have sinned!! Mary included . . . or God lies! Mary knew this and acknowledged her need for a Saviour. Luke 1:47 And my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour. (KJV) . . . Every prayer to the Catholic Mary is IDOLATRY!!! Catholicism is a cult! Read your Bible and BELIEVE it, do NOT believe the Catholics.
Some Catholic laws that go against God’s Word.
Matthew 15:9 But in vain they do worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men. (KJV)
The Council of Trent (1545-1563) attempted to destroy the progress of the Protestant Reformation by denying every Reformation doctrine, including Scripture alone and grace alone. They wrote 125 “anathemas” (eternal damnation) against Bible believing Christians. Below are a few.
Canon 1. If anyone shall deny that the body and blood together with the soul and divinity of our Lord Jesus Christ, and therefore entire Christ, are truly, and really, and substantially contained in the sacrament of the most holy Eucharist; and shall say that He is only in it as a sign, or in a figure, or virtually -- let him be accursed.
The BIBLE does NOT say ANYTHING about the Catholic "sacrament" of the "eucharist."
Canon 2. If anyone shall say that the substance of the bread and wine remains in the sacrament of the most holy Eucharist, together with the body and blood of our Lord Jesus Christ, and shall deny that wonderful and singular conversion of the whole substance of the bread into the body and the wine into the blood, the outward forms of the bread and wine still remaining, which the Catholic Church calls transubstantiation - - let him be accursed.
The BIBLE does NOT say ANYTHING about the Catholic "sacrament" of the "eucharist."
Canon 6. If any man shall say that Christ, the only begotten Son of God, is not to be adored in the holy sacrament of the Eucharist, even with the open worship of latria, and therefore not to be venerated with any peculiar festal celebrity, nor to be solemnly carried about in processions according to the praiseworthy, and universal rites and customs of the holy Church, and that he is not to be publicly set before the people to be adored, and that his adorers are idolaters -- let him be accursed.
The BIBLE does NOT say ANYTHING about the Catholic "sacrament" of the "eucharist."
Canon 9.If anyone shall say that the ungodly man is justified by faith only so as to understand that nothing else is required that may cooperate to obtain the grace of justification, and that it is in no wise necessary for him to be prepared and disposed by the motion of his own will -- let him be accursed.
The BIBLE states: Romans 5:1 Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ: (KJV) Ephes. 2:8-9 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: [9] Not of works, lest any man should boast. (KJV)
Canon 12.If anyone shall say that justifying faith is nothing else than confidence in the divine mercy pardoning sins for Christ’s sake, or that it is that confidence alone by which we are justified -- let him be accursed.
The BIBLE states: Galatians 2:16 Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified. (KJV)
The Council of Trent has NOT been rejected by modern day Catholicism. ALL modern popes continue to quote it as being authoritive. In the mid 1960’s, the Vatican II council referred to Trent many times, proclaiming its authority and re-affirming Trent. The new Catholic Catechism quotes Trent many times, leading vulnerable souls astray. Matthew 18:6 But whoso shall offend one of these little ones which believe in me, it were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and that he were drowned in the depth of the sea. (KJV) Jesus’ Words! Catholics beware! PLEASE read your Bible.
