Before you dismiss this writing as Catholic bashing, FIND OUT whether or not Jesus actually taught people to give adoration to His mother, Mary, and other things that religions claim come from the Holy Bible.
Because I love you with the purest agape love, I do not want to see anyone, especially Catholic priests and nuns remain suppressed and oppressed with indoctrination. If I showed you a yellow Twenty dollar ($20) bill and told you that it was real, you would not believe me. Bit if I made the monetary bill look as genuine as the real thing, you probably would not question it. Teaching a person to accept a set of beliefs uncritically is how indoctrination works.
ALL WORLD WARS HAVE BEEN HOLY WARS and the continuation of the bloody Crusades to reestablish the power of the Papacy—and maintain the ACT OF SUPREMACY and Church of England daughter religion of the Papacy—using Jesuit’ Counter-Reformation “Just War Theory” for world dominance and control of the masses!
The greatest world war has been the spiritual war against the mind, heart and soul of the masses that has been taking place since the fall of mankind.
James 4:1-4 (NLT)
Drawing Close to God
4 What is causing the quarrels and fights among you? Don’t they come from the evil desires at war within you? 2 You want what you don’t have, so you scheme and kill to get it. You are jealous of what others have, but you can’t get it, so you fight and wage war to take it away from them. Yet you don’t have what you want because you don’t ask God for it. 3 And even when you ask, you don’t get it because your motives are all wrong—you want only what will give you pleasure.
4 You adulterers![a] Don’t you realize that friendship with the world makes you an enemy of God? I say it again: If you want to be a friend of the world, you make yourself an enemy of God.

PROTESTANT, ROMAN CATHOLIC, ANGLICAN AND EASTERN ORTHODOX RELIGIONS ARE NOT THE SAME THING AS BEING A CHRISTIAN. Jesus is alive, and is the ONLY head of His universal church (Ephesians 5:23).
God speaks through His Word, Jesus
(John 1:1; John 14:1; Rev. 19:13)—and
the Holy Bible and Holy Spirit teach us and guide us…
John 16:13 (NLT)
"When the Spirit of Truth comes, He will
guide you into all truth. He will not speak on His own but will tell you what
He has heard. He will tell you about the future."
JESUS DID NOT TEACH PEOPLE TO GIVE ADORATION TO HIS MOTHER, MARY.
Matthew 12:47-50 (NLT)
47 Someone told
Jesus, “Your mother and your brothers are outside, and they want to speak to
you.”[a] 48 Jesus asked, “Who is my mother? Who are my brothers?”
49 Then He pointed to His disciples and said, “Look, these are my mother and brothers. 50 Anyone who does the will of my Father in heaven is my brother and sister and mother!”

27 As He was
speaking, a woman in the crowd called out, “God bless your mother—the womb from
which you came, and the breasts that nursed you!” 28 Jesus replied, “But even
more blessed are all who
hear the word of God and put it into practice.”
Even if Mary was "assumed" into heaven, the Holy Bible teaches Not to make an image (statue) of anything in the heavens or on the earth or in the sea.
Exodus 20:1-6 (NIV)
THE FIRST PART OF The Ten Commandments
20 And God spoke all
these words: 2 “I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of Egypt, out of
the land of slavery. 3 “You shall have no other gods before me. 4 “You shall
not make for yourself an image in the form of anything in heaven above or on
the earth beneath or in the waters below. 5 You shall not bow down to them or
worship them; for I, the Lord your God, am a jealous God, punishing the
children for the sin of the parents to the third and fourth generation of those
who hate me, 6 but showing love to a thousand generations of those who love me
and keep my commandments.
*DO
NOT make statues or pray to “supposed
canonized Saints"—pray to God only!
The Apostle Peter and the
other Apostles—as well as Angels would not allow anyone to bow or give
adoration to them as “holy.” They would not allow people to revere them!
Acts 10:25-26
(NIV)
25 As Peter entered
the house, Cornelius met him and fell at his feet in reverence. 26 But Peter
made him get up. “Stand up,” he said, “I am only a man myself.”
Revelation 19:9-10
(NIV)
9 Then the angel said
to me, “Write this: Blessed are those who are invited to the wedding supper of
the Lamb!” And he added, “These are the true words of God.”
Revelation 19:10
(NIV)
10 At this I fell at
his feet to worship him. But he said to me, “Don’t do that! I am a fellow
servant with you and with your brothers and sisters who hold to the testimony
of Jesus. Worship God! For it is the Spirit of prophecy who bears testimony to
Jesus.”
AND CALL NO ONE ON EARTH "FATHER" (Matthew 23:9).

The Catechism Section 891 teaches that, "The Roman Pontiff, head of the college of bishops, enjoys this
infallibility in virtue of his office..." (doctrine that the Pope and
the Magisterium are incapable of error—especially in pronouncing Roman Catholic
dogma). this is a myth.
Jesus did Not teach people
that they were drinking wine that had been magically transformed into His
actual blood (known in Catholicism as transubstantiation—that is a Neo-pagan
ritual)…
JESUS WAS SPEAKING SPIRITUALLY AND SYMBOLICALY about his blood being sacrificed for all mankind (see John 6:56; John 6:59-63).

John 6:59 (NLT)
59 He said these
things while he was teaching in the synagogue in Capernaum.
JESUS' WORDS WERE SYMBOLIC,
SPIRITUAL AND LIFE GIVING!
Catholic, Lutheran and some other churches adulterate the
Bible and when Jesus said, “Anyone who
eats my flesh and drinks my blood remains in me.” Jesus said these things in the
synagogue, as He taught at Capernaum to stir up the scoffers there. Christ knew
that many of His followers were thrill seekers and not serious about believing HE
is the Son of God and that these people were anti-Christ (John 6:66). READ John 6:51-66.
At the Last Supper, Jesus did not turn the wine into His actual blood...That would have been defying His Words in Leviticus 17; Acts 15:20; Acts 15:29; and Acts 21:25.

The Catechism of the
Roman Catholic Church Section 1376 teaches that the wine becomes the actual
blood of Jesus Christ when the priests prays over it—with just the appearance
of wine remaining. But this is a false teaching.
The Apostles did Not teach people that they were drinking Jesus’ actual blood. After Pentecost (Acts 2), the Apostles better understood the Spiritual significance of sharing the "Lord's Supper" as a remembrance of Jesus sacrifice for all mankind.

Luke 22:19-20 (NLT)
19 He took some bread
and gave thanks to God for it. Then he broke it in pieces and gave it to the
disciples, saying, “This is my body, which is given for you. Do this to
remember me.” 20 After supper he took another cup of wine and said, “This cup
is the new covenant between God and His people—an agreement confirmed with my
blood, which is poured out as a sacrifice for you.[a]

* COMMUNION: The
Apostles knew that God does Not change His mind, and that God did Not change
His mind about commanding people to abstain from consuming blood (Leviticus
17). Therefore the Roman Catholic doctrine of “transubstantiation” is a lie and
myth. In the New Testament the Apostles taught people to not consume blood (see
Acts 15:20; Acts 15:29; and Acts 21:25).
Acts 15:20
(New Living Translation • NLT)
20
Instead, we should write and tell them to abstain from eating food offered to
idols, from sexual immorality, from eating the meat of strangled animals, and
from consuming blood.
Acts 15:29 (NLT)
29
You must abstain from eating food offered to idols, from consuming blood or the
meat of strangled animals, and from sexual immorality. If you do this, you will
do well. Farewell.”
Acts 21:25 (NLT)
25 “As for the
Gentile believers, they should do what we already told them in a letter: They
should abstain from eating food offered to idols, from consuming blood or the
meat of strangled animals, and from sexual immorality.”

ALL ABOUT A PERSONAL RELATIONSHIP WITH JESUS CHRIST AS YOUR PERSONAL SAVIOR,

* CONFESSION: You do Not need to go to confession with a
priest and only God can absolve your sins...NOT aNOTHER human being.
James 5:16 (ESV)

Therefore, confess your sins to one another and pray for one another, that you
may be healed. The prayer of a
righteous person has great power as it is working.

9 If we confess our
sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from
all unrighteousness.
PRAYER: IT IS OUR PRAYERS
AND REPENTANCE THAT GOD HEARS, AND THEN HE ALONE GIVES US FORGIVENESS AND
GRACE. GOD ALONE ANSWERS PRAYER!
A pastor is a servant
of Christ to preach God’s Word ONLY from the Holy Bible. Please learn to
live in fellowship with other believers as equals, and remember Jesus is the
ONLY head of His universal church, Not the Pope and Magisterium of the Roman
Catholic Church or any other false religious leaders (2 Corinthians 2:17; 2 Corinthians 11:12-15; 1 Timothy 4:1-3; 2
Timothy 3:6-9; Hebrews 6:4-6).
THE CONTINUATION OF THE CATHOLIC CRUSADES
Corpus Separatum (Latin for "separated body") is a term used to describe the Jerusalem area in the 1947 United Nations Partition Plan for Palestine (State of Israel). According to the plan the city would be placed under International Regime (Not belonging to Israel or Arab Palestinians), conferring it a "Special Status."
The Holy See expressed support for the status of Corpus Separatum. Pope Pius XII was the among the first to make such a proposal in the 1949 encyclical Redemptoris Nostri Cruciatus. This idea was later re-proposed during the papacies of John XXIII, Paul VI and John Paul II.
The transfer of the Israeli capital to Jerusalem is a major problem for the Vatican, which holds multilateral relations in the UN and EU, and has plans for an "international city" in Jerusalem, under the influence of the Roman Catholic Church (READ; Daniel 9:27; 1 Thessalonians 5:3-4; 1 Thessalonians 5:9 and 2 Thessalonians 2).
THE UN AND INTERNATIONAL POWERS ARE PART OF THE COMING GREAT APOSTASY
The United Nations and its predecessor, the League of Nations, has failed God's Holy People, the Jews, and His Holy City, Jerusalem, over and over since 1917.
The Bible has nearly 800 references to Jerusalem- called “the City of our God” (Psalm 48:1-8) Jerusalem is God’s city, the city of Zion, He has invested His name there (Daniel 9:19). Jerusalem is called the city of the Great King (Matthew 5:33-35).
The League of Nations (United Nations) made vows that Jerusalem would be a homeland for the Jews and broke those vows over and over...
The original allotment for Israel was 45,560 square miles, under the League of Nations (the precursor to the United Nations), an area slightly smaller than the state of Pennsylvania. In 1921, to appease the Arabs, King Abdullah I of Saudi Arabia was given Transjordan, which was 77 percent of the territory that had been set aside as a homeland for the Jewish people. Two years after WWII ended, the borders of the Jewish national homeland shrunk even further to 11 percent of the land the League of Nations had mandated it to have.
King Abdullah II of Jordan (Abdullah II ibn al-Hussein; born 30 January 1962) is the reigning king of the Kingdom of Jordan. King Abdullah, whose mother is Princess Muna al-Hussein, is a member of the Hashemite family. King Abdullah II attended St Edmund's School, Hindhead, Surrey in England, before moving on to Eaglebrook School and Deerfield Academy in Deerfield, Massachusetts.
Abdullah II ibn al-Hussein (now King Abdullah II of Jordan) joined the Royal Military Academy Sandhurst in 1980, was commissioned as a Second Lieutenant, and served as a troop commander in the 13th/18th Royal Hussars.
In 1982, King Abdullah II attended Pembroke College at Oxford University where he completed a one-year Special Studies course in Middle Eastern Affairs. In 1987, he attended the JESUIT Edmund A. Walsh School of Foreign Service at Georgetown University in Washington, D.C. Abdullah would later serve in the Jordanian forces and became Major General in May 1998. He ascended the throne on 7 February 1999 upon the death of his father King Hussein of Jordan. The Hashemite Clan is an Arab dynasty, whose original strength stemmed from the network of tribal alliances and blood loyalties in the Hejaz region of Arabia, along the Red Sea.
Al-Qaeda-linked militants continue to kill civilians, organize mass extrajudicial executions, torture people and take them hostage. The goal uniting all Islamic radicals in Syria, for the sake of which they are ready to cruelly destroy everybody, including women and children, is to create a caliphate where Sharia law in its medieval form will govern everyday life. The practical implementation of this can already be seen in some districts controlled by units of the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL). All these orders are forcing modern Syrian society, which has always been characterized by peaceful and respectful coexistence of different ethnic and confessional groups, back to medieval times. However, the bilateral Agreement signed between the Vatican and the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) on February 15, 2000, protects the economic and political interests of the Roman Catholic Church
Throughout the centuries, we have seen antichrists come and go in the form of dictators like Adolf Hitler and Benito Mussolini. Most recently, we have seen Saddam Hussein removed and Gaddafi in Libya. Taking a look at the U.S. Embassy in Iraq, we now see that there is a religious and political system that resembles Babylon the Great and the staging ground of the final Antichrist.

God, the Lord Jesus
Christ and Holy Spirit have been calling people out of the Roman Catholic
Church since the Protestant Reformation, and will do so also during the “last days” of the world...
Revelation 18:4-7 (NLT)
Warning to Escape Babylon’s Judgment
4
Then I heard another voice calling from heaven,
“Come
away from her, my people. Do not take part in her sins, or you will be punished
with her.
5
For her sins are piled as high as heaven, and God remembers her evil deeds. 6
Do to her as she has done to others. Double her penalty for all her evil deeds.
She
brewed a cup of terror for others, so brew twice as much for her. 7 She
glorified herself and lived in luxury, so match it now with torment and sorrow.
She boasted in her heart, ‘I am queen on my throne. I am no helpless widow, and I have no reason to mourn.’
She boasted in her heart, ‘I am queen on my throne. I am no helpless widow, and I have no reason to mourn.’
** The Roman Catholic
Church and those who do Not leave the church when they find out the Truth
will have every reason to mourn.
But those who call upon the name of the Lord will be saved!
If you have not
formally accepted Jesus Christ, please accept the Gift of Salvation by saying
this short prayer: "Dear Jesus,
I repent of my sins and the original sin of mankind, please come into my heart
and change me to trust in you and build my personal relationship with you by
studying your word and applying it to my life to the best of my ability. Thank
you for dying on the cross for the remission of sin. Thank you for conquering
death with your resurrection. I accept you Jesus as my Lord and Savior, please
lead me and guide me. Amen!"
If you have said that
short prayer, I welcome you to the
True Body of Christ (not a religion, sect or denomination). Please
get into a church whose ONLY doctrine is the Holy Bible, and where
the Word of God is taught unadulterated with sound Biblical doctrine to ONLY
worship God (Exodus 20:1-4), and reject the neo-pagan rituals, dogma, and
Tradition(s) of men.
THERE IS NO PERFECT CHURCH IN THE WORLD. On the congregational level, a Non-denominational Bible-based church, Baptist or Methodist church usually provides worship, fellowship and community that most Roman Catholics and Anglicans seek—where Christ is the Only head of the church, not a despot. After all Christianity is all about a personal relationship with Jesus.
25 And let us not neglect our meeting together, as some people do, but encourage one another, especially now that the day of His return is drawing near.
John 8:31-32 (NLT)
31 Jesus said to the people who believed in him, “You are truly my disciples if you remain faithful to my teachings. 32 And you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.”
