Il papa, the *vicar of christ can hammer all day long, but the anvil which is the body of born again believers will never be extinguished, as Christ is the Head of the body and the Chief Cornerstone and the gates of Hell will never prevail against the church.

Revelation 18:1-5
(1)  And after these things I saw another angel come down from heaven, having great power; and the earth was lightened with his glory.
(2)  And he cried mightily with a strong voice, saying, Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird.
(3)  For all nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornication, and the kings of the earth have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth are waxed rich through the abundance of her delicacies.
(4)  And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues.
(5)  For her sins have reached unto heaven, and God hath remembered her iniquities.

*Vicar of Christ refers to the belief that the Pope is Christ’s replacement or representative here on earth, thus the ring kissing, bowing before, etc. This goes against this passage (I usually wouldn’t use this version, but it says the same thing as my King James Bible:

New Jerusalem Bible

I Timothy 2:5-6
5 For there is only one God, and there is only one mediator between God and humanity, himself a human being, Christ Jesus,
6 who offered himself as a ransom for all. This was the witness given at the appointed time,
