Mike Gendon is a former RC who was born again and left the Catholic church. He knows whereof he speaks.

there are consequences for refuting Christ's church...I don't pretend to know what they are, but you cannot turn your back on Christ and expect Him to be happy.

If it can be “refuted,” then it can’t possibly be Christ’s church.

“I don’t pretend to know what they are”

I rest my case right here.

If you do ever become born again, terycarl, I am thinking it is gonna be a hard, hard fall to get your attention.

“The dog who barks the loudest is the one that got hit.”

There are times when God doesn’t want you wasting your kind words of truth with closed sinners in an effort to help them. Might sound crazy, but why force a Message upon those lost individuals who absolutely refuse to hear it? There is a time to add words into the mix, yes accurate words when we do.. and then again, God also wants us to preach loud wordless all the time. He wants you and me to live the life, to be His faithful witness all the time.

Yes, it’s important for each of us to hear God’s Word and be led of the Spirit every day.. in being a witness and also verbally giving a witness out for Christ.

In a context of “judging,” Jesus Christ told His followers, “Do not give what is holy to the dogs; nor cast your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn and tear you in pieces” (Matt. 7:6). Sheep, so to speak, feed on their master’s pasture or perhaps on milk, not on each other or on dirty refuse. Spiritual dogs if you will are attracted to really filthy and gross things on the ground. They like what smells rotten. They like to feed on what shouldn’t be fed upon. They like to bite people or other dogs. As it is with spiritual swine who will walk on what’s priceless, holy things are of no value to them.

.
Yes! That makes it likely that you are a catholic, hating The Way, the true worship of Yeshua.

Well, even if you really don't know, history tells us.

It's called the *Inquisition*.
