Superficially, the rituals in the Catholic Church and the rituals and structure of Islam seem similar to those who are of the “seed scattered on the wayside”. So if you haven’t actually accepted Jesus Christ as your Savior and LORD, and have been filled with the Holy Spirit, it is easy to be fooled into believing the lie.
“Superficially, the rituals in the Catholic Church and the rituals and structure of Islam seem similar..”
Pure, unadulterated nonsense.
The sum, substance, and summit of Catholic belief is the Sacrifice of The Mass. There is nothing like it in any other religion, least of all among Islam.
I have accepted Jesus as my Lord and Savior; the truth, the light, and the way; and the son of God. I am also Catholic. I am also a Christian - though not a good one. A lot of anti Catholic bigotry on this thread. Such good Christians, taking it upon themselves to let God know who is save and who is not.
