You said — It’s a grotesquely distorted presentation of the Word of God, motivated by deceit and hate.

Well, on those two counts... first... anyone can read the Bible for themselves and see that what is given here is not a distorted presentation of the Word of God. In addition to that, I have *no doubt* that very many have heard the *very same* presentation of the Word of God, in many pulpits across this country, in very “Bible-believing churches”...

It only appears to be distorted, when compared to the Catechism of the Catholic Church. And when one looks at which is distorting what..., one always picks the Bible as the final authority.

Secondly..., this sort of thing... which is the presentation of the Word of God, and showing where anyone else or anything else is not teaching what the Bible says — is not something that is motivated by deceit and hate.

It’s something that is motivated by the command of Jesus, which is for all Christians to give a presentation of the Gospel, according to the Scriptures, to all, who are in the world.

That would include those who are in the Catholic Church and those who adhere to the Catholic Catechism, instead of adhering to the Word of God...

And, with someone like Mike Gendron, who grew up in the Catholic Church, learned the Catholic Catechism and knows it inside and out — he is capable of showing where it is in opposition to the Word of God, and so he does so, by giving the Word of God, alongside the Catholic Catechism (and giving the reference paragraph for anyone to see for themselves).

It is a *blessing* to many that they are able to see the Word of God, in opposition to the Catholic Catechism...

The Catholic Church is a Bible-believing Church.
