Every Catholic I know believes that the only way to heaven is to accept Jesus Christ as Lord and Saviour. I was taught this from day one by my very conservative Catholic parents, my priests and at catechism. That is what I hear at Mass every Sunday, so keep spouting your ignorance of that which you know absolutely nothing about. I am just as much of a Christian as you are.

You said the only way to heaven is to “accept Jesus Christ as Lord and Saviour.” And Rome teaches there is no salvation apart from participation in the sacraments mediated through its priesthood.

The Bible says, “For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast.” (Ephesians 2:8-9)

So Rome says you have to participate in her ceremonies while Scripture says salvation is by grace, a gift of God.
