Don't pray for me to your gods and mary and your pope or your dead saints!
In my opinion, the catholic church is of Satan and the pope is the antichrist.
Tell you what, while you're at it, why not sprinkle some water on me. I sure that will do as much good as praying for me to the dead gods and people that you are praying to.
In Christ...Alone!
So, you don't believe that Catholics pray to God?
By what authority are you, as a Christian, exempt from following the Biblical instructions found in Luke 2:48?
In my opinion, the catholic church is of Satan and the pope is the antichrist.
Does this make Catholics satanic?

Are you saying that Baptism is not found in the Bible?

You know I must say that I have been in a great many debates on here with my Protestant brothers in Christ. There are a number of Evangelicals with whom I am in complete agreement on every issue except certain differences between Protestantism and Catholicism. They know where I stand and I know where they stand. I have zero doubts that they are true Christians and that their Salvation is assured and I would like to think that they feel the same about me.
However, in all of our debates, I have NEVER seen any of them use the type of rhetoric I see here, because if I did, I would have a very difficult time even being cordial with them on other threads. I've seen people join FR, both Catholic and Protestant, who are so militantly myopic that they soon ostracize themselves even from those who agree with them and I must say that it is pathetic to watch.
And what is the source of this opinion?
Right on, Wiley.
Spurgeon said it well when he said:
“With what indignation must the Lord look down upon that
apostate harlot, called the Romish Church, when, in all her
sanctuaries, there are pictures and images, relics and statues, and poor beguiled beings are even taught to bow before a piece of bread.
I have seen thousands adore the wafer, hundreds bow
before the image of the Virgin, scores at prayer before
a crucifix, and companies of men and women adoring a
rotten bone or a rusty nail, because said to be the relic
of a saint.
Let us, above all, never have any complicity with this
communion of devils, this gathering together of the sons
of Belial: and since our God is a jealous God, let us not
provoke him by any affinity, gentleness, fellowship, or unity with this Mother of Harlots and Abominations of the earth.
Renounce, my brethren, every ceremony which has not
Scripture for its warrant, and every doctrine which is not
established by the plain testimony of the Word of God.”

Have you ever attended a Mass?
What about the letters to the 7 churches mentioned in Revelation? How do you view those?
