Padre Pio, the guy who was a fake mystic, using acid on his hands to fool people into thinking God was supernaturally giving him the wounds of Christ.
He was a fraud. His opinion of anything doesn’t matter…
Padre Pio is a saint in Heaven.
Martin Luther is burning in Hell.
Pick your poison.
Luther is in Heaven based on God’s Gospel - a Saint.
I am so grateful for how the Father used him to recover the gospel and to expose the fraud of Romanism.
I see you picked poison.
“Even by a conservative reckoning,” pointed out to me by an Augustinian. “Of those 95 Lutheran brother M, we have adapted at least 80 some corrections... why do you not admit that you’re in fact a Catholic at heart?”
He made me surrender a smile. He was a great God fearing man... as so many of the Roman catholic brothers and sisters actually are.
The current pope... has a different vibe entirely.
If the amazing Grace of God is poison to you, if salvation and assurance of salvation is poison to you, I feel deeply sorry that you turned down eternity in the presence of God.
But it is entirely on you ebb. You’ve been educated, exhorted, prayed for, and yet you prefer a failed scapular, useless rituals, and a host of things that can never save.
Stand close.
