I cannot find outside of man's traditions that a priest is the only one that can serve the 'sacraments'... At the death of Christ on the cross that veil in the holy of holies was rent from top to bottom... each individual has direct access to the Heavenly Father from that point forward in Christ. These preacher boys prostituting and playing porn videos, sure do not have 'the' sacraments on their minds... You think their activity is hidden from the Creator, calling themselves 'holy father'... The 'sacraments' they are serving come straight from the devil.
I would remind you what God said would come to pass... Amos 8: 11 Behold, the days come, saith the Lord God, that I will send a famine in the land, not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of the Lord: "
Preachers of all stripes are starving the sheep, while setting up soup kitchens.. for the illegals they get government funding to house.
Message to Protestants: Catholics don't care what you think about the Catholic Church, its beliefs, or its practices.
“I cannot find outside of man’s traditions that a priest is the only one that can serve the ‘sacraments’...”
Sure you can. Christ only chose 12 men, for instance. Acts and St. Paul’s letters make it clear that only some men possessed authority to perform certain functions.
“At the death of Christ on the cross that veil in the holy of holies was rent from top to bottom... each individual has direct access to the Heavenly Father from that point forward in Christ.”
Access, yes. All authority, no. https://www.catholic.com/magazine/online-edition/is-there-a-new-covenant-ministerial-priesthood
“These preacher boys prostituting and playing porn videos, sure do not have ‘the’ sacraments on their minds...”
No, they don’t, but that just means they are sinners - like so many other people. It doesn’t mean they are NOT priests.
“You think their activity is hidden from the Creator, calling themselves ‘holy father’...”
That comment is an ignorant one. Who is “You” in that sentence? There’s not a single Catholic anywhere who thinks what these priests have done is somehow missed by God.
“The ‘sacraments’ they are serving come straight from the devil.”
No, they come straight from Jesus. Jesus founded the Sacraments, not the human priest. That’s why the sacraments of even a sinful priest (and who among human beings isn’t sinful these days?) are still effective for those disposed towards God’s grace. The sacraments are dependent upon God for their power - not sinful men.
“I would remind you what God said would come to pass... Amos 8: 11 Behold, the days come, saith the Lord God, that I will send a famine in the land, not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of the Lord: “”
Which probably already happened in ancient times since that’s connected to verse 14 by the way. One should be careful about assuming Old Testament prophecies are about modern times since most Old Testament prophecies are about Old Testament or about Christ’s time on earth.
“Preachers of all stripes are starving the sheep, while setting up soup kitchens.. for the illegals they get government funding to house.”
That is true. And your post is akin to what they do. You offer up personal interpretations, and even personal exegesis about things you apparently don’t understand. You’re not much better than one of those “starving the sheep, while setting up soup kitchens”.
