I'm have been MORE THAN KIND to you. I gave more of my precious God-given time than you deserve. God says 'tell them once and once more and then leave them'. Your problem is you want catholicism to be what you 'think' it is and what the 'vatican' says it is.... THEY are the ones who used 'honey' to entice you. And you got stung!! Now you are all whiny and liberal to me.

The WORD alone should be something you want....not looking for honey from man!

You are looking for PC - and that's a lying witness! You don't even know what to look for because catholicsm/man has 'it's subjects'..,totally clueless.

You seem to have no Christian charity whatsoever.

You have no idea what Christian charity is...and aren't even a Christian. All you know is the crapola 'man' pours into you. You want to be stroked and fed a bit at a time... with honey words to tickle you ears. Either burn the catechism and read and obey GOD'S WORD ONLY or suffer the consequences. The time is short - but you'd rather use your time - bad mouthing me. You certainly have no idea what a looser mindset that is! You have so much of The Word to renew your 'catholic' mind from. Remember all of this....because you had 'your time' now - it will never come again from me.

Yes, she was married to boy andy. I believe that POS is behind this. Such drama for her swiping a tracker trailer because she is a Kennedy. This is overkill.

Why are you being so mean to yourself? By REFUSING to accept TRUTH - and by ‘playing victim’ with nonsense talk. Stick with the TOPIC and stop being ‘so offended’ by TRUTH - for that is liberalism 101.

What is more uglier than believing man/catechism than BELIEVING GOD’s WORD ALONE? Choose one as you can’t serve two masters. Catholics obviously can’t retain in their mind...who died for them.

it makes me a little sick to my stomach. I should not be forced to partake.

That's your/our ticket not to take part of it.

Bob and Bill, I can bake but seeing you two makes me sick to my stomach. So you will have no guarantee, I won't throw up a bit in the cake mixture. So go somewhere else where what they see doesn't have an effect on them.

But the cowardly reporters have no incentive to make waves as they have no political support, protection or motivation to speak the truth.

Yeah, 'FOR AMERICA' is no motivation for those self-absorbed cowardly wusses.

You took it personal, I didn't make it personal. But you are too far along entrenched in catholicsm to do otherwise.

Someone must have really hurt you a long time ago for you to carry your spirit of unforgiveness to such a huge degree.

HURT ME? Forgive what? You need to switch to reality and stop mind reading because that is one clueless statement. When you have your rude awakening - once you allow yourself to ACCEPT TRUTH - you will see just how idiotic that statement was. Now be a good catholic - and swallow all the crapola the CC dishes. And that's what makes them garbage dumps. Garbage in, barbage out.

Anyone believing 'man'/catechism over God's Word is less than garbage in my eyes.....for they uplift satan as he is against GOD's WORD and has been since the beginning. So catholics are the ones with VENOM - and there is no doubt about it. Catholics take their pope/leaders as 'angels in light' as satan masks himself behind them and catholics are NONE the wiser and REFUSE correction.

'Man made teaching' believers DO consider TRUTH crazy and foolish talk that they don't understand IT.

"The person WITHOUT the Spirit does NOT accept the things that come from the Spirit of God but considers them foolishness, and cannot understand them because they are discerned only through the Spirit.

Focusing on Christ includes obeying His command to “listen to the church.”

First of all, JESUS is THE WORD and why aren't you focusing ONLY on JESUS? What's your attraction to 'man's' words and encouraging others into what is NOT of GOD and using GOD'S Word to commit such an act?

Now, once again and again and again, the vatican/RCC has NOTHING to do with the CHURCH of JESUS! When you start out wrong...EXPECT to end up wrong.

The CHURCH of JESUS is based on HIS WORD alone and NOT on man/evil words. Why are catholics so low minded to think The ALMIGHTY GOD would reduced Himself to 'man's/evil words'. YOU KNOW JESUS IS THE WORD - why so hell bent to IGNORE HIM/THE WORD in favor of 'man's word'?

God IS SPIRIT and HIS WORD is inspired by HIS OWN SPIRIT as those who are HIS CHURCH/His Body...are Spirit filled. For no one who is not born again shall enter the Kingdom of God. It's not rocket science but catholics fail to get the most simplest of things. But so do 'all man made teaching' believers.

Evil did a 'job' on them and it takes them right over the cliff. But that is what deception does - blind those who are easy prey. The puffed up 'religious' cannot accept TRUTH because of their pride. Pride was satan's downfall and it is the downfall of those he deceives as he continues to rebel against God but he couldn't unless he had willing accomplices to do the same - and thru catholicsm, mormonism JW, Islam's and all man made teachings/religions history - he had all his accomplices and they handed it to the next.

Now catholics and all 'man made teaching' believers got themselves caught up in a deceptive web and the the more they 'speak up for what is deception' - the more entangled in the web they get. They are their own worst enemy and are their own downfall for eternity.

There is nothing more tragic than seeing a good person in the natural doing evil's work against God and the good person is unaware of what he is doing because deception teaching has them spiritually blind and it left them spiritually deaf to - because they REFUSE to 'hear Truth' - and when they read it - they don't recognize IT. They developed a rebellious spirit - all by believing 'man' instead of GOD. All on their own accord/free will.

If they were in the Garden of Eve with Adam, Eve and satan - they would be encouraging Adam Eve to 'listen and eat the fruit for did God really say? As it's the same as saying now that 'man made teachings' with 'it's church' is God's. That is where catholicsm, mormonism, JW and all man made teaching 'religions' has it's roots - right from the pit.

Jesus NEVER started a 'religion'/denomination - HE died to bring mankind to FELLOWSHIP with The Father and since it was the sin nature that separated us from God, HE died for our sins/took the penalty of sin for us....so we were free to go to GOD in FELLOWSHIP because of JESUS....something that 'religion/man' CANNOT DO, ALL it can do is DECEIVE one to lead them away from JESUS THE WORD with their 'own words'. So don't ever repeat again - how any 'man made teaching' and 'their churches' is from GOD. Bite your tongue or cut the fingers that want to type it instead....until you are awake and aware of what you are doing and then you will fall to repentance.

It’s all for YOU as I KNOW how MUCH YOU LIKE IT.

Be thankful even though the catholic SOP is being critical when TRUTH is SPOKEN as their daggers point to ‘the messenger’ as they can’t HANDLE the MESSAGE. It’s when ‘catholics’ are under the ‘Vatican kill ‘LUTHER’ spirit. Nothing new under the sun for catholicism...as they hand down ‘their traditions’.

The last time I looked, not bearing false witness against your neighbor is one of the Ten Commandments, and that includes spreading lies about other people and groups.

Well then you fail. Look, again, starting from the 1st commandment. WHY did you jump over IDOLATRY which catholicsm wallows in? Do you get a gold star for DEFENDING Idolatry? for ENABLING perverts who prey on children for well over 50 years - the collection plate is 'protection money' for these perverts. Catholics have dirty hands with supporting the CC as they protected sexual perversion which KILLS the spirit of every young child it has violated. So take the bony finger you are all puffed up about with your 'the last time I looked'.....and stick in the face of 'your men in black dresses' who lead the clueless over the cliff.

and that includes spreading lies about other people and groups. This post of yours is doing that in spades.

In spades? - wait, I only just begun. Look to your church hierarchy - right from the top - on down on those spreading LIES about whatever they need to 'cover' their deception. Catholics embrace lies and spread them daily along with supporting sexual perversion - they are ALL accomplices to it and just as responsible.

The idea that Catholics are not Christians is just preposterous.

For those who choose to embrace deception, I'm sure it seems preposterous.

Having once been a Presbyterian, all I can say is you don’t know what you’re talking about. I became Catholic because it

EVERYONE has a story. I KNOW what I'm talking about as I was 'born into it'. So save your story - no one cares how a 'catholic' fell into the pit.

Save 'your experience', also, for someone else's eyes that is NOT blinded to the 'counterfeit' church. It doesn't work on me nor the many others that left satan and it's pawns in the dust.

I became Catholic because it is the only Church to explain all of the difficult Bible passages in a logical, coherent, consistent manner,

Oh, so what is spiritual/supernatural can be explained by logic. Who told you that? Or did you just assume it? How shameful for a 'denomination jumper' overlook 1 Cor 2:14 "The person without the Spirit does not accept the things that come from the Spirit of God but considers them foolishness, and cannot understand them because they are discerned only through the Spirit .

And UNLESS, one is born again, he cannot enter the Kingdom of God. How difficult is that for you to understand? Did you leave that up to 'your' church to explain that to you, also? Did they tell you why you can't understand/believe? God did and you rejected it - you turned to 'man/evil' instead.

Read the Bible, then read history, including the persecution of the Church during the first 3 centuries. Then, just for good measure, read the Catechism, which is filled with Biblical Truths.

You are late to the party, the CC's history with their smut ridden popes and 'it's history' has been presented here for years. Catholics have blinders on....so don't tell a Christian to read the bible and then 'check out a worldly perverted organization' that is straight from the pit - they don't belong in the same sentence.

The vatican's history should be enough for you to see how 'their history' dates back to Genesis - where evil perverted God's Word to deceive. So you don't get puffed up - mormonism, JW and all man made teachings dates back to it, also. Satan is at the root of them all. You all have the 'same father' - all one family.

In addition, the Catholic Church is the Church Jesus started. What do you think Matthew 16:17-19 is all about?

In addition, catholics are nothing more than garbage dumps. The Vatican pours in their lies/deception and catholics pours it back out. Garbage in, garbage out. That is what makes them 'good catholics'.

Then, just for good measure, read the Catechism, which is filled with Biblical Truths.

Then, just for good measure, here's what I think of 'man's words/their bible/cathechism....I made some chocolate chip cookies for catholics and the chips are dog poop, go ahead and eat it, it won't harm you. Promoting cr*p, they deserve more of it.

I don’t think one can have a more personal relationship with Jesus than to receive Him body, blood, soul, and divinity in Holy Communion. It doesn’t get more personal than that!

There you go, 'thinking catholic'. Think on this, your 'I'm all your's Mary, leader,' is burning in hell for he died without a Savior. Catholics belong to Mary (man), Christians belong to Jesus (God)....and that is what the CC's their long history of idolatry brings them for eternity and that you embrace. And that wasn't enough, the vatican dug him up to HONOR a 'man' who had no Savior.

I’ll say a Rosary for you this evening, and pray your head doesn’t explode when you read this.

Feel all 'religious and smug' typing that? That's the way catholics sign off, it's the 'catholic' SOP. Their time would be better spent on their knees scrubbing a floor - than being in their 'idolatry' mode which digs themselves deeper in the hole while demons do their happy dance while someone repeats vain repetitious words that go no where.

pray your head doesn’t explode when you read this.

Why would you think that? You think you said something powerful of something? You are merely a 'denomination jumper' who is easily deceived and by your post just a mere pup in catholicism....and still 'in training'. Light weight sums it up but puffed up, nonetheless.

The shysters ARE the GOPe! Ann, you are their whore.

If you need a church to have a personal relationship with God, you do not know God or the Bible

What does that have to do with your statement...The faithful are not divided? OR my question...'who you consider the faithful'?

Only Jesus will remove you.

Jesus doesn't go against anyone's free will which is God-given to begin with.

They equate what goes on in a RCC as being Christian and as a result don't seek the Truth.

The result of deception is long lasting. Lots of renewing the mind must take place. I never miss a chance to tell a catholic they aren't Christian. Their popes lie continually about this. Catholicism and Christianity are so far apart there is NOTHING that ties them together. You never hear a Christian referring to themselves as Catholic but Catholics believe they are Christian. (Deception knows no bounds.) They desperately want/need/seek for 'some creditability so they rename themselves. The counterfeit church's 'subjects' seek to rename themselves and 'think' they are apart of Christianity....how pathetic they believe such and how demonic of the Vatican to teach them that but that's what they are about.

I know this is allegorical, but I do believe I've seen threads with stats showing that the majority of RC's that leave their RCC never pursue fellowship with Christians.

And we know from personal experience it is true. They allowed 'the CC poison' to remain in them. I tell them you are merely giving in again to the RCC which wasn't about TRUTH but a lie, the result is the same. They don't like that because they want to know they 'won'. I knew of a woman who left the CC but continued to go to it at times. I told her she's being a hypocrite and your 'fear of man' is greater than 'your love of Jesus'. Approx 5 years later she saw how deep the CC bondage went and knew she ignored advice from her Christian friends. Her hardheadedness she finally admitted to. While she's seeks to help her catholic friends away from the bondage of catholicism, she has a baby**s way of doing it. I told her if you see a train coming, would you tell them to just STOP or tell them to STOP and LOOK. Stopping will have the same result but the looking makes them see what they have hid from. Possibly too painful. Some choose to stay in 'victim' status and we know that is a 'catholic' trait.

I tell them they only win with being filled with the Spirit/having a personal relationship with God. All 'man made teachings' are a destroyer to one's spiritually as it was meant to be. They would be surprised how many former catholics are in a non denominational bible based church.

The faithful are not divided.

Who are the faithful to you?

Those who are faithful/(supernatural faith of God) to God or those who are faithful/(natural faith of man) to man.

They are both distinct and VERY DIFFERENT.

Just another example of RCs resorting to ad hominem attacks in lieu of an actual response.

Yep, they are so predictable they are boring. We know they are 'into repetition'. They same old from the 'deceived'. They will have lots of time to reflect on 'their ways/their choices' when they can't do anything about it. The clueless only learn when it won't do them any good anyway. Their hardheadedness and cold heart towards Truth is their choice.

I can just imagine the layers of spittle on your monitor.

I can just imagine the surprise when you don't even have spittle in your mouth and crying out for a drop of water and no one hears or cares. And you will have LOTS of time to dwell on your own mental state when you BELIEVED 'man' over God and how rebellious you were to those who tried to tell you TRUTH. Dwell on that for that's reality!

'Once a catholic always a catholic' - happy to know that grates on you. AND THIS IS ESPECIALLY FOR YOU!!! You NEED SOMETHING TO WHINE ABOUT AND WHILE LOOKING FOR A DISTRACTION WHEN YOUR HEAR/READ TRUTH - HERE IT IS! ENJOY IT NOW FOR THE TIME IS SHORT!

GOD'S WORD IS THE FINAL AUTHORITY. JESUS IS THE WORD.

It is my deliberate choice to choose Jesus as my Lord and savior.

It is your deliberate choice NOT TO Believe JESUS for JESUS IS THE WORD. You can't accept what 'you want' without accepting and believing in your heart what JESUS says and you already shown you don't.

It is my deliberate prayerful reading of the Word that leads me to conclude that eternal torture is inconsistent with the loving God.

First of all, one doesn't conclude to Truth. You believe it. No one can please God without FAITH. Now you, also, did not take as TRUTH - when Jesus said - "So you will find favor and good repute In the sight of God and man. Trust in the LORD with all your heart And do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him, And He will make your paths straight."

And just another one you failed to believe as TRUTH. "For My thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways My ways, saith the Lord. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are My ways higher than your ways, and My thoughts are higher than your thoughts."

So thinking you can just say you accept Jesus while you have DELIBERATELY chose NOT to believe HIM doesn't work. No one can have themselves in 'man made teachings and think they found a short cut to 'save themselves' while not believing JESUS. You can only serve ONE master. 'Man-made teaching believers choose 'man/evil' to serve. There is ONLY ONE Way and it is NOT your way through 'your conclusion'.

ETERNAL torture is what 'man' chooses for themselves as they do NOT believe Jesus. See how deception works, you end up with exactly what you didn't want. And that's what catholicsm, mormonism, islam, JW, wicca and all 'religions' /man made teachings do. Their followers are deceived and they CANNOT see they are deceived nor do they want Truth and/or they do not even recognize TRUTH as TRUTH. They fight it constantly because of 'their pride'. And they rebel being told that, also. They make themselves unreachable. God says to tell them once and then tell them, again, and then have no use for them. If someone doesn't recognize TRUTH, they have no heart for Truth.

You can want all you want, but you don't get it 'your way' You do it like everyone does who are saved. You have one master and HE IS JESUS. And you BELIEVE what He says by Faith and DO NOT LEAN on your own understanding which is warped with bad teaching to begin with and a human mind trying to understand the supernatural shows an immense amount of pride which catholicism bathes in...pride. So drop it! One needs to be spiritually discerning and that comes with being filled with The Spirit. It's your choice, not God's for It IS FINISHED. Jesus done everything about salvation 2,000 years ago....the ball is in your court. So HE does NOT send anyone anywhere - it's ones own choice on what they believe and/or don't believe. And deception makes those willing to be deceived, deceived. Anyone who believes 'man' over GOD is easy prey for deception.

t is my deliberate prayerful reading of the Word that leads me to conclude ....

Now tells us 'where did Jesus say to deliberately and prayerfully conclude anything? He said the opposite... 'Just BELIEVE HIM' Your 'deliberate and prayerful' might sound 'religious' to you and it is...and it brought you back to where you started, being deceived with 'your conclusion'.

What part of this did you deliberately overlook? The Lord says, "These people worship me with their mouths and honor me with their lips. But their hearts are far from me, and their worship of me is [based on] rules made by humans."

Jesus said 'hear and obey'. So far you haven't heard/believed what HE said and therefore can't obey it. That's your choice, so deliberate prayer means nothing until you RENEW YOUR MIND to the WORD OF GOD and GOD is ALMIGHTY and admit you know you squat but must LEARN from what HE said. HE knows BEST as to HIS WAY. There are no short cuts but ONE WAY no matter 'what you conclude'. It's not your way - IT IS ALL ABOUT JESUS The Word.

And don't think you can have one foot in man made teachings and one foot in the Word of God and arrive at TRUTH. For Jesus said..... "No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other." It's your choice to BELIEVE JESUS, not God's. So NEVER accuse Him of the ways/beliefs/conclusions and sins of man.

The bad news is a larger number will just turn their backs on Christianity.

Why do you believe that? Catholicism has nothing to do with Christianity, so those leaving deception has no idea of Truth and what constituents Christianity as they are totally opposite of each other. I could see them not wanting anything to do with 'religion' which is a good thing. If they seek Truth, they will find it.
