No wonder so many RCs are fleeing the vagaries of the RCC for the certainty of Christ's atonement on the cross.

Yeah, they're just banging on the doors of your 70-year-old splinter group.

Petronski, I grew up Roman Catholic, went to Roman Catholic school through 8th grade. Started dating my wife and began attending her Protestant church my junior year of high school. It was there that I finally began to understand the love of Christ. Never quite got it in 8 years of Catholic school and about 5 years as an altar boy.

I blame myself, in part, for that. However, looking back as an adult, I blame the local RCC for not teaching me more about God’s word. What I’m finding out now, is that my situation is not unique.

A few weeks ago in the Protestant church I now attend, the pastor was giving a testimony. He mentioned he was once RCC. He asked if there were any others present that day. As my hand went up, I was amazed to see nearly half of the rest of the congregation raise their hands as well. Out of about 200 present that morning, nearly 100 were former RCC’s.

So, in my estimation, I do believe RC’s are leaving their church as they get acquainted with the truth of God’s word.
