I responded directly to your claim with a question. I even quoted you. Apparently you can take swipes at Protestants but we shouldn’t respond. Frankly, if you don’t like my criticism of Roman Catholicism, then you and the others should stop with the ceaseless Romish propaganda. And believe it or not, my goal isn’t to debate you, and it certainly isn’t to please you. My goal is to sound the alarm. My goal is to make people think and consider what God has said through His Word, not what Rome says, and not other men.
Rome’s gospel is a damning false gospel. You may never believe me, but I pray someone else will. Based on all the emails I receive, lots of people believe me. Believe it or not, I have received much encouragement for challenging all the propaganda. I’ve heard from a number of people looking for insight into the errors of Rome.
I have never posted a single thread on this website. I don’t use it as a platform to spread my faith. But you and so many others do, and since I know that faith is a false religion, I feel duty-bound to warn others when I can. I care about the souls of men, even people I don’t know. It’s very hard to simply scroll past soul-destroying doctrine and remain silent when I know the truth. I know the truth because I know Him. A believer is supposed to be salt and light to a dead and dying world. He can’t hide the truth under a bushel. I know some person reading these posts could be in his final days on this planet and in dire need of the biblical gospel, not the Roman Catholic gospel. Last days or not, I know many who read this site need Christ, the Jesus Christ of the Bible, not Rome’s Christ.
Thank you for another opportunity to post these links. I hope hundreds of people follow them and listen to these message today. And because of you giving me this opportunity, I pray The Lord directs thousands to this post over the coming months, even years. If even one lurking soul is awakened to the dangers of Rome, my time on Free Republic has been well spent.

Well said and well done! God will reach those He is calling through your posts.
Another sermon by the same name as one previously linked. I highly recommend it to one and all. It’s good for Protestants to have a reminder of what the Reformation was all about and why it was a necessity. When you recall the cold darkness you will appreciate the warmth of light all the more.

“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.” (Revelation 18:4)
Thanx for the links ... I haven’t gone to any yet, but one of my favorite preachers is Lester Rolloff
Again, thanx for the links
Amen to that...
I am pretty certain that no one is forcing you to read the "ceaseless Romish (sic) propaganda", or even to comment on it.
If you have two Bible-believing Protestants disagree about some aspect of Biblical interpretation, how do you tell which is correct?
I'm not saying this in a derisive fashion and, obviously, there are obvious examples of where one can throw something out as being ludicrous.
But when both parties are able to defend their position, are able to show where it is both in immediate context and within the overall context...
Now, of course, the Lutherans can get some guidance from the Smaller and Larger Catechism, the Smalcald Articles, and so forth (not that any of them would be more authoritative than Scripture, but they can provide a framework through which Scriptures are interpreted consistently by Lutherans). And the Presbyterians have the Westminster Confession of Faith, the Westminster Shorter and Larger Catechisms, the Heidelberg Catechism, and so on. Again, not to say that any of these would be more authoritative than Scripture, but they provide a doctrinal framework.
But for somebody who rejects even those documents (as I understand many "Bible-only" folks do), then how do you determine correctness? And how are you certain that you're right and that the other fellow isn't? (Again, excluding the obvious cases...)
