Francis Beckwith’s announced return to the Catholic Church has generated an avalanche of invective and revilement from evangelicals.

This is throughout the blogosphere.

So they are willing to admit that their assurance of salvation can be lost by joining the Roman Catholic Church?

Well, I guess that's a start, kinda sorta.

" It is clear that in the minds of many the Catholic Church remains the hated Antichrist."

That's interesting; considerable prophecy says that the antichrist will be a Jew of the tribe of Dan. (i.e. a Merovingian)

I saw an interesting interview on “The Journey Home”, with a former Baptist. She said that after she read the writings of the early church fathers (those that had contact with the apostles), she realized that “she had been robbed”, and regretted that she had lost so much valuable time missing out on Christ in the Holy Eucharist.

She also said that her family and her best friend turned on her and that caused her great anguish; it was painful to watch.

It’s so sad that there is so much animosity between Christians, the only one who gains by this is the devil.

To enter into her communion is to abandon the faith of the Apostles and to jeopardize one’s eternal salvation.

Well, not exactly.

But it is to knowingly accept unbiblical doctrine. It is to exchange the clarity of the words of the Apostles for the words of a biased group, the magisterium.

If the ultimate success is to lead the lost soul to Christ, who am I to criticize which branch of service is joined - if I truly am the servant I claim?
