Right now I have lost patience in full with this present Pope.

At the same time What I have read in your posting is that what you have adopted makes you reject the new covenant given to us by the risen Jesus. Grace is what saves us.

Correction: smaller letter “w” for “what”.

..."Grace is what saves us."....

No, faith saves us through grace. This is EXACTLY why Luther broke off from RCC. You must repent and believe Jesus is the Christ. Then Grace will be given for MISTAKES. The Word of God judges us. Jesus said I did not come to judge you, but My Word will judge you. The Word doesn't change. Many today think, "God loves me so I can do what I want and no big deal". The Law is still the Law, but it should be in your heart. If I love my wife, I can't commit adultery and still say I love her. If my wife is out of town and doesn't know where I am, I still can't go messing around thinking she won't ever know. God knows and He cares.

Back to the pope. He claims that sodomy is OK because that's the way they are born. I'm born a heterosexual, but I still cannot have sex outside of holy marriage. The penalty is plain enough in several places in Scripture where even and altar boy should know what God requires. If this man is God's vicar, then their is trouble in heaven. Jesus said you will know them by their fruits. He also said "My sheep hear My voice." he obviously doesn't hear from God and is producing bad fruit.

The problem in the RCC is they are so convinced that the RCC will never fail, they put up with all kinds of error. The references they cite in Mathew are completely misunderstood by Catholics. Peter has nothing to do with being a pope. What Jesus was saying was that Peter was blessed because the Father revealed to him that Jesus was the Christ. This revelation is what the Christian church is based on. It has nothing to do with popes or catechisms or baby baptisms and any one of a dozen other made up traditions in the RCC. If you read the history of the early church, James coordinated missions and church government after Jesus ascended. It was over 300 years before a pagan Roman named Constantine made Christianity forced on people. They didn't repent. They had no change of heart. That had to be RCC or die. That is NOT what Jesus started. The RCC used thuggish tactics for several centuries to force it's power over the people. That's why the Bible says the harlot fornicated with all the kings of the earth. How many other denominations were backed by the kings of Europe? These same principles were used in the Mafia for years.

All I try to do is get RCC's to at least look at their past and see what Revelation says about them. A good movie is "The woman Rides The Beast" for a quick primer. All of it provable historical fact.

IMHO, the world has only a short time longer. Between homosexuality and murder, including aborting babies, the time has to be short. I want as many people to go in the Rapture as possible. To be left here to face the Beast will be unthinkable. You will physically be forced to give up your life by beheading to claim Jesus as savior. They will most likely kill your family in front of you to show they mean business. It makes sense to me to at least check out the dogma the RCC and others are spouting before this terrible day comes. There will be many that will say didn't we prophesy and cast out demons in your name, and He will say He never knew you. The Bible is for Christians. Lost people won't read it. Jesus is warning His people that they must work for Him to produce fruit. Many if not all the Parables speak of the Last Days and what is expected of His followers. We read them and say, Well that certainly doesn't apply to me. Salvation is simple. Jesus did it all. All we have to do is say I will make you Lord of my life. But do we?

Mathew 25 is huge to understand. 5 wise and 5 foolish virgins. Virgins are required to marry the High Priest. A harlot fornicates with other gods. Jesus has washed His Bride in the Word of God. We have been adopted into the Hebrew family of Abraham to receive the same covenant he received for being willing to sacrifice his son. This is the covenant of "faith" that saves us. Our covenant is a new and better covenant with Jesus blood and the Holy Spirit to seal it.

All I ask of Catholics is to at least read what I write and check it out. I am the watchman on the wall sounding the alarm. If you choose to reject it, then it's on you and not me. I will have done the Great Commission.
