I am not making excuses, I am asking specific questions about a blanket statement you made and the writing that you provided to back up your assertions, and you have not answered a single one.
You say that Catholic practices are pagan and sinful because they were used by pagans, yet you will not clarify if you believe that includes temples, lamps, processions, vestments, etc., which were all included in your example. You have also not answered whether or not you believe prayer is legitimate since it was used by pagans.
You have also not given any scriptural support for the end of the old covenant being anywhere other than when Christ proclaimed the new one at the last supper. You also seem to be very fixated on linear time, as though you believe God is constrained by earthly time.
And you have not answered whether or not those saved by accepting Jesus as their Lord and Savior die.
Repeating the same statements and ignoring questions is not a very convincing argument.
Love,
