Conversions are for Muslims, Jesus told his followers to create disciples throughout the world—a self-inflicted transformation if you insist on conversion.

He drove home the point that atheism was part of cultural “richness” that the event promotes.

What???????

Hey catholics, if you want a chance to go to heaven then get as far away from the catholic religion as possible. Find the real Jesus, repent and ask for salvation.

Salvation has nothing at all to do with the catholic religion.

And a bang up job of not converting anybody he’s doing, too. No young person on earth would want to be part of PachamamaChurch.

Neither do these bishops. They are wearing the Catholic Church like a skin-suit.

Is it saving souls the priority for every Christian?

Dear Catholics,

Your religion has cancer.

Signed,

I think this development was inevitible and many denominations will die in the onlsaught from Christ’s followers who will see the apostasy for what it is - denying Christ. It is their own members awakened to Christ in the end days who will set fire to many denominations - they represent the spiritual fire that will be unleashed on them.

That’s OK, the LCMS wants to bring young people to Christ; if the Catholic Church doesn’t want ‘em, we do, and so does our Lord who died for them.

It certainly has precious little to do with the college of Cardinals, especially at this point in history.

But, thanks to grace and providence, we will still be here 500 years from now. Don’t ask me how—God will figure it out.

BTW—I just saw the real Jesus. He was in our Church, hanging out under the appearance of Bread waiting for people to drop in.

If you go into most non-Catholic Churches, occasionally you can see bread. And most of them are right that what they have is really bread. Cool.

The left wants to convert our children into something they are not. Meanwhile, the organized church is scared of trying to convert children to Christianity.

We have failed.

In Jesus’ time he had the Pharisees who conspired and ultimately put the Son of Man to death. Today, we have Francis and his house of Pharisees. The Catholic church has become the Whore of Babylon.
